I think this show was really good, with cliff-hangers at the end of each episode and each episode filled with amazing action and art. The one complaint I have of this show is the character development. They don't give time to get to know the characters, get a feel for them. I found that 80% of the time it was just action and blood and titans and killing. Don't get me wrong, it was really good. It's just that, if it gave more time to know the characters, maybe give a little background history for some of them, and a bit of plot centering around some of the main and main supporting characters, when they died there would be more feels and emotions rather than just, "oh, another one died." It gives more character depth and a feel for the show, more than just brutal killing. I have to admit, the plot was good and it went at a quite fast pace, but in between all that there should be time to pause and look around. We don't know much about the history of humans with titans, and a time before that (well, as far as i can tell since i didn't read the manga). And can i admit? I don't know 3/4 of the character's names in the anime, and believe me, i can remember a character's name quite well. The ones in Shingeki no Kyojin don't seem to stick however, because the way i remember a character and how i like a character is through their personality, their past..etc. and not just their looks. I don't remember the names of characters in this anime because i dont see much character development or anything, and the supporting characters are barely supportive. they just die, in my opinion, without ever getting to know them. I can understand why people like it, and maybe it's just me, but i like more depth into an anime rather than action action action. other than that, the anime is quite good. the music and art is unique and its storyline is eyecatching and addictive :)
