Critique anyone?

I'm working on a serious amv that's taking months... So I took a break today and just made a quick amv. Tell me if you guys like it? I mean after all, only took a day xD

I like it a lot! I'm going to check out the anime now. If this took you a day, I can only imagine how good your SERIOUS AMV is.

[Sephirothskr]

Haha Thank you! I know you'll love the show. It's just... great.

Dude, you have no idea. I'm on the 7th or so ep of the anime and the 13th issue of the manga. I have a new member of my top 10 or 20 shounen series. ^_^

While it's not as deep as some (Naruto, One Piece) the action is phenomenal and the characters are compelling. Ya gotta love that opening title sequence too!

[Sephirothskr]

Haha yeah I don't read the manga.. I love the anime too much.

The manga is actually pretty awesome. The anime isn't really that different. They added some stuff to the anime to flesh out the characters and they took out a bunch of the gore (which only serves to make the manga cooler by comparison because you get the full impact of how horrific their situation is). But most of what's added in the anime isn't really added to the main char., but rather the supporting char. storylines. They changed the dialogue for the anime a little bit here and there (hard to tell because of different translators but you can sort of see the meaning in each translation pointing to differing dialogue in the 2 different raw media).

I'd say at this point, I don't see either one being better or worse than the other, just slightly different in small details. Dunno if that'll change, as I'm only on ep 10 of the anime and still issue 14 of the manga. The fact that each manga issue is around 35-45 pages makes it slower going than say, Naruto or One Piece, which I also read.

Yeah.. I just can't read it. My reading is dedicated to soul eater and Naruto.

I understand a lack of time. However, here is a perfect example of why the manga can be better than the anime:

If you read the next few pages and then watch the scene in the anime, you'll notice that they really sort of gloss over anything meaningful that came from Eren's question.
