I really need to check out Attack on Titan soon. A friend of mine has watched it, and he usually doesn't like dark stuff. He was constantly telling us how he had no idea why he did it, but he continued watching it.

Monster might still be my favourite anime series. It's the only series with more than 20-30 episodes (70+ actually) that I recommend without hesitation if you find the first few episodes interesting at all.

I'll second that Monster was great.

I finished reading the first chapter of Attack on Titan - Before The Fall, and sadly i think it's awful. The story is inconsistent with the main series, generic artwork, bad pacing, forced plot developments, and wastes pages in regards to panel layout

That makes me ask, how's the SnK manga compared to the anime adaption?

The artwork is not as crisp or proportioned as the anime's, but i  think it's better at depicting the dread of the titans, the ugliness of the deaths, and the characters's emotions. On the flipside the anime is superior in terms of it's depiction of the combat scenes.(since the introduction of the female titan Isayama has improved his artstyle, and skills.)

Another difference is that the author's placement of flashbacks can be a little confusing vs how the anime incorporated them, like Eren's flashback during his first transformation. Some scenes were altered in the anime like Annie laughing (unneeded), while the reveal of the *spoiler* in the wall was handled differently in the manga as it took place during the day iirc. Episode 24 is filler but i think it's needed as the manga doesn't go into detail about Eren's discovery of the female titan's identity before their confrontation. (I think it's excluded in the manga because it potentially reduces the shock value of the reveal.) The manga includes a side story that was excluded from the anime as it's prematurely spoillerific.

Overall i think they're equal, but i prefer the manga due to me reading it first, the artstyle (subjective), it being the source material, and it's further along than the anime.

Monster is fantastic.



I watched the first episode of "Kill La Kill" today. Ridiculous series, but so entertaining.

Also, more people should see the Monogatari series.

The only difference between manga and anime (SnK) that got me really pissed was the final episode, when Eren goes into super saiyan mode and starts burning etc.

'EDITED

I'm glad that stuff was not canon, it didn't make Eren any more badass or scary, the fact that he kicked the **** out of Annie in his normal titan form was 100x times more satisfying and entertaining considering how Annie screwed him up in the forest.

Finished Spice and Wolf yesterday, it was pretty great but I felt the first season had too much hand-holding and nudging so the audience wouldn't miss out on the "economics".

Started WataMote; I thought this was supposed to be a comedy but it's depressing so far, I'm scared.

The comedic situations get exponencially more over-the-top (ie funnier) as the series goes. But, well, the situations themselves also get more embarassing, so it depends on how much of the one you want and how much you can take of the other one.

I suggest you finish the series on episode 11, since at least that leaves it in a much, much lighter note.

Watamote is so sad...if you can relate to some of the situations.

At least the main character has a positive-ish attitude and keeps on trying.

Obligatory.

As a sidenote, I just spent the last 30 minutes watching SnK opening parodies. Now I can't get the song out of my head.

Has anyone been to Comic-Con in London? I got told by some friends that it is open on Saturday and Sunday.

I've never been to one before, are they any good?

She really should just fight naked. She tears her clothes in every fight she's in. That's a waste money, or sowing.

Indeed.

Did you catch up with HSDK though? On another note in The Breaker Nine Arts Dragon returned.

Nope. I'm not a fan of grammatically retarded fanlations so I stopped reading at 433. Not trying to deal with 100+ more chapters of bullsh*t. I'm probably done with it.

lol. I guess after reading JJBA's Duwang translation, it desensitized me to bad grammar.
