fun fact : this ep is rated as best ep of any series , in imdb
You guys are late what are you guys doing upload ever 2 days hello
@@motive_king2292 there’s this thing called editing and copyright lol
Lol
@@ASH-bb4sg lol thanks to u weebs and it gets up and down all the time and 2 brothers and from u 2000 years from now surpassed it and were way better than this episode
"God let floch live another day and now he's gonna make it everybody's problem"
Yeah it was either floch gave himself an excuse to be a survivor when his whole platoon died or feel guilty for being the one who survived and become useless
Essentially he had to be "drunk" to keep pushing forward. Nobody wants to die. Its just a basic human instinct
I suppose they need another devil... hhh
Floch is a great character! Respect it!
@@Danny-mg1hu agreed. I love how his character progressed
I think the thing that makes a person a hero is doing the right thing no matter the cost. Even though Armin knew he would probably never get to see the sea, he still sacrificed his life so that the Scouts could win. That's what makes him a hero.
I agree with u
And who gets to define what the right thing is?
@@arimpact subjective I guess depends ,sometimes valuing many above yourself especially good if voluntary
Nope eventhough erwin will not know the truth he died
Yup. You are exactly right. Halo has similar themes and even Captain America talks about this in the MCU. Heroes are ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.
What I love about the Levi vs Beast Titan fight is that Levi is constantly one step ahead.
The Beast defends his nape but Levi goes for the eyes, he realises he can't see and Levi is already cutting down his ankles, he notices that his ankles are gone and Levi is already positioning to strike the nape, he tries to harden but Levi is already performing the coup de grace. He didn't stand a chance.
Even after beast titan got warned about levi, he still got smoked
Yup. Imagine if Bertholdt and Reiner were both killed before Bertholdt's transformation. Mikasa AND Levi double teaming Zeke would've easily killed him before the Cart could even react. Unfortunately, plot armor (for both sides) got in the way.
Got smoked literally and figuratively
Armin was the one who showed Eren his book and told him about the outside world. Armin was the one who gave Eren the idea of going outside the walls. He gave Eren the idea of freedom. And even when Eren doubted himself, Armin was the one who gave him the motivation to keep going. You can tell that Eren is absolutely devastated by what happened. He doesn't sound sad, he doesn't even sound angry at the end. He just looks and sounds completely and utterly broken. Because his best friend Armin was a hero.
So...
it's basically all Armin's fault. Yeah, sounds about right.
Armin should have died here lol
@@jasonblack2477 He should not, his character was made to do more and better. Erwin had to.
@@jasonblack2477 Erwin didn't work for the story and it themes anymore. Armin on the other hand still did. And just in this episode alone, look how different their approach is:
Erwin sacrificed himself and alot of people and didn't archived his goal.
Armin sacrificed only himself and archived his goal.
@@somestuff7876 he might have said that in response to what you said about Armin.
"No it's perfect!"
Kenny: "Did you hear that?"
Montana-: "...Yeah..."
Kenny: "I don't think you did~"
Montana: "It's so risky; no it's perfect."
Kenny: "Who said it?"
MIKASA: "Hange!"
Montana: *super surprised picachu face and gasp: "Are you kidding me?!"
Haha, perfect timing Mikasa!
Fun fact; this episode is currently the highest rated TV episode on IMDB, and there are three other episodes currently in the top 10.
Actually still it's in the first place, and the previous in the second
How many times are people gonna comment this I wonder
@@snake1987666 Oh, really? I heard it was second a while ago, but I guess it's back to first. Thanks for the info!
@@Anonymous-vl8ez enough times to piss off Breaking Bad fans into giving this episode 1 star rating... Again.
unfortunately game of thrones - battle of the bastards has a rating of 9.9 with 202 722 votes, and winds of winter has 9.9 with 142 826 votes. Breaking bad - Ozymandias has 9.9 with 162 098 votes. So fun fact your fun fact is bullshit.
I love how the thumbnail is just Kenny smiling knowingly while Montana is curled in on herself looking miserable LMAOOOO
This part is forshadowed in season one when Annie asks Armin weather he would be ready to die if asked
And Armin said " I think if there's a legitimate reason there might be no there choice but to die"
Annie got so wet for him when he told her she was actually a pretty nice person
@@itsmesteve1081 arumihhhh
@@itsmesteve1081 LMAO! She really did 😆😆😆😆👍🏻
Yeah he said, "I think I would, If I knew there was a reason, that my death would save lives."
