The review as a whole will contain spoilers for the previous seasons. I usually try to avoid spoilers, but this time, the problems are so directly related to the story that I have to address some of the plot elements. Those that have seen the previous parts of the show are safe for now. I will give a warning until I get to the spoilers for Season 3 Part 2.
I actually loved the beginning of S3P2. The first six episodes, for me, were as good as the show has gotten since season 1. We are finally taking back Wall Maria. We will finally get to know the mystery of the cellar. We get the hyped up confrontation with the Armored and Colossal Titans - the one's that started it all. And the ruined district of Shiganshina is the perfect venue for this climactic confrontation. Seeing it again felt rea…

They say that this arc is a masterpiece, the best of simps no kyojin, at least I, I don't know in which head that can be said, it is a terrible arc like the whole work and now I will explain why:
Superficial sections such as art or sound are fine, although I managed to notice one or another frame that would serve for a meme, and being superficial details I would not add many points for that.
The only reasons why I see that they praise this arc is for Failed Zzzmith and Inutil Arlert, and at least for me two good characters do not save an entire work, in the other sections they fail, everything is so convenient, predictable and stupid, many Sometimes they repeat things that are already obvious, or that at the time of the syringe, those two are dying Zzzmith and Arlert but obviously as one…

I want to first note that I did enjoy season 3 part 2. I'm a big fan of the show. If you turn off your brain, ignore the pacing issues, and writing, you will find a lot of enjoyment in the show. That is the case for me.
However, I think that for the most part, making me feel suspense and a rush of emotions at every single moment, isn't a sound approach necessarily.
If there is anything that irks me most, it is the conclusion to part 2. The veil of mystery over the entire world suddenly dissipated. That is an appeal in the show, the fact that we are in this isolated world with so much mystery and uncertainty. It seems that everything around you is shedding slowly, but only ever so slowly. The fact that this entire shroud of mystery that is built up since the very beginning is dissipated s…

Nowadays I see a lot of people writing off AOT, and I think it's a real shame. AOT has come an incredibly long way, and the way I see it, the next season will be even better.
The first season was all about shock value, gore, and the paaaaaaACING was not consistent. It was still enjoyable. Season 2 and Season 3 introduce many new and intriguing facets and really forces you to think about the brutal realities of war, death, duty, and perseverance.
There's no plot armor, but there is no mindless death. It all feels real. Every single situation is brutal and the choices each character must make is hard, but realistic. Throughout the show, I did not know what I would do should I be placed in those circumstances, and it made me feel for the characters all the more. I could not guess what was…

I don't like writing negative reviews, and before I start I have to say that I gave this a positive average score. However, not everybody think that Snk is the best thing out there, and I feel it's necessary to give voice to "other" opinions too. Mine, in this case.
The show is nice. The animation is good and it's very entertaining. I'll give it that. However it has a lot of flaws, and this season, while it's in some aspects more interesting than the previous ones, it's also lacking a bit.
My biggest probleme with this anime is more of an adaptation issue. I may criticise some aspects of the story itself, but what I find specially disappointing is the narrative structure of the animation.
The narration style tries to make the plot more mysterious by giving small fragments of informat…

A lot of bombs dropped this second half of the season. The story has finally kicked into high gear. Twists and turns and revelations seemingly dropped every episode. The plot moved beyond the threat of regular titans to the threat of the true enemy outside of the walls. We're finally starting to understand who Reiner, Bertholdt, Annie, and Zeke are. The society they belong to, where they are coming coming from, the reasons behind the attacks, and the titan origin story are some of the questions that answers were given to.
Animation, sound, etc was top notch like in the past seasons.

When last year Season 3 was declared to be split cour there was a considerable sadness among the fans because of the delay.But it actually came as a blessing in disguise.This season had probably the highest anticipation till now and it goes without saying there was lot of expectation and honestly WIT Studio was able to deliver it.Whether they will pick up SNK again or not is not clear at this point but this season will probably be their best work for a long time.

