I feel compelled to post but this manga has taken my words. I almost wish I'd never seen this thread, so that in 20 years I could find this finished and read the poo poo out of it all at once

Until the giant titan showed up, the cities were pretty much perfectly safe. There's a general impression that general readiness is way down since there hasn't been any real impending danger in a century, hence all the so-called attempts at taking back the outside. The average person considers the military to be a bunch of freeloaders, not a vital part of their survival. Then the giant titan disappears for 5 years and they really only have one panicked account to go on as far as any tactics employed by it. They doors stay part as a symbolic gesture and part to provide a way to get scout teams (platoons more like) and their supplies in and out quickly. dis astranagant fucked around with this message at 21:13 on Jun 3, 2011 |

Also, you seem to greatly overestimate the ability of explosives to actually destroy something that they just happen to be set off next to. Titans seem to hardly be bothered by getting knocked around or losing big hunks of tissue other than their neck. Setting off a bomb next to one might knock them flat and maybe cause some nasty wounds if there's a good bit of shrapnel, but if would take a pretty drat good blast to reliably kill a bunch of titans. Generally, if you want to be sure you destroy something tough, you set off the explosion inside it, which would require some fancy guided missile stuff that's way over these guys' heads.

Mr. Vile posted:That's basically the impression I get from them. They're very, very sharp because they have to cut through Titan flesh, but they're only good for one or two uses before the blade has to be replaced. The little diagonal lines across the sword are for snapping the blade off to keep the part near the end sharp. I thought it said something about them being coiled up and are much longer than shown once they pierce the titan.

Zorak posted:Simple: she disengaged from it while they started to try to devour her, then 3D maneuvered out as the body deteriorated. The deterioration obscured her enough to hide from both Rivalle and the giants. I love how you're led on like it's all gonna work and then 3 pages later they're all dead.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure a Titan would get the gently caress out of dodge if it saw you take down something like Fatalis or Lao Shan Lung, much less any of the Frontier bullshit.

Maria alone was just over 3000KM long. I didn't get a good feel for how far apart the wall titans were but let's say they're 50 meters apart, in which case there's 60 of them in there. The middle wall is about 2400KM long (48 titans) and Sina is just under 1600KM (32 titans). I wouldn't think they'd pack more than maybe twice that many in there if they're 50 meters tall. That's 7000KM of wall, which is a good bit longer than the Nile's 6650. dis astranagant fucked around with this message at 03:56 on Apr 16, 2013 |

derp derp The anime thread was guessing about 20 million based on the preindustrial agriculture and land area roughly the size of France.

There has to be some pretty hellacious famine going on in the remaining area if that was just the outer wall refugees. They lost the majority of their arable land, which was likely being farmed to the fullest extent to support the higher population densities further in.

Berserk has been really, really slow the last few years. We haven't had a chapter in over 6 months now and last year had less than 10. The latest tank took over a year and a half to fill.

It runs in a shounen rag. The over-under on every surviving named character being one at some future date is pretty low.

I'm guessing something like 21 end of fight 22 Another chatty episode for debriefing and planning poo poo 23 More chatter, end with Eren, Mikasa and Annie's little walk 24 Fight again 25 End fight and wall titan reveal.

Injured and on the frontline? Gonna go with brutal near death experience, though probably nothing crippling because that would limit any future Mikasa's abs spreads.

That's why they use 2 at a time. It's so they can completely remove a big chunk before the titan can regenerate.

I think she's just knows the role she's going to have to play now that they've knocked over the rest of the royal family. The people are more likely to fall in line if they spin this as family politics rather than a new military government.
