Hope you guys liked that video! What are your guys thoughts on 86? Was it as enjoyable to you like it was for me? We're getting more announcements on April 10th so pray for a season 2 boys!
86-EIGHTY-SIX was easily the best anime of 2021. No other anime was even close (mushoku barely entered in my top 30 😅) After almost 900 anime completed, 86-EIGHTY-SIX is the only anime i gave a perfect 100/100. Enjoy reading the light novel. You won't be disappointed. It gets more amazing with every single volume
Having a feeling this masterpiece wont be coming back at all/any time soon... Thinking I should invest in the light novel. No anime has hooked me this hard, from minute one. And hooked me harder with every single episode. I still choke up every single time i even LISTEN to the last few episodes let alone watch them.
Shows like this and Violet Evergarden are great at showing what it's like for soldiers both during and after conflict. I cherish 86 for how it handled themes and ideas that hit pretty close to home for me.
Glad to another person talk about 86, I honestly believe that this anime is one of the best to vome out in recent years. Minor error on Shin's power. He didnt receive it from when his brother almost killed him, its a genetic bloodline ability of the Nouzen clan from his mother's side. Whether or not his near death being a factor is possible, but ultimately not the cause. It was clued when Anette told Lina of the Para raid origins, that Shin and Shourei's mother had telepathic abilities. The siblings and the family often played around as experiments to see the extent of the communication. Then the war happened and yeah the playful experiments went to hell real fast for progress. Its why in the flashback Shourei was in grief when they could no longer 'hear' or 'feel' their mother's thoughts, being that it became silent. An important aspect of the Para raid that differs from being just a glorified radio, is that it shares the senses. Lena needing an attachment to her Para raid to increase her thought scope of dozens to thousands, her being able to momentarily see through Raiden's left eye at the risk of brain damage as examples.
@@ehe5669 yea this, the mother did have telepathy but nouzen is known for the combat proficency, kind of like the Ackerman. Hence why Kiriya is a personal knight of Frederica since lots of Nouzen clansman is a knight of the empire
I liked how Fredrica is, while on the surface, loud, childish, and a little obnoxious ('cause she's a child, of course, right), she's actually quite sensible and unusually mature in the moments that matter. Like, the way she considered keeping the Spearhead squadron in the safety of not going to war "trapping them in a cage of pity", is quite interesting. It's quite impressive how someone her age actually has a mature and fundamental understanding of what they feel. Also when she acted like Shin's little sister in that once scene she was pretty cute. For a moment I was like "I'm sorry, but she's cuter than Anya" lol
Glory to the Spearhead Squadron and All Hail the Blood Queen! 86 was one of the best anime I've seen in a long while, and I hated the break, but episode 22 had me in tears from the moment Lena stepped over the Letterboxed aspect. And episode 23 had one of the most cathartic and hard hitting lines in recent memory: "It's been a long time, Handler One."
i hope that in future 86 will become the newgen AOT in manga and anime. Really great Asato Asoto's job with that maturity, seriousness and my beloved romantic line. Also im gonna rewatch in 3rd time (cuz ive already read the whole novel), this anime just giving me so unrelatable emotions. And the big thanks to you for this video.
The soundtrack for 86 was absolutely god-tier in my opinion. Even the orchestra god himself Sawano Hiroyuki composed it, and if that doesn't tell you how good the anime was then I don't know what will. He's single handedly responsible for Attack on Titans success, and why it's so popular. I highly recommend listening to a few of his works, "Voices of the Chord" and his Symphonic Suite "[AoT] Part2-6th:ThanksAT"
86 is still the very best anime I have ever seen, of course that is just my opinion. The novels were amazing too. I genuinely cannot wait for season 2 down the road, as unconfirmed as it is.
For those wondering, Shin mercy shoots his Allie’s because the enemy will take their brains and use them as essentially new computers. Their old ones had a time limit on them, using a brain removes the time limit.
I cried so hard when the photo we wont forget came the ending was just so good imo. But it left me with this emptyness what is next what am i gonna do now i want to see more of this. now days i cant find a good anime to watch that other than classroom of elite II and lycoris recoil .
