Feel free to hate me, WIT did a way better job than Mappa in terms of Aot, never changed my mind for in the slightest after Aot in charge by Mappa for such a long time
@@ChibiNarutosame here. While I appreciate the animators in MAPPA (I don't respect MAPPA itself, they abused their workers) working in a time limit, WiT have done a better job in S1-3.

From what I heard, they only have 8 months to animate S4 and it took years for WiT to animate S1-S3.

I hope he had a good enough character that he didn’t go risking himself just to kill people when he could. Although maybe my memory’s failing me and he needed to kill him to get out and go to the Female Titan where Armin and Jean were?
that doesn't make any sense he already told annie where eren was. why kill someone in your own squad (when people are going to run through the same position) by the looks of it the guy seemed to be a commanding officer given that the middle consited of recruits and intermediate soldiers. that being said, Jean and armin are seen alone despite also having their own counterparts.
@@weirdart1638 True, but without access to wireless communication and motion detection technology, it's the best thing they had. There's a good reason why the Survey Corps has the highest death count in the army, and before Erwin took command and introduced this formation, it used to be worse.
Its weird that he aslo created a situation like this. Its like you created a problem and a solution. Well that's easy if you created the problem then you already know the solution.
It's because tactic won't work against better-armed and better-trained army of Marlay. Erwin's death proof this. You just can't confront an enemy with better weapon even if you have the best tactic in the world.
So for anyone who’s not sure what Erwin’s plan was here’s the step by step starting with his initial theories **forming the plan** Eren is a human who can turn into a Titan. Conclusion? Humans can turn into titans If humans can turn into Titans have there been any other titan shifters? We’ve had reports of how the colossal Titan appears in similar fashion to Eren’s Titan. Conclusion? the colossal and by extension the armored Titans are humans If the colossal and armored titans are humans who are they? Moreover why didn’t they breach wall Rose? Conclusion?they were present to see Eren’s arrival and likely apart of the military If they were apart of the military then who? They couldn’t have been present before the walls were breached. Conclusion: they are hiding amongst the 104th cadets This leads into **the plan itself** Step 1: going off the initial hypothesis that the titans are 104tb cadets he sets up a “honey pot.” (Or a tempting target that is secretly a trap) During the initiation ceremony note how he sets up Eren, the upcoming mission, and the basement. Going out of his way to divulge information. He’s baiting the warriors to attack Step 2: narrow the potential suspects. Erwin goes out of his way to talk up about how dangerous joining the scouts is and how likely you are to die. This scares away majority of people. Those that remain are his pool of suspects as the titans would remain in order to capture Eren regardless of the personal danger. Step 3: amongst the 104th cadets spread them out across the formation and give each of them a different position for Eren to be present. The goal being to bait the enemy to attack the section Eren is stated to be present Tell Cadet A that Eren is in section 8, Cadet B section 6 and Cadet C section 12. If the enemy attacks Section 6 Cadet B is the spy And we see this play out note: how when the female Titan attacks it attacks from the Right Flank and as Reiner, Armin, and Jaen talk they each say Eren is in a different section but Reiner says “Wait I thought Eren was in the RIGHT FLANK.” And just like that Erwin’s gambit has been successful. Any cadet who was told Eren was on the right flank is now a suspect Most notably: Reiner and Berthold Note how Jaen who had Eren on the left flank is removed from suspicion and Armin who discovers Annie is as well but by Step 3 Erwin has been successful. And narrowed down his suspects and now simply needs to weed out the rest. Those who are still under suspicion are separated from the rest of the scouts and sent to the isolated outpost where we see them in the start of Season 2
Honestly, i like the way WIT studio made the background of this anime. But, i prefer Mappa for the foreground or the way they made the character face. If they could work together, i believe it would be beyond the word of masterpiece.
The Long-range Scouting Formation is a genuinely genius example of Erwin Smith's military-tactical mind. As another comment put it, it's a giant human radar! The front-most regiment acts as detection, the signal is then given to the commander via the relay regiment and then navigational changes are distributed to all the remaining squads via the command regiment with the elite squads and supply regiment in the center being protected by the rest of the formation. This makes the most sense because apart from human lives the most valuable assets in the formation is the most skilled and experienced soldiers & cargo (in this case being supplies and of course, Eren.) Logistically you could not get a better formation than this in titan territory and it shows why even as a captain, Erwin's squads usually made it home unscathed. It was also another genius move to disclose any/all information about the purpose of the mission and the location of the Special-Ops squad for Erwin had suspected there was an infiltrator in their ranks. This wasn't an expedition so much as it was one big elaborate trap for the enemy.
Man, going back it's even crazier when you realize the three dimmensoinal game of chess Erwin was playing against the Marley Warriors, and how this was one huge trap meant to lure out a shifter and expose other agents with the false information he gave to different groups in the formation.
@@timothybasalo4038 If I'm not mistaken, this was supposed to originally be a small skirmish to train for the Shinganshina operation, if I'm not mistaken But Erwin's plan was to capture a titan. How he knew that the female Titan would appear? I have no idea
@@timothybasalo4038 Erwin already knew there were traitors (possibly titan shifters) among them. During his requirement speech, he purposely mentioned about Eren’s basement and their plan to reclaim Shiganshina in order to lure the traitors into following them in the expedition. If I’m not mistaken... Reiner, Berthold, and Annie were all supposed to go to the Military Police to get closer to the King. Eren’s appearance as a titan took them by surprise and Erwin’s revelation that the answer to the titans’ mystery can be answered by going to Eren’s basement forced Reiner and Berthold to join the Survey Corps.
@@timothybasalo4038 erwin hypothesized there were spies after the first colossal titan appearance by getting inside the destroyed wall, he asked everyone who joined after that time period a weird question and if they answered correctly, they would be in on the capture attempt

