01x07 - Small Blade - The Struggle for Trost (part 3)

Post by bunniefuu »

Over a century ago, beings that prey on humans suddenly appeared.

Their absolutely overwhelming strength quickly pushed humanity to the brink of extinction.

The surviving humans constructed three walls: Maria, Rose, and Sina, which brought them a century of peace.

However...

In the year , the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan suddenly appeared and destroyed one of humanity's walls-and everyday life with it.

Humanity abandoned Wall Maria,lost twenty percent of its population and one-third of its territory, and was forced to retreat behind Wall Rose.

In the year , the Colossal Titan demolished another wall and allowed the Titans inside once again.

Eren!

Hurry!

The entire populace was evacuated two hours later.

Not a single person was eaten by a Titan...

...except for the soldiers who fended them off and d*ed in the line of duty.

Eren.

As long as I have you, I can do anything.

Unknown are the names of the flowers that have been trampled

Birds have fallen to the earth and long for the wind

Prayers won't solve anything

Only the will to fight can change the here and now!

O pigs who laugh at the resolve to walk over corpses to move forward

Livestock complacency? False prosperity?

Give us the freedom of dying, starving wolves!

The humiliation of being caged is what triggers us to fight back

We hunters slaughter prey beyond the castle walls,

consumed with surging bloodlust,

as our crimson bows and arrows pierce scarlet holes into the twilight

Please wait, Captain!

Should the Titans att*ck, we supply soldiers won't be able to hold this position on our own!

Please, Sir! You have to stay here!

Step aside.

I must reorganize the reinforcements now.

Behind the safety of the inner gate, you mean?

What the hell are you trying to say?

I'll have you know I'm following regulations!

Obeying established regulations is a soldier's duty!

B-But, Sir!
If we lose this position...!

Enough of your talk!

Open your mouth again and I'll be forced to punish you for treason where you stand!

Why isn't anyone going over the wall?

I'm sure they heard the bell signaling us to withdraw...

It's all over...

We're done for...

There!

What good is that going to do?

C'mon, Jean! What are we gonna do?!

Ain't anything we can do...

They finally gave the order to withdraw, but we don't have enough gas to scale the wall...

We're all gonna die now...

All 'cause of those cowards...

You mean the supply soldiers?!

What's happened to them?!
Were they wiped out?!

Apparently they lost the will to fight.

I can understand the feeling, but abandoning their duty to supply us so they can barricade themselves inside Headquarters?

And sure enough, Titans have swarmed the place, meaning we can't even get gas for ourselves.

In that case, it's sink or swim!

We'll just have to take out the Titans there!

Hanging around here's no different! The Titans will just gather here too!

We'll only use up what little gas we have left if we keep running aimlessly!

Once we lose our mobility, we're really done for!

You're actually using your head for once, Conny.

But do you really think we have the manpower to pull that off?

Most of the veteran members of the vanguard have been wiped out.

We're just cadets; who can possibly take charge of a su1c1de mission like that?

Even if someone could, it's not like we'd stand a chance against the Titans anyway.

And the supply room's probably got some that are three or four meters high.

There's no way we could get anything done in there.

It's hopeless?

What a dull life this was.

If I'd known this would happen, I would've said something sooner.

Come on, guys! Let's do it!

Get up!

If we all work together, we're sure to succeed!

I'll take the lead!

Armin! Let's go...!

Reiner.

What now?

Not yet. We have to let them gather first.

It's no use...

However you look at it, we're not getting out of this city.

We're all dead.

I mean, I'm ready to die and everything...

It's just... what am I dying for?

Mikasa!

Weren't you with the rearguard?!

Annie!

I understand the gist of the situation.

So I'm sorry for letting my personal matters interfere...

...but have you seen Eren's squad?

I haven't, but some squads did make it over the wall...

Actually, we did find Armin over there.

Armin!

Mikasa...

No! I can't bring myself to face her!

All I did was survive for no good reason...

If I'd known this would happen...

...I would rather have d*ed with him then instead!

Armin.

You're not hurt, are you?
Are you all right?

Where's Eren?

Armin?

We...

The cadets of Squad ...

Thomas Wagner...

Nack Tierce...

Milieus Zeremski...

Mina Carolina...

Eren Jaeger...

These five members...

...fulfilled their duties...

...and d*ed valiantly on the field of battle!

You can't be serious...

So Squad is basically gone...

The same thing'll happen to us if we try to take the Titans on...

I'm sorry, Mikasa...

It should've been me, not Eren...

I...

...wasn't able to do anything...!

I'm sorry...

Armin.

Calm down.

Now isn't the time to be emotional.

Now get up.

Marco.

If we eliminate the Titans swarming around HQ, we can replenish our gas supplies and get over the wall.

