What Reiner expected to happen Reiner: Yo, m'aboy Eren, I'm the Armored Titan and and my homie here is the Colossal Titan, you should come with us to our hometown, it's gon' be lit. Eren: You guys are titans? That's soo cool. Just let me pack up my things and we'll be right on our way.
Fun Fact: When Mikasa attacks Reiner, he gets blood all over him and his right hand is cut off (though, unlike in manga, his hand is not seen). When he rams Mikasa off the wall, his right hand is shown undamaged and there is no blood on him except where her blade protrudes from his left hand. When he and Bertholdt start to transform, he is bloody again and missing his right hand. This error is corrected in the blu-ray release 🤔🤔🤔
35:55 That “speed” moment with Mikasa was purely situational. She wasn’t miraculously moving faster; she built up more momentum than the elites with more precise use of her cables in conjunction with her gas. The efficacy of ODM gear simply comes down to skill and experience. Levi “moves faster” for the same reason; positioning and control define the limits of the gear. Where are you placing your anchors? What are you doing with your body to affect your angle and direction? It’s why having the precision to slice a titan’s nape requires so much training in the first place, and why casualties are always so high in spite of it. Think of it like using a gun; why do you think it’s considered impressive when a trained soldier fires with perfect accuracy and reloads in a couple seconds? Just what is it that you believe they’re doing differently with the exact same tool as an untrained civilian? The same logistics apply to ODM gear, but to an even more complex degree.
Best AoT episode for me. Everything about it is perfect. The direction, animation, music, dialogue, plot twist. There are other episodes down the road which are also 10/10 masterpieces, but this will always take the cake for me.
@@vinegan6400「何を言っているんだライナー」 "nani wo itteirunda, rainaa" nani = what wo = object marker itteiru = saying nda = adds emotion/surprise/disbelief rainaa = Reiner So essentially, "What are you saying Reiner?!", "What are you talking about, Reiner?!" - there's no "why" or "telling him" aspect.
@vinegan6400 that's wrong. The point is that Bert was still playing along. He wasn't revealing information. 'Why are you telling him' is an admission that they are Titans. What he said was just like WTF are you saying?
@0ptriX a bit wrong but close. Iru is the present tense modifier for a verb. Da is the informal version of desu. Itteirunda is like 'are saying'. What are you saying, Reiner? I can't explain why it's irun instead of iru. It's some kind of grammar thing. I don't study grammar I just know that's how they do it :) I think maybe either way is fine? The N is just more emphasis on present tense? That it's now? Maybe? So maybe you were correct all along. But that is a weird way to say it.
The translation always irks me a bit. You guys read it the way the subtitles read it: Why are you telling him, Reiner? Which is a dead giveaway. But in Japanese, Bertholdt instead says "What are you saying Reiner??" Which is far more ambiguous and makes way more sense.
love your breakdown of this iconic episode! Definitely your analysis surpassed mine when I saw this and other reactors ive seen. This is one of the best episodes of AOT, Season 3 and Season 4 has some other Iconic episodes to look forward too as well.
Just found this - seems like this'll be quality content in the later seasons ;D Regarding travelling faster - It's like a normal person on a snowboard vs a pro. Pro goes faster. Snowboard is the same.
The Reiner monologue was what stuck with me the most as well on my first watch, it was a pleasure to see you put an emphasis on it as well. Great reaction, analysis, and speculation all around!
Regarding Mikasa and Levi being "faster" with ODM gear as compared to the other elite soldiers, I see it like professional car racers or motorists....they could all be the same or use the same cars/motorcycle model with the same speed but if you race against someone more experienced, they will be faster, either cuz they know the terrain better, or know best how to use the equipment. It also comes with experience. ODM gear requires a lot of leg and core strength, so one has gotta be strong enough to carry and shift their own body weight while also staying in balance. Levi has always had experience with ODM gear before even joining the scouts which, I would presume would be why he has a deeper understanding of ODM gear, and knows how to optimize his movements better. Mikasa is a special case, a rare prodigy.....I won't say anything further there
2x6 is one of the best reveals in anime because they just drop it on your lap. And you are forced to process what you are seeing through your shock. That being said, each season gets better and better.
Another big clue was during the Female Titan fight Armin tells Jean and Reiner to put their hoods up but right before Reiner goes to attack Annie he takes his hood off so she can see his face.
Hey Aidan. I see your point about Mikasa moving faster than others making no sense I thought the same thing at first, but then I thought what can influence the speed of odm gear user can be previously generated momentum, and Mikasa being confident with the gear definitely helps her to do so.
@@nikolabl8154 lol, the OP is an asshole trying to spoil shit for no reason. There's always people like this. And it's not like they wrote this comment as an inside joke meant for viewers to read but instead the comment is talking directly to the reactors. Instead of "Don't give them too much" it should be "Don't give them anything" imo. There's no need for the reactors to get ANY info from the comments 99% of the time. They should solely get their info from the show itself.
To conquer the fear of death, one must believe and put their faith in the conqueror of death: Jesus Christ. 🙏 loving prayers and blessing to you in Jesus name, regardless of your faith, may Yah bless you and guide you.
Annie: *seals herself in crystal indefinitely to avoid giving up their secret*
Reiner: So anyway,
What Reiner expected to happen
Reiner: Yo, m'aboy Eren, I'm the Armored Titan and and my homie here is the Colossal Titan, you should come with us to our hometown, it's gon' be lit.
Eren: You guys are titans? That's soo cool. Just let me pack up my things and we'll be right on our way.
This is the episode that propelled AoT from merely a great anime into one of the best works of fiction in any medium.
We can already see the huge potential this story has!
Never enough of 2x06. Love how both of you were still in denial even after the reveal.
i can watch it forever this episode

