==Sum it up in a Sentence:==
Bad-ass story about giant-slaying.

==Main Description==
Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly exterminated by giants. Giants are typically several stories tall, seem to have no intelligence, devour human beings and, worst of all, seem to do it for mindless pleasure rather than as a food source. A small percentage of humanity survived by walling themselves in a city protected by extremely high walls; even taller than the biggest of giants.

Flash forward to the present, and the city has not seen a giant in over 100 years. Teenage boy Eren and his foster sister Mikasa witness something horrific as the city walls are destroyed by a super giant that appears out of thin air. As the smaller giants flood the city, the two kids watch in horror as their mother is eaten alive. Eren vows that he will murder every single giant and take revenge for all of mankind.

===Characters===
====Eren Yeager====
The protagonist of the series. He has green eyes and brown hair, and is typically headstrong and emotional. After his town was attacked by the Collosus Titan when he was 9 years old, he has sworn an unrelenting revenge against all titans.
====Mikasa Ackerman====
A girl with black hair and gray eyes, she excels at combat and keeps a calm demeanor. She was adopted by Eren's family at a young age, and is very protective and attached to Eren.
====Armin Arlert====
A boy with blond hair and blue eyes, he is Eren's best friend despite being physically weak. Although lacking in self-esteem, he has a brilliant tactician's mind, and is willing to follow his friends anywhere they go.

==Personal Opinions==
===IShallRiseAgain===
This series is pretty awesome. One of its greatest strengths is how well thought out and developed the setting is. You can tell how much effort the author put into the world-building and it doesn't feel like the setting merely exists as a convenient plot element generator. The plot itself is interesting, and encourages lot of speculation. The action is also pretty great. Its an all-around good series, and I highly recommend checking it out.
===Willsun===
Although not as obviously apparent as series like Naruto or other popular, long-running shonen, the anime series does suffer a few bouts of dragged out internal monologue. The frustration is probably a testament to how much you'd want to keep finding out about this world though, so if it's too slow for you, you might want to go ahead and read the manga. Otherwise, if you stick around for when action does happen in the anime, it is wonderfully detailed (thanks to Production I.G) and happens more frequently despite my misgivings about the dragging parts.
