Review of Attack on Titan
Shingeki no Kyojin Director: Tetsurou Araki Written by: Yasuko Kobayashi Music by: Hiroyuki Sawano Based on: Manga (Volumes 1-8) Creator: Hajime Isayama Story (8/10): From the very beginning, Attack on Titan has a very cliche and overused plot of "something and/or somewhat is invading humanity and we must defend the Earth at all costs"type of thing. The difference between Attack on Titan and all othe other shows that use this is that Attack on Titan uses unique plot points and gut wrenching pot twists that you would have never expected in a million years making Attack on Titan anything but cliche or unoriginal. Art (9/10): Theart is absolutely amazing and this for me is what makes this anime better than its original manga counterpart. WIT Studio definitely went all out on this.
Sound (9/10): The music by Hiroyuki Sawano is breathtaking and makes you truly feel like you are witnessing the horrible things that happen to Eren and others alongside them, as if you are truly in their world. It is eery and dark, making it the perfect OST for Attack on Titan.
Character (9/10): The characters are fantastic, from Eren Yeager's determination, Mikasa's loyalty, Armin's intelligence, Jean's stubbornness, and Levi's sarcasm.
Enjoyment (9/10): I enjoyed Attack on Titan a lot, one of the best anime that I have watched this year.
Overall (9/10): While not being perfect, Attack on Titan truly is one of the best anime of this decade and is a true classic for sure. Tetsurou Araki, the man who directed Death Note, comes to direct this one heck of an amazing anime.
9/10.
