Very disappointing. Undoubtedly, this is the worst attack on titan season of all time. I don't understand why this season finale is getting a rating of 9, but I'm guessing this is because of the bullshit respect campaign being called out by the weebs who think Mappa is the savior god of the series and it's okay if the animation is bad, because they are heroes who dare to take it. impossible project in the middle of busy with other anime projects (sounds stupid).
I don't care about the things behind the scenes of this anime, what I criticize is how the quality of this anime
...
has dropped considerably when compared to when WIT studio handled it.
Art + Animation 3/10: I'm sick of people saying that MAPPA's AOT animation is better than WIT just because the drawing style is closer to the manga version. It is as if they forgot what masterpiece WIT has presented through 3 seasons AOT which is arguably one of the most phenomenal Japanese animation works of this century. AOT MAPPA does not provide image quality that is comfortable enough to be viewed continuously without having to pause a little looking at your smartphone or your surroundings. Too much CGI in the titan battle scene is unforgivable for me personally because there are so many potential battles that would be much better if using 2D animation. For example, the Eren vs Warhammer battle. worst? Levi vs Beast Titan which is very disappointing
Sound + Music 3/10: Remember Erwin Charge? Armin's sacrifice? what makes those scenes one of the best tv series episodes of all time? Music. Placement of music that is right and right according to the scene makes the scene more lively and guides the audience's feelings to get into the story more. Does MAPPA AOT do it? unfortunately I personally don't think so. Maybe they tried, it just didn't work out badly. Ashes of Fire which is repeated many times, the selection of music that does not match the atmosphere of the story, and the placement of the music that is not right makes emotional and thrilling scenes not reach the audience
Character 6/10: Some of the old characters still have the same traits, but some changes in the old character traits like Eren who looks more aggressive make a good refresh on some sides. It's just that new characters like Yelena whose motives are too weak to go that far make the story seem forced to provide an antagonist.
Story 6/10: The story in this season finale includes everything in the manga version and no important things are cut so that the core points are maintained and keep the storyline in control until the end (it's just bad art and animation enough to make me bored a few times and tired of following the story). Marley-Eldia's politics were quite simple. Marley has a grudge against Eldia, and Eldia wants to be free from Marley. However, the narratives that each character brings to this issue are too circular and seem to be repetitive just to explain the same thing.
Enjoyment 5/10: Watching AOT Season finals is like doing a math assignment from your teacher. Annoying, but needs to be resolved. Several times I was irritated by the animation and the placement of the music.
The essence of my review is, AOT Final season is a drastic decline compared to the previous seasons. In my opinion, the quality that is delivered seems modest and does not have a sense of sympathy for the fans of this series. I don't care about schedules, or anything. If they dare to hold a project as big as AOT, then they should be ready for high quality demands
