Thaw

Not as big as the last episode but still destructive, 'Thaw' gives us the aftermath of the rumbling with the pure titans left to try and consume everyone still in the grounds of the town. Connie's desperation resulting sudden action, Gabi's change in agenda towards the Braus family.

The episode had it's moments of emotion, the tone for the series has definitely changed now. The rumbling has changed everything, characters feel weak and others are desperate. Long loved characters who became pure titans having to be silenced, a mist of depression now fills the area. It was an episode that just kept on giving. The real endgame has now begun.

9.4/10.

Another fantastic episode in this flawless season. There were some important developments too. The pacing was almost perfect and it flowed really well. I'm very excited to see how the key reveal at the end plays out in upcoming episodes. Hopefully more of the founder in the next episode!

This was YET Another great episode! Though not as great as the three previous episodes, this episode still delivered! The episode contained some great character moments, both in terms of action and dialogue! The scouts fighting titans while "Barricades" played, was just PERFECT for me! Really nice ODM gear animation and some great humans vs titans action! Brought me back to season 1 and 2! The last minutte just made the wait for next sunday, almost unberable.

Damm son. This episode felt like a blast from the past. The 2D ODM gear scenes looked pretty great and it was the first AOT final Season episode to have all the titans be 2D, which looked amazing. Loved the characterization in this episode. Visuals and ost were great as always.

I really enjoyed this episode.

It's like we're back at season 1 and 2 and the gang is slaying some titans and we're seeing another titan invasion like the first seasons in the perspective of ordinary people and it's scary af.

The og gang gets more screen time again and the action with that music feels really good and reminds us of the time when everything in AOT was as simple as a "giants are attacking us and we have to kill them".

I'm really liking the turnaround of the character of Gabi and where it is going.

I also didn't expect that last scene, it was really surprising as I had completely forgotten about that character, I don't even know how Armin remembered.

Overall it was a really enjoyable episode with some great dramatic scenes and character-driven storytelling. Some great actions of titan slaying that felt really nostalgic. And new interesting subplots has been putting into motion.
