    Such a frustrating disappointment

    Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

    Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

    The first must-see film of the year.

    The story line is painfully similar to attack on Titan but it deviates just a little bit around episode 5. It's too much violent but I still found it entertaining. I wouldn't recommend it if you already saw AOT.

    While none of the elements of this show are highly original, the whole, in this case, is much greater than the sum of its parts. Set in medieval Japan, the characters have no effective weapons against countless undead zombies. Instead, they apply ingenuity to build defensive cities connected by a network of train tracks. The characters respond to dire challenges with relatable levels of bravery and wit, and the show moves from obstacle to obstacle at a blistering pace. Still, there is enough character interaction for us to form a connection and desire to seem them succeed. Dramatic sequences play out with surprising deft of color, angle, music cue, and character. Strap in for a thrilling ride.

    I'll be brief, I love this anime already. I watched the first episode not really expecting much and I was amazed. I then watched the rest of the season, and loved every minute. The story is great, the animation is beyond top-notch, the voice acting and characters are great, and I absolutely love the music (especially the opening and closing themes). On top of all that, it's intense but also emotional, and it mixes those perfectly. I don't know why people keep saying it's an Attack on Titan clone, because it's not. It's it's own original idea. It takes a zombie apocalypse to a whole new level and it is great. All in all, it's one of those very rare perfect anime shows. Can't wait for the second season, I hope there's a second season.

    This anime has exceeded my expectations the first episode (spoiler free) is 10 times better than attack on titan's first season altogether, we are introduced to a great variety of characters at the start- Mumei, Ikoma, Yukima, Sukari and a lots of other characters at the start first of all Ikoma is way more intriguing than eren yaeger but anyways on to the important stuff, there is some sort of apocalypse going on during and industrial revolution, you aren't given any explanations about how it started but all you know is that the creatures are called kabane (zombie like creatures) and they can only be killed by piercing their heart, as for the survivors, they all live in big walled cities called stations, the only way in and out is by armored trains which look awesome, Ikoma is working on a special weapon which he believes kills the kabane easily and one day his skills are put to the test when the kabane invade the station, I'm not going to say anything else, just watch it, I guarantee you will love it after the first episode.
