The Other Side of the Sea

I was worried about the studio change but now I'm not. The first episode is essentially almost perfect, I'd rate it like a 9.8 out of 10 if I could but I can't so I'm putting 10/10. My only ONLY slight gripe was the cg on the beast titan and the cart titan. The armored titan's cg actually looked really good, as well as the jaw titan's. The rest of the animation was absolutely stunning and completely faithful to the manga which I appreciate immeasurably. I would say though that by no means was the cg bad, in fact it's probably the best cg I've ever seen in anime, it's just that it's still cg and the new beast titan looks good but not AS good as in previous seasons (and the cart titan looked better in the trailer). But it's really so small of a gripe that maybe I shouldn't have even mentioned it because after my second viewing of the episode I was completely used to it and just went "this looks really freaking good all around." Anyway, great start to the final season!!! Enjoy everyone! :D

This is what we call a beginning, except the blurry picture

If the animation of the beast, armored and jaws titan would be a little better, it would definitely be a 10/10

Edit: After rewatching the Episode a couple of times, I don't even mind the cgi anymore! 10/10

Amazing first episode to a season. I enjoyed how it was able to incorporate the main story with an epic battle all in one fight to set up the rest of the show. Can't wait to see what's next and I realllyyy hope it lives up to its hype. So far, its on its course

This season is gonna be talked about for decades to come, it's going to be a hallmark in the medium of anime, and this 1st episode nothing but confirms it, borderline perfection. Amazing episode and the best is yet to come.
