[00:04] Ar
    The year 850, in Trost...
[00:07] Ar
    The sight of Eren Jaeger unleashing
[00:10] ---
    the power of a mysterious Titan
[00:12] ---
    was more than enough to
    terrify his fellow soldiers.
[00:19] E
    I am a human!
[00:23] Ar
    He is not an enemy of humanity!
[00:26] Ar
    With my final breath before my death,
[00:28] Ar
    I shall wish for humanity's glory,
[00:31] Ar
    and try to persuade you
    of his strategic value!
[00:37] Ar
    As Eren and his friends could do nothing
    but argue their innocence,
[00:42] Ar
    they were saved by Dot Pixis,
[00:44] Ar
    the high commander of the
    southern territories.
[00:49] P
    I think we should listen to them...

[02:34] E
    I'll do it!
[02:35] E
    I don't know whether
    I can seal the hole.
[02:38] E
    But I'll do it!
[02:45] P
    Well said.
[02:47] P
    You're a real man.
[02:51] P
    I'll call my strategists.
    We'll develop a plan!
[02:55] Ar
    No way.
[02:56] ---
    That idea depends on
    so many assumptions,
[03:00] ---
    and he's just going to run with it?
[03:02] E
    I was just thinking the same thing.
[03:04] E
    But there's no sense in
    doubting his decision.
[03:08] E
    Commander Pixis must see potential
    in something the rest of us can't see.
[03:12] Ar
    Something we can't see?
[03:14] E
    Also, I think there's a bigger
    issue that must be addressed
[03:17] E
    before the plan can be executed.
[03:20] E
    And the Commander fully recognizes it.
[03:23] Ar
    What do you mean?
[03:25] E
    The Titans aren't our only enemy.
[03:29] P
    There's no time to waste.
[03:34] P
    I will need your help, young soldiers.
[03:52] Soldiers
    A plan to retake Trost?
[03:54] Soldiers
    You're kidding...
[03:55] Soldiers
    We have no way to seal that hole.
[03:58] Soldiers
    What is the brass thinking?
[04:00] Soldiers
    Going into Trost would be our deaths!
[04:02] Soldiers
    Since we can't seal the hole,
[04:04] ---
    all we can do is die
    defending Wall Rose's gate.
[04:06] Soldiers
    Damn it... They want glory that much?
[04:11] D
    I have to return to that hell?
[04:15] D
    No! I don't want to die!
[04:17] D
    Let me see my family!
[04:19] Ma
    Hey, Daz, you're being too loud...
[04:21] Officer
    You there! I heard you!
[04:23] Officer
    Are you saying you want to
    abandon your mission?
[04:26] D
    That's right!
[04:27] D
    This is nothing but mass suicide!
    It's meaningless!
[04:32] Officer
    Have you no respect for
    humanity? For order?
[04:36] Officer
    If I chose to, I could
    execute you this minute.
[04:40] D
    Go ahead...
[04:42] ---
    It's a hundred times better
    than being eaten by Titans!
[04:45] Mar
    Stop it, Daz!
[04:46] D
    No! Let me go!
[04:48] D
    I won't go back there!
[04:52] Soldiers
    Did you hear that?
[04:54] Soldiers
    Given the circumstances,
    I don't blame him...
[04:56] Soldiers
    Hey...
[04:57] Soldiers
    I hope someone rebels over here, too.
[05:00] Soldiers
    I'd at least like to choose how I die.
[05:03] Guy
    Hey!
[05:04] Soldier
    I-It was a joke!
[05:06] Guy
    Do it...
[05:08] Guy
    Be loud...
[05:10] ---
    And get others to go along!
[05:12] Guy
    In the Garrison, plenty of
    us aren't happy, either.
[05:16] Guy
    We'll take advantage
    of the chaos and leave!
[05:19] J
    Leave and go where?
[05:22] Guy
    To see my daughter.
[05:25] Guy
    Eventually, this wall will also fall.
[05:29] P
    They say that before Titans gained
    dominion over the earth,
[05:32] ---
    there was endless slaughter of human life
[05:35] ---
    in wars over race and ideology...
[05:40] P
    Then someone said,
[05:43] ---
    "If a powerful external
    threat were to appear,
[05:47] ---
    humanity would cease
    its wars and unite."
[05:52] P
    What do you think of that?
[05:54] E
    I've never heard that legend.
[05:57] E
    Sounds naïve...
[06:00] ---
    Almost silly.
[06:03] P
    You have a warped mind like mine.
[06:07] E
    Even when that powerful threat
[06:09] ---
    has pushed us to the
    brink of destruction,
[06:11] E
    we still have yet to unite.