The story picks up from season 3 part 1 where the SC sets off to liberate Wall Maria and to know what is in the Basement,On the surface it may appear very simple but constant plot twists and thriller like environment completely blows away your mind.The story flowed in a smooth manner and never once…

This season's work has forced me to pen down my first review on MAL.
Also this review is from a point of view of a person who hasn't read the manga but only watched the anime.
The chronological buildup from season 1 to season 3 part 1 had hyped up the latter part of season 3. And I think it was a very wise decision from the studio to divide the season 3 into 2 parts. Just like major arcs of movies are divided into two parts to provide depth and emphasis of the things to come. The crux of 3rd season dealt with what I call is the Royal bloodline Arc(S03 Part 1) and the shiganshina arc
Story: 10/10
Well, the way the S03 partv1 went I had lowered my expectation for part 2 even though i felt hyped up. The slow paced arc concentrating more on the hum…

I feel like ever since the early 2000s I've been waiting for a true masterpiece to rival all the great anime like FMA: Brotherhood and Code Geass and I think I have finally found that show. There have been a lot of good shows since back then but Attack on Titan clearly 100% stands on top as the best! Anyone can tell the man that created this show is very intelligent this is the work of a creative genius.
I usually have trouble watching shows with a lot of dialogue because most of them don't have real substance like Attack on Titan. I think the most special aspect of this show is that every discussion has meaning, every scene has a purpose whether it's visually showing you something or what you're listening to, that is proof of a true work of art! I don't even know what to call this it fe…

Don’t be so surprised when you see a whole stream of 10/10s come gushing from the reviewers who have just finished this piece of work. SnK Season 3 Part 2 is really, nothing short of breathtaking. It’s that one anime that actually makes you crave the next episode after the next, as the madman himself, Hajime Isayama leaves you awestruck with his storytelling. Why has such a typical looking shounen series risen to the 2nd place, in all of MyAnimeList? If you have not watched such a rare gem of this caliber (that may never appear in the next 5 years) yet, I suppose I should explain why.
As I mentioned earlier, Isayama’s storytelling is perhaps one of the most stellar I have ever seen in the entirety of the anime industry. It is also one of the biggest factors that has made this season of Sn…

What makes a classic? Something that represents quality. Something that is unique, but nostalgic. Something that you can revisit multiple times, and discover something new every. single. time. Is Attack on Titan the modern anime classic that we've all been seeking? Will it stand the test of time? Who knows and, in all honesty, who cares.
To me, Attack on Titan is a classic because it is a masterpiece that's high-quality animation, storytelling, characters, and sound brings most works to shame, especially with Season 3 Part 2.
This story started with a boy craving revenge against what seemed like humanity's greatest enemy: the titans who trashed his hometown. But Hajime Isayama has been trying to tell us this whole time that this story was something so much more complex t…

Many people have anticipated the manga to be animated and when the wildfire spread all over the place in 2013, people were gushing over it. The popularity grew dramatically and along the way caused controversies as to whether it had become overrated. After watching the first 3 seasons, it is not. It never failed to deliver what Attack on Titan really is. So, what about this part of season 3? It still holds well. Whether you are a newcomer or a die-hard fan, you must admit that this is one of the best anime in a long time.
Story - 10/10
The story in Attack on Titan was always deep and left many of us speculating what would happen next and came up with many theories. When I saw the first few episodes, I thought that the armored and colossal titans were simply evolved versions of the normal…

This is the arc I think a lot of people were waiting for. The one with lots of answers. Seen folks complain for years about all the questions introduced with no immediate answers and I've seen endless memes about Eren never getting to that basement. Well we're here, we made it all the way to the sea even. But that's not enough. I think that's what Eren means at the end there, that they thought the sea would grant them freedom but in they search for freedom they only discovered that there's so much more out there. Like finally opening a door and then seeing a giant room in the other side. Heavy dose of perspective. It's not as simple as getting to the sea. There's so much more even beyond all we just saw.
Took them a year since Trost and six since Bertholdt and Reiner blew that hole in th…