Remember when Armin thought he was just the useless weak link weighing everyone down?
Yeah, me too.
The moment Levi yells “I PROMISED!” His voice actor sounded like he was on the verge of tears so much desperation conveyed in his voice.
Poor Montana. Two major death scenes, back to back.
Not to mention the fake out Kenny pulled with Hange.
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
Okay but the character development of Mikasa to KNOW Eren is in danger and instead say "No. That's not my job right now"
Because she trusted that Armin would take care. I think if it wasn’t for Armin she made have acted differently lol
"Our duty, as soldiers is to protect humanity. Whatever the cost"
-John 117, Master Chief
Armin is the GOAT
That’s very important especially in last arc
John Arlelt
@@randomlad8528 Erwin: Armin, mind telling me what you're doing on top of that wall?
Armin: Sir. Finishing this fight.
@@faranbutt Oh yes, absolutely!
however in most occasion, after the soldier finish their job, only they learn that what they did have nothing to do with protecting the humanity but on the contrary the opposite of that especially these soldier within the walls. (those who up to date with manga and anime should be awared of what I meant here.)
I love how Captain Levi goes for all the vital points on Zeke before ripping him out. Man, it always feels nice seeing peoples genuine reaction to this season. Can’t wait until they see season 4 and how it all ends, because it’s so good so far.
Marlo's death is so unspoken. His last thought was about Hitch not knowing that she is waiting for him, his death shattered me.
Loving Montana's naming of the titans. Rocket Man Titan. Dark Emo Mermaid Titan. Crawling Duck Titan.
I remember putting my hand over my face and crying through the entire credits to this episode. Then when the screen went blank I sat crying and unable to move for several minutes. Truly a legendary episode!
Wano insane rn
Fun fact; it took Arifumi Imai 1 month to storyboard and 3 months to animate the scene of Levi fighting the Beast Titan. He also animated a number of scenes shown earlier in the show, one being the first fight scene in the very first episode.
4 months of work...WOW!!! It's stuff like this that I always say to manga readers who complain about an anime's animation quality versus a drawing on a panel. Animation takes a long time if you want it to be excellent.
@@GoatLuffy_97 yeah people bitch all the time over Mappa’s animation in part 1. They didn’t have that time even for 1 episode.
Did you hear that wit studio is being overtaken by mappa to animate another anime again? I can't remember what anime it was but damn it's such a shame. I don't know what is happening with wit studio. They have very talented animators, but seem to be dropping animes left and right half way through its life cycle
WIT had to drop Vinland Saga and MAPPA took it. WIT apparently almost went bankrupt doing AoT so they don't have the resources to take on large projects anymore. It's a shame that this incredible anime almost destroyed an entire studio.
If I had a nickel for every time Armin stabbed Eren, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
love the reference
Just imagine Levi taking down those titans, perfectly safe. Being forced to listen to those riding to their deaths.
there’s def a reason why Hero is imbd’s top 1 episode
Yeah it was number one for a whole week.
Consider how new episodes of television come out every single day. An episode staying number one for a whole week was crazy. It was only overthrown after a king of games episode came out, which was expected. They are practically the equals of anime and western shows. I believe the next episode was number 2 for a while too
@@itsmesteve1081 you have to be using internet explorer or something bc it’s been at one for as long as i can remember now. and it still is
Erwin and armin-ultimate think tanks making the strategy
Levi, eren- ultimate fighters executing it
Fun fact:Hero is the highest rated ep ever on IDMb
No one cares
@@bradcooper5667 clearly at least 87,000 people do care considering it’s the number 1 rated episode on IMDb

@@Hosenbivad Search up “IMDb highest rated episode”, click the first imdb link.
Fun fact: Your fun fact is bullshit.
@@Hosenbivad No need to be so aggressive dude
Love Montanas heavy breathing when Levi took out the beast. Exactly my reaction
3:18 Marlo in his last moments of life thinks of Hitch and he thinks that she is probably asleep at that moment
Cut 11:34 Hitch is actually awake looking out the window waiting for Marlo to come back.