Really liked how you didn't just blindly praised the anime in your video. The title and it being your AOTY 2021 already says enough. The more neutral or comedic / sarcastic parts of your video gives you more than just the perspective of a superfan. Personally it was a 10/10 to me (which I only gave to 5 other anime out of 400) but only after rewatching it once, during the week before the final episode. Before the rewatch I remembered it as a solid 8/10 in my mind, like I saw it has a lot of potential and some amazing moments but I could also see the issues/ problems one might have. But idk something just clicked in me after starting my rewatch and I was super hooked from the first episode til the end. Scenes I dismissed or didn't even noticed during my first watch suddenly had so much more impact to the point where even Kujou's death (the very first one of their squad) had me in tears.
Yeah I actually agree with you that first time around it was an 8/10. This definitely felt better binging through the whole thing than watching weekly. Also with the factor of delays too.
WT, I've watched this anime multipletimes since it's release. How did i miss the hands coming together in the shape of 86 🤯. Now i gotta go back and cry some more. Good job on this video.
I ALSO wanted them to hold hands!!😂😂😂 That aside, 86 was a really good anime. Everything was beautiful. The music made it feel like a kdrama sheesh!! So cinematic, and relevant to things that happened in the past and even right now if you look closer.🌹 For me personally, as a person living in a third world country, Lena's character was relatable...not really in the 'fighting a war and trying to be good to each other' sense, but in the sense of...she envisions an ideal society where people get equal chances to live and experience life. There's a lot of problems in reality and that vision always looks near impossible, and people telling it to your face don't help...someone can really be caught up in despair over that. BUT that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to do anything, and she finally proves that point when she's able to keep the 5 last 86 members of the Spearhead squadron alive long enough that they can run off and live to fight another day. Even though she didn't know it. And she also learns to take care of future 86 squads that she commands and be more efficient in battle.⚡️ I'm reminded of our nation's state everyday through the news and what happens around me, and it doesn't help that Africa is still being used as a resource mine by others, where many people are stuck in the mindset of needing aid, and not many are empowered enough to know that they CAN offer something good and build their communitites...because their communities DO need help, but that doesn't mean i can't continue to dream and take the steps to ACTUALLY help my country out, little by little, in the way i am enabled to. This anime reminds me why i make it a point to 'get out of my head' after i dream and actual GO OUT and do stuff. And i know I'm not the only one trying to. And that's good🌹
At first I was kinda disappointed why the robot are insectoid like that. But then I realized it's all about the pilot. They don't want the audience to identify the whole show base don teh Mecha. It's actually a genius move
You also have to give credit to the original author of the novel, they made a very very great novel for the studio wanting to adapt it to the points. Unlike *cough Hollywood cough cough* these day
This anime was AMAZING! It was sooooo good. I need MORE content. The story is great, action is great, the lore is great, everything. The only thing that made it bad, I need more of Lena and Shin. The look on Shin's face when Lena said his name, man that made me smile. He was blushing and smiling and everything man that shit was cute. Waiting for szn 3!!
Absolutely adore this anime. Typed in anime similar to nier automata, this came up first. So i began to watch it and the more i did the deeper i fell in love with it. By the end i didnt want it to finish. The last episode was a masterpiece.
I was watching this weekly as it was coming out and I could see how good the cinematography and music was, I just knew I was missing things and wasn’t getting the full experience, so I stopped halfway through the second part. I went back and watched the whole thing and really took in all the messages and character arcs and saw that it was actually incredible and had me crying a ton
I like how you said they leave the discord server, can’t help but laugh about it. 😂 And i also love and respect how they convey the message without actually telling us, the cinematography is everything, the parallels conveyed beautifully. I can't even tell more because it is beautiful.
I stopped giving anime i watch ratings/rankings a while ago because they got convoluted at some point. I simply judge on how big of an impact an anime gave me, and there's nothing that hit as hard as 86 in my recent memories. Watched it out of curiosity when stumbling across it on Netflix. Damn it blew away all my expectations.
