    Yeah, it's Attack on Titan time. Or, as the cool kids call it, Shingeki no Kyojin, but we aren't that cool here. Either way though, figured it's been a while since a big ol anime vs manga video and I had the itch to do one so why not make it about the anime that got me into anime in the first place. I hope you enjoy it :)

    Hey there, folks! Thanks for watching this one. I hope you liked it. Just wanted to mention that my goal is to get one of these videos done each month until April, so there should be one in early to mid February, another one in early to mid March, and yet another one in mid to late April. The plan might change, but I wanted to give you some idea of when they'll release.

    It's worth noting that Isayama is extremely involved in the anime's production, and everything is done with his say so. He's stated that he considers the anime the 'finished' version of the manga, or the 'final version'. Season 3 in particular was changed in some bits as that's how he wanted it. That cooperation is part of the reason it has been adapted so well.

    The reason why Attack on Titan's early art is so shobby is that Isayama himself said that when going to mangaka school he focused a lot more on taking the story and writing classes while other students tended to focus more on taking the art classes. This is why his art suffered in the early chapters, but he had already started to put a well-written story together. And it paid off- as he practiced drawing more over the years his art became really good- look at anything during and after the Marley Arc. And as the manga comes to a close, we can see that the story of Attack on Titan is way more cohesive and well written than a lot of its manga counterparts.

      With manga and other visual novels it's essentially 2 entirely separate skills: Drawing and writing. You always are more skilled in one than the other. Attack on Titan has those two very far apart. The art is good enough that it doesn't drag the manga down but the story is doing pretty much all the heavy lifting when it comes to sentiment and excitement.

    What's worse is that when Levi and co. return after losing the Female Titan, we meet Petra's father. Petra was the soldier in Levi's squad that Levi specifically took the patch from (he also stopped and blinked when he saw her body specifically, as opposed to passing over the bodies of the rest of his squad). When Petra's father excitedly goes to meet Levi, he's discussing how he thinks she's a bit too young to get married [to Levi] as Levi stares horrified and can't meet his gaze.
    That makes the whole Patch giving thing hurt more for me.

      To be honest, I kind of liked that the Manga didn't give that much special focus to Petra compared to the rest of Squad Levi. Even if most fans only really care about Petra (For obvious reasons), there's no reason for Levi to single her out over the rest of his Squad.

      @@CABRALFAN27 Likewise. Like, I assume Levi had planned on giving that patch to her father, but the anime then went and gave all the other members of the squads families that weren't shown in the manga. What does that say to their families- "Fuck you, you don't deserve keepsakes of your loved ones"? And if he was going to keep it for himself... why? Because she reminds him of Isabel even though we never see him having any meaningful interaction with Petra that would lend credence to that connection? That scene felt like pure fanservice, and I don't mean that as a compliment.

It makes sense to show one waiting for their kid there and being too worry to actually check, while the others are more naive and hope for a visit assuming they are coming back, it's a different type of pain and tragic moment yeah, but we see it from all of them and in the same amount.

      @@Silburific Levi didn't give the patch to her father bc he gave it to another soldier. He used little time he got before of getting in the horses to get the patch, he couldn't go to each one of the bodies bc they didn't have that much time (and it is a fact that Levi keeps them for himself if it's possible, in general, not just with Petra like she's special to him or anything related to Isabel, that was shown in an official art), but when two soldiers came back for the corpse of their friend, just to lose it, get one of them killed and make the others have to drop the rest of the corpses, the one soldier that was left was destroyed and Levi knew he needed something to keep going, so he it to him saying it was his friend's, so he could feel he had something from him. That's also why he looked at Petra's corpse like that when they had to leave it behind, he got something just from her and he knew he wouldn't keep it by that moment, which means he would have nothing from them, as all their bodies would be left behind and the only thing he got from one of them is something he knows he'll need to give away. It just add another storyline that says a ton with very little. This storyline could be done with any of the members of the squad yeah, but that means it's okay that it was with Petra, it's just the same as if he would have got to Eld first. In writing terms it makes sense that Petra was chosen tho, bc Eld and Gunther don't have that much screentime and Oluo is more of a comic relief and treated like a loser that tries to copy Levi but can't so all characters ignores him, Petra is the youngest, the more likeable, the softer and the one with more scene with our main character giving her more screentime, so if you want to choose some out of the four for a painful scene, it's clear who will make the public suffer the most, at the same time that it was made sense inside the story itself and for the characters too.

    from what I understand Isayama wanted the anime to be the “definitive version” of the story and gave guidance on the story changes and reordering to the staff. He also did that a good bit of that in season 3 bc he was somewhat unhappy with his work on that arc in the manga

    • @jrlombardi5251
      @jrlombardi5251 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      What Isayama said is that he uses the anime to fix his mistakes, which is why he considers that the ultimate version. But the studio also makes changes on their own, changes that sometimes Isayama can dislike, like the time he needed to ask them to take off that horrible lipstick from the female characters that they added for the first two seasons.
      The uprising arc was badly received on Japan, which affected Isayama, he thought he may have been making it too long making it boring and didn't work on it as good as always, which is why he changed and cut sm in that part of season 3.

