This is a review for the first 14 volumes, because I read them all at once, in about three days. For the most part, each volume is like one chapter of this story, so it works.

I really do like Attack on Titan - I started with watching the Anime, and finding out Season 2 won't come until 2016 - I

realized I need more story, there is just too much odd stuff with this series, and totally heartbreakingly scary. Death is not sugarcoated. And people here die in horrible ways, usually by getting eaten by a Titan. The story is tight - the graphics are top-notch. Highly recommended if you are looking for something that is different, but grabs you, emotionally.

The characters are well written, even the ones that are written as a comic relief (Sasha and her appetite for example). These are all emotionally developed characters, who grow from the begining of the series as fighting titans takes it toll (along with learning about corruptness of some humanity). These are not people who want to fight. These are people who do what it takes to survive and protect humanity.

I think I like the anime better, but it might be because the color and sound adds a lot to the horror that is a titan. The plot between the two versions are almost the same, except for vary minor changes.

This is the 11th volume in the Attack on Titan series. I enjoyed it; it was action packed and started to move the story forward again.

This was mostly a large battle between the Armored Titan and Eren. The battle scenes were well done and I enjoyed the illustration. There are a lot of battle scenes

though; this is a quick read because maybe ⅓ of the book is just illustration.

We do get some flashbacks into when Eren was training with the people who turned into Titans and some insight into the fighting techniques Eren learned.

The best thing about this volume was the end. It looks like we are finally going to get some story and explanation behind these other humans that can turn into Titans. I look forward to reading about that in the next book.

I mainly recommend this book to older teen and older readers because of the level of violence and gore in it.

Overall this was a great continuation of the Attack on Titan series. The story is still moving a bit slow for me, but it does look like we are going to find out some interesting things in the next book...so I look forward to that. I would recommend to those who enjoy action-packed manga.
