Will AOT go down as a Classic?

If you take everything into consideration such as : story, character development, Animation, VA's. OST, quality of animation etc etc, even tho you might find animes who excel in on or in the other department, AOT is overall the best anime that has come from the industry until now

its the best mainstream show and I say that because its pretty hard to say its objectively the best I think aot blends seinen and shonen aspects really well comaprable to death note so I would agree with this at the same time its not a perfect adaptation nothing that goes from Manga to Anime ever is

Examples

Jojo Bizarre Adventure suffers from long winded battles full of commentary which is much longer compared to the manga. FMAB skips portions of the manga and has a much lighter tone compared to the manga and original adaptation same goes Hunter x Hunter


I will say that the biggest strength of aot is the hill like development which can suck you in and immerse you in although even though I say that you have to get past the first season which even though its gets better is painful with its characters every character is just....idk boring and emo it fits with the world but even fans agree and don't believe me the most popular character is a girl who gets unimaginably excited about eating food and is famous for eating a potato thats how boring I think the first season characters are

luckily the show goes rapid progression and moments which make you get attached to the characters even if they are literally cardboard the mere fact that established characters could die at any moment gets the attached to them although I would also say that Isayama goes overboard with killing off characters at the early moments such that I just expected the characters to die so in a way the reverse happened until an arc later

naaaaah....characters doesn't have to be funny to be funny to be interesting...and no characters are not bland they have there own personality and have deep character growth...and the world setting itself make the characters act like that... they're are just surviving....and this one of few few shows that doesn't have cliche anime character reaction nonsense...

I’m pretty sure I made exactly the point you made it’s not really the characters that have good depth it’s their progression through the narrative that makes them interesting as the story progresses seeing the wear and tear of the characters makes them more interesting from a narrative standpoint they are boring af in season 1 I can not say that about other shows that have a season of anime also interesting characters don’t just mean generic or cliche

Akane Tsunemori from Psycho-Pass She starts off as your stereotypical naive, rookie cop. Psycho-Pass, she quickly matures into one of the best characters I've seen.

She realizes the system is unfair and tries to change it from the inside. Psycho Pass She demonstrates incredible emotional resilience, able to recover quickly from stressful situations and make level-headed decisions. It's clear she still feels emotions as strong as anyone, but she is able to control them in order to get the job done.

Her relationship with Kougami is complex to say the least. There is certainly an element of her that is attracted to the sexy bad boy that Kougami is. At the same time, she is not so lovestruck as to lose focus on her own goals and ideals. She respects him, but this doesn't mean she agrees with his way of doing things. She is also quite wary of what Kougami could become in his lust for revenge.

Interesting doesn’t mean generic I expected more insight from the characters in season 1 it mostly focuses on eren and saves a lot of character moments for later seasons while adding subtle foreshadowing really a lot of the development is in the last half of the series

It will goes down to hall of shame, like School Live! and Another.
