Attack on Titan season 3 just debut one of the biggest, goriest, and overall best episodes of the entire series - and in a season that's been as excellent as this one, that's really saying something!

Episode 46, "Ruler of the Walls" saw the Eren, Levi, Erwin and the rest of the Scout Regiment launch a desperate bid to stop the threat of the Rod Reiss Titan, before it can reach and demolish the walls of Orvud District. That plan required a major gamble of human life, as Erwin decides to skip evacuation in favor of luring the Reiss Titan into a trap. That trap involves a surprise attack from Eren in titan form, wielding Wiley E. Coyote style explosives, and a major stepping up by Historia Reiss, who has now solidified her place as one of Attack on Titan's most badass characters.

After all the drama, thrilling action, and totally gross scenes of the Rod Reiss Titan at work, Attack on Titan fans have a lot to react to. Check out what they're now saying:

To call this episode of Attack on Titan "edge of your seat" thrilling would be an understatement.

It may be back to school season, but Attack on Titan is the only education that some fans need.

Fans Buzzing Like...

Apparently this episode has fans talking - nonstop.

Hold My Beer

Tokyo Ghoul used to be the anime gore G.O.A.T. Used to be.

True Fears

"Trypophobia" is a real-life phobia in which people are scared of, or sickened by, the sight of closely packed holes, which made the Rod Reiss Titan even more horrifying.

Everything Is Awesome
