[01:38] In
    You there!
[01:40] Ar
    Yes, sir!
[01:41] In
    Who are you?
[01:42] Ar
    Armin Arlert, from Zhiganshina!
[01:46] In
    Yeah? That's a stupid name.
[01:48] In
    Your parents give you that?
[01:49] Ar
    My grandfather!
[01:51] In
    Arlert, what are you doing here?
[01:54] Ar
    Trying to aid humanity's victory!
[01:56] In
    That is indeed wonderful...
[01:57] In
    Then you will feed the Titans.
[01:59] In
    Row 3, about face!
[02:03] In
    Who are you?
[02:04] Th
    Thomas Wagner, from Trost!
[02:07] In
    I can't hear you!
[02:09] Th
    Thomas Wagner, from—
[02:10] In
    Too soft! Go practice in the cattle shed!
[02:10] Old
    There he goes...
[02:12] Old
    When you were a trainee,
[02:12] In
    You, next!
[02:14] Old
    your first day was just the same.
[02:14] Mina
    Mina Karolina, from Karanes!
[02:15] Young
    It brings back memories.
[02:17] Th
    Wrong!
[02:18] Th
    You are from the pig shed, worth less than cattle.
[02:20] Mi
    Yes, sir! I am less than cattle!
[02:22] In
    No, you're a fly, swarming around a pig's ass!
[02:23] Young
    What's the point of screaming at them?
[02:25] Old
    It's a rite of passage.
[02:25] Mi
    Yes, sir!
[02:26] Old
    We force them to abandon who they are,
[02:26] In
    Next!
[02:27] Sam
    Samuel Linke-Jackson, from Snate Village!
[02:28] ---
    then raise them from nothing as pure soldiers.
[02:31] In
    A horrible name! Change it now!
[02:33] In
    What are you doing here?
[02:33] Old
    It is a necessary process.
[02:35] Sam
    Sacrificing myself for humanity!
[02:37] In
    Row 4, about face!
[02:40] Young
    It seems not all of them are
    being subjected to that process.
[02:43] In
    Listen up! I've seen a lot of shit in my time,
[02:43] Old
    There is no need for those who have
    already undergone the rite of passage.
[02:45] ---
    but you are the sorriest pieces
    of shit I've ever seen.
[02:47] Old
    If I were to guess,
[02:47] In
    You're in for three years of hell!
[02:49] Old
    they probably lived through hell two years ago.
[02:52] Old
    You can see it in their eyes.
[02:54] Old
    Now, let's go.
[02:56] In
    Who are you?!
[02:58] Kid
    Jean Kirschstein, from Trost!
[03:00] In
    What are you doing here?
[03:03] Kid
    Joining the Military Police,
    for a life deep within the walls.
[03:08] In
    Oh, I see...
[03:09] In
    You want access to the Interior?
[03:11] Kid
    Yes.
[03:14] In
    Who said you could sit down?!
[03:16] In
    Anyone who can't handle this
[03:18] ---
    will never make the Military Police!
[03:21] In
    Who are you?
    What are you doing here?
[03:23] Marco
    Marco Bott, Jinae City, Wall Rose South District!
[03:26] Marco
    I want to join the Military Police,
[03:28] ---
    to offer the King my body and self in service!
[03:31] In
    Really...
[03:33] In
    I'm glad to hear that.
[03:35] In
    Good luck.
[03:37] In
    However...
[03:40] In
    The King doesn't want your body.
[03:45] In
    Next! You!
[03:47] In
    Who are you?
[03:48] Connie
    Connie Springer, of Ragako Village,
    Wall Rose South District!
[03:53] In
    You're doing it wrong, Connie Springer...
[03:55] In
    I explained that this salute demonstrates
[03:59] ---
    your resolve to devote your
    entire heart to the people.
[04:03] In
    Is your heart on your right side?
[04:15] In
    Hey, you...
[04:17] In
    What are you doing?
[04:23] In
    You're the one I'm talking to! You!
[04:25] In
    Who are you?!
[04:29] Sasha
    Sasha Blause, from Dauper village,
    Wall Rose South District!
[04:34] In
    Sasha Blause,
[04:36] In
    what are you holding in your right hand?
[04:39] Sasha
    A boiled potato!
[04:41] Sasha
    The kitchen had a fresh batch, and I couldn't resist.
[04:44] In
    Did you steal it?
[04:47] In
    Why?
[04:48] In
    Why would you choose to eat a potato now?
[04:51] Sa
    Letting it get cold would've been a waste,
[04:54] ---
    so I decided I should eat it now.
[04:57] In
    Well, I still don't understand...
[05:00] In
    Why would you eat that potato?
[05:04] Sa
    Are you asking me why people eat potatoes?
