The story is very unique I have to say. It seems to be one of the most popular anime out there, even people who didn't watch anime started watching because of this. It contains action, humor, mystery...a lot of good stuff although it did seem to be like others when you think of shounen anime. They fight out monsters just like a bunch of other anime but good thing they did make the story in their own way with the characters, setting, and plot twists a long the way.
The art is a lot different than some anime art but just in my personal opinion, I didn't really like how it seemed a lot more like a drawing than other anime designs. I know that anime is based from drawings but this particular one was just not much to my liking. Other than that, the characters all look different(the main ones at least) and the scenery is beautiful.
The sound is really intense because this anime is obviously intense and it consists of a lot of yelling. The openings are really catchy and they don't exaggerate when they're fighting the titans. The sound has good emphasis drama when needed and I guess that's really all that matters.
The characters were very unique although Eren was a little generic like the typical shounen boy protagonist and Mikasa as the typical skilled girl protagonist who is attached to the main boy protagonist. As I said, these cliches were cancelled out by their unique back stories which changed their characters to make them seem cooler I guess and liked by the audience even if it was a little overdramatic.
I thought I'd enjoy this more but I give it a six because although it is interesting, I didn't want to watch the next episode sometimes which caused me to take breaks between episodes. The fights were interesting but it got old pretty fast. I wasn't really sure what to enjoy besides the fights.
Overall the anime is good if you like action and mystery but it is a bit over hyped.