This is one of my most loved and favorite anime ever. No doubt it will be my favorite for along time. Thank God everyone didn't die at the end I would of just stopped watching anime for lonnnng time had to deal with dying mc for tooo long
@@dervakommtvonhinten517 and im crying of laughter because your fucking life is a practical joke, u attention whore; bro really wants to be different and special lmao
dead ass waiting for season two im balling just thinking how theres a small change they will add season two based on the novels and what there is in the novels like the travelling and the world building theres lots more for shin and lena to come in the future and cant wait for whats to come for the future of 86 im hoping for that season two man it has been my favourite anime ever sinced i binge watched it in a day it was quite the emotional roller coaster with the sound tracks and the ending it couldnt of been better unless they added a "season two soon" but it was perfect for the animes ending and not many animes can perfect CGI but i must say the staff have outdone theirself especially with the delay it was a great first season and an anime ill NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER forget it will always have a place in my heart
i'm late, but this is one of the few shows where the cgi not only looks good, but almost feels like it does it better than conventional animation could
Hey just watched your vid and honestly it was summed up so beautifully. I really love this show and it's now my top anime in action/sci-fi along with Fruits basket for the romance. The soundtrack was some of the greatest things I've experienced in my life. Episode 22 came in and left me stunned, hollow, sad, happy and a whole lot which i can't even word out. I really needed this episode as i myself was going through a time and the words Lena said to shin somewhat applied to me as well. The joy i felt when they finally met in ep 23 cannot be described in words. My eyes were literally hurting because of my ugly crying. Honestly i can't even imagine the level of quality we got after countless production issues. The staff loved the show just as much as we did. Anyway sorry for all the rambling i did earlier but i really want your on SHADOWS HOUSE. It's such an underrated gem. Thank you and love from india.
Anybody else get gundam iron blooded orphans vibes from 86? A group of ragtag war fighting kids with a naive female higher up who wants to help them and get to understand them knowing that she comes from a different world
There was a bath scene with anju and on her back was scar from a hot iron, you can see some letters in the scar trough her hair, from the letters we can see some people asumed that in her back was written "Bitchs daughter", based on that we can assume that he was not recognized as superior rase because of her mother and the way he was born or he is only half Superior race.
I felt like 86 was way to heavy handed with its messaging and could have used a lighter touch. Some subtlety and trust that its audience would understand regardless.
Great video, I really liked your sense of humor and you analyzed the show so far pretty well. Personally the first part didn't quite hook me since although it was good I didn't feel too invested in the characters and the way the themes were depicted; but it just got better from there and I'm excited to see where it goes after the anime left off.
commenting this but since you mention u picking up the novels i suppose you already know the questions asked in the vid. so this is for those that still didn't know. the legion cpu are supposed to permanently shut down after 6 yrs of activity. the reason the alba just wouldn't think the threats were serious enough. what they didn't know is that the sentient legion found a way to replace these expiring "cpu"s, by harvesting the most advance neural network that's readily available to them, which are brains. the other one is that alba didn't switch views overnight. there was already discrimination against minority even before the war. remember how shin's family were one of the few that lives in the inner district? its partially because his father was also scientist. in the first place the government passed the dehumanization law in times of desperation because "its the will of the people". iirc when the empire declared war, the republic lost 80% of its land, millions of its forces, there's also food shortage. They blamed the minority of espionage. "if you're colored, you're one of the babarian empire who caused us this misery" -this was most people's mindset then and the government figure that they could restore stability of majority if they shifted the blame on the minority. please read the novels
Jesus Christ. The degree by which you missed the point of that scene is staggering. Let me guess... Gen zed, and symbolism is just too much of a pain to pick up on for you.
Great video, it felt so good after watching the 2 last episode, it was worth the wait. On another note I hope Cyberpunk Edgerunners is in your radar, if not give it a try, maybe it inspire you to make another good video.
Aren’t you kinda misinterpreting shins character tho? Wasn’t his reckless behaviour cause the fact that he didn’t have anything in him, he didn’t have any purpose ever since he killed his brother, that was the only thing that drives him back on season 1 and not just that, he was literally tired of seeing his comrades die and leaving him behind, especially on episode 6, when shin found out that the san magnolia was under attack by the legion and probably made an assumption that Lena died, especially since Lena is a very important person to him since she’s literally the only one who has a memory of his own brother as he can’t even remember him himself. He didn’t care about the discrimination at all since he was used to it, but more likely the fact that he didn’t have any purpose in life and the things that he wanted to look forward to in the future. He has none of those.
