Amy:
My favorites are Sasha and Nicollo and Historia and Ymir
I don’t really like Eren and Mikasa
Eren should treat her better
She’s so in love with him even though he is so mean
Jean and Mikasa is sad because Jean is in love with her but she loves Eren
Jean is a second choice for her after Eren dies but Mikasa has always been his #1 choice
Jean and Marco were cute together
Sad that Marco died and Jean lost his best friend
Sasha and Nicollo is very wholesome
He loves to cook, she loves to eat
Lots of very clear chemistry
Sad that Sasha died
Liked how Nicollo attacked Gabi to try to avenge Sasha’s...

Episode 6: Why are Eren and Zeke so Different?
You are listening to Attack On Opinion with your hosts Jenny and Amy.
In this episode of Attack on Opinion we discuss: Eren and Zeke’s relationship and why they are so different even though they are brothers.
Segment 1: Context of the Anime
Attack on Titan is a Japanese manga series set in a world where humanity is forced to live in cities surrounded by three enormous walls that protect them from gigantic man-eating humanoids called Titans. The story follows Eren Yeager, who vows to exterminate the Titans after they bring about the destruction of his hometown and the death of his mother.
Eren and Zeke are brothers
They grew up separately in different environments: Zeke was treated very badly, Eren received love
Zeke’s parents are Grisha Yeager and Dina Fritz, who is a royal
Eren’s parents are Grisha and Carla Yeager
They both have titan powers, Zeke is the beast titan and Eren is the founding and attack titan
Grisha injected Eren with titan serum
They have different plans for humanity: Eren wants to kill everyone except for the Eldians and Zeke wants to make it so the Eldians can’t reproduce so there will be no more titans
Zeke wanted Eren to follow his plan and Eren tricked him into thinking that he would but ends up betraying him

Segment 2: Audience Opinions
Eren did the right thing in betraying Zeke
“Sorry, brother. I was just playing along…so I could get here.”
Zeke just wanted to live the rest of his life in harmony, Eren’s betrayal wasn’t worth it
“Hey Eren… we're the only ones…who understand, right?”

Segment 3: Our opinions
We do not agree with Eren’s plan we think it is genocide
Eren literally orchestrated Grisha’s trauma, which in turn, orchestrated Zeke’s trauma
Wants to kill everyone except his friends
Wants to have kids with Mikasa so doesn’t want to be sterilized
Eren is being petty; he wants the non eldians to die because some of them are racist to Eldians which is not cool but that doesn’t mean all of them should be killed
Eren was a spoiled child while growing up

Attack on Opinion
Should Ymir have left with Reiner and Bertholdt?
Episode #5
You are listening to Attack On Opinion with your hosts Jenny and Amy.
In this episode of Attack on Opinion we discuss: Ymir’s relationship with Historia, Reiner, and Bertholdt, and whether or not it was the right decision for her to leave the scouts.
Segment 1: Context of the Anime
Attack on Titan is a Japanese manga series set in a world where humanity is forced to live in cities surrounded by three enormous walls that protect them from gigantic man-eating humanoids called Titans. The story follows Eren Yeager, who vows to exterminate the Titans after they bring about the destruction of his hometown and the death of his mother.
Ymir is technically around 100 hundred years old because she was turned into a titan by Marleyan soldiers after the empire of Eldyia lost its power. This was because she represented (they believed she was the reincarnation) of Ymir, the founder of the titans. Therefore, some Eldyians worshiped her to seek out peace. Little did they know, she was simply an orphan that was used to gather money from the people that prayed to her. When the Public Security Authorities found out about this cult, the man who named Ymir placed all the blame on Ymir. Ymir didn’t fight back because she felt as if she did share responsibility for deceiving the people who worshiped her, so she, along many other members, were stoned and turned into pure titans.
Ymir has the Jaw Titan power, which was from eating one of Reiner’s friends who possessed a titan power.
Ymir and Historia fell in love with each other
Reiner has a crush on Historia
Ymir feels guilty about keeping her powers secret and for eating Porco’s brother, aka Reiner’s friend. She also felt indebted to them because their arrival to Eldyia technically saved her life.
They kill Ymir

Segment 2: Audience Opinions
Many people deny the clear intimate relationship between Ymir and Historia because they deny the Lesbian representation, which may influence their opinion on how important it was for Ymir to be sent away.
Some people even debate that Historia is straight, which is clearly wrong. But others say that she’s bisexual, which could have some essence to it but she’s only shown interest in Ymir in the show.
She does get pregnant but many people say it’s because she had the responsibility to do so, not out of her own will.
Majority of people believe it was the right decision to leave and that there’d be no story without this

Segment 3: Our opinions
We liked Ymir and Historia's...

Episode 4: Which Titan is Best?
You are listening to Attack on Opinion with your hosts Jenny and Amy.
In this episode, we will discuss which titan is the best.
Segment 1: Context of the Anime
Attack on Titan is a Japanese manga series set in a world where humanity is forced to live in cities surrounded by three enormous walls that protect them from gigantic man-eating humanoids called Titans. The story follows Eren Yeager, who vows to exterminate the Titans after they bring about the destruction of his hometown and the death of his mother.
There are the regular titans who have huge deformed man-eating bodies. They all share some common characteristics. They don’t react to pain, they move as long as there is sunlight, don’t have a functioning digestive tract- they throw up after they’re “full” to continue eating humans. They also were mindless beasts, easy to trick because they had no intelligence.
Titans used to be humans, meaning that if the titan dies, they die. This was not a known fact.
There were also abnormalities that has some intelligence. Such as the titan in Illse’s notebook that thought she was lady Ymir and began to pray to her. Also, Connie’s mother recognized him and greeted him when he came home.
There are nine major titans, each possessing a different power. These titans are conscious because they have a human who is able to operate them- or really, a human that is piloting them. This is different from a regular titan because they can abandon the body they’re operating.
Founding titan
Armored titan
Colossal titan
Female titan
Attack titan
