Easily one of, if not, the best trilogy of episodes from a TV series I have ever seen.
breaking bad s5 episodes 14, 15 and 16
@@xandarosu Try again. The depth of Attack on Titan is unmatched on television, the only comparisons can be found in classic novels like Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment and Conrad's Heart of Darkness
@@insertname485not only that AoT is usually getting reviewbombed by jealous breaking bad fans. It’s ridiculous.
@@RenozableIt happens with every franchise. I’m a huge aot fan but AOT fans are the ones who originally started the review bombing with one piece’s gear 5 episode
@@tsinks2818 that couldn't be more wrong when one piece fans review bombed aot's 1st special before it even came out lmao
AOT is the most rewatchable show of all time. I rewatch it through TH-cam reactions and they NEVER FAIL to give me chills every single time new eyes witness the greatness of this show.
agreed
Chills or crying tbh😭
not just yt reactions I've literally watched the whole show 10 times Upto s3 and the newer stuff like 3 times alr and read the manga 4 times god I love and hate this series so much isayama is an absolute legend
soooo true! i can't even count how many times i've rewatched
Fr I've watched this show a million times
manga readers were left with that cliffhanger at 8:30 for a month lmao it was insanity
if i remember right isnt aot for most part are a monthly issue?, i remember waiting monthly for new chapters back in the day.
Yes, it was just even more insane that THAT SCENE was the final panel of that particular chapter. Waiting a month for what happened after was actually bonkers at the time@@edwardo8404
yep it was@@edwardo8404
@@edwardo8404yeah a new chapter every month
@@edwardo8404it was monthly, yes
Grisha's voice actor in the scene after he kills the family gives one of the greatest performances of all time
I have been waiting 2,000 years for this moment.
"slow like he's in a WWE money in the bank match" that is so insanely accurate LMFAO
I remember watching Gabi blast Eren’s head off and think “Damn what a good episode” thinking that with everything that had happened before it had already been 25 minutes of the show, so that would be the cliffhanger, but it was only the first half of the episode, and the second half just went ham. I couldn’t believe what I was watching. It was crazy.
If you’re confused how the time stuff works, Eren basically sent memories to his father that he later was able to see with the Attack Titan’s power when he kissed Historia, leading him down the path for those memories to be sent in the first place. That’s why Kruger knew Mikasa and Armin, and why the Attack Titan has been claimed to strive for freedom since the beginning. Because Eren influenced it all.
The best part about episode 21 is the music.
It doesn't sound like the Heroes have just achieved a long fought and well-earned victory.
It sounds like the Villan is just getting started.
This guy doesn't have the hype as much as some of the other reactors but I don't mean that in a bad way. Most others don't have the appreciation for this show this guy gets it, he catches most of the the themes and idea that fly over the heads of a lot of other reactors. One of my favorite AoT reaction channels definitely. Can't wait for him to see the finale and he what he thinks of the somewhat controversial ending.
It's funny that after watching these exact 3 episodes, it's basically 100% worth it to rewatch the whole series again and pick up on the minor details that have been scattered throughout from beginning on.
One funny detail for example is that at 20:17 where Grisha is standing in the door frame before leaving, he stares right at future Eren (unfortunately you've cut out that specific scene).
In the very first chapter of the manga, you can see that he does that as well. Standing there and just weirdly staring into nothingness (because we obviously can't see future Eren yet).
But when this scene got animated back in S1E1, even Studio Wit missed out on that and slightly changed that scene and didn't bother about that detail, because at this point in time nobody except for the manga author himself, knew where this story is going to move into. Not even the animating studio themselves.
Also, to explain further how this "Grisha is staring at Eren from the future" works:
The power of the Attack Titan is to see memories from future inheritors, right? But more importantly, the ability is also to be able to show past inheritors your current memories as you like.
So basically, while Eren was inside of Grisha's memories, there are moments where Grisha knew that both Eren and Zeke were there watching him. That's because right in these moments, Eren willingly sent his memories of exactly this moment to Grisha. So you have to imagine that every time Grisha knew that Eren is there with him (for example where he was in that door frame), he saw himself out of a 3rd perspective - through Eren's own eyes. And every time Grisha knew that Zeke was there with him, it was only because Zeke was in the line of sight of Eren as well. So all of that is only possible because Eren could give Grisha glimpses of what he is currently seeing through his own eyes.
