+
+/Attack on Titan/ may very well the defining anime of this decade.
+It started as a huge hit, then it faded into obscurity, just to return with a huge bang and end with huge dissapointment.
+
+The premise is quite interesting:
+humanity is close to extinsion, locked behind walls.
+Outside lives the biggest threaad man has ever faced - Titans.
+Race of gigantic, humanoid beasts whose only purpose in life is to attack and devour humans.
+We meet our heroes - Eren, Mikasa, and .... - just before Titans breach one of the walls.
+
+The following 4 seasons differ in quality.
+
+The first one is intersting, but suffers from terrible narration where we are constantly interrupted by internal monologues.
+The second one has no idea what it wants to be, and this is where viewership dropped sharply.
+Then came the third one. About hafway through everything changes.
+Without spoiling anything, /AoT/ stops being dumb fun and seems to be an inteligent commentay on human condition.
+Before that, I was wathing the series because I had nothing better to do.
+After /this/ scene I instantly became invested and shocked.
+Then the fourth came out, developing on what made the thirg great.
+I was close to calling this a great series, but unfrotunatelly it's all thrown out the window when the 2.5 hours long finale is finised.
+So much potential, such great buildiup.
+All wasted in the name of a boring fight.
+I don't remember when was the last time I felt so betrayed.
+
+The great part of /AoT/ takes a lot from history, and great fiction like Dune.
+We're seeing great idea one after another.
+The story is full of interesting twists.
+It's all meaningless.
+
+The only two redeming qualities of this series are personal jurneys of Eren and Gabi.
+Only their stories interest me.
+Not that there is anything bad about the rest of the characters, they are ok.
+Run of the mill anime characters.
+
+Yes, the series looks and sound pretty.
+It's full of nicely animated action scenes.
+But I can't stop comparing it to /Evangelion/.
+
+Both series start cool, but are not memorable.
+Then they develop into marvels, pure greatess.
+But /NGE/ never stopped being great.
+After it gained actual meat, it developed it culminating in the greatest movie I've ever experienced.
+
+/AoT/ ends in /Iron Man 3/ - a prolonged, boring fight scene.
+
+And while the scenes shown during end credits return the series on its track, it changes nothning.
+They nicely connect and develop the great ideas behing the /golden era of AoT/, they should not.
+The ending should be it, as the way it happened is I wasted 2.5 hours filled with boredom.
+
+It could have been great, but it is not.
+It's an ok action series with some unresolved ambitions.
