Review of Attack on Titan Season 3

AOT Seasons 3 is after the defeat of Reiner and Bertholdt and the Survey Corps very costly recapture of Eren Jaegar. This season is my least favorite season, even though my enjoyment is an 8. From the start you could say it has a different mood/vibe compared to the last two seasons. It was much more lighthearted and less gruesome and some moments and scenes were out of place in a world like AOT . It was unbalanced in all honesty. What made the last two seasons specials was the titan action and the human conflicts both very balanced. But season 3 focuses completlely onthe human part of the story such as politics. Even though it was short and definitely felt rushed it makes up for it with further detailed worldbuilding and gives us alot of answers to the questions we have been dreading since last season. But one question remains, "Who is the enemy?". This season certainly had more issues and flaws than compared to the last two seasons.

They did a pretty goob job on the characters in this seasons but tbh there wasn't much development for most of the characters except maybe Levi and Historia. We get alot of details on families of Levi, Mikasa, and Historia and the mysteries and the truths that they left behind. Such as who Levi's mom was or how Eren's parents met. We get a couple of new character introductions most being minor except for Kenny and Rod Reiss. Kenny, a egotistical maniac that only craves for power and is much more important than expected as we go on in the series. And Rod Reiss, an important figure to Historia and his own "creation" leading to his own failure. The screentime for the characters were well done for the most part though I expected some exposition from Mikasa and Armin.

The visuals are comparable to last season. But takes a dip once such as when Trost felt like an empty city. And with the animation and art feeling a bit more white/lighter, it doesn't still well with the atmosphere and tone of AOT. The opening was not as good compared season 1 or 2 but was still pretty good alone. The violin was actually used quiet alot in this season especially during the action scenes, it gave us a more subtle and calm feeling and I liked it. But with the minimum use of the choir and vocals that gave alot of energy I can't give the sound a 10

Overall a pretty enjoyable season. And has the elements and plot devices for a respectable sequel of season 2.