[05:23] Sa
    You can have half...
[05:27] In
    Half...
[05:34] Con
    He's still making that potato girl run.
[05:37] E
    Wow, five straight hours?
[05:41] E
    But she seemed more distraught
    when told she wouldn't get dinner
[05:44] ---
    than when told she must run until she dropped.
[05:49] E
    If I remember correctly,
[05:50] E
    Dauper Village is a tiny hunting
    village, deep in the mountains.
[05:55] E
    What's that?
[05:56] Mi
    The dropouts.
[05:58] Mi
    They requested a transfer, to the frontier.
[06:00] Ar
    What? But it's only the first day.
[06:03] E
    It was only a matter of time.
[06:05] E
    If you aren't strong enough,
    you have to leave.
[06:09] E
    Hard to believe they'd rather go back
    to weeding and picking up rocks.
[06:14] Ma
    Hey, he didn't ask where
    you were from, did he?
[06:17] E
    Zhiganshina, the same as him.
[06:21] Ma
    I see... That's...
[06:23] Co
    Then, weren't you there that day?
[06:25] Ma
    H-Hey...
[06:26] Co
    Did you see the Colossal Titan?
[06:29] E
    Y-Yeah...
[06:34] E
    I already told you I saw it.
[06:38] Th
    Really?
[06:39] Sa
    How big was it?
[06:41] E
    Big enough to look over the walls.
[06:43] Daz
    What? I heard it stepped right over them.
[06:46] Hanna
    Me, too!
[06:47] Franz
    That's what they said in my village.
[06:49] E
    No, it wasn't that tall.
[06:51] Mina
    What did it look like?
[06:54] E
    It barely had any skin,
    but it had a huge mouth.
[06:57] Daz
    What about the Armored Titan
    that broke Wall Maria?
[07:01] E
    They call it that,
[07:02] E
    but it looked like a normal Titan to me.
[07:05] Daz
    Th-Then what's a normal Titan like?
[07:16] Ma
    Guys, let's stop with the questions.
[07:19] Ma
    I'm sure he'd prefer to forget some things.
[07:22] Co
    I'm sorry for asking—
[07:23] E
    Don't be!
[07:29] E
    The Titans aren't all that tough...
[07:32] E
    If we can master
    the Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear,
[07:36] ---
    they won't stand a chance!
[07:38] E
    Finally, I'm able to train as a soldier...
[07:41] E
    I was just so excited, I forgot myself for a second.
[07:44] E
    I'm joining the Survey Corps, so I can
    wipe the Titans off the face of this earth.
[07:49] E
    I'll kill them all—
[07:50] John
    Hey, are you nuts?
[07:53] John
    Did you just say you want
    to join the Survey Corps?
[07:57] E
    Yeah, I did.
[07:59] E
    And you said you wanted to join the
    Military Police to take it easy, right?
[08:04] John
    I'm no liar...
[08:06] John
    I'm a straight talker, unlike someone
    who pretends to have balls of steel,
[08:10] ---
    even when he's about to piss himself.
[08:13] E
    Are you talking about me?
[08:15] Ar
    D-Don't...
[08:17] Jo
    Hey, I didn't...
[08:29] Jo
    Well, I'm sorry.
[08:31] Jo
    I didn't want to say you're
    doing the wrong thing.
[08:35] Jo
    Peace?
[08:38] E
    Yeah.
[08:39] E
    I'm sorry, too.
[08:56] John
    Hey, you...
[08:58] John
    W-W-Well, uh...
[09:02] John
    It's just that you look
    different than the rest of us.
[09:06] John
    I'm s-sorry...
[09:08] John
    Your hair is very pretty.
[09:11] M
    Thank you.
[09:21] E
    I'm fine, leave me alone.
[09:24] M
    You're always so impulsive when you're riled up.
[09:26] E
    This again?
[09:28] E
    Anyway, isn't your hair a little long?
[09:32] E
    It could cause an accident when you're
    practicing with the Maneuver Gear.
[09:36] E
    Very well.
[09:37] E
    I'll cut it.
[09:39] E
    But how short should it be?
[09:46] Co
    H-Hey!
[09:47] Co
    That's my shirt!
[09:49] Co
    What did you wipe on my shirt?
[09:53] John
    My trust.
[09:59] Sasha
    Finally done...
[10:22] Sasha
    This is...
[10:24] Sasha
    Bread!
[10:25] Crysta
    That's all I could get, but I saved it for you...
[10:29] Crysta
    But you should drink some water first.
[10:37] Sasha
    Are you god?!
[10:39] Sasha
    God!
[10:41] Freckles
    Hey, what are you two doing?
[10:45] Crysta
    Um, she spent the whole day running...