I love this anime top 3 hands down, I have watched the last 2 episodes 100 times now 86 out of 86 and I love the way you explain it discord girlfriend lol.
4:36 - 4:40 Nah, you are wrong man...you said he Hits their head so that he couldn't hear their voices of dead... that's not actually true... Let me clear it... Legions are army of Ai...they don't know pain, and only follow the orders given them by their superior with 100%...cuz they are programmed in that way... Now, let's get to point... The reason he Hits their head...that is to be precise....."HE HITS THIER BRAIN" not somewhere else okay?!... you have seen the anime right where shin and his squad battle with "Black Sheeps" to which they have voices and these made Lena go through trauma... it's because they are the special Legion Mecha/Robots have "Human Brain as their Processor" human brains! You get it? It's powdered by Human brains!...and shin shoots his dying or dead comrades on their brain so that after they leave...the legions will collect these Dead human brains so that their Machines will become many times Stronger than normal Ai Robots...and these people's Brain who have been saved by legion will play crucial role in battlefield cuz They are more like intelligent Undead humans who have power to think but Ai Robots don't... Thus imagine if LEGIONS Get the brain of the General then thier forces will be off the sky... and imagine what would happen if they have 1000 of general Brian in their Ai Robots... that's too powerful... aginst the sky lol... that's why shin shoots their Brian .so even if they(legion) comes to collect Brain it will be no use since it's damaged.... Take shin's brother ....they got their brother brain undamaged and he caused nightmare
Ok, c'mon stop with the bulshet of edge lord Shin that was an excuse to start conversation. He had his powers long before brother attack. That's how Para-RAID maid. He simply didn't know yet.
His power was to connect to his family only, that's what started para-raid. but when he almost died to his brother strangling him, now that was the the spark to hear the ghosts and enhance his powers.
I can see what you mean, some details missing from the light novels would make it clear but it focuses on 2 people living in 2 different worlds that end up coming to see the world from the others point of view, Its hard to see as this develops better in the light novels following where the anime leaves off, (anime is light novel 1-3 with there being 11 light novels out with the 12th on the way)
@@DuckyLM guess i need to elaborate. look at the main premise. guys get forced to fight for their oppressors: why dont they fight back (risky option cause of mines) or just run to one of the other countries (even gets mentioned that there are other countries). their reasoning for fighting is plain dumb "well, if we have to die, why not die for our oppressors who treat us like pigs?". the fact that not a single one finds this line of reasoning absolutely moronic is way too unrealistic. also, the plan of the albians is bullshit. why would you waste the soldiers and do it like the romans did aka have others fight your war while getting complacient. 1. why not say "fight for us and once the enemy is defeated become a full citizen" instead of the 5 year bullshit. 2. then you wouldnt have to waste valuable equipment and your most experienced soldiers. they are already down to children, they dont have many 86 left.... 3. they have very advanced technology. is training and sending the people you oppress really the best they could come up with? how about remote controlled units? that way you can train your own albian soldiers and still not risk a single albian life. and you have the 86 to slave away in manufacturing if you really wanna oppress them. although the story makes it look like it was a necessity and the risk of news of their oppression getting out is a huge risk for the country. if the BASE PREMISE is already this dumb, then its hard to enjoy the show.
@@DuckyLM also, no. they are of the same oppinion right from the start. and she never gets punished for her insubordination which is bullshit. if the niece of a chinese general did the mortar thing she would be courtmarshaled and shot.
@@dervakommtvonhinten517about your third point, the alba aren't that developed in terms of technology, especially with their mechs. They didn't have the time to build their mechs, you can see it with the poorly designed juggernauts, in which the 86s can't even see the battlefield properly and the fact that the machines can be destroyed in one shot by a löwe or a grauwolf. They aren't that strong compared to the ameise either
They have no mobility whatsoever, so much so that Shin is the only one capable of rushing with it through the battlefield because he's that experienced
I also cry because of Fido 🥲 and even I thought at the back of my mind that he will be repaired at some sort of miracle. I still cry over him ! And yes , moving forward, he was indeed repaired -.-
Aaannnnddd we did thought the same thing, all of what you just said Mr. 😂 And while listening to this , I was laughing 😂 I'm not the only one who feel those ways.
