Preliminary (11/12 eps)
I'll apologize in advance for any possible grammar, punctuation or wording mistakes, English is my third language and on top of that, this is my first review.

Probably not going to involve myself much in reviews but SnK is an exception (there are some other titles that I might have "reviewed" as well but I only started using MAL recently despite my account being almost 3 years old, so there is that as well)

Disclaimer: I ll be assuming that you know more or less what the story is about (reading the synopsis should be enough) and that you have watched S1 so there might be some minor season 1 spoilers ahead.


**Story 10/10**


You can't talk about a second season without bringing the first one so beware, some minor season 1 (or maybe major) spoilers ahead but rest assured no spoilers on the second season here.

To be honest, when I first started SnK (season 1) I was skeptical, it was just another over-hyped shonen with giant naked human-eating beasts A.K.A. Titans as the antagonists and 3 generic main protagonists all together in a generic survival plot.
Nothing special, nothing unique, nothing original.

But the show proved me wrong soon enough, the story was much more complex than i thought it would be, it was deeper, darker, more interesting. Every time they answer a question, they raise 10 more unanswered questions. Every time you think you understood something, they prove you wrong with an unexpected twist. And thus the cycle remains each and every time, which is a good thing in SnK.


**Art 9/10**

I ll skip this part since I am not fit to talk about 'art'.
Nothing to complain about here, while not at the level of.... let's say Fate stay night:UBW or Shingeki no Bahamut, it is still a solid 9.


**Sound 10/10**

The composer is Sawano Hiroyuki, should suffice as an explanation


**character 9/10**

All the characters (most of them at least) have their own unique backstory, personality and such, and even if they don't reveal their story you will somehow get attached to them through their interactions with other characters and love them (Levi squad, I am looking at you, Petra particularly rest in peace).
The minus 1 though is because of Eren in almost 2 seasons he didn't mature at all, still the same guy we got introduced to in episode 1 of season 1 after his mother got eaten.


**overall enjoyment 10/10**


Outstanding story with an outstanding OST (op and ed are great as well, never skipped them) with great characters delivered through great animation.

10/10 would watch again
