Lets say that the pace is bad,you DO understand that they have to make it like this because the manga isnt done right?

Just look at your post I quoted.

BTW I like how it is done.We get more emotions from the chars and the transition from scene to scene isnt very fast.


Which post are you referring to, the one in this quote chain? Secondly I don't see why it would matter if the manga wasn't done or not, I highly doubt they are going beyond the you know what arc, especially since the show drags so much.
This one:"What? After all those flash backs and drawn out scenes they are doing a recap episode? Not sure if serious."

It matters.If they dont catch up to the manga they wont have to make an original ending and just end at a cliffhanger, ideal one being

I will drop it after current arc is finished. And then I'll wait until airing is finished and watch it once again from the start to the very end of it. It's not SnK's fault, its just me who can't watch ongoings properly.

OP sounds like a bitch. He knows he'll keep watching and reading until the end, jizzing every episode. Acting like you're a world class anime critic doesn't make you cool, just makes you look like a fag.

You should be the one who needs to learn to read. No the pacing is not off and I have read a few pages already. You keep talking bullsh*t and about how a chapter which takes 10 minutes to read is stretched out into 20 minutes. You obviously do not understand what the hell is animation. We're watching a damn animation, not just pages of manga goddamn it. There is speaking and music. Of course anyone can goddamn read a damn in 10 minutes. Heck I can read it in 5 minutes, but that doesn't prove a damn thing about the pacing of the anime.

I have to agree with you actually. Manga always takes less time to read for me. It's literally just words and pictures. Animation uses things like music and talking which obviously takes more time so it is supposed to be longer. Shingeki feels a bit slow at times but the pacing is not bad indeed for a manga to anime adaption.

People should learn to appreciate things instead of crying over stupid things like the pacing of a show when you compare it to a manga. Animes that comes from mangas are adaptation, not a video of the actual pages of the manga. It's impossible to make a perfect show that everyone will like, there are too much factors to take into account like personnal view of what is good and what isn't.

Attack on Titan is an amazing show, a must see for animes fans. Doesn't mean it's perfect. So if you drop a show just because you don't like one thing about it, than I wonder why you are watching Animes/Movies/TV Shows etc...

Take Death Note for exemple, I loved the show, but the soundtrack was shitty in my opinion. Did I drop it? No. I'm even rewatching right now.

To be honest, you should ask youself if you enjoy the show. And if you do, than why drop? If you don't enjoy it, than why are you watching it?

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not....
and once again another hater speaks up.. cool that you hate it, now go away.


You misconstrue my criticisms as "hatred." If I "hate" this show I would have dropped it like I do everything else. I am not doing this to be a contrarian or a hipster or whatever BS you believe. I do it because I have a right to express my opinion as a member of this website, just as you are entitled to praise every episode to the Heavens as I assume you do.


There's a reason why people don't watch anime, and the inflation of this just goes to show how many fake fans of anime such as this are.

I don't plan on watching this, but understand it's the "premier shounen that surpasses SAO in all regards" based on what I've been hearing.

SnK was never a 100% action packed series, and if you can't stand the pace and are expecting it to be faster it's better drop it because the pace isn't going to change in the next arc.

Anime, Manga, Light Novel, Visual Novel, or whatever. I have not seen an adaptation that was actually better or as good as the original. However, adaptations have their own merits (eg. there's no music in manga and light novels, etc) that there are many times that the adaptation can be more enjoyable than the original. Still in my opinion, the original will always portray the story best. Expecting the adaptation to have the exact same pacing as the original or expecting even more than that are actually quite naive.

In my opinion, this adaption is actually good especially if you compare it to other adaptations. And honestly, I won't complain as long as non-manga readers do not get a bad impression of the series just because of the adaptation without seeing the original. And I don't think that's the case here at all.

Drop this series if you want. But I know you have two options when you said you dropped it (1. Get back what you said and watch next week again, 2. Watch it when the whole series is finished). Either way, you'll come back to watch it.

I haven't read the manga before, but the slow pacing could be for the perfect cliff hangers at the end of each episode. Because if they go at an audience enjoyable pace, the end of the episodes may not be much of an ending (because there's also the duration of the episode to worry about).

Just wait till the anime finishes and then marathon it in one go if you think the pacing is slow, geez! Personally as a non-manga reader, I'm reallying enjoying SnK. Past 2 episodes have been pretty slow but I'm okay with it since it's build-up episodes. If you prefer the manga than just stick with the manga. >.>

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

lol@ Everyone in this thread. "I dropped it but I'm still hanging out in the series' forum". That makes too much sense.

I think the pacing is a tad slow but I'm okay with that, it makes me want more. Considering how the manga is even a bit slow paced yes, the series is going to take awhile to ramp up. 25 episodes seems awful short. Hopefully they don't decide to make an ending just for the series and go on with a season two.

There's a difference between a show being slow and one being overly slow. There's way too much recapping, flash backs and drawn out scenes happening here.

Probably catch up on older shows. Everything that I haven't dropped is ending within the next two weeks. Might finish Eureka Seven AO, I just couldn't stand it anymore and dropped it with about 6 eps to go or something like that.
