Attack on Titan: Colossal Edition 1

Product Information

It’s ironic that, a year ago, I couldn’t care less about the series. Now I can't wait to dive into the pools of blood it. For those drawn in by the hypnotic spirals of Uzumaki, this is your moment. Start coloring every single one of the spirals yourself! We follow a world in which humanity has been invaded by these Titans, which eat humans. Humans have been forced to build walls and live behind them. There aren’t many left. These walls are supposed to be titan-proof. Humans seem to have forgotten about the dangers outside. Eren, one of our main characters, wants to go beyond the wall. They do well until the way comes with a Colossal Titan breaking through the wall. A colossal Titan is something that humans haven’t seen before. They are bigger, faster, and meaner. It starts killing people. No one knows what has changed and it sparks fear. Throughout the series, we learn that humans don’t know all that much about Titans, which makes them even scarier. First off, the characters. Literally all of them. I had a couple of favourites, (Sasha, Connie, Marco and Jean) but overall I understood where people were coming from and why they acted the way they did even when they didn’t have a POV.

In the year 845, the nation of Marley sent out Bertholdt, Reiner Braun, Annie Leonhart, and Marcel Galliard across the sea to Paradis Island as the start of the Paradis Island Operation. [3] Story [ ] The Fall of Shiganshina arc [ ] The several fight scenes between Eren and the Female Titan are intense; the identity of both the Colossus Titan and Armored Titan unexpected.Anyway, good shit in this omnibus. Roughly three whole volumes of the five contained are dedicated to the Female Titan, as introduced in the end of Colossal Edition 1, establishing a very firm story arc. The rest of the collection poses the mystery of the Beast Titan, but it is not given as much focus as other things - namely, the mystery of the Walls, the in-pouring Titans who seem to have come from nowhere (there turns out to be no hole in the Wall), the true identities of Ymir and Krista, the true identities of Reiner and Bertolt.... Reiener, Ymir, Christa, and others are trapped in this tower at night. Now, Titans are not supposed to be able to move at night. They camped there because they were supposed to be safe. This is not the case. The battle sequence that followed ranks right up there with some of the best fantasy battles out there. It’s intense, it’s dangerous, and you don’t know who is going to make it out in one piece. It gives you the fear and worries that you want to come along with a battle. You don’t know who is going to make it out. You don’t know if any of them are going to make it out. You don’t know what is going on. After all, what is happening does not fit in with what we and the characters know about the world.

Humanity isn’t perfect and Isayama doesn’t try to pretend like it is. The way that he wrote the story and the characters a certain way really helped show that.

Armin Arlelt also uses this ability to wipe out most of, if not all of the Marleyan naval fleet present at the Raid on Liberio in a devastating explosion, sending a tremendous wave of energy inland and destroying the port entirely. [6] Immense Size [ ]I will say the one weaker point is Sasha's story. Not horrible but just okay. It feels slow but with purpose as to build her character. Same with Connie's storyline but there's SO much underlying moments with Connie's story that it all makes sense. After destroying the harbor, the Colossal Titan steps on all the ships to ensure that they have been completely destroyed. Armin then emerges from the Titan's nape and looks down at the carnage caused by the transformation, and flies up using his anti-personnel omni-directional mobility gear to a nearby Scout Regiment airship.

In the game Age of Gunslingers Online, a special Titan Mode was made as a tribute to the series. The final boss is heavily based upon the Colossal Titan and is fought atop a massive structure. A trailer of this mode can be viewed here. The way that this universe was created and organized with all the different military corps and battle strategies was super interesting to read about, so I’m excited for more of that to come.I've written at length for singular volumes of other manga series, yet I feel like I don't really want to write about five books at once, and so I guess this will be terribly brief for a review of mine.