    One thing that never bothered me that people seem to gripe about a lot are those still/unanimated shots that just sort of pan. People seem to take this as a weakness, as if because it's not animated, it indicates laziness or subpar quality of the show. Like you said in this video, they're done sparingly enough, and they're used to the best of their ability. Oftentimes they're used for small interactions/scenes that are just transitions from one bigger scene to the next. (i.e. in episode 11 when Armin and Eren say goodbye to one another before Eren is about to start to boulder mission) Or, they use these types of shots for montages while someone is doing a voice over. These still images are often extremely well-made. The art is good and detailed and adds a certain feel to the anime. It doesn't take you out of the moment of the show, especially since they're used smartly and sparingly, with other great moments of stellar animation elsewhere in the show.

    Regarding Eren's fakeout death in season 1 - anime did such a good job with atmosphere and setting that I really felt that nobody was safe here. Once Eren was swallowed by the titan I was seriously thinking on how the story would progress without him as well as considering 'Pokemon Adventures' or 'Jojo's Bizzare Adventure' type of protagonist situation, where the main character would change between certain sections of the story. It is really the only time in any media I can think of that pulled off such a feat so convincingly. Even more so, with Eren's appearance as titan and eventual confirmation that it is indeed Eren... I cried.
    Most of other times it would turn into Jeremy Clarkson 'Anyway' meme :)

    Wasn't their an anime only rage mode that gave eren the power to beat annie when in the manga eren had to throw mikassa at her.
    Assuming i remember right, I preferred the manga here. The rage mode seemed like some generic shonen anger boost and then had weird fusing that might never get explained or refrenced again because it's anime only.
    Another reason for manga over anime in that particular scene was it highlighted even with eren at full power he can't do everything and needs to rely on his friends and the core in a symbiotic way where one couldn't have taken Annie down without the other.

      @pachutoazumadre32xD 3 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      THIS EXACTLY!
      Armin comments during the fight that rage and willpower alone won't win the battle, and in the manga he's right, he has to do teamwork and learn to keep his cool. In the anime Armin is proven wrong and Eren wins because he's the angriest of the battle.
      It's a shame because later on what wins Eren any battles is not anger, but strategy and teamwork.
      The team of abandoning your humanity is not that literal.

      It was revealed in one of the recent chapters that the female titan can absorb the powers of the other titan shifters to an extent. And the fusing was her absorbing the attack titan

    Awesome video, and can't wait to see the rest in the series! And agreed with pretty much everything you said. I may be in the minority but I hated the changes made to the final Eren vs Annie fight in the S1 finale. More specifically, the thematic changes about Eren hesitating leading to disastrous consequences are pretty good, but Eren's red glowing berserk mode and the depiction of the fight being so much more one-sided in Eren's favor felt too distant from the manga for me. Narratively, that final fight between Eren and Annie was a big deal because of how strong Annie was, and I preferred their fight to be more equally matched with Eren ultimately winning with the help of the Survey corps, rather than it being Eren going super saiyan and beating her near single handedly.

    Looking at Season 1 changes / additions, I am incredibly impressed on how many of these have naturally and organically fit into overall themes of story, including future events with recent manga chapters on top. As someone who has started reading manga after first season of anime ended I am pleasantly surprised on which scenes specifically were anime exclusives. This just shows how good of a writer Isayama is as well as how deeply well understood the source material was by anime staff. I am quite curious though if these changes were consulted with manga author beforehand or not. If the latter is true, even more kudos to the adaptation.
    I am very interested on your thoughts on Seasons 2 and 3. While I love season 1 to death, I had mixed feelings towards further adaptations, especially in light of the first part, which set the bar way too high for sequels (fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it).

    I might not agree with your with the last point. In the manga, Eren being determined and acknowledging that he has to fight Annie on his own felt more impactful to me, than being stabbed in the body and losing his humanity in the process. The berserk Eren mode in the end seemed more like a hyped moment made to please and excite viewers, we never see his titan this way and it feels out of place.
    Also in the end, anime only showing Mikasa being with Eren and not his other friends sitting next to the bed talking seemed dismissive of them. Minor change, but it felt unnecessary.

    Good timing. Have watched anime but not read manga, and have had a friend asking me if it matters what he starts with.
    I knew there was some restructuring at the start, but having it detailed is making me insist he at least starts with the anime season 1, then he can continue watching or reading whichever is convenient for him. Those first impressions are pretty important, and since he's been apprehensive of the hype and him avoiding it so long, wanna make sure he's going in the ideal way.
