The bad. Where as there isn't much bad about this series it does have it's flaws, unlike the last time I am not blinded by the amazing animation and I have really thought about the series as a whole. Attack on Titan does have a strange pacing to it, at one point it is going extremely slowly, and at the next they get a whole arc done in a single episode. Another thing about it is the recap episode, I do not like recap episodes unless they ad something to the franchise, this is where Neon Genesis Evangelion succeeded, that series had so much happening in one episode that you would need a recap half way through series. But in Attack on Titan, unless you count every insignificant thing, not a lot happens at the halfway point, just to pick up during the second half.
The good. Attack on Titan is a good series, like I said before. It has a really good and original story, but it really shines in the second half, where the pacing isn't as inconsistent and we actually get some character development for the only character in anime who actually has a realistically sized nose. The animation is up there, it's both original and looks like they spent a lot of time and effort on this project instead of just making another generic action anime. We have characters that didn't become the original cookie of the cookie cutter for so many people to follow. This series can have dark comedy while still keeping a serious tone and having characters that you can actually sort of relate to. This anime also had an amazing soundtrack that has music that shares the scene with the action instead of taking the back seat.
Final Verdict:
This series is quickly become the new Dragon Ball. People from many different fandoms, even outside of anime fandoms, tend to like this anime. so would definitely suggest it.
8/10
