The point is that we already know about those things though? Even if they weren't explicitly spelled out, the connections were very easy to figure out. To me the chapter was pretty much guys talking about shit I already know and Eren not shutting up.

Boy with mysterious past off to save the world, acquires companions, battles baddies all in order to achieve a long-term goal. All that is pretty damn shounen. Throw in some video game aspects (acquiring loot, clearing levels, minigames with arcane rules), write a wiki's worth of backstory, and constantly generate new characters that you'll ignore in a few chapters when the next batch of new characters come out. It's a marriage of the shonen sensibility with the webtoon format's tendency towards bloat.
Bleh cg art do not like.

Reiner's memories are fake? Seems like a pretty dumb development.

This is the manga thread where people can talk about whatever manga they want. Much like the anime thread where people talk about anime that have OT's all the time.

You know, the similarities between the Titans and the Yoma from Clyamore are pretty striking. Both of them eat humans, originate from transformed humans, are controlled by a shadowy organization, and come from across the sea.
"You guys are hating ____ just to hate on it!" is your new catchphrase.

Ok what other series does this? And why is this a negative factor? I think it's fantastic. When something in the series happens like an important character appears it's within context. It doesn't require further explanation from the characters.
I don't think most webtoons are bloated at all. Most tend to tell simple stories anyhow. Give me some examples. How is it a save the world story? That's just how you're interpreting it.

i stopped reading after it went on hiatus so where should i start reading?
The only hiatus I remember was before the last 3 chapters so ch208 is where you should start. If there was a hiatus before that then I have no idea.

Between E3 and a VN marathon all throughout next week (I have it off~), I'm not even sure I'll be mentally stable to post here. At the very least I'll try to avoid... trying too hard
It's gonna be great.
Waaaait wait wait wait wait, you're not...... ..... B/W color blind, are you? Just hues/saturations like me, right? Am I misunderstanding something here?
No but my color vision is more severe then simple red/green color blind. All those test to indicate your color blindness always tell me I completely failed :/ I can see colors but its just wrong, any two colors that are remotely close like brown/red/orange or green/yellow/tan or blue/purple/teal just throw me off.

Really hilarious chapter for the two brothers, if only the beginning sequence wasnt just a dream but had actually happened, maybe eventually. Ending kiss was great but the reveal
hopefully he reconsiders the move out deal.

Its just dumb characters fulfilling their roles for exposition dumps and you got world mythology that is the equivalent of FF13 datalog then its just not interesting to read. Even the battles are boring and visually lacking. Also the setup of the story just screams I'm gonna milk this shit if it ever gets popular.

A triple (quadruple?) prank! I did not see those twists coming.
There'll be more eventually; give it time.

Kind of hard to commentate on these chapters daily when I know Upandaway has already read them. I'm enjoying the read though.
Yeah, but I didn't have a total breakdown about it.

The pace is quickening so that's good. Hope the conflict in the finals is interesting, since its already known that they'll win the match.

Nobody pretends that rage town is the freshest shonen on the block either. People really like their tower defense manga.
They also both have shit art and horrible personalities for their main dudes so I can't tell apart the characters. Claymore is approaching Garfield levels of stagnancy, though.

So because people like something you don't you try to kick discussion of it out of the thread?

I was talking about the stuff Erigu was talking about about. Not to mention the fact that Ymir knows who the actual boss is, the manner in which Reiner could be the same guy AND the Armored Titan was explained and Eren acted as rationally as could be expected. I don't get how this is the worst chapter of all time without some heavy, heavy exaggeration.
Randomly declaring a chapter of a popular manga sucks is the MangaGAF equivalent of starting a fight with the biggest dude on the first day of a prison sentence to avoid becoming someone's bitch.

It's not really a question of whether you like or dislike the manga or whether the manga is good or bad. I actually don't like the separate thread for Shingeki manga because there is bound to be someone there who won't come over here and ask about it and maybe explore other manga, maybe even manga you think are 'good'.
It's not as if slicing Shingeki discussion away from here will change the fact that Jojo and 7Seeds only release monthly and therefore most of the time everyone in here will be discussing manga that you think are all garbage.
It's great that you're still here despite all that, because it means you probably still believe that someday you'll find a manga to enjoy again, but until then put up with all the shounen fightan and moe-smut nonsense? Chill out, have a beer.

There's also a bunch of specific anime OTs, but people still post their episode impressions of said show in the seasonal threads. This is a mega thread, just like that, and people can choose to post about anything in here or in the specific OT.

I thought there was a manga thread for attack on titan too, odd to give it four places of discussion...
Damn, why did I miss it. Poor guy, maybe Lamnia will get one of those demon marks too, a lo like is needed to beat another one.
there's no link in the quote
Just following the example set by the other likely even more famous mangaka Tezuka Osamu. That's what I remember from a book about him maybe I've got it all wrong too.
Well, that's one mystery solved.
