Here it all happens lightning-fast, with little time spent lingering on it.
Agreeing with pretty much all of this, and it made it difficult for me to enjoy this episode. Eren's crew died so fast that I didn't even invest enough feelings into them for their deaths to be meaningful. The "timeskip" to saving Armin was BS as David pointed out too. How on earth did that happen? The first 3 episodes of this anime were nice, but now it's hard to get me pumping. Everything just seems so... bland. Maybe if they bothered to animate this "waking nightmare" Y speaks of then I would have felt more emotional. And what's SA?

On the intelligence note, the Titans crossed the pitfall traps at the gate with some type of bridge - was the bridge theirs or were the humans stupid enough to leave it lying there?

I don't read the manga or readers' hype about this, so I'm basically watching this as-is. It's above-average entertaining, but Valvrave's already overtaken it in the Weekly Anticipation factor.
