This will be the continuation of our previous episode where we talked about seasons 1 & 2 of the anime: Attack on Titan. In this episode, we will discuss the season 3 & 4 of the anime and we will talk about our thoughts, opinions, and the theme of the anime.
This will definitely be an exciting episode as the expat couple battles out their perspective and their views about the anime. They will also talk about their favorite scenes and characters, and describe how the anime is somehow related to current events.
Attack on Titan Season 3 Summary:
The season follows Eren and his fellow soldiers from the Survey Corps who are still fighting for their survival against the terrifying Titans. However, threats arise not only from the Titans beyond the walls, but from the humans within them as well. After being rescued from the Colossal and Armored Titans, all seems well for the soldiers, until the government suddenly demands custody of Eren and Historia.
Sought after by the government, Levi and his new squad must evade their adversaries in hopes of keeping Eren and Historia safe. In the second half of the season, the Survey Corps led by Erwin embark on a mission to retake Wall Maria, returning to the tattered Shiganshina District that was once Eren's home. The Survey Corps strive to carve a path towards victory as Eren vows to take back everything that was once his.
(It covers the "Uprising" (chapters 51–70) and "Return to Shiganshina" (chapters 71–90) arcs from the original manga by Hajime Isayama.)
Attack on Titan Season 4 Summary:
The season follows Gabi Braun and Falco Grice, young Eldian Warrior candidates seeking to inherit Reiner's Armored Titan four years after the failed mission to claim the Founding Titan. Marley plans to invade Paradis to strengthen their weakening military and recover the Founding Titan. With the Survey Corps on the Marley shoreline, Gabi, Falco, Reiner, and other Titans go to war with the Paradis soldiers as Eren Jaeger reveals his new plan of attack on the Marleyan invaders: annihilation.
As both sides take a heavy death toll, both the Marleyan Warriors and the Survey Corps must question the best approach to claiming victory over the other side. Eren's comrades begin to realize that he has begun to walk down a questionable path, while Gabi and Falco must combat their internal tensions over the supposed "devils" of Paradis.
(The season covers the "Marley" (chapters 91–106) and "War for Paradis" (chapters 107–139) arcs from the original manga by Hajime Isayama.)

This episode focuses on the Japanese anime series, "Attack on Titan" season 1 and 2. We discuss our thoughts, the life lessons we can learn from the anime, and how they can relate to our own experiences. Certainly, we do not expect the Clueless Wife, Glendz, to watch this kind of show, do we? Let’s find out how she got hooked on this anime and what made her continue watching it! Moreover, we will see how the Geeky Husband, Tops, interprets this anime from a geeky perspective.

Attack on Titan Season 1 Summary:

Attack on Titan is set in a world where humanity lives inside cities surrounded by enormous walls due to the Titans, gigantic humanoid beings who devour humans. The story follows the adventures of Eren Jaeger, his childhood friends Mikasa Ackerman and Armin Arlert, whose lives are changed forever after a Colossal Titan breaches the wall of their hometown. Vowing revenge and reclaiming the world from the Titans, Eren and his friends join the Scout Regiment, an elite group of soldiers who fight the Titans.

(This covers the first story arcs (chapters 1–34) from the original manga by Hajime Isayama.)

Attack on Titan Season 2 Summary:

The season follows Eren Jaeger and his friends from the 104th Training Corps who have just begun to become full members of the Survey Corps. After fighting the Female Titan, Eren finds no time to rest as a horde of Titans is approaching Wall Rose and the battle for humanity continues. As the Survey Corps races to save the wall, they uncover more about the invading Titans and the dark secrets of their own members.

(This covers the "Clash of the Titans" arc (chapters 35–50) from the original manga by Hajime Isayama.)
