The anime also ruined Jean's character (made him angry, jealous, and petty, when he was just awesome and sweet in the manga).
And let's not forget all the pointless, ridiculous, aggrandizing scenes they gave to Levi, just because his character is so popular.
It's all the little things like that in the anime that added up, and made it far less enjoyable than the manga

Also, maybe you should warn for spoilers about the second point?

People like you are why I now refuse to read the manga when I was planning to do so at one time. Christ.

I completely agree, anon. Let's be anime-only fans together!

Um, ok?

So mature.

Lol damn. The manga is exactly like the anime except it has better pacing, better characterization (not different characterization- they're the same characters), and the plot makes more sense. Why wouldn't you want to read it?

There are going to be people you don't like in every fandom. If you let them stop you from enjoying things you'll never be able to get into anything.

I will hate them forever for adding the unnecesary Levi scenes. In the manga it was beautiful, SPOILERS his team had died and he couldn't avenge them because of his injury, and he was so frustrated and powerless. And then in the anime who cares about his injury, let's add him using the 3DMG! See people, more Levi scenes!!

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, exactly. I liked the anime too (honestly not trying to offend the anime fans here), but it's things like that towards the end that just ruined the anime for me.
Or the scene SPOLIER where one of the men in Hanji's squad attacks Annie's crystal, because (presumably) his teammates were killed during the FT expedition, and Hanji has to hold him back - but in the anime they just have Jean start hitting it, and Levi has to hold him back.. it just filled in popular characters for a scene which originally was so sad (well, for me anyways)

I'd say that's better storytelling, actually. Important scenes should be given to named characters rather than random nobodies. I don't see the point in replacing Hanji with Levi though, except for the obvious popularity points (which is a perfectly fine reason.)

[(Anonymous)]

To me, the original scene was more powerful because it subtly showed how emotionally/physically devastating the FT expedition was on the Survey Corps. It also didn't make sense for Jean to do it, because he's not a person that spontaneously acts on his emotions.

[(Anonymous)]

mte. I didn't mind that it was Jean, but that part was Hanji's turn not Levi's. He was injured anyway and she was responsible with capturing The Female Titan.

That's really the only part of the anime vs. manga I take issue with.

[(Anonymous)]

Worldbuilding, setting of tone, communication of emotion.

If you can't understand the importance of these things in storytelling, I don't know how you can like anything.

[(Anonymous)]

In the anime, he was injured after going after the female titan. Did it happen differently in the manga? Because he only used 3DMG once after that, in the final episode, and he was noticeably powerless in episode 22, when other people were in danger.

[(Anonymous)]

In the anime they had Levi injured by the female titan. But right after that he was using his 3DMG to attack the female titan again. :/

[(Anonymous)]

That's not right. He grabs Eren and escapes immediately after being injured. Unless you're referring to him cutting open the FT's mouth, but I'd hardly call that attacking when she was already down and out.

[(Anonymous)]

He's still twirling around in his gear though. Technically he couldn't do that if his leg was injured

[(Anonymous)]

He does the same thing in the manga.

[(Anonymous)]

He wasn't in that scene in the manga

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, Jean is still angry and jealous in the manga too if you've read the most recent chapter he's just like he was in training days. The only thing the anime did to him different was make him obsess over Marco way more than he ever did in the manga.

Although I agree that Levi was pushed in where he was NOT supposed to be there at all just to make him look cool or something.

[(Anonymous)]

f you've read the most recent chapter he's just like he was in training days
How so? I personally think his character has grown a lot, and is turning into the 'leader' that Marco saw in him.
It's true that Jean is still pretty jealous of Eren over his relationship with Mikasa, but they really played it up in the anime. For example, the scene in the last episode, where Jean is fuming in his jealousy over Mikasa's concern over Eren, after they captured Annie - that didn't happen in the manga. In the manga, he was only supportive of EMA during the time that Eren was recovering.
And even though he's arrogant, and easily irritated, and what not, he's not 'angry'. He's the type to think with caution before he acts. (Actually one of the few times he's acted impulsively was rescuing Mikasa from the titan)