I also continued the Light Novel and currently waiting for the next volume which is Volume 11. May we deserve season 3 and more seasons to come in the future 💪
agreed this anime really is a beauty i just randomly stumbled upon this masterpiece: th-cam.com/video/fqYFkPeYqoI/w-d-xo.html and decided to give the actual anime a watch and im glad i did because god dammit was it a ride! and it did actually make me cry i mean i was already in a bad mood but still point taken
Hope you guys liked that video! What are your guys thoughts on 86? Was it as enjoyable to you like it was for me? We're getting more announcements on April 10th so pray for a season 2 boys!
The video was great
i dont think there will ever be a season 2 cuz its based on a light novel, and there were only 3 lightnovels created
@@RocSandy 11 volumes existing...
@@nathanielnguyen4859 sorry, it was my mistake. but its clear that the show ended and the LN too
@@RocSandy uhm the light novel is still ongoing tho?
Fun fact 86 topped charts and was 1st on the list over AOT for the full 2 weeks of its return and dusted it by more than 5-9%.
Yeah It was a really unexpected comeback. Being on a hiatus break you'd think traction would die but it very well came back stronger than before.
@@mofubofu7457not only that the last episodes made the wait worth it
Proudly I can say 86 is my favourite anime out of everything I've watched
You should read the Light Novel! It’s so much better!!
Same. My other favorites: Aot, Vinland Saga, Monster, FMAB, Fate/Zero, JJBA, Code Geass, NANA, and Black Lagoon.
@@vividverision Gotta respect that list
Spider style mechs are severely underrated. More realistic than bipedal human-shaped ones and still cool.
Creepy and cool at the same time. This maybe Weird but the Ameise looks kinda cute
We need more 86 appreciation videos like these, this show deserves way more attention than it has
its shit and got enough attention for beeing shit. nice visuals though
@@dervakommtvonhinten517 I don't know what you are smoking but I want some of that

A legit masterpiece...
@@DavidKAnderson yez
86 is perfect, when the 86 day delay happened every second i was waiting for news and then saw the last 3 eps and was so excited
Having a feeling this masterpiece wont be coming back at all/any time soon... Thinking I should invest in the light novel. No anime has hooked me this hard, from minute one. And hooked me harder with every single episode. I still choke up every single time i even LISTEN to the last few episodes let alone watch them.
Shows like this and Violet Evergarden are great at showing what it's like for soldiers both during and after conflict. I cherish 86 for how it handled themes and ideas that hit pretty close to home for me.
A brilliant show. The nuances, parallelism and attention to detail is just mind boggling.
brilliant? the entire base premise doesnt make sense
86 cemented itself as one of my favorite anime of all time. Great video btw! Keep up the quality and I can tell that you will go far.
congrats on watching your first anime
Glad to another person talk about 86, I honestly believe that this anime is one of the best to vome out in recent years.

I was watching this weekly as it was coming out and I could see how good the cinematography and music was, I just knew I was missing things and wasn’t getting the full experience, so I stopped halfway through the second part. I went back and watched the whole thing and really took in all the messages and character arcs and saw that it was actually incredible and had me crying a ton
Best title from 2021 for me. Even win with a second Mushoku Tensei. Great video.
bro this show made me have emotional damage, ill tell ya what def one of my top 3 animes of all time
congrats on watching your third anime
@dervakommtvonhinten517 not my 3rd anime but okay🤷
@@RocSandy i just figured since this made it into your top 3. guess the others were all garbage like NGE xD
@@dervakommtvonhinten517 no I just likes the show
@@dervakommtvonhinten517he anime is that good, it's my favorite and I've watched 90+ anime
I like how you said they leave the discord server, can’t help but laugh about it. 😂
And i also love and respect how they convey the message without actually telling us, the cinematography is everything, the parallels conveyed beautifully. I can't even tell more because it is beautiful.
