Don't cry.
Don't cry.
Don't cry.

Moral of the story: don't you ever get attached.

[Gabriel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Es brutalmente crudo. Me lo devoré, hasta ahora ha sido el más adictivo.

Spoilers abajo.

La escena shockeante de la Titan hembra siendo devorada. El gran diálogo de Armin sobre Erwin y su función como líder que toma todas las decisiones de moral cuestionable. La culpa de Eren al debatirse si la decisión que tomó en confiar en sus compañeros fue la mejor o solo se comportó como un cobarde ante el irremediable final sangriento que tuvieron estos. Mikasa y Levi cerrando la batalla contra la Titan Hembra. Y por último, ese final tan triste y decepcionante para el pueblo y el cuerpo de exploración.

4.5/5

This volume was INSAINE.

[Tina Haigler · Rating 4 out of 5]

Well this volume is full of action and speculation, and it's left me feeling murderous. Sometimes someone just needs to die a slow and painful death, and when that doesn't happen, emotions tend to run high. It's also possible that I'm hangry, but either way, I have unresolved issues, so it's on to Volume 8. Hopefully this particular character gets what they deserve, and soon.

Cool and epic battle of titans! :) And we also get to see the opposite side of Erin's choice, in all it's bloody and sad glory.

I think the coin dropped particularly well between the previous volume and this one. It got under my skin.

That female titan really ROCKS.

[fatherofdragons113 · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this arc so much! This story has so many layers.

[Shawna Finnigan · Rating 4 out of 5]

I'm a mess of emotions. Somehow my favorite character's death hit me even harder in this format than it did in the anime. This manga series is so good, but it literally tears your heart into little pieces.

My only complaint is that the fighting is a little confusing in this volume, but I remember the anime well enough that it sort of helped me keep track of the fighting.

[Mario · Rating 5 out of 5]

Can Mikasa be any more badass? She's definitely my favorite character from the series.

Amazing, action packed volume, just as expected.

[Shannon · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ok, so about the female titan. I really think it's weird that they just jumped to "that titan is another one controlled by a human, like Eren!" It's weird how they come to that conclusion so quickly when it's not something that should seem normal. They accepted that paradigm shift way too easily.

I did not expect the experienced crew of Survey Corps members to be wiped out so easily. Why now, when they've been through years of service without such huge problems? Why didn't the female titan appear sooner rather than exactly when Eren does? Some of this is so fishy (or just convenient.)

[Lucy Tonks (the invisible life of a reader) · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm obssessed
I need more of Mikasa tho

[Rodrigo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Espectacular las peleas de los dos titanes. Increíble camada de cadetes, en la misma promoción, 2 que se convierten en titanes.
La batalla va a empezar ...

[Amber Hetchler · Rating 5 out of 5]

Okay. So I'm horribly attracted to Levi. Is that weird? I think he supposed to be in like his 30s. Yeah, that's really weird.

The action in these books just keeps getting better and better! But why does everyone always have to die?

LIFE SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS!

[Gamar ❤]

Levi Heicho : Its your choice Eren .Keep going or stop and fight . There is no right answer
*Turmoil , glancing back*
Squad : Believe in us !
Squad: Have faith eren !
Squad :Do you doubt us ?
*more inner turmoil*
Eren : I believe my squad will be victorious !

Squad : Dies like everyone in AOT

Oops guess he wont trust others anymore . Levi still looking indifferent despite HIS squad being KAPUT . Also : The Ackermans team up

3.5 🌟

our squad had plans, female titan had other plans.

“Don't lose sight of our objective.”

[Henk · Rating 3 out of 5]

I wish something went right at times, but this is a grim reversal of fortune indeed. Besides Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion, Eren seems to be one of the protagonist with least luck in his initiatives
Anybody can make a choice after finding out the results.

What a rollercoaster after last volume and fortunately we get to see a bit more Mikasa, she is by far my favourite character (together with Levi), and actually delivers under pressure. The infiltration angle is very tantalising, but no answers are really given by Hajime Isayama

I spent ages wondering when Eren began loosing trust in other people and I think this book marks the beginning 🥺

Su velocidad!!!!!!! Levi heichou demostrando que es el mejor personaje, lo aMO

"the people capable of changing things, are the ones who can throw away everything dear to them when forced to face down monsters. they can even leave behind their humanity. someone who can't throw anything away... will never be able to change anything."

[Lila · Rating 3 out of 5]

My crush on Levi is reaching dangerous proportions.

Love how he is so cool and collected at all times. Eren, on the other hand, is whiny little kid. Can't wait for him to grow up.

[Δανάη Ιμπραχήμ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mikasa and Levi fighting together is everything.

[Sima ✨ · Rating 4 out of 5]

the Ackermans need a warm hug and lots of love (っಠ‿ಠ)っ

[Krystal · Rating 3 out of 5]

Some seriously hectic story developments, and legit jaw-dropping moments!

Ending took a bit away for me as it's pages of fight scenes with lots of scribbly dark action that is a lot of work to make sense of and, frankly, too much work for my lazy reading style.

Still, the developments make it a worthy volume.

[Anne (ReadEatGameRepeat) · Rating 5 out of 5]

Might be the best one so far? Proper rtc

[ramezan · Rating 3 out of 5]

خیلی داره سعی می‌کنه دنیاش رو به پیچیدگی دنیای واقعی کنه ولی مثل بقیهٔ داستان‌ها هنوز ایرادای جالبی داره: چرا همهٔ این اتفاقا تو این ۱۰۰ سال گذشته نیفتاده و وقتی ارن و میکاسا دارن عقل رس می‌شن یهو همه چیز شروع می‌شه و همه پیچیدگی‌های سیاسی و علمی و فنی عین سیل رو سر آدما فرو می‌ریزن و انواع گونه‌های جدید تایتان رو سرشون آوار می‌شن؟
ایراد متداولیه دقیقا مثل داستانای کارآگاهی که فارغ از پیچیدگی‌های نقشه قتل و ...شون همیشه هر جا قتل اتفاق می‌افته سر و کله پوآرو هم پیدا می‌شه.

Story
You really get to see what the Survey Corps are capable of in this one, and even so how badly outmatched they are by the titans.

Captain Levi is something else though. As badass as Mikasa is, Levi is just in a whole other league.

You learn more about what Eren might be capable of, but still no whiff of answers.

Artwork
I'm going to be redundant and say while it's improving with each volume it still doesn't hold up as well as anime.
