Shingeki no Kyojin/Attack on Titan (Manga Discussion)

The translation for this chapter is really awkward. Bertolt keeps saying "you" when he is clearly talking about himself.

So it seems it is possible for a titan shifter to transfer their mind through their nervous system allowing them to survive having their spine cut. And transfer it to the titan's brain in case their head is destroyed.

When exactly? I've checked, and the translation is pretty accurate…

You are talking about the mind transfer than it was what was reveal in this chapter to have saved Reiner.

Regarding the translation. Bertolt in the crunchyroll translation says that when appeared that they might start whining and begging for mercy again. And that their are cherished friends and really our to kill us. But while he is saying all of this, it is showing him crying back from an earlier chapter. This is clearly suppose to be him talking about himself. So the lines should be that he wanted to check to make sure he wouldn't start "whining and beg for mercy." To see if he could really go through with his choice.

I was talking about the tl.

Hum… We haven't read the same translation then.

Yes I read the legal sources as to support the creators. Speaking of which, do you get crunchyroll where you live? Because if you do and you used the fan translations anyways.....

I don't have Crunchyroll here, no…

Gone nuclear? *thinks back to Pacific Rim*

I completely forgot how the hole in the wall was sealed was pretty similar to how the breach was sealed in Pacific Rim.

I was wrong. I just look again. When Bertolt is talking, while is talking about himself, when says that they might start "whining and begging or mercy again" he is talking about Marco.

It's a bit ambiguous, but I would still say he's talking about himself. =[ Why would he expect them to cry before him and beg for his forgiveness? That's what he did, last time, not them.

Yeah. He wanted to make sure he didn't break down this time.

It seems like he's just decided to do what needs to be done, without any more ado about it. He's found his resolve, which makes him really scary. All this time, we've been dealing with a Bertholdt who hated having to hate people, and was barely able to bring himself to do.

Now he's found his backbone. Who knows what he's capable of now that he's not just gonna run at the first opportunity.

Huh, so I stumbled upon this… It only has a vietnamese translation so far, but damn, the art looks gorgeous. Ô.Ô

It includes a not-yet-broken Mikasa.

Actually, this Tumblr has English translations for Lost Girls as well as the manga adaptation of Wall Sina, Goodbye (same artist, I believe).

That was adorbs and I want to read more of it.

Of course, it may end poorly since this Eren may or may not be a Titan Shifter and thus may legit be dead.

If Hange and Moblit are dead, Erwin's a goner and there's actually a chance that Levi gets offed.

As much as I dislike Bert atm, that (chess) move of his involving Reiner has from me. Emotional turmoil aside, I'm loving the simple but brilliant tactics displayed in the latest chapters. It's enough to satiate my inner nitpicker.

And Reiner's great move in this chapter of simply lying down of his back to prevent anyone from killing him.

Anyway, I doubt Hange died. Isayama hasn't kill anyone important except for Rod and Kenny who were only important in the arc they appeared in.

If he did kill her off then there is likely going to be a fandom uproar.

I haven't seen very few people that dislike Hange if any at all.

I was asking around, and seems like Attack on Titan seems like to some people an apt combination of an anime Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. Would anyone else agree? Also, anyone get to meet the dub actors/actresses or the original seiyuu? I got to meet the Funimation dub actor for Armin during Anime Next. even having a chill conversation about the series with him before the autograph session (having just seen Episode 5 in the sub and having witnessed Armin's gloriously terrifying And I Must Scream moment, asking if they've gotten to that moment, and if they had, had they shortened it or kept it like it was. All he (the dub actor) did was sort of give this wide-eyed look and clenched his throat, either indicating that, yes, he did it recently, and he kinda lost his voice, or he did it, and was somewhat traumatized by the experience, or yes, he did it, and was in a joking mood about it.

I haven't seen The Walking Dead, but I'd say Attack On Titan has basically nothing in common with Game Of Thrones, and I mean it as a compliment towards Ao T.

Maybe it has something in common with the first few books/series, before A So Ia F started valuing shock value more than its own plot and characters. :P

Disagree about A So Ia F caring about shock value. The tv series, maybe, but I haven't watched the last few seasons. Not the books, though. But we can debate that in the proper thread.

All of them are famous for having Anyone Can Die, but A So Ia F hasn't killed that many protagonists (yet), and AOT has never killed a major character.

Oh man. Bertholdt isn't holding back anymore. He's found his own will to fight, and now he's truly a monster. I can't see them getting out of this alive.

Welp. Everything seems pretty hopeless. I wonder how they'll get out of this one. Maybe whatever's in the basement can help?

Uh, so… Monkey Trouble knows baseball. That's a reveal.