Attack on Titan, the franchise that made a huge impact in the anime industry once again proves itself capable of carrying the torch. Before watching this part 2, I confess that the announcement of 10 episodes was slightly worrying. I approached this season with a bit of trepidation even with some of the jaw dropping cinematic trailers. Truth to be told, Attack on Titan has a lost some hype over the years but still manages to maintain a strong fan base. It’s for that reason and its many successes that we’re getting part 2.
At its most fundamental level, Attack on Titan has been a show about survival, dark fantasy, and action-adventure filled with mystery that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world. Author Hajime Isayama’s work has achieved an international level success with over 90 mill…

*Clap clap* before I start this review I will like us all to bow our heads and have a moment of silence for all our fallen comrades, just like us they them-self started this series from season 1, but as time passes and more seasons are release many has fallen and so I will like to congratulate each one of you for making it this far and finally being able to see what is in that damn basement! lol
Now let's begin this review.
Imagine if you were a fish that since birth has been living inside a fish tank, you are unaware that there is a bigger world out there with vast oceans where you can swim to many different areas and see various different species. That is basically what Eren and company were in, and we as the viewers were also in the same situation. Attack on Titan season 3 part 2 is t…

TL;DR: From Titans being shredded to human bodies being melted, this is the season fans have been waiting for since Season 1. We have been blue balled long enough. It's time to finally find out what's in that bloody basement. If you didn't watch any previous seasons, don't even bother reading or watching this anime. Go back to watching your crappy anime. We are in the endgame now.

I do not think I can ever give a 10/10 as quickly as I can for Part 2 of Season 3 of Attack on Titan. It has set the new standard for adaptations. Isayama's master storytelling, the exquisite soundtrack by Sawano, the emotional tight rope the studio had us walk throughout, the sweat-inducing action, and the perfection of the voice cast. Everything in this season has been fine tuned, and the end result is one of the greatest animated feats that I have ever had the pleasure of watching.
I have read the manga up to its most current chapter as of this review, but this review will be largely spoiler-free for both anime and manga viewers.
Part 2 of season 3 is the culmination of everything that the previous seasons, over all these years, had been building up towards. The answers that the cast…

Attack on Titan is the face of anime. It exploded onto the scene in 2013 with popularity unmatched by any other anime. No other anime has left as titanic of an impact as this one. It's the anime that introduces many newcomers into the medium. Many with no exposure to anime whatsoever have still heard of or even watched Attack on Titan. So it's only appropriate that it would be great, because that's what should be expected from what is essentially the representative of all anime. And for me, every season leading up to this one has met these high standards and been great.
But this...this is extraordinary!
WIT Studio clearly went all out with this season. It has practically everything that any rabid fanboy (and any casual watcher really) could possibly want: exhilarating action, captivating…

The unknown is always too easy labelled as a threat, and it is easy to join that particular chorus who claim it, mainly due to fear, fear of failure and concern of personal cost.
On the basis of that postulate, the journey resumes for our SnK characters, as they prepare to undertake a fierce battle against those who want to annihilate humanity...however, is that these guys objective?
It is well known the one-of a kind storytelling attributes this adaptation has: the understated foreshadowing –great for those who like to re-watch shows-, the captivating epicity, the more than famous plot twists; nevertheless, it never stops to amaze me the ability –and specially, in this season- they have had to build, step by step, a huge storyline that is both fascinating and enjoyable, while being able…

[Spoiler Warning]
Prior to season 3, little was known about the origins of the titans, as the previous seasons focused on humanity’s survival in the face of impending doom. While bits and pieces were revealed through the Reiss family history, nothing about the titan’s origins were divulged. Until now! Yet, should we be pleased with these revelations, or disappointed with the paltry character development? Because let’s face it: Attack on Titan’s (AOT’s) characters are terribly written.
Starting with Eren Yeager, he’s gone from being a vengeful edge-lord who was consumed with killing titans at all costs, to a whiny, vengeful edge-lord who can’t think beyond his emotions. Rage, sorrow, and regret is his entire range of feelings. Besides his family lineage and transformation into a Titan, h…
