Attack on Titans season 4 is super hard to follow.

I watched 4 episodes and saw maybe 5 Titans in total. It's mostly giant eyed freaky looking kids training or beating each other up.

Maybe it's leading up to something good, but so far I'm dozing off through it (maybe that's the problem but the storyline isn't helping). I need to watch a video that explains how this series is connected to the previous seasons. I know it is, but it's not self-explanatory at all

I also watched Bleach, re:Zero, and a few other emo animes over the past months.

Bleach was pretty good. re:Zero was good for a while then it got way too wacky and dark in 2nd season. most recent animes are kinda too complicated and just wack

I'm caught up with the manga, hold onto the rope with the anime. I haven't watched it yet, but there should be a crucial turning point coming up soon

they are putting a lot of material into season 4, so it would not surprise me if some expository scenes are cut unfortunately

what are they doing and for whom? is the basically what i am trying to understand.

is season 4 predates all of the previous seasons? just a history lesson? that's what it sounds like so far and I'm like :uhoh:

who are you referring to? reiner?

no, season 4 starts after a time skip from the end of season 3. a couple of years later

my upper removable retainer broke in half two days ago by just touching it (as if I had a superpower). emailed the orthodontist office which I haven't been since 2015 about it on Monday and crickets. what would you do? call other places? I'd be basically a new patient either way? I feel like they will care of you for a couple of years, then you're on your own

those kids with big eyes. i can't be bothered to remember all the names. they all have big eyes in relation to their faces and appeared looks. I think I recognize that tall Titan and hard-ass Titan's characters.. you know the spies.

I don't even know who Reiner anymore. that's main character with wack dad?

time skip eh. that's wack. i hate that chit. did i tell you that i broke my Retainer?

that's strange, can you call them? idk if you live in japan or okc, but a lot of businesses are slow about responding to email. Or they may be closed due to covid.

Or just show up at their office and see what's going on

Reiner is
Spoiler:
the armored (hardass?) titan. big blonde guy. they all have daddy issues, but he also has mommy issues.

the kids are the ones who are supposed to take over the titan shifter powers, because you can only have the power for 13 years before you're cursed and die. Reiner kind of takes care of them like a big bro. and he actually is the older cousin of Gabi (girl with brown ponytail)

Time skip was disorienting at first, but things will come together soon, I think. You should know your own strength, stop hulking out on your dental equipment

Oh ok it's all coming together now tenks. Anime season 4 first 4 episodes is insanely slow. I'm pretty sure I didn't see a single titan or attack on episode 2 or 3, and 4 too.

Spoiler:
in the last moment of episode 4 I think I recognize that the main main character Eren(?) and he's older and very lifeless. it all makes sense

I thought we're only getting $600 for now bish? I'm fine with more stimulus, I wish there were great ways to get em to people who really need the money. 2k check on top of $600 would be wild, but are we just printing money now? aren't we paying for it eventually one way or another? and people who really need help probably can't be helped with a couple of checks. lots of problems

In theory, stimulus should help businesses by getting people spending money again, but yes there is a certain segment of the population that is like thousands of dollars behind in rent from not working (mostly service/entertainment industry, I think). Also I don't know how much small businesses get helped out if people just spend their money at Amazon or other big box stores.

But if you're an essential worker or working from home, finances are probably the same or even better. But I don't know if it's a good idea to means test this kind of thing, and anyways essential workers deserve the extra money for putting up with safety risks everyday.

i'm going to use that money for Crunchyroll subscription. maybe AoT will be less painful if I don't have to sit through 5 mins of Crunchyroll show ads per episode which can drive me crazy.