Marlo seems to be a really developmentable character if Isayama had mercy to not blow his head off. Again,Isayama is the true Devil.
If you listen closely, you can hear my heart breaking in the distance for these two
He is like a mother on christmas day watching his daughter open presents lmfao, just frequent little eye movements
Each one of them has different personalities that's why being "the bravest" is a subjective term. Nevertheless, the courage Armin has shown in this episode is one of a kind. Sacrificing your life, your dream, and your happiness in order to save others made Armin one of the bravest people in the entirety of this show.
Just like erwin did. Except he was pushed by levi but lets not forget erwin had to bring a bunch of kids to death with him too. Yet he still did it.
@@ImSaixe and that takes a lot of courage too
One amazing thing about character growth: I'm now at the part where Levi runs his blade through Zeke's eye. Anyone Montana didn't look away for one second?
Zeke was written so well that even she wanted to see him suffer.
Anyone else EXTREMELY HYPED for this episode!?
Honestly Kenny I’m really excited for you to finally get to continue the series and see what happens!
I've been waiting for this and the next episode for a long time. Everyone who's on a rewatch has known what was coming and it's here. Taking a deep breath and heading in because it's a big one and not going to be easy for Montana (and probably not even for us rewatchers, tbh).
Dunno if "hyped" it the right word, but it's what I've been in anticipation of for a long while now!
Kenny been popping off with these thumbnails lately!!
When I first saw this episode, I thought it was a masterpiece, I mean it still is but it's crazy that Season 4 has some episodes that are just as good or even better imo. This show is just that amazing that it keeps outdoing itself. Best show ever imo! This episode was the episode where I started saying "This series is the best series of all time." 🐐
Armin showed no matter how weak you are... there is an hero in all of us
CORRECTION: Midnight sun premieres this THURSDAY, not sunday!!
can't wait to cry again 🥲
Me watching their She-Ra reactions: "oh very good! Montana is making very considered and nuanced arguments about the psychology of Catra and how she's been raised and groomed to be this way. It's very encouraging for the upcoming Attack on Titan episodes going forward that she is able to see the "enemy" like this and understand their perspective."
The past 2 episodes:
Kenny: "What are your thoughts on Bertholdt?" Montana: "Die."
Montana: "Yes, drag him."
Me: 😬
(to be a little fair, I know Isayama purposely set it up so we don't know their full stories yet. and also emotions are running high.)
At this point in the story such reactions are completely understandable.
[SPOILER]
It's people who hate on Gabi later and other such folks who disappoint me....
Yeah I guess, still kind of annoying though
@@AmberyTear Tbh, I dislike Gabi because her actions constantly get poor Falco into trouble. I understand her point of view and the fact that she was raised to be the way she is (sort of sociopathic, with no regard to the lives she takes, a perfect soldier). But I hate that her actions don't give her consequences, but Falco, who is entirely innocent most of the time.
Zeke:Don't you call me beast titan again,Cuz I saw the true BEAST on that day!!
i feel like the dude is a bit emotionally tone deaf. Montana is having an emotional breakdown and he is like '':) wasn't that cool? did you hear that?'' lol
Yeah exactly. The reactions would be much better without him lmfao
That's bcoz he has already watched this episode before him lol. He knows Hange was not dead.
I know this sounds weird, but I’m glad to watch these episodes together with you guys. It feels like I’m not crying alone 🙈
The English VAs are good, but the dub sometimes leaves out subtle things important to characters' personalities and their relationships with one another. In dub version, Jean says to Armin, "It took you long enough." But in sub, Jean adds, "It took you long enough, dummy." Jean calling Armin names just reminds me of how close they really are. It's just one word left out but it says a lot to me about their relationship.
Speaking of Jean, he doesn't get enough credit for what he's done. Not only was it his plan that took down the armored titan, but he put himself in the most vulnerable spot as the decoy with only his blades to attack.
Sadly, a lot of the time, the dub writers dont get to add certian things or correctly translate stuff like that because they have to fit the lip flaps with editing and voicing the characters. they r not allowed to modify the animation, so dubs tend to lose out or sometimes even gain important details like this
As someone who prefers the sub overall, I’d still argue that the reverse also happens sometimes, where the dubbed version of a line speaks more to a character than the original version. For instance, I think Bertholdt saying “we could live a thousand years and never again know peace” (Season 2) says more about where his head’s at than “we couldn’t come to terms with our sins.”
