Attack on Titan - My Thoughts Plus some Manga Smut

[lynx212]

Okay so I was sucked into yet ANOTHER fandom (blaming pastry_wench for this one)

This show is awesome beyond words kind of awesome.
Watched all 25 episodes and I'm seriously considering buying the manga to get my fix!
I would tell you more about this bit of animated greatness but it's almost impossible to do so without giving key shit away.
But let me just say this series hits the ground running and doesn't quit!

Now with all that said I must add these two.



Levi  and Eren

OH THE FAN GIRL IN ME SAID PAY DIRT!!

So in very very short order those two turned into this...


...in my twisted little mind. But oh boy was it fun!


So now your very lovely Lynx has moved onto...

This series does lack for... any relief at all. It's relentless. Depressing, deep, vicious, grief. I don't know how much of it I can stand. But the kids love it.

I must agree on that dear Elfs. It does lack relief and things do look ominous for humankind but I like my anime dramas like that...

Tough and gritty.

ETA: So nice to hear from you btw *hugs*

Oh, you're welcome! I read your articles as they go by, but rarely feel like I have anything worthwhile to add.

Yeah, it's pretty non-stop, all 25 episodes of it. :/ Attack on Titan (or Shingeki no Kyojin if you prefer) comes out of the box swinging taking no prisoners. It's unlike anything I've seen in a long time. AoT is as different from the current lineup of cookie cutter fluff anime as Star Blazers (aka Uchuu Senkan Yamato), the anime that introduced me to anime btw, was back in its day. Star Blazers showed me that people could actually die in an animated series. I'd never seen anything even close to that before and it was a bit of a shock to my young eyes. I'd seen Wile E. Coyote get blown up many times but he never died. SB comes along and turns my world upside down. Now, many years later, AoT comes along and turns my whole perspective on anime on its ear. That's a pretty impressive feat for this old fangirl! :)

I don't know how far you are in the series but if you're struggling with AoT now, you may wanna cut and run. :/ Like I said, all 25 episodes are pretty much non-stop. I admit I was tempted to do just that myself a time or two but I held on till the end. It's hard to see it sometimes but underneath all the depressing grief and gore is a really good storyline.

Well, we watched the whole thing. I'm not getting into the manga, but the kids have.