@@madara_ackermantrue but his age nerfs him bad Erwin already knew the truth of the world and his own government he was serving years before armin was born
This was peak Attack on Titan. So much better than what's being presented now. Realistic tactics that work against insurmountable odds. Fantastic character interactions and leadership. Seeing all the strongest fighters in the AoT universe working together was when this show was at its best. I wish they would go back to this instead of the time traveling and founding titan bullshit
(1:45) Looking at birds will never be the same when re-watching AOT. 🕊💀 Edit: After making this comment, I immediately noticed that a red flare was fired, in the same direction Armin was looking, RIGHT AFTER the two birds flew off. I'm speculating that that's Future Eren in the afterlife watching over Armin from the past, and after watching the ending, I can never trust Hajime Isayama again. 😭
AOT back then: lol silly guy biting his tongue all the time And occasional tragic death. Sadness. AOT now: maybe....we are the bad guys. Wait no. They are evil! or...I DON'T KNOW!
They played right into Erwins hand and is one of the reasons Reiner becomes a suspect in season 2 as his information was that Eren is on the right flank, where the female titan attacked from.
Vv smart formation and the amount of trust Erwin must put into the scouts to keep following whilst being that split up must be a lot, although I will say if it is even slightly windy when Erwin fires his flare to re direct them they kinda fucked
To put it simple, they are moving in a semi-circle formation. If they see a Titan, the one who spotted Titan will fire red smoke, and others will follow. Then, Erwin will notice it and fire green smoke at other direction indicating their new path. Everyone will follow Erwin path. This way, they can avoid fighting Titan on open ground while going to the objectives.
Arruda i don’t think saying that was necessary, please don’t start a fight with me, i was a little confused as well until i went back and actually payed attention to what Erwin was doing (cuz beforehand i wanted action until i realized im not gonna understand sh*t)

Against humans they have to constantly change tactics because the enemy is much better at learning

