The tone is completely different.


The reason I'm not watching the anime is because I figured that people are not capable of creating the appropriate tension from the manga in these days of fast food anime.

I know right, I mean have you seen the opening? The animation is shit! And, its so stupid!

Here, a new version... which isn't really better.
This is actually better than the anime OP.
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives.

The tone is completely different. Relationships between characters are different, especially between Mikasa and Eren. It seems too lighthearted for a post-apocalyptic anime. I could (but won't) write paragraphs about the anime, but this isn't the right place for it. But this is only 3 episodes of a 2 cour show. I won't hold it against the series. We'll see where it heads.
The tone doesn't seem any different, they just added the training arc earlier. And I don't see how the relationship between Mikasa and Eren has changed and like you said it's only been 3 episodes.

I disagree. I found the first two episodes to be pretty intense, the 3rd one not so much but it's next to impossible to keep the same tone that long. I have not read the manga, however, so I don't know how it is as an adaptation.

General summary of SnK:

"We shall see in the later episodes."

OP, I hope you're happy it somehow derailed itself. Congratulations for doing that.

Well, if you want me to elaborate about the relationship between Mikasa and Eren, I'll say that the anime doesn't manage to depict Eren's resentment for Mikasa in the training arc and how he hates how she babies him. I'll let pictures speak for me on this case.

The tone... Well, this might just be my opinion, but it all seems over-dramatized. I'm not going to call it melodramatic, but just more than there needs to be. Sometimes less is more.

Hmmm well it sounds like you're talking about the art, how he looks like he has a slight smile in the anime compared to being kind of scared looking in the manga? Then I agree that it's a little different, but it didn't take anything away from the scene and definitely not the episode.

Or are you talking about how the words are different? In those manga pages she talked about how he didn't have to stay close to her anymore and the anime says how he gets to stay with her. I think the translation is off on one of those.

It was what Mikasa said. It could very well be the translation, but I doubt it due to the difference in her facial expressions between the manga and anime version, even though that is not something that you can hold into account with 100% certainty. I'm going to give it a few days and check out a different sub group's version to see if it's any different.

Yeah I think he did, although I didn't really check if all 3000+ comments said "Congratulations," I gave up after 2 or 3 mins of scrolling.

Ok, well the art in the manga was odd, I wouldn't be surprised if there are other instances of them being a little different. Though the anime changing the message to the exact opposite would be weird, I'm mostly siding with the anime because it's easier to translate through listening and the manga had all those added little localizations.

Yeah and wait a couple episodes, anyways this isn't the place for this. See you in the SnK board one of these days.

Not all, some of them are "congratulations" in penguin language.

Thanks. Now I know I won't have to check nyaa; I can just look at one of your posts to tell if the latest episode is out :P

Meh.. not hard to remember the title for this. Checking if Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru. is out or not, though, is a different matter.
