nope post irrelevant, youre just an action junkie who cant handle real plot development and youre mad that your favorite anime is no longer top and SNK is selling 3x better
youre just a mad hater, good riddance if you drop this show, you wont be missed

this part here was in size 20 text in my previous post
the funny thing is, ive actually had every single line in that comment replied to me at one point or another from snk fanboys

on topic, i completely agree with you

For a second I was about to facepalm but then I saw the other part and I lol'd at how accurate this is.

On a side note, I won't drop the show, if only to see if they can somehow pull themselves out of the hole they've dug.


and if anything, ill come to these threads just because you dont like it, and you never have anything constructive against mine, or anyone else who posts against SNK's posts. its always the same old stock answer with you.

let me guess, youre going to reply to me and the 3 or 4 other people on the last page calling them mad haters as well then say its because their favorite shows are no longer top? even that stupid argument wont work, i happen to be a clannad AS/Steins gate fan anyway

Why not?
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.
Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers.

That was actually to be addressed to the both of you and both of those series you mentinoed were at one time under SNK so yes it does work.

is this kid serious?
honestly?

they were both below snk at a time?
jesus im having trouble comprehending how you could say something so illogical.
for as long as SNK has existed neither steins gate or clannad AS have ever been below SNK. ever.
and by that incredibly daft logic, are you saying all the shows that were above snk the moment it was ranked on the leaderboards are all still rated higher since snk was under them 'at one time'

seriously. think before you post.
the irony in the parts i highlighted was the fact that you SNK fans always post the same shit, you went right ahead and proved that

People are complaining about the pace because very little has progressed after a substantial stretch of episodes. Honestly, the characters are too simplistic in their characterization and emotional range, and aren't really that deep. The best parts of the show are the battles between humans and titans, and Eren in titan form. All the other stuff kind of feels like angst and tragedy fodder, not to say it is bad or anything, but it does drag.

It's problematic when a single battle takes up more than 8 episodes when the show is reportedly scheduled for 25. There is still a lot that hasn't been explained, and instead of getting answers the unexplained stuff is continuing to pile up. There is no way the show can give any kind of fulfilling resolution continuing at this pace much longer.
Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone.

well..... first of all I'm not a "super-fan" of SnK at least not yet orz

I do also feel is a bit slow but it isnt THAT bad .-. (I feel this way because of the recent anime I watched and they were way to fast: Karneval, Arata, etc....)

I don't understand, this is going on accordingly to what happened in the manga with no filler. Like it pisses you kids off because it's not deviating from the actual story and that you want to cut out stuff that is written?

What satisfy you babies, really. You hate a series that strays away from the manga I would understand but when it goes true to adaptation you guys complain, what a joke.
Just admit it you just want more but unfortunately you have to wait a week so you have to find ways to slander a show.

My only complain is the constant repeating summary in the beginning. That's probably why things get slower. Other than that, the pace is just fine to me.


This raised to the 20th degree. 3.5 minutes of review last episode including credits. That is 15% of the show. Add in another 10% for ending credits and preview, and well that sort of explains the pacing issues.

Another point I would raise is that non-stop action ironically gets boring after a while. Particularly when the enemy has no personality.

if you read any page of the thread its obvious its pissing people off because its dragging on far too long, theres been at least 10 detailed explanations in the last 3 pages.
its not about wanting more. its about the fact that 1 episode is covering next to nothing.

im not going to explain further, read the last 3 pages and youll see why

I wouldn't complain about that in particular and I doubt anyone sensible would, but I find that the slow pacing is more tolerable in manga format than it is in anime format. In the manga I can get through a chapter in about 10 minutes at most, but the anime's got a little over 20 minutes of material per episode covering only around 1.5 chapters or so.

But meh I didn't read through this whole thing so I wouldn't know if someone bitched at that specifically.

Re: AirStyles

Some topics are this informative when Miss Bingley, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, and Mrs. Bennet didn't go bowling :D

The only complain I have is that IG didn't take the project seriously enough. It's up to them to produce whatever shit they want, but I think they should have waited for a Fall season release of SnK, instead of rushing the production and barely coping with the week releases.

Pixis shouting da plan to errybody and comin' up with this speech to reinvigorate all the soldiers who wanted to run away, people talking about the plan, Titan Eren goin' berserk, human Eren seein' this illusion of himself at home, the elite soldiers arguing about protecting/abandoning Eren, Armin cutting a hole around the Titan weak spot to talk to Eren, after a lotta the aforementioned shiz with Armin Eren decides to lift the rock, yay the hole is sealed

Ah, and some stuff with Jean and broken gear.

Edit: Aaaand Eren tells Levi he wants to join the Recon Corps.

actually, 5cm per second was 1 hour 2 minutes, and covered a 15 year timespan with a brilliant amount of character development, fantastic animation, and amazing melancholic OST. in the same amount of time, eren was still dawdling and the cast was still monologue'in for around 1 hour 12 mins.

dont compare something as great as 5cm/s to this.

infact, the amount of recaps in those 3 episodes alone is about equal to an entire chapter of 5cm/s now that i think about it

Why? Because the pacing is about as bad as anything I've ever seen. Cue the idiots coming here to tell me that I'm an action junkie and don't like character development... except all this stupid show has been is mindless action and the reason I'm bitching is because the character development is atrocious when it exists, and it barely exists at all. Ham-fisted and heavy-handed.

The Trost battle has taken 8 episodes... EIGHT EPISODES! What the fuck is that? We've achieved like three fucking plot points in all that time. They literally waste entire episodes on completely irrelevant and meaningless bullshit just to create cheesy "drama" and I'm starting to think that whoever made this pile has never even heard of dramatic tension. I was seriously laughing at the scene where Armin (still useless) was giving yet another speech to Eren about why he fights... as if we haven't already established like 10,000 times why Eren fights. And then they have Eren give another speech right after. And what is it about? You guessed it: why he fights...

And this is all BAD PACING. It's the creators and directors and writers wanting to form-fit the show to the right amount of episodes without thinking if whether it even fits with that episode structure. It takes sooooo long to do anything in this show. If all that time was spent actually DOING SOMETHING (I don't mean action) then I wouldn't mind, but it is 99% of the time characters repeating themselves. It would be fascinating if it wasn't so atrocious. If the manga actually has all these scenes than that is pathetic. Straight up. This wouldn't pass in a Creative Writing 101 class...

The mindless action and the "we have to reiterate everything one million times" are the two biggest flaws in this show, and they've become so huge that they make it almost a joke. The pacing of this thing is laughable.



I agree with him 100%. I couldn't care less about SNK or any other anime being in the top anime list. This anime has serious pacing issues. It had a good potential but it's screwed up because of pacing and plot progession issues. They are just wasting screen time with crap that noone wants to see (oh sorry except some fanboys).

While it's still not the worst anime, highly overrated. And please stop being retard just because he doesn't like the same show you like.

You know for the first 8 or 9 episodes, I didn't mind it all that much because it was the beginning of the series and I forgave the show for being redundant a little.

But they STILL continue to do this. The scene where Eren transforms and attacks Mikasa (still a boring character) and Armin tries to talk sense into him, giving him a speech as to why he's fighting. "To go outside." I mean, we know this. Just move on. Trost could have been about half as long if they didn't pull this off. If shit like this continues, I may as well drop the show.
