Fun Fact about the Eren Vs Reiner round two scene!
Added 2022-01-27 16:30:14 +0000 UTCHello everyone! So I’m currently editing episode 14 for YouTube, and I asked my Ju Jitsu expert dad about this grappling moment, I suspected it was a Kimora, and it turns out it’s a really accurate version, as Eren used it to sweep the Armored Titan off himself so the scouts could use the thunderspears! Pretty neat bit of accuracy from Attack on Titan!

Yep! Definitely the defining part of this move haha, but it’s the variation and location that makes it a Kimora!

2022-01-27 21:31:21 +0000 UTCYeah. I saw Frank Mir be the 1st person to submit Minotauro Nogueira in their 2nd fight. He got hurt and almost tko’d but when they were on the ground he was able to lock up a Kimura. Nogueira didn’t tap until Mir broke his arm with it. One the the best comeback wins I’ve ever seen. When he 1st locked it on too, Noguiera rolled over on top and Mir, still holding onto the Kimura, immediately swept him and ended up back on top again. Look it up on YouTube if you want. It was pretty cool. They also used Jiu Jitsu in Eren and Reiner’s 1st fight in season 1. If you go back and watch, they did that really well too. Hip toss take down, triangle choke attempt into an armbar, and a guillotine choke. Love the influence of MMA in the show. Annie was ahead of the curve when it came to hand to hand combat.

2022-01-27 18:27:32 +0000 UTCWow, I wonder if the studio had skilled fighters come in to do the move step by step in order to draw it perfectly in motion?