[10:49] Freckles
    So you're trying to do a good deed?
[10:59] Freckles
    Did you do that for the potato girl?
[11:02] Freckles
    Was the effort worth what you got out of it?
[11:09] Freckles
    Well, it doesn't matter...
[11:11] Freckles
    Anyway, I'm carrying her to bed.
[11:16] Crysta
    Are you doing a good deed, too?
[11:19] Sasha
    I'm doing her a favor so she'll owe me.
[11:22] Sasha
    I'm looking forward to
    a lot of fun from this idiot.
[11:29] In
    First, we'll evaluate what you have!
[11:32] In
    Anyone unable to do this can't
    even serve as a decoy!
[11:35] In
    They will be sent to the frontier.
[11:38] Old
    These involve only the rudimentary basics,
[11:41] ---
    but even at this stage, you can see their
    potential with the Maneuver Gear.
[11:45] Old
    Look.
[11:47] Old
    She's steady as a rock.
[11:49] Old
    She knows exactly what to do.
[11:53] Old
    That's what I mean by potential.
[11:56] Old
    Looks like we have a lot of talent this year.
[11:59] Young
    Um, what about him?
[12:02] Old
    That's exactly my point.
[12:05] Old
    You may have the will,
[12:07] ---
    but not necessarily the talent.
[12:11] In
    What are you doing, Eren Jaeger?!
[12:13] In
    Pick yourself up!
[12:16] E
    What is this?
[12:17] E
    How am I supposed to do this?
[12:20] E
    This can't be happening...
SIGN    Information We Can Share So Far: Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear Training (1) Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear Training is a difficult process, meant to force the trainee to adapt from moving in a flat 2D plane to a 3D space.
SIGN    Information We Can Share So Far: Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear Training (2) High endurance, strong legs, good spatial awareness, and nerves of steel are requisites.
[12:34] M
    Stick to the basics, and you should be fine.
[12:37] M
    Don't worry about doing well.
[12:40] M
    Watch the balance and stay centered.
[12:42] M
    Slowly rest your weight on the belts
    attached to your hips and feet.
[12:46] Ar
    Stay calm, and you can do it.
[12:48] Ar
    I was able to.
[12:50] M
    Okay, I think I can do it this time!
[12:53] M
    Raise me, Armin!
[13:10] Ma
    Hey, Daz...
[13:11] ---
    Isn't that the kid
[13:12] ---
    from yesterday who said
    he'd kill all the Titans?
[13:16] Daz
    Well, I bet he'll be off to the frontier tomorrow.
[13:19] Daz
    We don't have enough food
    to feed worthless rejects.
[13:22] M
    Eren...
[13:24] Ar
    There's no point in worrying.
[13:26] Ar
    You just have to figure it out tomorrow.
[13:29] E
    I'm pathetic...
[13:31] E
    I'll never be able to kill them all like this.
[13:35] M
    You should let that idea go.
[13:38] E
    What?!
[13:40] M
    You should give up on being a soldier.
[13:43] M
    There are other ways to fight than
    by throwing away your life.
[13:47] E
    Listen here...
[13:48] E
    I saw what happened that day!
[13:51] E
    You really think you'll convince me this way?
[13:54] M
    But it doesn't matter how much you want it.
[13:58] E
    Why not?
[13:59] M
    It isn't your decision whether you
    end up a soldier or not, Eren.
[14:11] M
    I'm not saying you should return
    to the frontier alone.
[14:12] E
    Let's go, Armin.
[14:13] Ar
    S-Sure.
[14:16] M
    Don't worry...
[14:18] M
    I will go with you.
[14:26] Sasha
    Um, anyway...
[14:29] Sasha
    So, can I take that?
[14:51] Co
    The trick to staying upright?
[14:53] Co
    Sorry, but I'm a genius.
[14:55] Co
    All I can say is to feel it.
[14:57] John
    Actually, I'd like you to tell me...
[15:00] ---
    How are you still sane, after you
    humiliated yourself like that?
[15:05] E
    Guys, I'm begging you here...
[15:08] Co
    But didn't you say just yesterday
[15:10] ---
    something like, "People who aren't
    strong enough should leave"?
[15:14] Co
    Am I wrong?
[15:16] Co
    Or was it, "If you don't have the
    talent, you have to leave"?
[15:19] Co
    Which was it?
[15:21] M
    Please!
[15:22] M
    I've heard you two are really good!
[15:25] M
    Bertolt... Reiner!
[15:27] Ber
    Sorry, but I can't imagine any
    trick to just hanging there.
[15:32] Ber
    I don't think I can give you the
    advice you're looking for.
[15:35] E
    Okay...
[15:36] Ar
    We'll just have to hope for the best tomorrow.
