Review of Attack on Titan

My first reaction to hearing about Attack on Titan was "A show about giants attacking people behind walls, ill probably get bored what can giants do." Now im screaming at people "WATCH ATTACK ON TITAN" This is not the first show i have watched episodically but never have a been so eager for the next episode to come around. AOT delivered a thrilling, somewhat excruciating experience as most episodes end in a major cliffhanger. While this is not a flaw, at times it did seem to disturb the progression of the plot. The plot of AOT is great, and although the pace is at times ruinedby the constant cliffhangers it really does come together well and will leave you longing to know more.

The real gem of this show are its designs, music and characters, because together they work to create an Amazing experience. The action in this anime is smooth and well designed and to me was the highlight of this anime. It could be absolutely jaw droppingly brutal at times.

There are a multitude of characters which really help to drive the plot each serving their own purpose, even if that purpose was dying. there was always the presiding fear that characters i liked would die, to make it worse death was almost an arbitrary thing. The plot would refused to slow down because people were dying.

The opening songs were a surprising stand out, really helping to influence the high energy the show has. This is an anime defineantly worth watching as the one thing AOT does best is be incredibly engaging.
