Shingeki no Kyojin in my opinion is a breath of fresh air from all of the anime cliches, to begin with the main character doesn't quite fit into the general anime archetypes of anime male characters, he isn't useless, and he isn't a wimp. I do have some beef with its story in relation to the characters which is, its game of thrones style no character is safe. However, this shows the brutality of the situation at hand, so it doesn't make it unwatchable. Despite the brutality, characters have moments that are incredibly moving that still give me chills, where they show their inner strength. The story is incredible and well thought out, the fight scenes and the animation for the fight scenes is incredible and badass. And the sound is good.
Pros
+Not your average punk main character
+Brutal in a fitting way
+Breath of fresh air
+Moving Moments
Cons
-Brutal Game of Thrones no character is safe
-Not for faint of heart
Final Thoughts
It's a good anime and the cons don't stop it from being enjoyable, incredibly moving moments, definitely worth checking out. Can't wait for season 2!!