[06:15] P
    No, but it's high time we did so.
[06:19] P
    Otherwise, we won't
    even be able to fight.
[06:29] Ha
    Eren?
[06:31] Ha
    He's safe, huh?
[06:35] Ha
    Focus on the mission?
[06:38] Ha
    How dare he address a
    superior officer that way?
[06:41] Ha
    By the look of it, Mikasa and
    Armin must be safe, as well.
[06:46] Ha
    But what's Eren doing
    with the Commander?
[06:58] P
    You want some?
[06:59] E
    Yes, please!
[07:10] D
    Kill me!
[07:11] D
    If you're going to
    execute me, do it now!
[07:12] Guy
    You're sure? I'll do it!
[07:22] P
    Attention!
[07:31] P
    I shall now explain the
    plan to retake Trost.
[07:36] P
    For this mission, our objective
[07:38] ---
    is to seal the hole where
    the gate was destroyed.
[07:48] M
    Seal it?
[07:49] M
    How?
[07:51] P
    Let me introduce you to the one
[07:54] ---
    who will seal the hole for us...
[07:57] P
    From the Trainee Corps, Eren Jaeger.
[08:02] Co
    E-Eren!
[08:05] P
    He is the result of a top-secret project
[08:07] ---
    to turn humans into Titans.
[08:11] P
    He can create and
    control a Titan's body.
[08:19] ---
    Hey...
[08:20] Co
    I have no idea what the
    Commander's talking about.
[08:23] Co
    Am I just too stupid to get it or something?
[08:25] Freckles
    Would you shut up, idiot?
[08:29] P
    He will become a Titan,
[08:30] ---
    pick up the giant boulder
    by the shattered gate,
[08:33] P
    carry it over, and seal the hole.
[08:38] P
    Your job will be
[08:41] ---
    to protect him from Titans
    while he moves the boulder!
[08:47] Gus
    We don't have to fight the Titans?
[08:49] Ar
    E-Excuse me.
[08:51] ---
    I don't mean any disrespect by
    speaking up to a ranking officer...
[08:54] Gus
    No, continue.
[08:56] Ar
    Y-Yes, sir.
[08:58] Ar
    Titans are typically drawn to pursue
    the largest number of people.
[09:03] Ar
    If we can take advantage of that
[09:05] ---
    to lure them along the walls,
[09:07] Ar
    we can draw most of them away from Eren
[09:10] ---
    without engaging them in direct combat.
[09:13] Ar
    And by using the cannons against those
[09:15] ---
    lured away, we'll
    minimize our own losses.
[09:19] Ar
    But since we can't
    leave Eren undefended,
[09:23] ---
    a small elite force should protect him.
[09:27] Ar
    And we can't avoid engaging the
    Titans that come through the wall.
[09:31] Ar
    The skills of the elite
    force will be critical.
[09:34] G
    All right, understood.
[09:36] ---
    We'll take that into account
    and revise our plans.
[09:38] Ar
    But this will only work if
    Eren can carry that boulder
[09:42] ---
    and seal the hole.
[09:45] Ar
    We are proceeding with the operation
    without certain proof that he can.
[09:48] Ar
    I cannot help but feel doubt.
[09:51] Gu
    Indeed, given the uncertainty
    of a crucial element,
[09:55] ---
    I do not relish sending many
    men to their deaths.
[09:59] Gu
    But I do understand what
    Commander Pixis is thinking.
[10:02] Ar
    Yes...
[10:03] Ar
    The first issue is one of time.
[10:05] Ar
    Even as we speak, Titans continue
    to enter the town.
[10:09] Ar
    The greater their numbers in Trost,
    the worse our odds of success in retaking it.
[10:15] Gu
    And the higher the chance
    of Wall Rose falling...
[10:20] Ar
    And one more thing.
[10:23] Ar
    There's a limit to how much one
    can be motivated by terror.
[10:31] Guys
    Lift that giant rock?
[10:33] Guys
    Is it possible?
[10:35] Guys
    Has humanity finally learned
    to control the Titans?
[10:38] D
    You're lying!
[10:39] D
    I won't put my life on the line for
    a plan I can't even understand!
[10:43] D
    What do you think we are?
[10:46] D
    We aren't...
[10:47] D
    We aren't pawns for you to sacrifice!
[10:50] Guys
    A human weapon?
[10:51] Guys
    He's lying!
[10:53] Guys
    He thinks we're fools!
[10:54] Guys
    He's telling us to die here, today!
[10:56] Guys
    I'm leaving!
[11:01] Guys
    Me, too.
[11:02] Guys
    And me!
[11:03] Guys
    I'm out of here, as well!
