SNK/Attack on Titan

(Anonymous) 2015-04-11 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
I mostly just want to get into it cuz there is a lot of slash fic and I need some new fic. Is it worth it?

No. Unless you like the idea of a man abusing or being cruel to a boy (Ereri)

Not really. The art is really terrible for the first several volumes, the plot became a mess rather quickly, they still haven't gotten to the fucking basement, and most of the characters are either annoying or bland as hell. But your mileage may vary on that.

It would probably just be easier to read the fic since most are AU anyway.

SA

Or just go with the anime. The anime fixes up the art and it has pretty nice music.

Yeah seriously, I stopped reading when I realized the author might just be throwing shit out to see what sticks. That or he planned this plot from the beginning, which is actually WORSE.

The show might be worth it (I think it's fun) but the fandom and fic most definitely aren't. But even if you do read the fic, you barely even need to watch the show/read the manga because most people tend to write really shitty and OOC modern day AUs anyway that don't really have anything to do with canon

The manga was okay for a while, but over the past year or so has descended into convoluted, repetitive political 'drama' that is going nowhere but around in circles.

The fandom is a batshit cesspool of toxic idiots, and about 90% of the fics are college/coffee shop/trans AUs (sometimes all three in one fic).

I suppose it depends on whether crazies and 'edgy' fanfic is your thing.

Don't forget the insight into the author's various fetishes. Wonder what is next.

I think it's worth it nonny. It's a pretty big fandom, so while there is proportionately a lot of AUs and crapfics, it has a lot of gems and decent stuff. People complain about the art, but I never had a problem with it (it has kind of a messy look to it) and in its defense, it's one of the few anime/manga where there's a lot of variety in the characters noses.

It has a lot of good characters.

The fandom has its toxic batshit fans, but honestly? Pretty much any fandom that was born onto Tumblr as the main fandom place as opposed to forums or LJ/DW is going to have a fair share. It's not hard to avoid the wank and the drama. eta: unless you're an Ereri shipper, in which case your ship tags are going to be spammed with furry porn by a butthurt kinkshaming 15-year old. If you're just looking for fic though, Ao3 has it so the tags aren't that relevant.

It has one of the best kinkmemes I've seen.

Eh. It started out very strong, but it sort of used up all its momentum at once and it's been meandering ever downward for a long time now. The fic's not that great, and neither are the ships-- the juggernaut is Levi/Eren, but Eren/Armin is big too, and the stans for both of them are insane. (Armin stans in general are fucking insufferable.) Levi/Erwin is decently popular, and I've seen some good fic for that, at least?

I mean, like with any fandom, you've got the jokes that have been beaten to death about thirty times (lol horse-face Jean!), the coffeeshop AUs, the out-of-place SJW wank...but if you don't mind all that, I suppose there are worse things you could get into. I actually suggest just watching the anime, though I'm sure I'd be murdered for saying so. There's a lot less nonsense to slog through, and it looks about a million times better.
