Description

In a world where humanity is on the brink of extinction, the remnants of civilization have retreated behind towering walls to escape the relentless threat of the Titans—colossal, humanoid creatures that devour humans without remorse. The story begins with Eren Yeager, a young man filled with fervor and determination, who yearns to explore the world beyond the protective barriers. He is driven not only by curiosity but also by a deep-seated desire for revenge against the Titans who have decimated his home and taken away those he loves.

As the peaceful existence of the walled society is shattered by a sudden and catastrophic Titan attack, Eren's life is turned upside down. Alongside his friends, Mikasa and Armin, he grapples with the chaos that ensues, witnessing firsthand the horrors of their world. The trio embarks on a perilous journey, where courage is not just a choice but a necessity, as they confront their fears and discover the strength that lies within them.

Throughout this gripping introduction to a harrowing saga, they encounter formidable foes, profound losses, and the unrelenting fight for survival. Their quest reveals dark secrets about the Titans and the world they inhabit, setting the stage for a battle that is not just against external monsters but also against the despair that threatens to engulf humanity.

★★★★½

Yeah... this was brutal.

The first volume really wastes no time showing you that nobody is safe. Eren is already annoying as hell but I kind of get him because this man has spent his entire childhood wanting freedom just to watch his entire world get destroyed in about five minutes.

Mikasa is THAT girl though. The way she handles herself compared to everyone else? Yeah.

The artwork is rougher than the anime, but honestly I like how ugly and unsettling the Titans look. They don't even look scary in a normal way. They look WRONG.

And then that ending???

Yeah, I'm reading the next volume immediately.

loved the anime so far so i decided to check out the manga & i have no complaints other than the fact that they cut out all their time at training but maybe they’ll revisit it later