Correct?

Well, yeah...

But even with your help, there's just too many...

I can handle them.

Huh?!

I'm strong.

Stronger than all of you.

I'm very strong.

As such, I am capable of annihilating the Titans there!

Even if I have to go it alone.

As for all of you, you're not only unskilled, you're also cowards and wimps.

You're a real disappointment.

You can just stay here and twiddle your thumbs.

Twiddle and watch.

Whoa, Mikasa!
What's gotten into you?!

You're seriously gonna take on all those Titans by yourself?!

There's no way you can b*at them!

If I can't, then I'll die.
It's that simple.

But...

If I win, I'll live.

And the only way to win is to fight!

Hey!

Your way with words is the real disappointment.

You actually considered that motivational...

I blame you for this, Eren...!

Hey! Since when were we taught to let our comrades fight alone?!

Or do you guys want to end up as actual cowards?!

Never thought I'd hear him say that.

Come on, you cowards, weaklings, and morons!

Those guys...

Damn it...

All right, let's do it!

Hurry!

Follow Mikasa!

Fight as little as possible!

Get to HQ before you run out of gas!

Man, Mikasa's incredible...

How can she move so fast?!

No! She's using up too much gas!

She's going to run out right away!

Regardless of our skill, once we lose our mobility we're completely helpless!

She's not her usual, composed self at all!

She's trying to distract herself from her anguish!

It's only a matter of time until she...!

Mikasa!

Damn!

Jean!

You take the lead!

I'll help Armin!

- No, I will too!
- Don't be stupid!

There are still Titans everywhere!

Your skills are needed!

Again...

It's this again...

I've lost my family again...

Do I have to revisit this pain...

...and start all over from here again?

It's no use. We can't even get near Headquarters.

Unless we're prepared to die...

Crap! He's out of gas!

Stay back!

- Tom! I'll save you!
- No!

It's too late!

Stop!

Why couldn't I stop them...?

Why didn't I stop them?

If I'd made them stop, this wouldn't have happened...

Am I really cut out for this?

Am I really fit to have a position of responsibility?!


No!

This world is cruel.

And...

...very beautiful.

It's been a nice life.

Huh?

Why?

I was sure I'd given up...

Why... am I standing up?

Why... am I struggling?

What for?

After all...

There's no point in living anymore...

So what's driving me?

Fight!

Fight! Fight!

Eren...

Fight!

You have to fight!

Fight!

Fight!

I'm sorry, Eren...

I won't give up anymore...

I'll never give up again...

If I die...

...I'll lose my memories of you too, on top of everything else.

So...

...I'll do whatever it takes to win!

Whatever it takes to live!

What just happened?!

A Titan...

...is k*lling...

...another Titan...

Please, Mikasa!

Be all right!

Mikasa!

Mikasa! Are you all right?!

- You two okay?!
- Yeah!

We gotta get out of here!

Crap! Two -meter ones!

No, that Titan is...

Huh?!

I-It finished it off?!

It was actually aware of its weak spot?!

We gotta get out of here!

Before it comes this way!

No, it's not reacting to us.

Any other one would att*ck us for sure...

It seemed to grasp the concept of hand-to-hand combat too.

Just what is it...?

All we can do is chalk it up as an Abnormal!

We barely know anything about 'em, after all.

Now let's just hurry to HQ!

Wait! Mikasa's completely out of gas!

Huh?!

Whoa, are you serious?!

Now what are we gonna do?!
We need you!

The answer's obvious!

I don't have much left...

...but hurry and switch yours with mine!

Armin!

This is our only option!

It'll amount to nothing if I keep it.

Just...

Use it carefully this time.

Everyone's lives are riding on it.

I took charge without any sense of responsibility for their lives...

For a short time, I had even thrown away my own life...

All for my own personal reasons.

I'm...

There!

Your mobility gear still works, and I've given you all my blades.

All I ask is that you leave me with this one...

I'd rather not get eaten alive, if I can help it.

N-No way...

Armin.

I'm not leaving you here.

Back there...

...I was completely confused.

I'd never heard of a Titan k*lling another Titan before.

But I also felt a faint glimmer of elation.

Because what I saw...

...looked like the manifestation of humankind's anger.

Your dreams are where your heart is

They're more fragile than life itself

Over and over you cast them aside, only to find more

Now, rest in peace

Pounding impulses defile the things we wish for

and the more we forget the more we remember again

In this beautiful, cruel world

all I can do is ask why we're still alive

Oh, with our strength... and our weakness...

what are we going to protect if there's no sense

to anything anymore?

A Titan that kills other Titans.

The sight of it leaves the th Cadet Corps Class awestruck and breathless.

What ultimately appears before them, though, is...
