This show must have left a deeper imprint in my younger self than I thought, as I remembered a lot of the characters which appeared in the final arc of this show.
So I did a rewatch of this using the Japanese version. I couldn't find a version with my native language which aired on tv so many decades ago, but I guess this way I get to see how it was originally made.
It holds up pretty well, better than a lot of other 80s cartoons. It's still very much an animation aimed at kids though, but one you wouldn't mind watching along as an adult.
The first arc is pretty much the story we all know when talking about the Wizard of Oz, it's the middle and last arcs which expand on the story which was completely new to me. Basically blew my mind as a kid, "say what, the story didn't end where it ends in the movie?!"
It's a fun cartoon for kids, and as far as kids' cartoons go, this is one of the better ones.

I am guessing this show is getting high numbers because of the subject matter. Because the story itself and characterisation is pretty mid. I would say the best thing about the series is the performances shown by the actors. Which was excellent.
If this wasn't based on a true story, I would imagine one would be saying the main character is the most unrealistic dumb character they have ever seen. It's like you're watching Homer Simpson in real life, but without the endearing factor of the character.
By the end you will come to believe that he enjoyed the torture he has lived through the season you just watched, that he comes back to look for more afterwards. Some indirectly by listening to his stalker's messages over and over like a common psycho, or more directly by trying to meet his tormentor(s) after the fact. He is a proper loser.
Easily one of my most hated characters I have seen on tv. And it's based on a true story. So an actual person behaved like this? Sheesh.
This show was 7 episodes of 30+ minutes, and it still had a lot of filler to fill up that short amount of time. How many times must we see the unfunny comedy act? Not enough apparantly.
Really dissapointed watch. I was expecting an 8 rating show, and got a 6 instead.

I am not sure if the creators of Attack on Titan intended the inference to the religious Sheep's Gate: a place where the people society didn't want were abandoned to. However considering the overall quality of this series, I wouldn't put it passed them. Especially as it works perfectly with the story being told.
This is one of the best television series I have ever seen. Not just anime, but of ALL of television. This is now the show I would rate closest to perfection, that I almost was considering giving it a 10.
It's amazing. It has Babylon 5 levels of earlier shown moments in the series becoming focal later on. It - is - AMAZING! (don't forget to watch the OVAs)
There are so many good things to say about this show. Choosing just one example. In season 1 when Eren says he's going to "kill them all", and we as the viewer are full on board with him.... Eren hasn't changed in season 4. He's still the same as in season 1 in his vindication when we were cheering him on to get his revenge.
WE as the viewers changed by that time by being aware of the entire story.
This is must see tv. Top tier.
