  1. It’s already been a tough week, so it’s pretty disappointing to learn tonight that Comcast dropped Cartoon Network (or raised it to a higher tier; or whatever).  

    I’m probably no longer watching in real time, no matter where I end up streaming from.  It’s been fun, folks - I think I’m out.  

  2. Prior episodes - what I find hardest to believe is that command officers spend so much time including low level troops in their plans.  

    This episode - I like the callback to a much older season.  It was Mikasa who saves the girl using an axe, right?

  3. This is sneakily becoming my favorite current show - well before the latest ep’s salute to Evangelion.  The kaiju was angel-like, a main character has an eyepatch, armor gets torn off of Gridman, and of course “God’s in His heaven, all’s right in the world.”

  4. Mask girl is my favorite side character to keep an eye out for.  She’s the “Glee Neck Brace Cheerleader” of this show. 

    I made my argument on the Toonami thread that Gridman is a lot closer to Big O than Transformers so far. 

  5. There’s no Gridman forum, right?

    I’m enjoying this one with the kids.  It’s obviously trying to have Transformers references, but so far it’s feeling a lot more like Big O!

    Spoiler

     

    Protagonist has lost his memory 

    City is the only place that exists, and seems to have a boundary overhead.

    Whole world run by a female god

    and giant robots of course.  

     

    I can’t wait to see where it goes from here!

  6. This season started oddly, but I smiled for the whole time the Survey Corps was on screen this episode.  Even if I now have some sympathy for the Eldians also.

    It’s been a while but as I recall Eren doesn’t possess the Founding Titan, he just has access to it since he touched Historia once, right?  The Marleyan’s have generally good intel, I’m surprised they don’t know this yet. (Or I’m misremembering.)

  7. I’m still watching.

    The squad finishes a mission to China, with a bunch of exposition about the history of the Evangelist - who looks like the Myojin of Cleansing Fire to me.  I like that Shinra is willing to take on God if he has to.

    Random theory:  the Edola Burst twilight world is actually the world of the past at the time of the Great Cataclysm - this explains the smoke and the skeletons. 

  8. Somehow I saw it that Reiner sacrificed himself to save Zeke (I love how that autocorrected to Zeon on this site), but he was in the next ep preview so I got it wrong.  
    It took me a while to remember that for Gaby to become the Armor, she’d have to become a Titan and then eat Reiner.  It’s been long enough that I’ve forgotten the rules.  

  9. ...and we’re back!  As are probably all of Kirito’s friends by the time I count ‘em up.

    I love the craziness of this show, but I’m not sure I would’ve led with Kirito’s little sister in a witch tentacle rape scene.  However, maybe now we’ve got it out of our system for the rest of the season.  

    The problem with this show is that I’m always distracted from the underworld part since the RL Scooby Gang is under fire on the Turtle ocean platform.  I’m a little too worried about their real lives still.
