It's about a kid who developed a hatred of titans.
Then he [i]became[/i] a titan.
Then the story becomes what you'd expect from a coke-fueled hallucination.

Its about cities within walls surviving against large creatures known as Titans.
To be honest i never really thought id get into it. But after the first episode i just had to continue.
I watch it on animecenter.tv
Also dont listen to anybody who says each episode is full of fillers because it really isnt. So far the anime is on-time and accurate compared to the manga.
As a side note the manga doesnt look that appealing so i wouldnt suggest to read it but eh everyone has different opinions.

[quote=AveryMB]I watched 5 min. of it when it first came out and I put it down because I was not very interested. I never thought it would get so much hype so at this point I'm just gonna wait until it's finished to try it again.[/quote]

Just a bit off-topic, but in general why would you give a show such a minuscule amount of time before deciding that you weren't interested?
I always give new shows I watch at least 3 episodes or so before deciding if its worth my time to continue. 3 episodes actually allows time for a show to get things started.

@Kahpow: yea i dont get how people even liked it. It would have been better if the actual game part was longer.

[quote=cool123ter]from someone that didnt finish sao i would say AOT is 10x better it has MUCH MUCH smoother transitions and the actions is 100000x better and so are the characters.[/quote]

[quote=DragonBandit]@runningninja because the show is about humans attacking titans, fighting for survival and trying to make a come back. Just because the titans obliterate the humans does not mean they are not attacking.[/quote]

Then what are they doing if it's not considered killing one another?

it's a story of 3 chinese men who take on the daily challenges and responsibilities that come with owning an american dry cleaner. Join the three main characters Jo, Hun, and Martin in their amazing character building journey.

I second this. I've been extremely cautious but a couple of times I've slipped and gotten huge twists spoiled for me.

Taken from crunchyroll description
"Many years ago, the last remnants of humanity were forced to retreat behind the towering walls of a fortified city to escape the massive, man-eating Titans that roamed the land outside their fortress. Only the heroic members of the Scouting Legion dared to stray beyond the safety of the walls - but even those brave warriors seldom returned alive. Those within the city clung to the illusion of a peaceful existence until the day that dream was shattered, and their slim chance at survival was reduced to one horrifying choice: kill - or be devoured! "

I highly recommend checking it out.

Crunchyroll, legal streaming if you REALLY want to stream. Downloading is recommended.
Big guys eat little guys. Is actually a mecha anime in disguise. Probably one of the biggest shows this season.