[11:05] Officer
    Wait!
[11:06] Officer
    You'll get the death penalty for this!
[11:08] D
    I'll spend humanity's last
    hours with my family!
[11:12] I
    This is bad.
[11:14] R
    Yes.
[11:15] R
    If we don't do something,
    there will be chaos.
[11:18] K
    Ready to die, traitors?!
[11:21] K
    I'll kill you right now!
[11:25] P
    Here is my decision!
[11:27] P
    I shall pardon anyone who deserts now.
[11:32] P
    Once you succumb to the Titans' fear,
[11:35] ---
    you can never fight them again.
[11:38] P
    Those who have learned
    that fear should leave.
[11:42] P
    And anyone wishing their
    parents, siblings,
[11:47] ---
    and loved ones to feel that
    fear should also leave!
[12:00] Girl
    Daddy!
[12:04] Guy
    I can't do that...
[12:07] Guy
    My daughter is my...
[12:11] Guy
    My last hope.
[12:16] P
    Let me tell you what
    happened four years ago.
[12:19] P
    About our attempt to retake Wall Maria.
[12:22] P
    As I'm sure you're all aware,
[12:26] P
    that operation was no more
    than the government's way
[12:29] ---
    of dealing with its inability
    to feed all of the unemployed.
[12:33] ---
    It was a culling.
[12:37] P
    The reason no one speaks
    of it is because
[12:40] ---
    by sending them outside
    these cramped walls,
[12:43] ---
    we were able to survive within them.
[12:51] P
    All of humanity, including myself,
    bears the weight of that sin!
[12:55] P
    Because so few escaped Wall Maria,
[12:59] ---
    there was never any open rebellion.
[13:01] P
    But what about now?
[13:04] P
    If Wall Rose falls,
[13:06] ---
    the sacrifice will be more
    than just twenty percent.
[13:11] P
    The territory within Wall Sina
[13:13] ---
    won't support even half
    the remaining population.
[13:17] P
    If humanity falls,
[13:19] P
    it won't be because we were
    devoured by the Titans.
[13:23] P
    It will be because we killed each other.
[13:27] P
    We must not die even
    deeper within the walls.
[13:32] P
    I beg of you
[13:34] ---
    to die right here!
[13:44] E
    I don't know if I can use the
    Titan's power to lift that boulder.
[13:50] E
    But I understand what I must do...
[13:54] E
    It may be a lie,
[13:56] ---
    but I must make it happen anyway.
[14:01] E
    I must become a symbol
[14:06] ---
    of hope for everyone!

[14:23] P
    I see you're all here...
[14:25] P
    You have one mission.
[14:28] P
    To guard Eren Jaeger,
[14:30] ---
    eliminating any threat that
    appears during the operation.
[14:35] P
    It will be the most dangerous and
    difficult task in the entire operation.
[14:39] P
    It's no exaggeration
[14:42] ---
    to say that humanity's fate
    rests on your shoulders.
[14:46] Riko
    Commander, may I say something?
[14:49] P
    What is it?
[14:50] Riko
    Does this human weapon really work?
[14:54] I
    Quiet, Riko!
[14:55] Riko
    You don't believe it, either, do you?
[14:58] Mitabi
    Commander, this operation
    depends on Eren Jaeger,
[15:01] ---
    and we know nothing about him.
[15:04] Mitabi
    If he cannot function, many soldiers
    will have died for nothing.
[15:10] P
    Well, then...
[15:12] P
    Do you really enjoy losing to
    the Titans that much?
[15:17] P
    I don't.
[15:18] P
    I hate losing more than anything.
[15:22] P
    But unfortunately, I've been
    losing for my entire life.
[15:30] P
    I want to win against the Titans...
[15:33] P
    I want to beat those giant freaks
[15:35] ---
    more than anything in the world.
[15:37] R
    S-So do we!
[15:41] P
    Then betting on him is our only option.
[15:44] P
    You're right, we know nothing about him.
[15:48] ---
    But he's the only chance we
    have to defeat the Titans.
[15:53] Gus
    Commander, it's time for the
    decoy operation to begin.
[15:59] P
    Ian Dietrich,
[16:01] P
    Riko Brzenska,
[16:03] P
    Mitabi Jarnach...
[16:04] P
    You are the Garrison's
    most elite troops.
[16:10] P
    I'm entrusting humanity's fate to you.
[16:12] All
    Yes, sir!
[16:14] P
    Ian, you take command.
[16:17] P
    You have full authority out there.
[16:21] I
    Me?
[16:23] R
    I have no objections.
[16:24] M
    Nor do I.
[16:26] I
    But I'm not capable...
