I've been hearing it's great ever since it began airing. I've never gotten around to watching it, though.
Should I watch it? Is it as good as people say? |

So the cast of characters are mostly badass.
And the huge naked people are scary.
That's it? |

Ahh why can't I get a reasonable opinion around here?
"why should I watch this?"
"BECUS ITS g00d"
"Why do you think it's good?"
"BECZU ITS GOODDD" |

okay you really want me to go on a tirade here
things aot did well:
-art style is unique and somewhat exaggerated, plays nicely into uncanny valley for titans and people's shock at seeing people eaten alive -everyone has a chance of dying or being a bad guy, tropes and cliches exist but to a lesser degree -it fools you into thinking that the main character is gonna change in ep 5-6-7 -music's awesome -plot's such mystery very wow -titans are scary -characters are badass but still pretty realistic, they break down often as you would expect from teenagers fighting massive death beasts -setting is rather unique -you can't tell me you don't wanna use that 3d maneuver gear -RBA plot twist -opening 1 and ending 1 are great -specifically ending 1 -no unnecessary romantic subplot -calculating erwin stare -rigged chess matches -birds that fly -flashbacks -ghosts -bird -no |

| @Sonic, as much as I like hearing your opinions, they seem kind of mute when it comes to Anime. |

@Nil
I'm usually too lazy to type out reasons to watch an anime like that. I kinda like you even more now. |

I thought it was awesome. Not, perhaps, as awesome as everyone makes it out to be, but still pretty awesome.
And, like a lot of people here will tell you, it starts to feel like the author of the manga writes the script as he goes along, catering to the moods of the fans right after each chapter is printed. |

| I'd say give it a shot! Hey, if you don't mind gore, you haven't got much to lose. Personally, I loved the show. The story line keeps you on your toes, and the animation is pretty awesome. |

I'm more interested in finding out how you can hear text than retorting that this could only be said because I dislike a certain popular series. |

| Yes. The art is perfect for the series' setting. Also one of the few anime titles where the friends of the protagonist actually dies, and the protagonist gets hurt. Unlike the other anime titles where the protagonists are untouchable. |

i'd say sonic is one of the few people on here that have respectable opinions in the anime department
it's an alright series but it is by no means as good as people claim. the characters aren't particularly likeable, it doesn't have much continuous shock value for a "dark and edgy" series, it doesn't have a very intricate, deep, or gripping plot, after the first arc and maybe second it struggles to bring anything new or interesting and ends up forcing "twists", etc...
only thing it has going for it is the action scenes
maybe if you can maintain your interest with "omg titans!!!!!!" for however many episodes it is then i guess you'd like it |

@XxBlackSnow16xX
oh god please tell me you are joking
this is one of the few series like this that i can think of where hardly any characters die at all
the only people that die are unnamed characters or newly introduced characters that are quite obviously only there to die for the "shock value" |

I'm not new to watching Anime, I watched the first episode and thought it was kind of cool, I don't see why everyone hates on it. I like it now because of the:
-sense of impending dread -hella cool art style -character development (whaaat, in an anime?) -nice setting -great music -nice characters
There will be more, but I've only seen the first episode so yeah. |

| oh and sonic I only said that because it seems you hate anime as a whole. Maybe you don't, but whenever someone posts something to do with anime you hammer down on them. |
