Attack on Titan
Today's anime is special because it's my favorite; it's none other than Attack on Titan. I have been watching this anime since it was released in 2013. I was very young when I first watched this anime, and since then, I have become a big fan of it. This anime took long enough to end, and I had to wait years for it to complete. I never thought of reading the manga, as I am lazy and I only like to watch animated series the most, so I have only watched the animation. Today, I felt like reviewing this incredible anime for you guys, so you will feel like watching it too. I will be reviewing season 1 for now.
I still can't believe my eyes; it has been about 12 years since the trailer was released, so that was a long time ago. However, AOT still stays in the heart and fills the void. To be honest, the trailer is not the best, but AOT is one of the best anime in history, and that's my personal opinion. It's truly been a happy, long journey. If you watched the trailer, you have noticed how intense the music is and how perfectly it fits the scenarios. So when you watch the anime, you will feel even more connected to it. Anime was never the same after this dropped. I never thought that this would be one of the best anime ever created. I did not start watching this anime through the trailer; I just started watching it randomly because I wanted to get a taste of it.
Spoilers Ahead!
The story begins with a young boy named Eren. He lives in a place where big walls are built because, in the past, there were giant Titans that used to devour humans. For that reason, the walls were created to stop the Titans from coming into the city. Eren has friends, Mikasa and Armin, and they used to play and have fun together as kids. One day, the wall broke, and it was done by the Colossal Titan. This allowed other Titans to invade. It was a disaster; people were devoured instantly, and they were all trying to save themselves. When this happened, Eren was traumatized because he saw a Titan eating his mother alive. This broke Eren's heart, and then he decided to take revenge and save the city from the Titans.
Eren joined the Survey Corps, which is also known as the Scout Regiment. This military branch was built to scout outside the walls, fight the Titans, and inquire about them. Eren joined because he wanted to reclaim humanity's freedom. It was obvious that the trigger was his mother's death, which made him follow this path. Mikasa and Armin also followed Eren's footsteps and joined the team with him. It always felt like Mikasa had feelings for Eren, but he was unaware of it. As they have been friends since childhood, feelings can occur.
Mikasa is one of my favorite characters, or you can say my idol. Mikasa has a strong character; even though she has a weakness for Eren, as a person and as a soldier, she is perfect. Mikasa is truly loyal to Eren and her friends. She puts everyone else above herself. If you talk about physical strength, then she is strong enough and one of the most skilled fighters. Even though she has faced hardships in life, she continues to persevere.
Another character that I like the most is Levi Ackerman. He is a natural leader who commands respect from his subordinates. He is also a fan-favorite character, more than Eren Yeager, based on what I have seen so far. He can make tough decisions and guide his team effectively in pressured situations. Anyway, Levi possesses exceptional combat abilities and is highly determined and focused on his goals. He doesn't show it, but Levi cares deeply for his comrades and can go through anything for them.
This anime has touched my soul, and I can never get enough of it. I will always be in love with it, and no one can change my mind. I actually don't care about its negative reviews; all I care about is whether I have liked it or not, and I definitely loved it. There's no way I can turn it down. Even though now, in 2025, many animes have been released, the one that will always be on top for me is one and only AOT. Season 1 is really good if you haven't tried watching it yet then your losing many things. If you enjoy season 1 then you will probably like the other season as well.