It's because tactic won't work against better-armed and better-trained army of Marlay.
Erwin's death proof this. You just can't confront an enemy with better weapon even if you have the best tactic in the world.
I remember watching this scene for the first time thinking this is the coolest thing ever
The good old day of WIT studio masterpiece. Its so amazing.
So for anyone who’s not sure what Erwin’s plan was here’s the step by step starting with his initial theories
**forming the plan**
Eren is a human who can turn into a Titan. Conclusion? Humans can turn into titans
If humans can turn into Titans have there been any other titan shifters? We’ve had reports of how the colossal Titan appears in similar fashion to Eren’s Titan. Conclusion? the colossal and by extension the armored Titans are humans
If the colossal and armored titans are humans who are they? Moreover why didn’t they breach wall Rose? Conclusion?they were present to see Eren’s arrival and likely apart of the military
If they were apart of the military then who? They couldn’t have been present before the walls were breached. Conclusion: they are hiding amongst the 104th cadets
This leads into
**the plan itself**
Step 1: going off the initial hypothesis that the titans are 104tb cadets he sets up a “honey pot.” (Or a tempting target that is secretly a trap)
During the initiation ceremony note how he sets up Eren, the upcoming mission, and the basement. Going out of his way to divulge information. He’s baiting the warriors to attack
Step 2: narrow the potential suspects. Erwin goes out of his way to talk up about how dangerous joining the scouts is and how likely you are to die. This scares away majority of people.
Those that remain are his pool of suspects as the titans would remain in order to capture Eren regardless of the personal danger.
Step 3: amongst the 104th cadets spread them out across the formation and give each of them a different position for Eren to be present.
The goal being to bait the enemy to attack the section Eren is stated to be present
Tell Cadet A that Eren is in section 8, Cadet B section 6 and Cadet C section 12. If the enemy attacks Section 6 Cadet B is the spy
And we see this play out note: how when the female Titan attacks it attacks from the Right Flank and as Reiner, Armin, and Jaen talk they each say Eren is in a different section but Reiner says
“Wait I thought Eren was in the RIGHT FLANK.”
And just like that Erwin’s gambit has been successful. Any cadet who was told Eren was on the right flank is now a suspect
Most notably: Reiner and Berthold
Note how Jaen who had Eren on the left flank is removed from suspicion and Armin who discovers Annie is as well but by Step 3 Erwin has been successful. And narrowed down his suspects and now simply needs to weed out the rest.
Those who are still under suspicion are separated from the rest of the scouts and sent to the isolated outpost where we see them in the start of Season 2
This is why only smart people can write smart characters. A character can only be as smart as the one writing them and their actions.
Damnnn
Hands down my fav arc, shows the powerful leadership of Erwin, the capability of the Scouts, and each character’s capabilities.
3:24 the titans like oh oh ur going over there and i eh was going there too! heheh ehhh...
:P Honestly tho!
I still think S1 has the best pacing & intensity out of all the seasons.

Mikasa is a squad herself 💀💀💀
And they say Steel Ball Run can't be animated...
These are the types of details that I live about aot. Despite the Titans shifting race and all, the world is so……believable.
I don't think tung biting is no joke.
AOT back then: lol silly guy biting his tongue all the time
And occasional tragic death. Sadness.
AOT now: maybe....we are the bad guys. Wait no. They are evil! or...I DON'T KNOW!
1:30 Annie's POV?
Miss the old days of aot when every battle have detail strategy and technique
I think the story writer was in the army.😂😂😂. I mean such brilliant scripting and briefing and even more good direction 😍😍
3:46
Sasha: damn Im so tired of this ####
the horse: I should be more tired than you are
Season 1 is GOATed
not mikasa having no squad members cs of her strength 😂
Great formation. Only undone by Annie
They played right into Erwins hand and is one of the reasons Reiner becomes a suspect in season 2 as his information was that Eren is on the right flank, where the female titan attacked from.
This crawling titan was 2nd most menacing one, along the titan that killed Levi friends.
If Oluo had titan powers he could just titan shift randomly while talking
Kids: Mikasa is alone how badass.
Meanwhile those who played AOT2: Annie fought with soo many titans all alone and came this far
I bet Mikasa just killed the titans she found
Erwin led this suicide mission to trap the rats, unfortunately so many scouts died
0:14
Nowadays you can count the number of scouts there are.. with your hands.
Vv smart formation and the amount of trust Erwin must put into the scouts to keep following whilst being that split up must be a lot, although I will say if it is even slightly windy when Erwin fires his flare to re direct them they kinda fucked
The time when Eren is not broken
Am I the only one who got confused during this scene?
What did you get confused with? The only reason they did this scene was to explain the formation
Just you
To put it simple, they are moving in a semi-circle formation. If they see a Titan, the one who spotted Titan will fire red smoke, and others will follow. Then, Erwin will notice it and fire green smoke at other direction indicating their new path. Everyone will follow Erwin path.
This way, they can avoid fighting Titan on open ground while going to the objectives.
Arruda i don’t think saying that was necessary, please don’t start a fight with me, i was a little confused as well until i went back and actually payed attention to what Erwin was doing (cuz beforehand i wanted action until i realized im not gonna understand sh*t)
@Arruda woah woah woah calm down, and AOT is shonen anyway bro
I LOVE AOT SFM
Few more days and AoT anime will turn 10 years old
Ah the human centipede of anime
Episode 1x16,17 and onwards.
And people still think Armin was a good choice over Erwin
Lol
Holy shit you're so braindead
Play the indiana jones theme over this. ;)
I'm only now see that aot have 3D... (2:25)
What a great anime
Miss this so much i don't really like the new season that much
It's all mappa's fault
