Shingeki no Kyojin Season 3 - 5s Across the board.... For F--k Sake...
The only scene I liked was the last scene after the credits and even then, it still had no payoff, just like most of this season. Its like hey, you wanna see cool shit? Alright! Wait until next season to see that cool shit! Cause all you get now is build up for it!
Story -- 5;
With nothing but politics this entire third season and for some reason fannys, and I don't use that term lightly, thinking its great for reasons unknown. Simple things amuse simple minds I suppose. Which is why attack on
...
titan gets rated so high yet is shit!
I won't use that word again because I don't judge people for the shows they like, I believe you're allowed to like whatever the hell you want and fuck peoples opinions, they don't matter not even mine.
But here's my thoughts anyways, so the politics could be good, but all it is is random talk, its actually just a big facade of people in power doing bad things because yeah, that's always original, who would of thought the people in charge would be bad guys??? Most of the conversations in this entire show are literally nothing more then saying lets go fight this and then talking about plans on how to fight them and what to do and then when they get to fight its either a minute and over or a 5 second montage of action scenes that amount to nothing.
There was no fun, no thriller, nothing interesting, almost everything we learned about the titans was meaningless, yet it did advance the plot but you don't care because it ruins old plot lines they created, I actually gave the first season a 9 for the action and ideas alone, the choreography was stunning and even though the characters weren't that likable and a bit one dimensional there was still enough twists and turns to keep it well.
If you are reading this, you've probably seen the other two seasons, season 2 I didn't give a 9 I gave a 3, so hey at least season 3 gets a 5.Because it didn't have a shitty titan reveal or worthless dialogue, and it didn't feel like 12 episodes of complete shiste & nothingness.
Both seasons had horrible dialogue and horrible action, the only thing that gives season 3 the two extra brownie points is the fact that the story actually went somewhere this time. Except you still ruined attack on titan...
In season two we forget about the final scene that shows titans in walls and then spend 12 episodes talking and fighting and making it known others can be titans & after introducing these new titans and these new factions, they all get to be ignored this season. Making two pretty much again, useless... .... …
This season they address the titans by making it known --- --- (Spoiler Alert) --- --- That there is magical blood lines that created the titans,and that the king was controlling the country with titans using a titan that can remove peoples memory's and that we can give titan blood and create titans whenever we want because yeah yeah yeah yeah drama drama drama drama. Not to mention that the Arthur try's to say well the reason no one knows we make the titans and control the kingdom were already in control of is because some special bloodlines are immune to the mind eraser titan because that makes sense to. Its all magic, everything real about the show just got turned in magic and that's the explanation but yet your combining magic with science and needles and steampunk ODM gear. Alright yeah that makes attack on titan more epic then it was before. At least when you though the titans were science based or some form of nature it made the crystal hardening and the abnormal titans evermore interesting but now its just a magic roll of the dice titan TV show that I hate. What a shitty choice to make.--- --- --- (END OF THE SPOILER ALERT) --- --- ---
You just spent an entire season saying you don't know where titans came from, this is the fight against them there is an outside titan force introduced in season 2, yet season 3 is just meandering about titans inside the walls, so now its everyone vs everyone and we don't know who to trust and before we know it doors and trees and animals will be titans next and there will be the sun and the moon titan and what the fuck ever.... I made that up about the doors and trees titans but at this rate I wouldn't be surprised if the Arthur thought that was super duper creative and did it anyways.
I accepted the abnormal titans but come on, this is ridicules let alone the origins I refuse to mention here because I just did above in that spoiler sentence so read it there if you'd like. But the origins story, actually ruins the realistic tension of titans being a threat. And really puts a shit ton of loopholes in the story on how the hell that origin story works. Which the Arthur try's to explain with more loops holes mentioned once again in the spoiler above.
Characters; -- 3
Well Eren isn't just screaming and yelling like he was in season 2, but is he back to season 1? No... Season 1 all he wanted to do was kill titans, thats cool thats acceptable, season 2 he yells and is pissed he isn't in control and is a hostage and that entire season was just worthless drama let alone the 2 titan reveals that were total shit,
Season 3 Eren at least talks and discusses things, but do we get any character development? No... I remember nothing that eren said that mattered, none of the politics discussed mattered, honestly eren was just in chains and a hostage again for 3-4 episodes but at least it wasn't the entire season like the 2nd.
Mikasa is still obsessed with eren like always and will defend him like always, we have this new gal historia but she isn't really important in the second half besides for like 2 episodes and as a love interest for Erens new found harem storyline starting to take root.
We get a bunch of old characters back and are supposed badass Eli or whatever his name is, (I remember he is Levi) But because he did nothing in season 2 but clean house I didn't care, but now in season three none of them really do anything important. Levis squad is completely gone its pretty much him and Eren and some others you won't remember. & Levi being super dramatic and staring with spooky dark shadows under his eyes and his hand outstretched dramatically....Like hes about to go Kalii maaa Kali maaa Kalii maa and take his heart like some shit out of indiana jones.
