Attack on Titan Season 2
Summary of the review: This season is probably the most boring and took me so long to complete.
Story or Plot = 7/10:
- In all honesty, the story just continues as we venture on to the protagonists and how they deal with all of the titans but due to the cliffhanger of the previous season which has a titan inside the fucking wall (literally) and it got discovered and was stopped to inform the public because of a fucking religion belief that it came from God which is annoying, ridiculous, and im-fucking-possible yet the terror in the priest's eyes are a given and I would have just killed him at that point because of how useless he is to keep informations to help humanity which I will explain in the character section later on. We discovered that there is someone that is actually in the Survey Corps that is related to the walls (as a topic) and we have to find her. The process of me watching this season is really long and I didn't really have the motivation to continue on as I can't really find a chance to like this series as of yet.
Characters = 8/10:
- Given that we have identified 3 shifters due to macropacing and all the while we have actions and a bit of a flashback during their times of training as to show more character understanding who they are and their backstory all taking place in one day (night?) but going back to the religion topic, all I want to say is religion reasons are bullshit when you are in a war against titans and thinking that religion is far important than the lives of others is utterly ridiculous to the point I applaud of his conviction to not tell even when he gets interrogated and intimidated.
- During the flashback, we get to know more about Historia and Ymir , that and also finding out that Ymir killed Berthold, Reiner, Annie's ally unintentionally I think.
- We get to understand that all the titans that they are killing were previously humans and seeing that Levi thought that he is just a murderer is interesting but he got over it thanks to Commander Erwin
- Commander Erwin is the type of person who would do anything for the benefit of humanity and that shows during the rescue mission for Eren Yeager as his arm was bitten off prior to the reveal of titans were previously human
Animation = 7/10:
- Not much could I find anything bad to say the least, other than the monstrocity of a CGI for the Colossal Titan which looks really bad during the reveal of the 2 Titan Shifters in the walls after their mission to retrieve Krista Lenz (Historia Reiss)
- I could see some repeated movements or at least I think it is repeated movements.
Artstyle = 6.5/10:
- Like I said in the previous review for Attack on Titan, I am not a big fan of the artstyle that is being used for Season 1 and 2 as they feel plastic but the Titan designs mainly the Shifters are looking good, understandably so is that I love the background designs because it is really pleasing to look at but even so I will rate this a 6.5.
Soundtrack = 6.5/10:
- Not much can I remember about the soundtracks that are presented on each episodes of Season 2 of Attack on Titan and I am not really fond of the opening of Season 2 as it isn't really my type of opening song.
Final Review: This season took so long for me to complete because I ended up being bored on this season of the anime yet I persevered to complete it because I started to watching this franchise and I have to complete it in order to move on to another anime, I leave no hatred on this franchise and understandably so is that I am not a great anime reviewer as this is all that I can say because I am not really that adept to understanding animations and more.
