The story is one of the most captivating stories I have ever seen. Hundred years prior to the start of the anime, humanity has been on the bridge of extinction due to the monstrous, humongous humanoid Titans that devour humans. Now, at present day in the anime, the remaining small inhabitants of mankind lives in a restricted area surround with 3 "heavenly" walls that are so strongly and solidly built that even the Titans can't break in. The most outermost wall was named, Wall Maria, which is approximately 50 meters in height, the middle wall was named Wall Rose, and the innermost wall named Wall Sina. Unfortunately for mankind, a colossal titan, one that is even bigger than the 50 meters "heavenly walls", breaks Wall Maria, allowing the other titans to rampage the city, thus leading to another massacre of mankind. During this massacre, our main characters, Eren Yeager and Mikasa Ackerman watched a horrifying titan rips their mother's head off, then gobbles her up the whole. Vowing that he'd one day avenge mankind and exterminate all the Titans, Eren Yeager trains to become a survey corp, brave heroic soldiers who go outside the walls, into the plains in order to fight the Titans. But we soon find out, that Eren is much more special than he seems, not only is he a brave warrior, but he's also something else that could be the key to humanity's survival, but could also be humanity's destruction.
The anime showed how the cycle of life works. Humans, we steal animals away from their families, we kill them, we eat them. What's so different from us, and the Titans? The feelings of not being at the top of the food chain. We fight for the existent of humanity.
The art and music can be described in one word: AMAZING! The art drawings were absolutely stunning! From the characters/titans to the setting of the story to all the equipment used in battle. The characters all had a unique aspect to them. The settings of the anime were beautiful. The cities and walls looked realistic, the plains that characters dreamed of seeing made me want to run outside to see for myself how beautiful nature really is, and how humans under appreciate the naturality of nature. The 3-D gear was something that really caught my eye, and will certainly catch other people's eyes as well. A new form of action that's never been seen before. The characters would literally fly from rooftop to rooftop slicing their swords at the Titans at high-speeds that keep the viewers' eyes locked onto the screen at all times. The soundtrack in the anime was epic. The openings speak for themselves, they do the anime justice. The openings were outstanding and certainly set the mood of what was to come from the anime. "They're the prey, and we are the hunters!" The rest of the soundtrack in the anime was AMAZING. How can one describe how amazing those German OSTs were. They fit in perfectly with the epicness of the anime and certainly added tons of suspense to the 3-D maneuver gear action.
It's a 10/10 for me.
Recommendation: Highly Recommended.
