Have any of you guys seen the anime? I heard that the story line is really good.

It's all over Tumblr. I'll probably check it out when it finishes airing.

I'm still waiting for it to stop being boring/hilariously overdramatic.

It's currently popular.

idk All the hype on Tumblr has really turned me off to the idea of watching it (people not tagging their stuff so I can block it doesn't help). I might when the fuss dies down, but it's not on my to-watch list at the moment.

This, only minus hilarious and replace with even more boring.

Goddammit I'm watching this for Mikasa and titan fight scenes, not this shit.

I love how the series is a trope checklist, but it's still played well enough. Also, the animation is delicious.

Also it spawned this: https://twitter.com/actual_armin

This. Though I don't like Mikasa as much as I thought I would. She doesn't have much to her character, just an obsession with Eren. It's cool when she gets all badass though.

I don't like the characters at all, really. But the horror/action scenes with the Titans are grand.

I tried reading the manga and the art is just so bad I couldn't. Got all the spoilers for the series though. =P

Agreed on the obsession thing. Literally every sentence she's said thus far has had Eren's name in it. Sometimes it's just Eren!. Like damn girl don't you have any hobbies?

The good animation, when it happens, is beautiful. I actually suspect that the incredibly slow pacing of the show is so they don't blow through an entire season's budget just getting one episode done. The characters aren't given enough room to breathe and grow.

If the series becomes a story about a boy/man and his obsession consuming and ultimately destroying him, then I will consider this a good, or at least, somewhat unique series. I feel it'll go down that path just because of how Eren's [radio edit]ing crazyeyes are only growing in intensity as the series progresses.

The series, somehow, reminds me a bit of Fullmetal Alchemist. I think it's the somewhat simple introductory concept (alchemy vs homunculi/badass grappling hooks vs titans) which appears to be playing into a much larger picture. Without having read/watched any other material related to the show, I'm willing to bet that Titan is going to pull a FMA-esque "SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE" moment.

I just hope it gets as good at characterization as FMA was.

I just felt like it needed pointing out.

Also the animation doesn't seem especially good to me aside from a few parts, and that's really balanced out by there being a lot of... not animation.

okay I'll stop now

You're all missing/ignoring the most important part of this anime, and that part is Potatogirl.