We did however have one thing that mattered, and that was new badass guys with guns that shoot large spikes, because when your trapped inside walls and metal is scarce you want to use more rare materials then you would ever need because yeah bullets wont do.
They can also swing from the ceiling with them like spider man except with guns, and they don't even need the odm gear super narly dude narlastic dude.
Animation//art//sounds – 5
Speaking of which, they don't even take the time to animate that well anymore except for like 1 or 2 episodes most of the time its just them swinging through the air endlessly on the same animated track, it is in no way as dynamic as the first season. It actually reminds me of the horribly animated and reused scenes of naruto when they jump tree to tree and talk for 20 minutes. Yeah this is what Attack on titan is coming to.
Why do I compare it to the first? Because it seems like the writers & Arthur and directors, all said, well we made a successful first season, now the fans are hooked line and sinker, so lets just do shit from now on and what we come up it doesn't matter they will buy it no matter what because they think its so cool, and it kind of worked it just seems that the backlash of the extreme lameness of season 2 got such a hate filled rage that season 3 they made the show juuuuuust aaaaa litttttleeeee better! Ya know. Like just enough to wet the fans garments.
Enjoyment --- 5
I enjoyed some of the ideas, but the first 2 episodes and then episode 8-11 are like the only things you need to watch.
Everything else is a complete waste of time,, there might be something between episodes 3-7 but for me there wasn't Besides all of that new titan stuff that I guess won't be being put to use until the second cour, even though the titan stuff was the only good thing.
But even with those few highlights, the way they are done is just so boring and pathetic... I rolled my eyes at every reveal, I had to force myself to listen to the dialogue even though nothing anyone said this season mattered, Except for the few flashbacks that linked a few characters together but they once again were never used.
Overall --- 5
Over all I found that most of the """Powers""" you see this season, could have never been added, season 2 shouldn't of existed either, what makes me so upset with what has happened with this show is this.
I accepted the titans, I accepted the ODM gear because it was animated well the first season, & I went as far as to accept Eren turning into a titan because his scientist dad did it.
What ruins is, is that you took a show that had fantasy and realism, and then shit on the realism side that made it fun the first season and went full on fantasy, all of the gore and drama that made it fun is now melodrama,
By that I mean, its so watered down that its like teen age drama that you just roll your eyes at, relationship issues, and I mean It makes attack on titan feel like a slice of life and then you add action scenes that are badly done whilst trying to make it serious???
I mean that is the formula, you just tried to make people care about a show, without giving them anything to care about.
Let alone the new storylines you added, just put every other storyline out the window.
Eren trying to go and fight and take revenge is no longer a thing its like he could care less now.
Mikasa being important, nope shes a prop device and tsundere for Eren now.
The bad Levi, I called him Eli at some point in here, I apologize, is now useless, he twists peoples arms and says edgy shit to sound cool.
None of the fights are thought out, a lot of people say how can you not love the action, if you watch the first season and the amount of thought that goes into choreography surpasses all of these for example the Levi squad tearing down Ani, ana, whatever that gal titan was, whenever she was a titan, you can see they cut her tendons her eyes they destructed her, it was thought out and planned and that made it cool.
Nothing this season has any thought, not the story, the action or the dialogue and barely any thought to its own characters, its just edgy to be edgy and you get promised action not only the build up but long talks about it and then never get the reward.
FINAL THOUGHTS.....
They say, you cannot have your cake and eat it to, but in this case, there isn't even any cake to look at, the cake was a lie, there was and never will be any. Attack on titan is now just one big lie, that never stops promising something it will never give, and that's good action along with a good story together again, they gave up, just like I did on this show.
I'll still watch the second cour because everyone said that's when attack on titan feels like the first season again, but ya know, here's hoping that's true, we can only wait and see.
Thanks for reading & later my dudes & later my loves! - GodOfWolves...

Re;zero WAS, sorta, this show with some great qualities, action, growth, evil witches, despair, loss of hope, but also rebirth of
hope. All that good mumbo jumbo gumbo and what not. But now its a harem with friends instead of waifus. If you asked me if I wanted to re-watch this show I'd tell you that I'd re-watch it re-zero times! The conversations in this show are so cheesingly overly complicatedly bad and shamelessly written that the very love interest of suburu himself, who is Amelia thinks that babies come from kissing each other. - This is a great analogy for every other shallow conversation that takes place. - Also that ...

To start things off, I loved the first season... Howevvveeerrrrrr.......
First off the story... Horrible, In the first season it was great, we see many many new towns and have a good few trades and exciting moments with a diverse cast of characters and actual thinking involved. In the second season, we have one town, mainly one trade, a extremely smaller cast of characters and almost no progression besides mostly dribble, cut towards the end and they rush everything because they did not have the source material for another season. Making anyone who does another season either redo season 2, please god let that be, or B ignore the ... |
