ruined the women's character designs trying to make them more attractive.

You mean make them noticeably different characters? Seriously, the art in the manga sucks.

All your other points I've seen before and are valid enough, even though I disagree. I think what the anime added and left out made the series better (although the pacing is still awful.)

[(Anonymous)]

Did they need to add lipstick to make them more noticeably? Those characters are soldiers fighting against gian monsters, for god's sake. I'm sure that the last thing on their minds is wearing makeup.

[(Anonymous)]

It's an anime, anon--they added color. Lipstick happened to be included in the cases of Mikasa, Annie, and Ymir. Christa, Sasha, Hanji, and Nanaba don't have any, and funny thing, Hanji and Nanaba were originally thought to be men by a large part of fandom. Bet that wouldn't have happened if they'd been wearing lipstick.

[(Anonymous)]

Please, don't try to pretend that they only added the lipstick because lips are pink in real life (men and women's, by the way, not only women's) and not because they were trying to make the girls prettier for pandering reasons.

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT

Except I said lipstick in my comment? Some of the female characters have lipstick because surprise, some women like lipstick and some animators like to draw women with lipstick. I don't really care why they added it, but I don't think you've seen much anime if you think lipstick is pandering. Come back when there are upskirt panty shots all over the place.

[(Anonymous)]

The point is that they are wearing it during their mission. It makes no sense. Anyways, I suppose we haven't read the same story if you think that Mikasa would wear makeup.

And yes, making the characters more conventionally attractive is pandering to straight male viewers. There's more pandering than the sexual one. Watch some fujoshi shows and then you will learn that even two characters looking at each other can be pandering. Are you one of those people who honestly believe that it's npt fanservice unless it's sexual?

[(Anonymous)]

Actually, I'm one of those people who doesn't believe make-up is fanservice. But you know what? Fine. The lipstick is an assault on their characters, and the animators should be ashamed of themselves. Happy?

[(Anonymous)]

Yes. But you have to understand that most people bothered by the lipstick is because the females in SnK have the same treatment by the author than the male characters, for a lot of us that's very empowering and refreshing. The lipstick kinda ruined it. It's not a baseless complain.

[(Anonymous)]

I'd say the complaint was more valid if all the main women had gotten lipstick, but only three did. Five didn't, including Christa, Sasha, and Hanji, who are recurring and important characters if not actual mains. I just don't really get it.

[(Anonymous)]

It's fanservice if the situation is weird for them to wear makeup. Why would they be wearing lipstick in the military?

[crunchysunrises]

They sell makeup on military bases IRL.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm talking about Shingeki though...

[crunchysunrises]

You didn't say 'in Shingeki'. You said 'in the military.' Therefore, it's not incorrect to take your words at face value.

But regardless, I stand by my statement. They'd have makeup if they wanted to wear it.