That's also how this whole "Eren manipulating his father into killing the royal family" worked out. When Eren spoke directly to Grisha, Grisha saw himself through Eren's eyes but obviously could hear Eren's words, because Eren wanted Grisha to see and hear the memories of this exact moment.
At the end of S3, when Kruger is explaining the founding and attack titans to Grisha, you get a brief glimpse of Eren atop the walls explaining the same things to Kruger. Eren was always the one in control, and that fact was hiding in plain sight, even in S3.
With info/ insight like this, I don’t see how any other anime (or piece of media) can top this. Truly masterful
@@notnotandrewor when he says save mikasa and armin
@@notnotandrew Isn't the shot Eren talking to Grisha? (And that was to show Kruger is saying the same thing to him that Eren is telling the others)
Interesting fact though: We don't actually know that the Attack on Titan's power is to see future inheritors, at least not natively to use it as a base, rather that could be the consequence of the Attack Titan coming in contact with the Founding Titan. In theory, there's no reason it wouldn't have worked with any of the other titans. This is why the royal family has no idea what Grisha is talking about, because Grisha is just reasoning what he knows and he's the only (un)reliable source of info we have. The power of memories is the Founding Titan's power, so whichever titan got to it there's nothing really denying they would've gotten the ability to see the future too, granted Ymir listened to them.
THE GODLY TRILOGY IS BACK. and its crazy i say that, because AOT has 3 of these which is just not okay 😭 all time man, all time.
its ironic the guy wanting nothing more than freedom has the ability to see the future he cant change.
i cant imagine what Eren felt when he saw himself encouraging Grisha to follow the plan while kissing Historia's hand.
such a great show
You nailed it, man.
Eren got destroyed after kissing Historia's hand.
brother i got goosebumps again having watched 4x20 through literally every reactor's eyes lol
Every single time man. It's a GOAT episode and never fails to deliver.
rest of the eps on my channel
First ep was called To you, 2000 years in the future
The reason why he’s able to see Zeke is because he’s seeing the future memories of Eren. He is seeing Zeke through Erens eyes. So when Eren starts talking to him, in his head he is seeing himself being spoken to by Eren. He’s not actually there. And yes you can imagine that’s as mind-fucking as it seems.
20:15 If you go back to season 1 youll see that Grisha is looking at adult Eren, when holding up the key, and not kid Eren. Insane little detail.
"On your feet dad"
The coldest line in Attack on Titan and anime history
Wrong. Eren does not say “on your feet dad” you should go rewatch it
@@arclite95 he does in the dub
@@alb1e eh then all you’ve done is expose yourselves. If you’re gonna quote a famous line you should use the original lines. You do know Eren doesn’t say “I was born into this world” in the English right?
@@arclite95they literally quoted the “famous” line from a version they watched. stop being weird
Dude the dub and the sub have their differences. But in this case, i do prefer that line in the dub more than the one in the sub thats why i used it. Thats probably the only line in the dub i do prefer over the sub across the entire show.@@arclite95
Good point about the IMAX screen. I would pay a looooot of money to be able to watch AoT there.
I saw AOT Season 2 premiere in theaters and it was a vibe. I can’t imagine a S4 theater experience for the ending lol
the word you were looking for when eren got his head blown off was "PERFECTION"
I don't know why this made me laugh so much.😂
it is the best show ever.... these episodes are best argument why... everything about it is brilliant
When u mentioned Bloodborne i finally figured out why i love ur reactions so much 💯
THE HOLY TRINITY EPISODES ❤
I love the T pose eren gives to dominate his bro
JD singing the praises for this show and I'm all here for it. Yes mate.
15:11
There's no floating through time* or space. all we are seeing is from the memories of anyone who had the attack titan. During this scene, Grisha had the attack Titan so we can see what he sees. (seeing it from another view is stuff the founding titan conjures up)
*well ... sort of.
Gosh, we've waited for you to react to this episode for soooo long... From the very first episode - this episode shows how genius this story is!
I love watching reactors see AOT for the first time, it's one of my favourite things to do when I have the chance because it really is the show that just keeps on giving to it's audience. I do remember there was one time though, I was watching this couple and at some point I just had to ask myself why I was still watching them because they were so _negatively_ critical of every little aspect of the series and they even ended up dropping the show in the last stretch because it made them tackle their own biases. It was extremely disappointing. One of their big issues with the show as a whole especially was the wait time for answers, they just had no patience for payoff and it really kind of put into perspective this issue we in this era all have with immediate gratification. It kind of pulled me back and reminded me of when I was a kid watching the tv and how often shows would start over mid season and I remembered being frustrated by that - some shows I never found out the ending to until I was nearly an adult - but I still had it in me to wait. That's just something so many people don't have these days, including me! It took seeing these people actually get _really_ angry over a simple show to put that in perspective for me, and I've started practicing patience again since then.
