What's up with Eren? Will he be brought to the titan-king? Maybe there is another faction where Reinard, Berthold and Annie originate from. Man, I'm so superstoked. I guess its also safe to say Armin and Mikasa won't die. Not so sure about Hannes tho,

Well, at the moment it is overrated, imo. The Problem i have with this series(Anime) is the long build up which implied trashtalk, an even more annoying protagonist(Eren) as luffy and loud annoying music. On the other hand, the Action looks amazing and the tragic scenes are good. I watched till episode 6 and i would rate it currently with 3,5/5. I know the twist in the next episodes and it could get better. But at the moment i can only do a facepalm when i read "SnK is fucking amazing and best Anime ever". But it's ok if some people feel this way, but for me it is overrated right now.
"loud annoying music"… "annoying protagonist"... I'm afraid I disagree.
Also, trashtalk? What do you mean by that? and how the hell is it "implied" through a long buildup (btw, which buildup???)Well, your free to your opinion, maybe SnK is getting a little more attention than it deserves, but the flaws you pointed out are just... ummm, I disagree with them.

What's a guy who thinks Luffy is a shitty annoying protagonist doing in a One Piece forum?

he's waiting for sabo to take over the plotline :ninja:

I've seen some people call this series overdone and unintentionally funny because the titan designs and the voice acting for the characters. "Lots of yelling with no subtlety or substance." Interestingly, I've seen the same criticism for One Piece actually. Something like the crying faces make it hard to take it seriously. Some of the titan designs do annoy me, but I personally can look past them, but I can see why some people couldn't. I can see why Eren would be disliked, too. The music is gorgeous, though and it never overpowered the character's voices or anything either, just the dramatic nature of the soundtrack? Cause that just is like that because that's how the story itself is.

@NER:
Naruto and Bleach fans… but we shouldn't insult these shits here, theres a whole thread for that. :I

Sorry, i kept my previous post very short and it is lacking details, so i see why you ask^^.
"loud and annoying music"
Should be clear that i meant the Background music, is it? Well, what should i say about that. I was sometimes annoyed by the choice of the said music. Maybe because the music itself wasn't to my liking or it was inappropriate like when Eren passed the "ballance"…exam(or whatever you call it^^). It was exaggorated, imo. But overall, that's a minor "flaw"."annoying protagonist"
Yup, that he is. Everytime he was screaming, i got pissed. I can't stand it, especially when he screams for no reason(there are reasons of course, but no reason for me to sream like that). Not to mention the Eren and Armin duo...OH MY GOSH!Did i got "implied" wrong? Or why do you ask? I thought it also meant that the build up is FILLED with trashtalk, annoying dialogues and boring parts.
By "build up" i meant the way up to the action parts.What's a guy who thinks Luffy is a shitty annoying protagonist doing in a One Piece forum?
I didn't meant it that way^^. I was only talking about the screaming part, which, i just notice, fits Usopp more. So Eren is even more annnoying than Usopp…yup, that does cut it better.
I do like luffy and usopp very much, btw. -
Mind telling us examples of said 'screaming'? This is not meant sarcastically since I really want to know what instances in particular you're talking about. Your view on the music, on the other hand, I can't share at all. The OST and the opening+ending sequences are top-notch and spot-on every single time.
-

I didn't watched FMA:B either :O. But it is on my List since years^^, atleast FMA the Manga…if i remember correctly i already read about 20 Chapters. But i watched many, ok it's relative, Animes. So i guess i can say that SnK is NOT the best, maybe it could get near the top tiers later. Who knows.
-

By "build up" i meant the way up to the action parts..now that's just ignorant. and I still respect your opinion. Everyone might have different opinions about pacing, sound and dialogues. But unfortunately I can't agree with the annoying dialogues and boring parts. Do you skip OP to the boss fights as well?

Seriously? You don't know scenes where he is screaming? He is screaming all the time, pretty much. Did i watched something else?

Of course i don't skip to the Boss fights in OP. The different is, that OPs build up is very interesting and funny. But i don't want to talk about OP in this thread.
Like you said, there are different opinions and tastes. -
In other words you can't provide me any examples to back your arguments and instead resort to generalizing it shamelessly?

