Attack on Titan 1.05

First Battle: The Struggle for Trost, Part 1

Eren attacks and deals a mighty blow to the Colossal Titan. It disappears but lots more Titans attack the city. Civilians are evacuated to within the next set of inner walls. The guards are quickly organized to fight back against the Titans.

Eren gives a motivational speech that motivates some of his fellow guards. They attack the Titans. Armin is almost killed by a Titan but Eren saves him. Eren is unable to save himself as he is swallowed by the Titan right in front of Armin.

Thoughts

This is the first installment in an arc that runs through the 13th episode. I'm going to try and stick with this series until that point.

I have trouble keeping track of all the characters in this series.

That's is for Eren? He's gone? Dead? I thought he was the main character or one of the main characters. The series began by focusing on Eren, Armin, and Mikasa. I figured they were untouchable but I guess I guessed wrong.

I guess the battle goes on but how much longer will it be before Armin and Mikasa are dead. Who will the show focus on after that?