@@pademelon2216 yes that does happen here and there, also like when English VA Erwin yells “I said advance!” with his arm in a titans mouth whereas original Japanese VA only yells “advance!” But for really the most part I just prefer the subtitles and the Japanese VA. Hearing Jean’s and Levi’s Japanese voices makes my day.
I 100% agree. Talented voice actors, buts god damn sometimes they screw up the translation a little too much. Its not the voice actors fault. The armin final scene had phenomenal voice acting. One of the few times the translation didn't mess it up
Armin in Attack on Titan Junior High:
*I am too cold without my futon!*
Bertholt: *And I took it personally!*
No one talking about the little flash of hitch staring out the window waiting for Marlo ) ;
I always said Armin was pretty hot.
I cannot wait until we get to the basement. I'm so excited for Montanas reaction
I get chocked up every time.
Episode 16 , 17 and 18
Montana : 😨😰😢
Kenny : 🙂
Did anyone else get chills at the sheer *rage* in Mikasa's voice when she said "Reiner, it's over!"?
Well, we've arrived at the highest rated episode of Attack on Titan, and probably my third favourite episode of the series.
And looking at it, it's easy to see why.
While Perfect Game was as effective as it was because of how well it wrote the character of Erwin Smith, Hero is as effective as it is because of what it means for the arc.
It's the climax of the arc and delivers THE most satisfying scene of the entire series, along with incredible writing for Armin and Eren.
Why is this the highest rated episode of any series ever on IMDB? Because it's where the Battle of Shiganshina Arc hits its climax.
Prepare yourself.
I find it kind of funny how Eren's second titan kill without using the Attack Titan was the Colossal.
@@karlwilker579 DON'T READ THAT MONTANA
@@SquallSZ They are already 2 episodes into s4 by now you muppet.
@@Astral0muffiN respect ?

Which anime should we watch next?? Comment below!!
jojo's bizzare adventure
Didn’t see this, so I commented elsewhere, sry. Hunter x Hunter :)
Death Note
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood
“Good drag him” yess the hypocrisy showing in this anime from the reactors is always great. Isayama is a genius for bringing out the villain in all of us and showing our hypocrisy.
YEP
Exactly. Thank you
I agree with you but can you tell me what the hypocrisy is? I'm trying see what you mean
This makes absolutely no sense because Montana hasn't seen berthold's side of the story yet. This arc still portrays him as a villain
@@JoseRamirez-ew7vq not really
The best thing about this reaction was him holding her hand and consoling her as she watched all this play out. That made my heart melt.
I thought Montana woulda caught that they ain’t invent baseball yet, I’m sad lol
I think Heetah and Hustla was the ones that had me realize that for the first time
I think those are details that you notice later on while rewatching or through the fandom, not whilst you're in emotional anguish because there's total chaos on the screen.
@@strawberryfox8819 true true, u absolutely right now that I think about it cuz (if you know u know) it woulda made more sense for me to notice that when they addressed “it’s too detailed”
Her reaction was priceless it’s why I like watching other people react to AoT
Every scout is a hero in this episode.
You know Levi’s a badass when Reiner singles him out as the biggest threat to them in the battle.
I love that Sasha remembers mikasas speech on either episode six or seven where she learned eren was “dead” and she told everyone if I don’t fight I can’t win
As I said - The Ackkaman guy is best
Two things I love about this episode in English dub. The voice actor for Hange going "now's your chance GET HIM!!!" and Levi's scream when he tears that dood out of the beast titan, you can just hear the pain, rage and satisfaction in his scream all at the same time.
"courage isn't the strenght to go on, its going on when you don't have the strenght"
Yes!! I have been waiting for this episode since you started watching AOT. Can't wait to watch it.
Description : ' In arguably the best episode in television history'
Me after watching Episode 80 : *My child how young and naive you are*
I didn't realize that Armin was one of the favorite character in the show until I watched Hero and Midnight Sun.
I was never a big fan of Armin but he still made me tear up here. That kind of sacrifice always does it for me.