[16:28] P
    Don't worry.
[16:30] P
    You're a man who knows his drinks.
[16:34] P
    You're well-acquainted with
    drink both bitter and sweet.
[16:38] P
    I'm counting on you!
[16:41] I
    Yes, sir!
[16:43] Ar
    Eren, I'm sorry...
[16:47] Ar
    I ended up making you
    responsible for everything.
[16:51] E
    It's like I said before.
[16:53] ---
    You have the ability to
    find the right answer.
[16:56] E
    I believe in that.
[16:58] Mi
    Eren, I'm going to—
[16:59] E
    Don't tell me you're going
    to come with me.
[17:02] E
    You've been assigned to the decoy team.
[17:05] Mi
    But I can't leave you alone...
[17:08] Mi
    If you're alone, you'll—
[17:08] E
    Enough!
[17:10] E
    I'm not your little
    brother or a child...
[17:13] E
    I told you that!
[17:17] I
    Ackerman,
[17:20] I
    join the elite force protecting Jaeger.
[17:24] I
    We need your skill.
[17:26] I
    Let's go... It's time!
[17:30] E
    Bye, Armin.
[17:32] E
    Don't die.
[17:33] Ar
    Yeah, you neither.
[17:49] I
    A top-secret human weapon, was it?
[17:52] I
    As long as you can seal that hole,
    it doesn't matter.
[17:54] I
    Our priority is to protect you.
[17:56] I
    We're counting on you.
[17:57] E
    Yes, sir!
[17:59] Mi
    Eren, are you feeling okay?
[18:01] E
    Yeah!
[18:04] Mi
    Eren...
[18:05] E
    I said I'm fine!
[18:07] E
    Much better than when
    we were surrounded.
[18:09] R
    We aren't playing house here, Jaeger.
[18:12] E
    I didn't mean...
[18:14] Mitabi
    I can't believe we have to
[18:16] ---
    leave humanity's fate up
    to a spoiled kid like you.
[18:20] I
    Enough, guys!
[18:22] I
    We'll soon reach the shortest
    route to the boulder.
[18:25] I
    I'm not seeing any Titans...
[18:28] I
    Everyone must have succeeded
    in luring them away.
[18:34] Leader
    Listen!
[18:35] Leader
    You only need to get them
    to the edge of town!
[18:37] Leader
    Avoid unnecessary combat!
[18:42] Riko
    Listen, Jaeger.
[18:45] Riko
    During this operation,
    more than just a few will die.
[18:50] Riko
    For you.
[18:54] Riko
    They will be our fellows,
    ranked both above and below us.
[18:59] Riko
    As soldiers, they're
    prepared to die, of course.
[19:03] Riko
    But they are not pawns without a voice.
[19:10] Leader
    Wait.
[19:15] Leader
    Not yet.
[19:17] Leader
    A little more...
[19:21] Leader
    Go!
[19:24] Riko
    They have names and families.
[19:27] Riko
    And all the feelings that those entail.
[19:30] Riko
    Alyosha, Dominic, Phine, Isabel,
[19:35] Riko
    Ludwig, Martina, Guido, Hans...
[19:38] Riko
    They're all humans as
    alive as either of us.
[19:42] Riko
    I've known some of them
    since my trainee days.
[19:47] Riko
    And today, many will die for you.
[19:53] Riko
    You have a responsibility to ensure that
    their deaths will mean something.
[19:59] Riko
    No matter what happens.
[20:02] Riko
    Never let yourself forget that.
[20:04] Riko
    And be prepared to die
    for that responsibility.
[20:08] E
    Right!
[20:10] E
    I'll do it...
[20:12] E
    I'll make this happen!
[20:17] P
    Since the Titans appeared,
    humanity has never won against them.
[20:24] P
    Their continuous advance has meant
[20:26] ---
    humanity's continuous retreat
    and loss of territory.
[20:32] P
    But when this mission succeeds,
[20:36] ---
    humanity will have retaken
    its territory from them
[20:40] ---
    for the very first time.
[20:42] I
    Right here.
[20:43] I
    Let's go!
[20:45] P
    This will be humanity's first
    victory against the Titans!
[21:02] An
    Green smoke round, confirmed.
[21:04] An
    The elite force has begun the mission.
[21:09] P
    Compared to all that humanity has lost,
    it may seem insignificant.
[21:17] P
    But for humanity, that step will be a great
    advance in our attack on the Titans!
[21:56] Mi
    I doubt a human of that size
[21:59] ---
    could lift that boulder.
[22:02] Mi
    But I believe Eren has the
    strength to lead us forward...
[22:14] Mi
    Eren?