Anju is half alba. Her mom's a colorata.
First time ive cried watching an anime
I stopped giving anime i watch ratings/rankings a while ago because they got convoluted at some point. I simply judge on how big of an impact an anime gave me, and there's nothing that hit as hard as 86 in my recent memories. Watched it out of curiosity when stumbling across it on Netflix. Damn it blew away all my expectations.
This was the masterpiece in my life I also am reading the novel because I want more of it
Hiroyuki Sawano is goated with the sauce
You reminded me of how GOOD 86 was! Great job on the vid!
I want to have season 3 because it's get spicy volume 4 to 10
This is one of my most loved and favorite anime ever. No doubt it will be my favorite for along time.
Thank God everyone didn't die at the end I would of just stopped watching anime for lonnnng time had to deal with dying mc for tooo long
It did so good that the author herself even cried
Ikr. A1 did a great work
she cried of laughter cause she couldnt believe how people could take this practical joke of hers seriuosly
@@dervakommtvonhinten517 and im crying of laughter because your fucking life is a practical joke, u attention whore; bro really wants to be different and special lmao
I love this show! I also finished all the novels as well.
You need to put spoilers in the beginning, especially if this is a review for anyone who hasnt seen it. There's too many scenes from the ending...
100% my favorite work of fiction of all time. The LN’s are amazing.
leina knew the machines were pioleted by the 86 the entire show,
One video on the channel and it's a banger
This anime made me go and read the novel and bought a vladilena milize figuart
Lol
dead ass waiting for season two im balling just thinking how theres a small change they will add season two based on the novels and what there is in the novels like the travelling and the world building theres lots more for shin and lena to come in the future and cant wait for whats to come for the future of 86 im hoping for that season two man it has been my favourite anime ever sinced i binge watched it in a day it was quite the emotional roller coaster with the sound tracks and the ending it couldnt of been better unless they added a "season two soon" but it was perfect for the animes ending and not many animes can perfect CGI but i must say the staff have outdone theirself especially with the delay it was a great first season and an anime ill NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER forget it will always have a place in my heart
i'm late, but this is one of the few shows where the cgi not only looks good, but almost feels like it does it better than conventional animation could
Is a Master piece ❤️
It is great and topped my expectations. It is well written and very moving.
86 is an amazing anime, one of my personal favorites
Hey just watched your vid and honestly it was summed up so beautifully. I really love this show and it's now my top anime in action/sci-fi along with Fruits basket for the romance. The soundtrack was some of the greatest things I've experienced in my life. Episode 22 came in and left me stunned, hollow, sad, happy and a whole lot which i can't even word out. I really needed this episode as i myself was going through a time and the words Lena said to shin somewhat applied to me as well. The joy i felt when they finally met in ep 23 cannot be described in words. My eyes were literally hurting because of my ugly crying. Honestly i can't even imagine the level of quality we got after countless production issues. The staff loved the show just as much as we did. Anyway sorry for all the rambling i did earlier but i really want your on SHADOWS HOUSE. It's such an underrated gem. Thank you and love from india.
Glory to the spearhead squadron!
86 knocked it out of the park.
Anybody else get gundam iron blooded orphans vibes from 86? A group of ragtag war fighting kids with a naive female higher up who wants to help them and get to understand them knowing that she comes from a different world
I enjoyed this. its really helping me structure my own video I'm trying to make in where I dissect more nuances and themes within the story.
There was a bath scene with anju and on her back was scar from a hot iron, you can see some letters in the scar trough her hair, from the letters we can see some people asumed that in her back was written "Bitchs daughter", based on that we can assume that he was not recognized as superior rase because of her mother and the way he was born or he is only half Superior race.
Great review!!!
I never watched past part 1. Seemed like a good place to leave off i guess. Going to have to go back now. Thanks 😊
"Lazy Discord moderator" y'know thats strangely accurate
86 is awesome.
I felt like 86 was way to heavy handed with its messaging and could have used a lighter touch. Some subtlety and trust that its audience would understand regardless.