This only happened because it had to be censored for television smh.
"Wait, what?"
Perfection!
He looks like Abraham Lincoln.
hahaha

Levi is also small and he doesn't weigh much
Baby that's Abraham Lincoln
Bro looks like Abe Lincoln

I really wish the official subs said "What are you saying, Reiner?" rather than "Why are you telling him, Reiner?"
@@0ptriX yeah that's a poor choice. I usually defend the subtitles but that is just wrong.
I dont know what's more correct since I dont know japanese, but personally I like "why are you telling him" more
@@vinegan6400「何を言っているんだライナー」
"nani wo itteirunda, rainaa"
nani = what
wo = object marker
itteiru = saying
nda = adds emotion/surprise/disbelief
rainaa = Reiner
So essentially, "What are you saying Reiner?!", "What are you talking about, Reiner?!" - there's no "why" or "telling him" aspect.

Interesting. "What are you saying" definitely seems like a more plausible response from Bertholdt. Thanks for sharing

Thank you!! We are never quite happy with our analysis after. Always coming up with extra ideas in the shower then forgetting to bring them up again

Great reacton 💪💪💪
Keep like this and get ready to fall in love with this masterpiece even more
I'm excited 😉😉😉
セリフから表情までよく観察できていて感情移入もできている、めっちゃいいリアクション。
Thank you!
Crazy Episode!
I watched maybe about 100 videos of this episode peoples reaction. It never fails me!

The next funny thing is: not only reiner and berthold are under your nose, BUT THE MAIN VILLAIN AND FINAL BOSS IS ALSO UNDER YOUR NOSE THE WHOLE TIME.
Don't give them too much.

@@SashimiMaster4210 I agree, I meant that sarcastically.
Talking about all the clues being there. Guys, go to your last video and take a look at what Bert is doing at 13:55
Those last lines should have said/read "You fucking traitors!"
Do you think we will ever see a full blown war of "Titan Kingdom" (if it even exists) against the whole of humanity?
NOTI (not that ive been waiting for this or anything)😅
Classic... 😂
Focus on the Reiner monologue, that's rare to see. Brilliant reaction n analysis
Thank you! It was an incredible scene
@@AidanAndManuela be sure to go back to it after you gain more insight into the story