This ramble is all to say that I really really appreciate Attack on Titan for making the choice to wait - for putting all it's answers at the very end of the show. The story aside, the wait time for the final season was _insane_ for any person who started watching AOT when it first released (2013) even longer if they were reading (2009). I'm kind of glad it happened like that though. It just went to show that the pay off for a little patience can be really worth it and I feel like we all need to learn to _be_ patient again. To trust the process and just soak in the story and see where it takes us.
I also wanted to just say thanks to you for having such a mature and understanding disposition to the series thus far. Your grasp of Japanese media and history, the critical thinking you display, and your willingness to be patient with what you take in (also, all your combat commentary lol) it's a real breath of fresh air after the last AOT reaction I had. Even, AOT aside, I just really appreciate you and you are definitely on of the reactors I'll be coming back to after this series. So, thank you again. I wish you all the success going forward, you absolutely deserve it, and I can't wait to see where you go from here!
thank you for such a lovely comment, I really appreciate it
Oh yeah, I really hate that annoying couple as well
@@JDGoesMovies Thank you for reading it! ❤️
Which couple? Like my comment when u reply so i get notified. Thanks
I’m curious which couple that was! Do tell!
And it’s always been there. Back in season 3, Eren Krueger said “save Mikasa and Armin, and “Who’s memories are those?.” The power of the attack titan has been teased since the beginning. And even the words that Eren Krueger says to Grisha literally came from the memories of Eren. “You started this story.” Actually, Eren did.
Big dawg you put season 3 instead of 4
There is no confusion in the positioning of present, past and future. Everything coincides. If you don’t make sense of something, it’s because you may have forgotten or lost some details. If you have any doubts about something, tell us we’ll try to clarify it. Otherwise you will see that by looking at the anime you will also catch the details that you lost in the first vision. It is normal that the first time you look at it you do not notice the details but you discover them only from the second vision onwards. Attack on titan is to be seen entirely at least twice. 😊😉
Exactly
JD my lad, I'm sorry I ever doubt you, excellent reaction.
Properly awed and gobsmacked by this absolute masterpiece.
I was waiting for this! Great you put all three episodes together in one video/react. Great job!
Best trilogy of episodes in television history
Bro I'm astonished by the way you have of thinking and your thoughts and feelings, loved it!
35:38 Most of my favourite works of fiction all have elements of lovecraftian/cosmic horror. Attack on Titan and Bloodborne are great examples. I've also spotted it in the Dune movies, and in an incredibly underrated gem of a game called Returnal (highly recommend, if you enjoy rogue-lites). The genre is becoming more prevalent and it's amazing.
Witnessing the 'Two Brothers-Memories of the Future-From you 2000 Years Ago' episodes trilogy, both in manga and anime, was the greatest experience in all of fiction to me. Absolute 10/10, beyond peak
Every time I see this scene [10:23] I think of "2001: A Space Odyssey"
Bro just experienced peak TV😂
16:00 Eren was being sarcastic JD
as i said i was anime watcher , til i meet AOT , then i finish it , and rest of anime feels weak , normal , and predicted .... this show is unique , nothing like this ... MASTERPIECE on every aspect .
there is no show ever created yet or will be created for like the next 2000 years, that peaks attack on titan. Nothing comes close, not game of thrones, not harry potter, not star wars, not even breaking bad. There's nothing better then this.
Absolute PEAK!🙏
I just wanna say the way zeke catches eren’s dome piece is a very baseball ass catch
u got me buying the same hoodie !!!
u should showcase more different stuff you wear and where you got them lol
can we appreciate the fact it's DIO trying to convince Koichi that genociding a people by making them infertile is a good idea?
Callback to the end of season 3: if we kill all our enemies beyond the sea, will be finally be free?
exactly what I said, this story surpasses almost any other story from all sorts of media. absolutely top tier these episodes and overall complexity of the story, not to mention the morals and the realism of the story, what's right or wrong.
love ur reactions man
Fun fact: in Ilse's notebook (season 1 OVA) remember that misterious titan who called Ilse "Subjects of Ymir", "Lady Ymir", and then put her body inside a tree hole... That titan was actually thinking about this Ymir, the mother of the Titans, who also have a connection with a tree hole.
