Attack on Titan

Post by Jet_Jaguar »

Has anyone else watched Attack on Titan? I've started watching it on Netflix and I'm enjoying it so far.

Another recent anime show with similar themes that's worth a look is Knights of Sidonia, which premiered in the US on Netflix recently:

Dear Readers,
I really enjoyed the first season (of 4?) of Attack on Titan.
Streamed it on Netflix.
Great story and inventive writing.
Not for children.
Best wishes to all!

He does not want to send his young readers into depression due to the extinction of our species.

I've been following this series since episode 2 aired in Japan. I highly recommend reading the mangas as the anime won't be airing seasons 2 for awhile. The story is amazing!
