That anime shingeki attack on titan really sucks

Episode 10 made me give up. It went nowhere. For the entire 24 minutes, they were talking to each other inside the rib cage.
Super long drawn out pauses, it feels like DBZ all over again except it has mastered the technique of going nowhere.

@milkocha Yea I'm still going to watch it, it just bums me out that the episodes are lacking. It's like I keep hoping they don't pull this filler crap every week <_<
@Omegathorion are you for cereal, i'll look into it

I felt like they were dragging everything in episode 10 but I'll still continue it because I love every single part of this anime <3

@Omegathorion: Aku no Hana has a sickening story line. I watched it because of the unique realistic art but after realizing that the fat girl was crazy, I had to drop this anime. I cringed so much through 5 episodes.

You should watch Aku no Hana.

7 minutes of Kasuga and Nakamura walking hand in hand, no conversation, no sound, nothing. Aired on TV.

This anime has the best animation, voice acting, character development, action, amazing soundtrack I've seen in awhile. When Eren was screaming his head off when that kyojin picked his mother up from the ground... o.o

Jaw dropping moment: When that Kyojin bit her the blood gushed out and spilling everywhere and the music facade into a beat and they ROLLED the credits... man that's probably the best pilot episode I've seen in a really long time.
Not every single episode can't be intense as the first one or else my heart will drop. </3

Armin's speech delivered period.

Girl, you Kray Kray

If the grotesque stuff in Shingeki no Kyojin doesn't intrigue you enough to sit through episodes like 9 and 10, just drop it. You're not going to find amazing, lovable, well-developed characters in this series.

@TheZigen I don't mind character development that's done well.

If you're into it just for the action, than the series is really meant to be watched in its entirety once it's over. That, or you can read the manga. But I think the balance between character development and action is just fine. The beginning/first few episodes is action-heavy and then you have a few episodes of backstory before going back into the action and now we have another few episode of down-time.

My most vivid memories are close ups of people crying "oh gad what do i do, eh?" *flashback* "oh gad it all makes sense now, ive been a coward my whole gosh darn life!" *flashback* *closeup* flashback close up flashclose upback closeflash fbalsla

@SirJayGatsby Armin is the reason why I started skimming through episodes, you're not alone there. He really killed it for me <_<

That's because you do not have the intention span to see through character development. Although Armin annoys the crap out of me, I was really taken back by how they developed him there and he no longer annoys me but I still make jokes about his name. For example:

You put your left Amin
You pull your left arm out

Kill me.