In Season 2 ending, that creepy one, you can see all of what's happening now, the King making Ymir's daughters eat her mom's body, you can see the rumbling, the refugees.
Isayama wrote the first episode knowing how it was end
(Just randomly check this video)
I want to comment this:
The plot: “the humanity genocide”
The title of this video:”It’s get better!!!”
😂😂😂that’s so fun to me
36:00 you are damn absolutelly right!!! thats exactly how I reasoned it!!! totally agree!"!
I believe especially from the first episode title and episode 80 or whatever, that everything that happened since ymir got the founding and eren also had it was set in stone.
This three episodes… I Remember reading this manga chapters when they were being released. The chills I got from that last panel when Eren talks to all Eldians were just something else. Attack on Titan will always be my GOAT
lmao that sudden cut at the end
40:38 bro spoke Cartinese💀💀
The soundtrack during the scene with grisha pleading trying to not kill them would be a good souls boss theme
poor Zeke just want his father's love, Grisha never show him that.
if only he shows a bit of love and appreciation, Zeke would be way too powerful. and eldian restoration wouldn't take this long to happen
Episode 20 in my opinion is the best in the entire series. I mean it changes the entire show, it came completely out of nowhere with the reveals, it changes our entire interpretation of 3 characters, and also has lots of emotion in there. I mean this series is worth watching purely just to witness that
We dont have exact numbers, but doing some calculations from the Manga, we can determine that Ymir's Founding Titan was GIGANTIC. Many times bigger than your average titan.
Its estimated that Ymir's Founding Titan was just as tall standing up, as the Rod Reiss Titan was long lying down.
Bloody love this show nothing comes close
That is huge praise for bloodborne 35:46 I'm yet to play that game but I'm definitely playing It now
been waiting on this one!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to watch you react to the rest! What a ride!
i have already posted the rest bro
Amazing episodes, on par with Perfect Game, Hero and Midnight Sun
Everything posted on my channel. Thank me later
Hands down aot greatest show i have seen
12:59 Yes, very perceptive as always. And this is where fans become divided later on in the show. I wonder if you'll like it or hate it at the end. But having to have seen it at this moment, it all boils down to whether or not you appreciated its execution in the finale, I guess...
30:00 S1E1 To You, 2,000 Years From Now (or 2,000 Years in the Future, whichever source you had it)
I share the same love for Bloodborne as well 35:45
i was waiting for these reactions since u were watching season 2 XD
Am trying to explain the manipulation of time and memories so :
Eren manipulated his father by sending a future memories by the attack titan so grisha knows that eren is in front of him and he spiking him and he showed him a memeories from a way future
And thats why eren saw his future by touching historya in the party he saws his future from his dad memories bcz grisha is already have eren’s future memories and thats why kruger knows armin and mikassa in season 3 those are eren yeager momories and thats why the attack titan search for freedom bcz eren always wants an works for being free
Its eren unfluenced it all
Tbh we need to see that eren is the real writer of the show
I wich that you wil see my comment and you wil understand the point
I already like your reaction for this masterpiece 😊
I would love to read an essay from Jon of his overall afterthoughts of the series once it’s had time to sit
I have posted all his reactions already. He posted a video where he rewatched episode one and did a quiz about ever clue you missed in attack on titan which I havent posted yet. Should I post them?
Here we fucking go
Faze Gabi just out here hitting every single shot dead on.
Without a doubt, the best trio of episodes of a television series. I can't wait to watch your next AOT reactions.
PS: By the way, since you've seen the series in its entirety on Patreon, I recommend that you react to several iconic tracks from the AOT soundtrack. Personally I recommend some of the following tracks:
- S1: *Vogel im Käfig* (I personally recommend a TH-cam video made by *kasumi appa* because said video contains the complete track and includes the subtitles, both in the original lyrics (in German) and in its English translation), *ətˈæk 0N tάɪtn* , *cóunter・attàck-m'ænkάɪnd* and *Bauklötze* .
- S2: *YouSeeBIGGIRL/T:T* , *APETITAN* , *2Volt* and *Call of Silence* .
- S3: *Zero Eclipse* , *Before Lights Out* , *0sk* and *Apple Seed* .
- S4-1: *Ashes on The Fire* , *The Other Side of the Sea* and *The Fall of Marley* .