86 is by far my fav out of everything thing i have watched, i just wish they would make a season 3 i mean there still at war with the legion right
86 God tier show..
Great video, I really liked your sense of humor and you analyzed the show so far pretty well. Personally the first part didn't quite hook me since although it was good I didn't feel too invested in the characters and the way the themes were depicted; but it just got better from there and I'm excited to see where it goes after the anime left off.
i need season 3
Great video
commenting this but since you mention u picking up the novels i suppose you already know the questions asked in the vid. so this is for those that still didn't know.
the legion cpu are supposed to permanently shut down after 6 yrs of activity. the reason the alba just wouldn't think the threats were serious enough. what they didn't know is that the sentient legion found a way to replace these expiring "cpu"s, by harvesting the most advance neural network that's readily available to them, which are brains.
the other one is that alba didn't switch views overnight. there was already discrimination against minority even before the war. remember how shin's family were one of the few that lives in the inner district? its partially because his father was also scientist. in the first place the government passed the dehumanization law in times of desperation because "its the will of the people".
iirc when the empire declared war, the republic lost 80% of its land, millions of its forces, there's also food shortage. They blamed the minority of espionage. "if you're colored, you're one of the babarian empire who caused us this misery" -this was most people's mindset then and the government figure that they could restore stability of majority if they shifted the blame on the minority.
please read the novels
12:30 premarital hand holding? Not in my anime
Jesus Christ. The degree by which you missed the point of that scene is staggering. Let me guess... Gen zed, and symbolism is just too much of a pain to pick up on for you.
@@allenharper2928 🤦🏽♂️bet ur fun at party's it was a joke calm down
@@allenharper2928 Nine months and this comment is still here. You really meant that shi 😂
Uh, dude... She got DEMOTED for her stunt with the mortars.
Great video, it felt so good after watching the 2 last episode, it was worth the wait. On another note I hope Cyberpunk Edgerunners is in your radar, if not give it a try, maybe it inspire you to make another good video.
This is the second and last video this dude has and fucked off. Much respect. Good show
God im glad im not the only one who cried over an anime bot
Aren’t you kinda misinterpreting shins character tho? Wasn’t his reckless behaviour cause the fact that he didn’t have anything in him, he didn’t have any purpose ever since he killed his brother, that was the only thing that drives him back on season 1 and not just that, he was literally tired of seeing his comrades die and leaving him behind, especially on episode 6, when shin found out that the san magnolia was under attack by the legion and probably made an assumption that Lena died, especially since Lena is a very important person to him since she’s literally the only one who has a memory of his own brother as he can’t even remember him himself. He didn’t care about the discrimination at all since he was used to it, but more likely the fact that he didn’t have any purpose in life and the things that he wanted to look forward to in the future. He has none of those.
I agree
The novels are good imo. Only problem being now I gotta learn japanese for a few weeks...
I love this anime top 3 hands down, I have watched the last 2 episodes 100 times now 86 out of 86 and I love the way you explain it discord girlfriend lol.
If u ever feeling down about yourself, just know that kurena lost to a discord girlfriend.
Wait till seasaon 3 and the great offensive
4:36 - 4:40
Nah, you are wrong man...you said he Hits their head so that he couldn't hear their voices of dead... that's not actually true...
Let me clear it...
Legions are army of Ai...they don't know pain, and only follow the orders given them by their superior with 100%...cuz they are programmed in that way...
Now, let's get to point...
The reason he Hits their head...that is to be precise....."HE HITS THIER BRAIN" not somewhere else okay?!... you have seen the anime right where shin and his squad battle with "Black Sheeps" to which they have voices and these made Lena go through trauma... it's because they are the special Legion Mecha/Robots have "Human Brain as their Processor" human brains! You get it? It's powdered by Human brains!...and shin shoots his dying or dead comrades on their brain so that after they leave...the legions will collect these Dead human brains so that their Machines will become many times Stronger than normal Ai Robots...and these people's Brain who have been saved by legion will play crucial role in battlefield cuz They are more like intelligent Undead humans who have power to think but Ai Robots don't... Thus imagine if LEGIONS Get the brain of the General then thier forces will be off the sky... and imagine what would happen if they have 1000 of general Brian in their Ai Robots... that's too powerful... aginst the sky lol... that's why shin shoots their Brian .so even if they(legion) comes to collect Brain it will be no use since it's damaged....
