The story is basically about a boy eren who had witnessed the dead of his mother (that was killed by a titan) and after that devoted his life to take revenge on every titan alive. What isn’t that easy since they haven’t won any battle yet. I don’t think that you need to know more than this.
So what did I like of the anime? Well without doubt the originality of the story. The way titans are brought was (at least for as far as I know) never done that way. They are dumb creatures sorted in much different sorts based on the difference in heights with only one weak spot their neck. The way they fight with their 3D-gears to reach that spot and those 3D-gear fights itself where just magnificent. The way they fly smoothly through the air. How a certain field can give so much advantage/disadvantage. Those concepts are just completly new to me. Just as I said before: the fights are just that great. Everything is like it would’ve been like 2000 years ago just with some sci-fi objects as the 3D-gear. Those walls and everything in the city is so well drawn that it suits perfect for background of the titans. It really gives you that feeling like you’re living to in that time. Some characters are magnificent and most of them are again very original. It is just because of that that it is a classic must watch anime for me. The main characters there voice acting is really well done. It just gives those emotions perfectly over. It just makes the characters who they are.
“But after all those compliments only a seven? why would that be?” is probably a question going through all your heads at the moment. Well the first thing you need to know it that seven means good and that is exactly the way how I feel about this anime. However it had plenty of original stuff there was only one moment that gave me goosebumps. It wasn’t full of fillers or boring stuff. It just wasn’t good enough to surpass many other animes. It probably will at the end of the serie when there comes hopefully an epic end. But as the end is now, such open and nothing special. It just feels like there is missing something big in this anime. Thats why it “only” gots a seven.
