I don't think so. It didn't receive the same attention as ERASED or OPM, and I haven't seen a lot of fanboys. There's quite a large number of haters though, they're the same people who hated AoT.


Actually most of the haters are salty SNK fanboys who think SNK season two was delayed for this

I've heard a few people poking fun at it (e.g. "Look, it's Attack on Train!") but not in a serious manner. This has had nowhere near the crazed overhyping nor the cancerous hatred that other recent series have.

Higher than 8.0 while only being a generic boring shounen without any good characters/story (at least so far - does not seem it will get any better) = yes it is overhyped. But that's how most of the users are. Most people like pure action without a lot of story or interesting chars. They enjoy the anime where you can do other stuff while watching it because it has no complicated story or plot where you need to concentrate. Just action.

We will just ignore the fact that SnK was not great. KnK already has a better characterisation than SnK as a whole lel.

Yes, it is already hyped as hell and the quality is just garbage... like what happens every season.


And then there's the "anti-hype movement" grabbing every single opportunity to tell everyone that it;s overhyped and it sucks (to the point where they list errors in their signature).....like what happens every season

Seriously though the anti hype movement every time something is popular is far more annoying than the hype itself

It has a really great start, but we're just 2 episodes in, so only time will tell if Kabaneri is going to be the next best thing.

Yes Kara no Kyoukai is overhyped but this show is shaping up to be a masterpiece of modern storytelling
"I like young-girl sexual creations, Lolicon is just one hobby of my many hobbies," he says.
I ask what his wife, standing nearby, thinks of his "hobby".
"She probably thinks no problem," he replies. "Because she loves young boys sexually interacting with each other."

Ugh ugh ugh, this show is so bad.
It stole everything from SnK, made a bad setting from it.
Makes the story predictable asf.
And the setting is just utterly boring.

It's the people that worked on SnK, but they believed they could make it better. So far that;s pretty much what they're doing, making a much better show. Stealing? I don't think so.

Nope. Maybe if it came out before snk it would've been. Snk brought a fresh air to the medium there weren't many or any anime like snk in this current decade had to highlight this before the keyboard geeks list series like blue gender, claymore ect. High school of the dead comes close. So people seeing this series wouldn't get that woah moment because they've seen snk doing it already.

The thing that annoys me is the snk comparison with this series, which is understandable. But some people act like you can't like both series at the same time, reminds me of the big three where you can only like one out of three. So childish. Smh

Just imagine if snks2 and this was airing at the same time? Thank god that didn't happen. It would be naruto vs hxh all over again. *shivers*

People need to stop using acronyms of shows that already have that, Kara no Kyoukai and Kyoukai no Kanata, it gets confusing, just Kabaneri, it's pretty short and nothing else is called that.

Same deal happened with Shingeki no Kyojin, SNK is already a game company and they could have used AoT but instead used the one with an already established acronym.

Except the fact that Ikoma at this point seems a hundred times better than Eren, who could only whine about killing Titans and basically being useless until he received a way to actually do something. Ikoma so far has a mindset like Eren's but is also smart and finding his own way to fight the threat. He's also kind of a nerdy dork and let's not forget the "I'm gonna save you and make you feel guilty about it!" tantrum in ep2. I'm so glad WIT Studio looked at what made Eren "work" as a character but also at what he lacked.

Ikoma has a similar vibe to Eren in some ways.
But its just as irritating seeing him all weepy and shit like Eren.

Ikoma had a good reason to cry. He thought he was going to become a Kabane after all and he had been abandoned by the others even though all he wanted and dreamed of was to help them have a fighting chance against the Kabane.

Eren is just a pussy princess peach who gets kidnapped every fucking time.

I think Ikoma breaking down was very well written, because he had only just succeeded in creating and showing of his weapon and despite knowing he wasn't a kabane (when he was still on the train at least) became a victim of that paranoia he hated so much. He ended up saving them but then the realisation hit him, everything was lost. I thought it was far more interesting to see him break down than him just standing there being a bad-ass. He was very HUMAN (which is important in this show)

Also I'm a bit confused as to where all these "overhyped" discussions are coming from. Not to mention the idea that when something is "over"hyped it means the show doesn't deserve it? Why would this show not deserve it? Yeah you can dislike the contents but I don't think anyone can deny the high production value so far

^ That is, always serving and volunteering for being the bait. Well, his position turned to be rather unique, even against other shifters, but Ikoma isn't on this scale, at least not yet.

I think I would hate Eren if he was after the small fries. But that's me.

To be honest, I came to this anime with little expectations.

Given the hype this anime received, it's basically impossible for it to not be overhyped as people are expecting best anime in the history of anime... which after two episodes so far is already impossible to achieve.


So far it was pretty damn good though and MC is a badass. Then again there is the music and the visuals that are top notch... well with exceptions that I sometimes feel the characters not fitting the backgrounds.

It actually is
-both mcs act the same about killing them
-there's a weapon that works exactly the same as the maneuver gear
-both mcs are

-they both have a female that's stronger than the mc
-they leave the city because of kabane/titans attacking
-both of them have

There's probably more but there's no way this series is nothing like it and I do think this show is overhyped

Oh boy a new contender to chew up and spit out.

I dunno, I think the mean score is currently way too high considering the fact that there's only been 2/3 episodes (don't know if the 3rd one is out yet lol) but I think it's ok so far. The story is pretty dumb but I like the 90's-inspired artstyle and action.

Personally I find SnK boring and bland. Hated most of the characters and the only good thing about it was the OST.

But this on the other hand, has the potential to be 100x better...if he get the MC stop whining about hating all the Kabane.

To all the people that think this is better than SnK (WITH 3 EPISODES OUT EVEN) - are we watching the same anime?
Most of the characters are morons, especially the human fodder. Mumei is literally the only character with a brain. The story will most likely be rushed with just these 13 episodes and I can easily see it becoming a trainwreck (no pun intended).
Sure, the visuals and OST are nice, but this show can't even step on SnK's little finger and by the time season 2 starts airing everyone will have forgotten about this show.

It's nowhere near as entertaining as SnK. At least in SnK the titans felt like a real threat to the main characters for most of the season, already these zombies seem like jokes that can be beaten down with ease.

Exactly. Its hard to get immersed in a story about humanity fighting against overwhelming opposition when the humans are retarded and the opposition isn't the slightest bit intimidating.
