I only got a few episodes into the third season for this. It wasn't a fun show to watch weekly so I decided to hold off, then I just never got around to it again.

Premise: Humanity has retreated behind high walls to hide from the ravenous titans. Then one day they manage to break through the first gate, and Eren Yeagers life changes forever.

The Good: Attack on Titan is an action anime where they use a kind of grappling hook system to battle gigantic titans. I really love the setting and the premise. It was like a new take on a zombie apocalypse where the zombies are huge. I liked the various characters in the training class (though badass Mikasa was my obvious favorite). This is a world that felt like it had a ton of secrets lurking just over the horizon, and I was excited for the characters to begin exploring it.

The Bad: Attack on Titan killed a lot of my enthusiasm early on. This is a spoiler from a bit into the first season, but its so central to the series that I imagine most people know about it by now. The instant Eren turned into a Titan himself, my hype levels dropped. It went from a giant zombie apocalypse to, I guess a biological mecha show? Suddenly it was about super titan powers and not methodically clearing out titans and reclaiming the land like I hoped it would be.

Overall: This was a hard anime to rank because I definitely enjoyed it for what it was. Given how popular Attack on Titan is, its also probably a good thing it went the way it did rather than how I hoped it would. I was just super into it when it seemed like a fairly grounded setting other than the existence of these gigantic titans, but then it turned into a quasi-mecha show with weird powers and I dunno, it just wasnt my favorite thing. Ill go back and finish it someday but I havent gotten around to it yet.