- S4-2: *Footsteps of Doom* and *All of the Freedoms* .
- S4-3: *An Ordinary Day* and *ət'aek till we are Ashes* .
JD looking at an eldritch 200 meter tall abomination made of bones: “is this a good guy?”
For real, though. By far my favourite design across all the series
Thse eps are simply brilliant, tv at it's best for real. Also, i can't just comment something and not point out his face throughout the whole reaction xD
you being amazed and saying the last time you felt that blown away and amazed was through bloodborne's lore is the best part of this video lmao. fucking love that game, best fromsoft soulsborne game man
PUT SOME RESPECT ON HER NAME SHE IS THE MYTH THE LEGEND OPTIC GABIIIII!!!!!
36:26 lowkey u should fr do a stream or gameplay when the elden ring dlc drops, if u want to ofc. That would be hella fun
THANK YOU FOR DOING ALL 3 AT ONCE LMFAO
s/o to listening to all of us begging for these tree ep's in one video hahaha
Does anyone know When's the next ep coming
frrr
now that you've seen the finale, it's important to remember that everything that happens in Aot is soft determinism, it's a difference to hard determinism. Everything is determined while simultaneously Eren's will. We see it when he saved Ramzi the first time they met, it was destined to happen but he also couldn't help himself from wanting to do it, even if it makes him a hypocrite.
27:10 that was REALLY unexpected man))
Hey trust me we were all little lost at first with the jumping back in forth between memories the first watch it was a lot to take in
You should really watch the Blu-Ray versions of these final episodes
So good 😭
YES! 3 IN ONE!!! 😍😍😍
25:26〜
この言葉がこのアニメの全てだ！
If you look closely at the older episodes you see eren from the future chilling around
Now that you have seen this. Go rewatch the season 2 ending theme
in my mind AoT is up there with TVs greats.. The Wire, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, GoT (seasons 1-4). In some ways AoT is even better since the medium allows for so much nuance and creativity that cannot be believably conveyed in film. To my mind, this is one of the greatest stories ever told in moving pictures
There's a really good video essay that goes deep into Eren's character and the deterministic aspect of this universe. It's called "This video will change how you see Eren". I consider it a must-watch , after you finish the anime.
But it's such a bad video that completely misses the point of Eren's character and doesn't even get causation right. He literally argues that Eren wants to kill everyone just because, and he calls this a good character motivation.
@@Bridge2110 respectfully disagree, his video nails his character
@@harshilshah404 Except it doesn't. Even in the ending, which is so bad that multiple fan communities have actually drawn entirely new endings, Eren literally contradicts the video invaderz made. Eren says he doesn't know why he did it, but also that he does know and it was Ymir. It was never because he just wants to. From the very beginning, Eren's character has been all about freedom. That's his defining characteristic. He literally says he will take the freedom of others before they can take his, and that's what the rumbling is. Invaderz video is the most laughable misrepresentation and assassination of a character I've seen.
@@Bridge2110 Simply short, Eren's rumbling came from his desire to explore free barren world where no human exist.
Turns out humanity is alive and worse represented by leaders who wants to genocide Eldian influenced by Marley's propaganda. Because of that, Eren will use the rumbling even if it means doing the same thing that caused his trauma in the first place, both to fullfill his desire and free his friends.
He is both a victim (Colossal Titan destroying the walls allowing titan to enter his home) and perpetrator (Intentionally led the smiling titan to his mother so that the future of gaining rumbling power possible)
@@yup7380 Except the rumbling didn't come from that at all. That is a completely absurd theory that doesn't fit the show at all. Eren has nothing against humanity, except for Marley and the rest wanting to kill the people on Paradis.
If Eren wanted to kill everyone because he just wants no humans to exist, he wouldn't specify in the season 3 finale "enemies". He says "If we kill all our enemies over there, will we finally be free?" He also wouldn't constantly be looking for another way to achieve his goal if he just wanted everyone dead. He also wouldn't break down crying because he doesn't want to do what the situation is forcing him to do.
YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO THE SOUNDTRACKS
BLOODBOOOORNE!!!!!! fav game of all time for me honestly
FuckinG finally holy SHIT! BANGER IS INCOMING
"19, two brothers... Pocko and Marcel, Eren an Zeke, Falco and Colt".....
biggest trilogy that ever existed
Hey John, still waiting on your reaction to the openings
if you want a good essay video on this, look up ''the brilliance of Eren Jaeger''. it is a phenomenal video
