Anime

Watched the first season of Attack on Titan. Well, my impressions are mixed. The beginning didn't impress me at all; I expected something more powerful from a post-apocalyptic setting. Instead, we have overgrown zombies (I've never liked zombies), "Oh no, we're all going to die!" and "Oh no, how weak humans are!", and then, as the icing on the cake, the Chosen One appears, who is just an ordinary, slightly clumsy, but very, very determined young man, and he gives everyone Hope. Wow, how original... However, it would be okay, but oh, those Titan faces, who even came up with them? In my opinion, these attempts to scare people look cheap. I liked the second arc more. There are more relationships between people and fewer Titan faces. There is, however, a downside here too – the opening in the first arc was better. And then they suddenly decided to put a song in German... I don't even consider Japanese to be particularly melodic, and they put a song in what I think is the worst language on Earth, strange people. And it's some kind of march. But okay, these are all minor things, the main thing is that the action becomes more interesting. By the way, the Titans have another problem, especially when it comes to the human-like Titans. It's strange to watch how some greenhorns single-handedly mow down entire armies, just because they happen to be able to transform into Titans. This devalues some of the conflicts; for me, it's normal that strength must be earned, not obtained in such an easy way. And then, "Oh, she can regenerate one eye instead of two!", "Oh, she can also cast stone skin!", "Oh, he really wanted to kill the Titans and burst into flames, and suddenly he started defeating his opponent with ease!", in short, it looks like some kind of nonsense. First, level up, and then show off your skills; it's not okay to rely solely on willpower, it doesn't happen like that! In conclusion, "Attack on Titan" would probably be a very good anime if it didn't have Titans. I'll keep watching.
