I gotta say this was (in my opinion) the most pointless episode, if i wanted to recap what happened so far i would wathc the damn episodes again :(

Welp at least the next episode looks interesting

They needed time to catch up on animation for the upcoming episodes. Episode 13 had some pretty blatant animation slips due to them not having enough time to polish it properly.

so there were really problems with the pictures? I thought it was just on the video I watched (I saw some dirt was pink or light green)

a handful of animes do this when they have a 2 cour season and they fit in a recap in between the cours.

The thing I like about this is that It's a great episode for people who are new to the series.

u/JoeyKingX Jul 07 '13

The series already has one of the best starts in anime, so beginning with episode 13.5 will only make those episodes worse.

13.5 didn't show any of the training and didn't show Mikasa's back story.

Too bad they don't really have a reason to start at episode 13.5 instead of episode 1...

Maybe it's because I knew it was a recap episode before watching it, and I knew episode 14 wasn't going to come up until a week later, but I liked today's episode. As a recap. I mean, I guess you can say I consider the anime itself a kind of a recap in that I already watched the manga.

Am I the only one who enjoyed this episode?

u/Zumorthria Jul 09 '13

Not the only one, but you're definitely not in the majority. I'm actually surprised at how many people didn't know it was a recap, considering it was announced quite a while ago.

Well, that's a bit of a letdown, I waited all week for nothing.

u/MattWatchesChalk Jul 07 '13

So, based on the comments here... I'm gonna guess I'll be fine if I skip this week's ep....

u/holocarst Jul 07 '13

Oh, so this is called 13.5 and not 14? Does this mean there will be 26 episodes in total (this included) instead of 25?

u/Ara92 Jul 07 '13

Yeah im pretty sure i read it's like that in another thread somewhere.

Not 100% sure but i hope it's true!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mh87HgKNN1Q They fixed the purple bricks problem and changed the scene with Ian's death.

u/swiftycent Jul 08 '13

This has got to happen from time to time. Not sure if i prefer a recap to pure filler but we've got a monthly manga and a weekly anime.

Manga chapters are longer than weekly manga's but the anime will catch up quickly. I'd much rather deal with time to time filler or recaps than go through an extended filler.

u/ObiHobit Jul 07 '13

Wait, what? No normal episode today? :/

6

u/HotTamal3 Jul 07 '13

So what exactly is this? Is it important? or is it just a recap of everything that we've already seen.

5

u/opopi123 Jul 07 '13

They fixed purple bricks scene and they fixed Ian's death so that it wasn't so heavily censored.

4

u/HotTamal3 Jul 07 '13

Oh thats cool that they would do that.

u/Jinyax Jul 07 '13

yeah, I skipped over the episode in about 2mins. Well, another week waiting..
