Possibly one of my favourite anime's of all time, is the series called Attack on Titan. It is a Japanese show based on giant Titans who attack the last stronghold of man. It is based on a Manga / Comic series.
- The first episode debuted April 6, 2013.
- The Manga was written by Hajime Isayama, the Anime series was created by Tetsuro Araki
- The Studio was called Wit Studio Production I.G
- Won the Kondansha Manga Award in 2011.
- Was nominated for the 4th annual Manga Taisho award
- Second highest selling Manga series of 2013
- 30 million volumes sold
- The Anime series won during the Newtype Anime Awards - Best script, Best director, Best soundtrack, Best theme song, top female character and Title of the Year.
- It received the award of best TV animation at the 2013 Animation Kobe Awards.
- The Colours and style are bold and intense, there is a lot of technical drawing, particularly background scenes. Nothing is simple about the style, yet the style is beautifully done, and really encaptures you into the scene and story. The animations are smooth, and unique, no one animation is overplayed, and each titan has its own 'personality' as such.
- The dark side of Attack on Titan appeals to me, plus the amazing visuals, story line and plot. The animations are so smooth and the background painting is so effortlessly done, it really adds to the vibe and feel of the show. The soundtrack and audio for the series is superb and fits really well within the show's theme.
