Comments
She doesn't know who Eren is or what type of person he is though. Like, we know Eren giving up would be as alien as him suddenly deciding to flee in terror, but she doesn't, so she's hammering home that he doesn't have the luxury of giving up or turning back. Not when people are sacrificing themselves for his sake.

2022-01-27 05:46:14 +0000 UTCYou are right the speech definetly make sense from her perspektive - I think it just fall flat for me because we as the audience see Eren in a much different light at that point in the show.

2021-02-26 06:59:48 +0000 UTCTo be fair, he became the very thing that they’re fighting, and they’re planning to risk their lives in hopes that Eren can do it, somebody they have no knowledge of prior and to be asked to put their whole faith in a plan while they’re constantly being defeated, I can understand her feelings and why she said what she said.

2021-02-11 07:58:01 +0000 UTCI really disliked that ladies lecture. It's felt like she was talking down to him for no reason. He was already taking it seriously. Besides they weren't just risking their lives for him. Everyone is risking their lives for the future of humanity.

2021-02-11 07:01:15 +0000 UTCYeah, Pacing its all over the place on season 1, it gets better as the series goes on.
Sh3nx
2021-02-11 04:44:17 +0000 UTCFor a while I was trying to listen to how the characters said it, but it wasn't that helpful. I'm going with Jawn from now on
Alex G
2021-02-11 03:21:23 +0000 UTCDefinitely unpopular. I loved the speech and thought it was well written and fit in perfectly in the narrative for the episode and Eren's character.

2021-02-11 02:08:44 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure it is pronounced similar to the French pronunciation, which is close to "John" but more like "Juhn"

2021-02-11 01:58:19 +0000 UTC@Kotryna I haven’t seen any specific ones, I’ve mainly picked up on foreshadowing via comments and noticing it when watching season 1 (having been spoiled on later seasons a bit) If you don’t mind spoilers, searching Attack On Titan foreshadowing on YouTube is probably gonna give good results. I think when I made my comment I was thinking more of the FMAB analysis videos (of which I can recommend plenty)
Nick
2021-02-10 20:59:05 +0000 UTC@Thrak: are there any specific videos you recommend? I would also like to see but don't know where to start!
Kotryna
2021-02-10 20:55:50 +0000 UTC"Jean or John however you pronounce it" LOL this is a run on joke among fans cause different characters in the show pronounce his name very differently lmao. I like the way Armin says it so I go by Jean.
benj
2021-02-10 20:36:42 +0000 UTCI mean other reactors when they post the edited reactions videos on Patreon they would be Vimeo or Steamable links than youtube links. Then when the release it for youtube viewers they would post a even more edited version. Because the algorithms youtube uses to detect copyright when you upload is more strict.

It just be like that zzz
2021-02-10 06:05:59 +0000 UTCEren: I must become a symbol of hope for humanity. Alex: “You’re thinking a little bit too far ahead just.. pick up the rock.” Eren: *Attacks Mikasa*
Itachi The Rouge
2021-02-10 06:02:55 +0000 UTCThat is an unpopular opinion lol I loved her speech to Eren
Itachi The Rouge
2021-02-10 05:57:14 +0000 UTCI would watch it just for the sake of the recap, but you’ll see there’s no reason to post 13B anywhere. Save yourself the editing. No one will care.
Itachi The Rouge
2021-02-10 05:56:33 +0000 UTCIt’s still a very important episode all the same. Nothing but dialog...
Itachi The Rouge
2021-02-10 05:55:08 +0000 UTClove going through the series with you and picking up on all the S teir forshadowing lol
Logan Bradford
2021-02-10 04:43:09 +0000 UTCHaha yeah she's kind of on a high horse there. But I think the important point is that she wants Eren to know people are risking their lives by trusting him and that he should take it seriously. Which he probably already does, but it felt like the lecture drove it home a little bit, maybe especially coming from a senior (?)
Alex G
2021-02-10 04:25:19 +0000 UTCMaybe an unpopular opinion but I really hated the speech by the female soldier when I first saw it and also now :D I just think it does not make sense at all. The soldiers are not giving their life to Eren. They are giving their life to humanity the same way Eren is risking his life by transforming into something he knows nothing about to do something he does not know how. I dont thing there is a great divide (ahm) there ^^ But you are probably right, that it fuled Erens determination nevertheless