[15:40] Re
    You two are from Zhiganshina, aren't you?
[15:44] Ar
    Yes... Why?
[15:45] Re
    Then you should know how
    terrifying the Titans are.
[15:49] Re
    Why did you decide to be soldiers?
[15:53] Ar
    I'm not like Eren.
[15:55] Ar
    I didn't see them at close range.
[16:00] Ar
    But when I thought about how the government
[16:03] ---
    forced people into that insane plan
    to retake Titan territory,
[16:06] Ar
    I had to do something.
[16:08] Re
    I see.
[16:09] Ar
    Where are you two from?
[16:12] Be
    Reiner and I come from a small village
    in the mountains of southeast Wall Maria.
[16:17] Ar
    But... That means...
[16:19] Be
    Yeah.
[16:21] Be
    It isn't like the big towns by the rivers...
[16:23] ---
    The news was slow to reach us.
[16:25] Be
    In fact, the Titans reached us first.
[16:30] Be
    It was dawn...
[16:33] Be
    The animals were unusually restless,
[16:35] ---
    and we heard a rumbling
    we'd never heard before.
[16:40] Be
    Eventually, as it got louder,
    we realized it was the sound of footsteps.
[16:44] Be
    And when I rushed to open the window...
[16:56] Be
    Beyond that,
[16:58] Be
    I don't really remember.
[17:02] Be
    Everyone was in a panic.
[17:03] Re
    Hey...
[17:04] Re
    Why are you discussing this now?
[17:07] Be
    I'm sorry...
[17:08] ---
    What I meant to say is this:
[17:11] ---
    you aren't like the others.
[17:15] Ar
    The others?
[17:17] Be
    Those here who don't understand how
    terrifying the Titans really are.
[17:20] Re
    Enough.
[17:28] Be
    The vast majority are here
    because they don't want to lose face.
[17:34] Be
    Told they'd be admitting they were
    cowards if they chose to be workers
[17:38] ---
    after turning twelve,
    they became trainees.
[17:42] Be
    But we're not really so different.
[17:46] Be
    We chose this hoping to join the Military Police
    because they're safe, deep in the Interior.
[17:51] Be
    If that doesn't work, we may just give it all up.
[17:55] Be
    I don't have any will of my own...
[17:59] Ar
    There's nothing wrong with valuing your own life.
[18:07] Re
    I just want
[18:08] Re
    to return to the homeland I lost.
[18:11] Re
    That's all I have left to go on.
[18:15] Re
    I'm going back, no matter what.
[18:20] Be
    You...
[18:22] Be
    Why did you become a soldier?
[18:26] E
    I...
[18:33] E
    I decided I had to kill them.
[18:36] E
    I had to kill all the Titans myself...
[18:40] E
    That was what I decided.
[18:47] Be
    So even after seeing the Titans,
    you didn't surrender to despair?
[18:51] E
    No.
[18:52] E
    Though I don't know if
    I can even become a soldier now.
[19:17] Be
    Review and recheck everything,
    starting with your belt.
[19:19] Be
    Tomorrow will go fine.
[19:22] Be
    You can do it.
[19:24] Be
    Eren Jaeger, was it?
[19:27] E
    Yes, thank you.
[19:30] E
    Reiner Braun, right?
[19:42] In
    Eren Jaeger, are you ready?
[19:45] E
    Yes!
[19:47] E
    I'll do this...
[19:48] E
    I can do this!
[19:50] E
    I may not have talent,
[19:53] ---
    but I have more guts than anyone.
[19:57] In
    Begin!
[20:06] E
    I don't know the theory...
[20:07] E
    I don't have any evidence.
[20:09] E
    But this is all I've got!
[20:13] E
    This is my weapon!
[20:21] E
    I did it.
[20:22] E
    I did it!
[20:33] E
    N-Not yet...
[20:35] E
    I'm not giving up yet!
[20:39] In
    Put him down.
[20:45] E
    I... I...
[20:49] E
    Wagner, change belts with Jaeger.
[20:52] T
    Y-Yes, sir.
[21:01] In
    Your equipment was defective.
[21:04] In
    The fitting on your belt was damaged.
[21:08] In
    I've never heard of this part getting damaged.
[21:12] In
    I'll have to add it to the maintenance checklist.
[21:15] Sam
    So, he managed to stay upright for
    a bit, even with a broken belt?
[21:18] Franz
    Wow...
[21:20] E
    Th-Then, did I pass?
[21:24] In
    You're fine.
[21:25] In
    Commence training.
[21:28] E
    I did it! I really did it!
[21:31] E
    Did you see that, Mikasa?
[21:32] E
    I can do this!
[21:34] E
    I can fight the Titans!
[21:37] E
