Review

I watched the first few episodes on nextflix but it’s not in English so I opted to go with the manga to check it out because the complete series exists instead of just season one. This is my first manga so I don’t really have any prior experience to base it off when it comes to the art or story. I like the art it’s not over complex when it comes to telling the story it seems to work for the gritty horror story. So far the story while is well developed it’s easy to get lost turning the pages.

The Seventh installment the Survey Corps are still outside the wall only they have caught the female titan with the anticipation of figuring out who’s really inside. However before they can take her back to the base she lets loose a cry calling all the titans who are near to charge into the forest right for her eating her body as she sheds her titan form. Leaving them stuck trying to figure out who it was. Armin may not be the fighter that Mikasa is but he’s clearly very intelligent and might just be able to figure who’s the spy among the ranks.

I enjoyed volume 7 it’s a little more of what’s going on learning more about the titans. We are starting to see more of Armin’s true character as well as Mikasa who we already know is a badass. Secrets are unfolding slowly in the story but it’s starting to reveal more and more that maybe some of the few know more about the reason the titans exist than they are letting on. Another fast paced action packed installment the more I learn the harder it is to put them down. I’m curious to see who’s the female titan and what they plan to do about her. So far I’m really enjoying the way the series is going and can’t wait to finish. I very well could spend the next day finishing off the series because I’m hooked. It just keeps getting better and better as the manga progress.