2021-02-10 04:13:20 +0000 UTCI personally like this episode, mainly because it feels hopeful at several points, like humanity can actually win. It’s definitely setup and no action, but it does a lot of work with characters, and prepares you for the coming battle. I get why some people think it drags on though.
Nick
2021-02-10 04:02:03 +0000 UTCUpdate: Yeah that makes sense, you can never know what’s perfect to avoid someone taking it down. Also, I love your theorizing about the Titans. It’ll definitely get answered, but it will be a drip feed at first. It makes the big revelations later on very satisfying though When you finish the show, I recommend watching analysis videos that cover the foreshadowing and symbolism. There are so many details for various plot points and characters lol Anyway glad you’re liking the Trost arc!
Nick
2021-02-10 03:55:52 +0000 UTCAnd yeah I've had GREAT experiences with recaps, so I will definitely watch it. If I feel there really is nothing video-wise, I may not post it.
Alex G
2021-02-10 03:22:33 +0000 UTCThankfully I have no problems on Patreon :) YouTube is the real issue. It's not really a big deal because this is just how it's been since the beginning haha. Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood is by far THE BEST because there are 0 hassles. The only issue I had was with "Let it All Out" one of the times it plays in full during the episode.
Alex G
2021-02-10 03:21:53 +0000 UTCOkay but is it a good recap episode? After ATLA and FMAB, I no longer want to skip on recap episodes lol, not if it matches that quality
Nick
2021-02-10 03:21:41 +0000 UTCReally it's just up to the claimant's discretion. We're sort of at their mercy lol. I've seen the semi-transparent displays, and I wonder if that is 100% effective or if we just don't see their multiple failed upload attempts. I suspect that everyone has problems no matter what strategies they use, simply because fair use is a subjective matter.
Alex G
2021-02-10 03:20:28 +0000 UTCYeah that's understandable. I like Pixis speech and his honest (brutal) take on the last big venture against the Titans. But a lot of it is setup for what's to come.
Alex G
2021-02-10 03:18:48 +0000 UTCI don't think I would have remembered it except that I thought it was "Wellman" and I thought that was funny because he always looks very unwell
Alex G
2021-02-10 03:18:06 +0000 UTCdon't watch episode 13B - it's just a recap episode, so watch 12,13,14.... 13B was an end of part 1 recap episode with Youtube takedowns you can try posting on Vimeo or streamable for Patreon users and then a more cut down version for YT for non Patreon users
PS
2021-02-10 03:04:58 +0000 UTCRegarding the YouTube copyright issue: I’ve noticed some reaction channels do various things to combat that, like making the video slightly transparent, or having the video cut away for some short moments but still having the audio play I’ll update after watching the episode btw this is just regarding the copyright/takedown issue
Nick
2021-02-10 03:02:52 +0000 UTCMuch better now when you can just start the next episode, imagine waiting a whole week when it was airing...
jdthebud
2021-02-10 02:47:26 +0000 UTCI'm not sure what the popular consensus is but I strongly dislike this episode. I love Pixis but everything else just draaaags on at a glacial pace, especially with the building anticipation to the battle.
Etsch
2021-02-10 02:40:27 +0000 UTCI'm rewatching the series through your reactions, and it's really cool to hear your thoughts about the themes being presented and what you think might happen in the future. As a side note, I actually never remembered Weilman's name. Better late than never to learn it, I suppose. 😂
Valeri
2021-02-10 02:36:43 +0000 UTCWhat you were saying around the 5 min mark is exactly why I look forward to ur reactions .... this show is truly an emotional ride and its crazy how a show about big nakey giants can make you cry your heart out lol theres some heavy themes and messages and the discourse is what I live for! the music really makes this show.... the song xl tt gave me chills when eren died and the bells chimed with the opera/hymns? and in that moment I understood catholic guilt 😳 also that numb feeling just gets stronger....totally get if you end up spacing out the episodes later on

2021-02-10 02:27:42 +0000 UTCahh really enjoyed some of the insight you brought upon their conversations in this episode. cant wait for the next episode!
Cassia
2021-02-10 02:13:46 +0000 UTCOf course! Nanananana na nananana, nananana na naaaa na na na, nanananana naaa nana nana, nananana nana JAEGER
Alex G
2021-02-10 02:10:21 +0000 UTCDo you say "JAEGER" every time you listen to the OP? Its illegal for one not to when listening to that banger.
