Review of Attack on Titan

Attack on titan is an anime about large genderless naked men running around cities eating people, breaking shit and being general dicks. The story follows Eren yeager; He lost someone he loved and now he's filled with more edge than a swimming pool filled with razor blades. If you could imagine shadow the hedgehog with swords instead of guns that's basically Eren.... Mikasa is amy, she's obsessed with protagonist to an unhealthy level. Then you have Armin who's just tails. his personality trait is that he's smart and admires the protagonist. Sure there's other characters in the show but considering how attack on titan derives greatpleasure in introducing new characters and killing them off immediately after said characters are introduced means that there's not really a stable supporting cast. And though there are a few outstanding characters like Levi and and sadist doctor they hardly get any screen time.

The story of season one pretty much revolves around Armin, Mikasa, Earen and friends/cannon fodder trying to figure out who the female titan is despite the female titan's identity being painfully fucking obvious. Since the female titan resembles someone who the group has already meant....This "Conflict" is dragged out by several episodes.

Despite its short comings in story telling and character development attack on titan is a truly phenomenal work of art with crispy animation, brilliantly choreographed fights, and a depressive atmosphere filled with tension and danger. Because of this I'm giving it a 7.
