The story is pretty silly

also, by feels you mean feeling up something then I could agree

That's later on. In the first arc (through episode 5), it's normal feels.

Starting to feel (since a few episodes ago) that Attack on Titan is a train wreck waiting to happen.
It started decently, but there are some hindering elements now. Budget issues, bad pacing, the protagonist is passive (in fact he's my least favorite character now), and the new characters we have to deal with are extremely cartoonish as opposed to the minor characters we had in the start, who actually kinda felt like people.

I hate to be that guy, but at least with your last complaint, if that's your issue you'd be better off reading the manga. While it's still mentioned that they're weird people in the manga, the anime definitely seems to blow them out of proportion. I'm still lookin forward to the next arc, though.

Haven't given up on the anime yet. For all I know it can get back on track. Kobayashi is the one working on it, and her works in Kamen Rider and Super Sentai were my favorite.

I actually need to commend the latest episode, cause its summary only took about 20 seconds as opposed to some of the earlier episodes.

My beef with it is like... there's only 9 episodes left, and I don't really see an end in sight. Feels like it's just going to end up open ended.

90% chance it's going to just get to the end of the current arc and then end there. The only way you would get a concrete ending out of this is if they did a horrible AO ending, and I doubt they're gonna do that if they want any chance of ever doing season 2. It's also a much better arc than the "Eren tries out weightlifting" arc that just finished, imo.

you shouldn't have really expected a concrete ending anyway considering the manga's still ongoing, though. :P

Actually I'm enjoying the majority of this season, the only shows that have really let me down are Fate (this seems to be a recurring thing with Fate stuff for me) and Servant x Service, but everything else except for Kitakubu is pretty fun

Is anyone watching Free? Is it funny?

I don't necessarily want to start a crap-storm, since it seems like people are taking active offense to the studio doing the male fanservice thing, but I do wonder about it. It seems like sorta the same kind of humor Ouran had, and I liked Ouran.

I can see not liking the male fanservice (just like I can see people not liking female fanservice :V) but are people actually taking offense to it? Because that's kinda stupid if so.

that being said, I know nothing about the show other than its contents of glistening men, so I can't help you there. it's only got what, three eps out so far though? Just watch it and find out imo :P

Free is awesome, and only morons are complaining about the male fanservice, give it a watch.
