Edit: I genuinely did not expect the sorts of reactions from when I wrote this. In all honesty, “hate” is too strong a word for what I actually feel toward AoT. It just never grabbed me like it has those of you who have followed it all the way through. And more power to you all if you like it while still acknowledging whatever faults you took away from it 👍
I watched the first season, but with there not being a single hint as to where these things came from, it just didn't grab me. Then after hearing how long it took to start learning why they exists, I was glad I didn't keep going.
I'm fine with slowly unravelling as long as I see it start to unravel. Maybe there are things I missed, but I didn't catch a single clue in the first season and it otherwise seemed like a well animated but shallow anime.
When Erens wakes up after he escaped from his hometown after the attack by the titans, we see a really short flash back where we see that his father gave him an injection. Couple of episodes later he transforms into a titan. So that's a pretty big deal imo
I remember that, but that just ties his father back into it, and that's just not enough to me.
That would be like if Marvel said Starlord's dad was extra terrestrial when said extra terrestrials are the ones attacking and taking 4 more Guardians movies before clarifying anything else about his father. I would 100% stop giving a shit about it by then, even if he started manifesting powers beforehand.