Uhm, no! If you watched the Anime, you would know in which scenes he screams, because they aren't rare.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Just to clear it up, i didn't meant a short scream because of pain or something like that, i meant where he is talking loud...very loud and annoying with lines without impact. Sorry if that wasn't clear^^
-
Just when I was about to post a rather different kind of answer, I saw your edit. Your problem isn't Eren's character but his seiyuu's, Kaji Yuuki's, voice which comes down to personal taste (I for one like him). In the future complain about him rather than spouting nonsense about Eren; let's let you off the hook this time blaming the language barrier.

Not exactly. Sure, his seiyuu is kinda annoying for my ears, but i also meant the reasons why he feels to talk that loud. The reasons doesn't justify such annoying speeches, imo. And the speeches doesn't have impacts either.
It is even more annoying if you watch it twice. I watched it alone the first time and the second time with my brother, the 6 Episodes, and i couldn't stand it. And i can't consider a series good if it drops it's quality or lost it's impact after the first time. But it's also relative. -
Actually my impression of Eren shot up significantly with the "trial" chapter, in which he was able to identify his situation, able to go with Levi's stage act, and held no grudge afterwards and showed understanding of situation objectively. And also later when he showed constraints to trust his superiors during the Female Titan chase.
I have a feeling anime-only viewers will learn to respect him more once these episodes air. Eren is a lot more mature than what the initial impression may indicate.
-
^I don't even get how Eren comes off as immature. So far- in the anime, that is- he's been acting like a role model for the other students, encouraging them to keep fighting and to stay calm when the situation demands it. Annoying? In what way I wonder… but there are always haters who hate just for the sake of it and once you point out their mistakes, they shut up or keep acting like nothing happened.

Then your taste must differ fundamentally from the majority's. No idea what your problem is with his 'annoying speeches'. Eren gave like 2 speeches in total and all of them were justified and did their job. But whatever, feel free to think whatever you want.
-
Yeah, the trial chapter was great for world-building, too. Can't wait to see that in the anime.
-
But whatever, feel free to think whatever you want.
That's what we do^^. It wasn't my intention to bitch about SnK in the first place. I just read something here that some people think that this series is overrated and then the SnK fans of this Forum replied to it. You guys were on the "they must be Narutards" train and i was one of the guys who thinks that this show is indeed overrated.

Well, the problem is, his inability to control temper as a young kid leaves a strong impression early on, especially with the anime since well… that's most of what people have seen so far. Since you know, he "died" in episode 5, and not as much of his post-training teenage self was shown.
-
Because everyone knows that kids aren't whiny and temperamental. Complaints like these are the reason I stopped paying attention to anime-only viewers' comments pretty much from day one…
-
Oh my god
Anime Hanji is cute!!
-
That's not at all how I imagined she'd look, hopefully her voice is good for her numerous glorious scenes
-
:O She looks… pretty. I remember in the manga some panels of her made her look kinda masculine with a really strong jawline.
-
Oh, btw… apparently Weekly Friday magazine accidentally spoilered a page from the next chapter of Shingeki no Kyojin while interviewing the author. AHAHAHA.
Should I post it here?

So…
! he's eating a squash/pumpkin and partially transforms into a titan? Oh man, the distortion in the bottom image makes Eren look like some big mouthed brat.

! That face he does is so retarded lol.
It looks like his mouth is bleeding in the mid panel, which caused the transformation.
! Thanks dude. -

Kind of a minor question but Is there something important about the Titans not chewing people? We know that they don't eat humans for any nutritional value, and since they don't chew it seems that they don't actaully enjoy eating humans. Am I thinking to much about this and it was just plot convienience so that Eren could survive?
Guess this is where I start reading the Manga, because Goddamn that cliff hanger was awesome.

as expected from ninja fans that recently watch this anime,
said "lololololol eren has susano'o"

Like everyone said, ep 9 follows the manga closely. Which I like.
HANJI! I love you Hanji! I love all ladies of Shingekyo. I don't think there's a single female character who's fallen into fanservice category… yet. I hope not.
As a girl, I like this approach Isayama's taking for his female characters. It's refreshing.
BTW i really want to read the parody manga of Shingekyo that someone posted way back. For something so serious, Isayama likes to make fun of his characters a lot. -

By "damn that was fast" I'm talking about drawing this specific scene based on a frame of today's episode, which only aired in Osaka, and not even in Tokyo yet.
Not about emergence of the shippers, which is what you're blabbering about.:wassat:Sheesh.
