Attack On Titan Season 2 Episode 1 Summary
Okay, let's talk Attack on Titan Season 2, Episode 1. Remember when we were all hyped? It feels like a lifetime ago!
First off, this wasn't exactly the explosive start we expected, right? No titans chomping down on people left and right. More like...titan farming?
"Beast Titan" Tease? More Like Beast Snooze
Remember the Beast Titan appearing in the end? Creepy monkey titan throwing horses around. It was a cool cliffhanger for a season finale!
Must Read
He mostly yells at Mike Zacharias, who, let's be honest, deserves better. Mike is the real MVP here, trying to stay alive. He should've just thrown some bananas at the Beast Titan. Maybe he would have left!
My unpopular opinion? That scene felt a bit… long. Like they were stretching out the suspense with chewing gums.
Connie's Village: A Mystery Wrapped in Weirdness
Then we jump to Connie. Poor guy's village is deserted! And all the horses are still in the stables. Something fishy's going on.
His mom's chilling in their old home? And someone insists she said 'Welcome home'. Is she even alive? Too many questions and too little answers!
We get it, it's creepy. But did we really need that much screen time for empty houses? Just sayin'.
Squad Levi's Day Out
Meanwhile, Squad Levi is just… chilling. Hanji's doing titan experiments. Levi is being Levi, aka perpetually judging everyone.
They find a titan inside the wall. Inside! Like, how did that even happen? Did it just get lost while renovating?
I appreciate the mystery, but, seriously, where's the action? It feels like we're setting up pieces for a board game.
The Wall's Secrets: Older Than You Think
The wall seems to be ancient. Like, built-before-human-history ancient. My brain hurts just thinking about it.
Someone needs to explain the mechanics. Who builds walls before history is even a thing? Makes zero sense!
Hanji's excited, though. Because she loves titans more than most people like pizza. Which is saying something.
Mikasa Being Mikasa
Mikasa is being protective of Eren. Standard stuff. She's got one facial expression and is always ready to slice some titans, even if they are absent.
Honestly, I sometimes wonder what Eren did to deserve such unwavering loyalty. But hey, who am I to judge?
She's a total badass. Just wish she'd crack a smile once in a while.
A Slow Burn? Or Just Slow?
Overall, the episode was… slow. Like watching paint dry, but the paint is the blood of potential titans.
It's all about building suspense and creating mystery. But, come on! We waited years for this season. Give us some titan-on-human action!
Maybe it's just me, but I think it could have used a bit more "oomph". Still, it sets the stage for a wild ride, right?
The foundation has been laid, secrets revealed, the stage set! Now is the time for Eren to finally go titan-mode! It is a cliffhanger so it will continue next episode. Ready for the madness?