Take shin's brother ....they got their brother brain undamaged and he caused nightmare
Ok, c'mon stop with the bulshet of edge lord Shin that was an excuse to start conversation. He had his powers long before brother attack. That's how Para-RAID maid. He simply didn't know yet.
His power was to connect to his family only, that's what started para-raid. but when he almost died to his brother strangling him, now that was the the spark to hear the ghosts and enhance his powers.
They take the brains of humans to live longer and become smarter
Where did you find the light novel? I've been looking for them since I finished the shown but I couldn't find them anywhere
I should of wtached this anime sooner
The discord metaphors -_-;
Hey all … 2023 here… Attack on Titan is still not finished. There’s another “final season”
Yeah. Thanks
I agree. AOTY 2021.
Has there been any news on a new season ??
No yet 😢
Dude why you stoped maching videos ?
Wayy late only wanted to add my trash take on this series;
Lilas > Avid
I love 86. But I never liked the Discord E-Girl stick sucks.
LF> Hot Discord GF
this anime had lots of potential, but the entire base premise of the show made ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE!
I can see what you mean, some details missing from the light novels would make it clear but it focuses on 2 people living in 2 different worlds that end up coming to see the world from the others point of view, Its hard to see as this develops better in the light novels following where the anime leaves off, (anime is light novel 1-3 with there being 11 light novels out with the 12th on the way)
@@DuckyLM guess i need to elaborate. look at the main premise. guys get forced to fight for their oppressors:
why dont they fight back (risky option cause of mines) or just run to one of the other countries (even gets mentioned that there are other countries). their reasoning for fighting is plain dumb "well, if we have to die, why not die for our oppressors who treat us like pigs?". the fact that not a single one finds this line of reasoning absolutely moronic is way too unrealistic.
also, the plan of the albians is bullshit. why would you waste the soldiers and do it like the romans did aka have others fight your war while getting complacient.
1. why not say "fight for us and once the enemy is defeated become a full citizen" instead of the 5 year bullshit.
2. then you wouldnt have to waste valuable equipment and your most experienced soldiers. they are already down to children, they dont have many 86 left....
3. they have very advanced technology. is training and sending the people you oppress really the best they could come up with? how about remote controlled units? that way you can train your own albian soldiers and still not risk a single albian life. and you have the 86 to slave away in manufacturing if you really wanna oppress them. although the story makes it look like it was a necessity and the risk of news of their oppression getting out is a huge risk for the country.
if the BASE PREMISE is already this dumb, then its hard to enjoy the show.
@@DuckyLM also, no. they are of the same oppinion right from the start. and she never gets punished for her insubordination which is bullshit. if the niece of a chinese general did the mortar thing she would be courtmarshaled and shot.
@@dervakommtvonhinten517about your third point, the alba aren't that developed in terms of technology, especially with their mechs. They didn't have the time to build their mechs, you can see it with the poorly designed juggernauts, in which the 86s can't even see the battlefield properly and the fact that the machines can be destroyed in one shot by a löwe or a grauwolf. They aren't that strong compared to the ameise either
They have no mobility whatsoever, so much so that Shin is the only one capable of rushing with it through the battlefield because he's that experienced
I also cry because of Fido 🥲 and even I thought at the back of my mind that he will be repaired at some sort of miracle. I still cry over him ! And yes , moving forward, he was indeed repaired -.-
Aaannnnddd we did thought the same thing, all of what you just said Mr. 😂 And while listening to this , I was laughing 😂 I'm not the only one who feel those ways.
I also continued the Light Novel and currently waiting for the next volume which is Volume 11. May we deserve season 3 and more seasons to come in the future 💪
agreed this anime really is a beauty i just randomly stumbled upon this masterpiece: th-cam.com/video/fqYFkPeYqoI/w-d-xo.html and decided to give the actual anime a watch and im glad i did because god dammit was it a ride!
and it did actually make me cry i mean i was already in a bad mood but still point taken