I just remember watching these 3 episodes for the first time (it was not when they were premiered, so I saw them the same day) crying because I was sad, stressed, and so on.
Yea these were the episodes where I just cried, I never cried like that when it came to a show
LOVE Montana's reaction on this. Love to see rections like this. Hers was one of the best ones. Full of emotion! More please
Oh hun ur not a baby for crying this episode. I cried while watching the whole episode and I watched this season 3 times and it still gets me
What I've never understood was how on earth Isayama made the previous episode so incredibly intense, this one even more so, but then when you thought it was over, the next episode comes along and just ruins your life. I've never had a show before that could make me cry for separate reasons, MULTIPLE EPISODES IN A ROW! Incredible writing on his part!
Armin was defintely the hero of this episode , but imo so was everybody else : Erwin, Levi , Hange , Mikasa , Moblit , Jean, Sasha, Conny , and finally Eren, for getting Bertholdt out of the colossal .
ps: Kenny so cute how eager he is to show aot to montana , but like, she's not blind , she can see and hear what's happening , at this point she doesn't need to be walked through this anymore, she's already an aot fan .
Yeah I agree. It is very irritating
I've literally been waiting for these 3 episodes ever since you guys started the series and posted episode 1 on June 17th 2021, 8 months ago.
The time finally came fellow fansss
I can't wait until we get to see both of their reactions to " From You, 2000 Years Ago"
Part 2/3 of the tearjerker threat. Man this episode hits me every time.
I gave myself the cold cuz i cried so much rewatching this. Cant tell you how long i was waiting for u guys to get to this part
This episode hits the feels hard!
I always can’t help myself but to watch this episode together with the reactors instead of watching their reactions. That’s just how good this episode is
One of the greatest episodes in fiction
"He's not gonna make that mistake again" HOOO BOY, seeing as they just got to *that part* in season 4 part 2, Kenny's fourth wall glance here didn't even KNOW.
Beast mode Levi, and air fried Armin
One of the best episodes EVER seen in Anime.
I was so busy today, I finally get to sit down and watch the new episode of S4 and then this right after :) gonna be the highlight of my damn week
I absolutely love this episode and her reaction to this one is the pinnacle of her reactions thus far
Anyone else thinks that this man getting some after Levi does anything cool
Doesn't matter how many times I see armins sacrifice, it crushes me everytime
Please don't ask her question in the middle of a scene, is like being distracted while watching a movie
It’s so annoying when he describes what’s happening during a scene as if she doesn’t know what’s going on
@@pvrify Exactly, he is basically narrating when is no need it, I will be so annoyed watching for the first time with someone narrating
Exactly like wait for the scene to be over then discuss. Talking mid scene is annoying
This episode’s title reminds me a lot of the episode bystander where when they say the name of the title I just get chills.
You guys are the best..we are in for a rollercoaster..its not over yet
siince we are in baseball..
There is a thing called The Midnight Sun game which is an amateur baseball game usually played in Alaska during summer solstice, I think.
It's been played by so mayn heros, such as Tom Seaver, for example (s4..)
Damn Armin was a great characters, it would be great leader if he is still alive.
Well he will not be a leader
this fucking episode. gets them every time
Beast titan calling that one a draw is like the guy who starts a fight and then yells at his friend to “hold me back”
In everyone's head. " I didn't think levi could get anymore attractive until this episode"
kenny trying to think of an answer to monatanna's question was priceless lol
Watched this episode a tons of times. Even watched others react on it on youtube. But I still get teary eyed everytime wtf
i was shocked when i first watched this episode. seeing armin die was devastating to me. i actually felt some tears escape my eyes after.
I'm surprised noone asked to go to the bathroom after that Levi scene 👀
Kenny, just tell her that the Beast Titan's name is Zeke. I don't know why you aren't. The reveal in ep 20 won't hit as much if she doesn't know
This is by far my favourite episode
Loved this episode can't wait for the next one
Armin has always been my favorite of the 3
If you achieve the mental fortitude of levi, you can just do about anything in life.
Oh wow, for the first time I noticed, Bertholt’s Titan remains was slumped over in front of Eren’s Hardened replica like it was bowing.
Just like Eren said earlier.
God I love this show.
