Why does this anime get so much hate?
>>159070185
It's popular.

Because it's the biggest anime of the past decade, and a lot of people genuinely like it, so a vocal minority actively hates it.
>>159070270
Is it any good though?
Neo-/a/ love it.
>>159070288
Yeah it's pretty great, really original too which is rare for modern anime.
>>159070214
This. People think it attracts too many normies (which it does) but that doesn't necessarily make it a bad series.

>normies
Fuck off normalfag.

It was super popular in 2014 like it bought in a bunch of newfags from tumblr and reddit. I didnt really enjoy it until I watched the second season then rewatched the first

Probably the kind of production and direction it got. It's good to compare this anime with a Hollywood blockbuster, amazingly appealing for the masses but OK at best for people with more than half of a brain.

S2 is good, S1 is shit.
because it's boring and it's made for teenage girls
>>159070185
Too popular. And then too much "best anime I have ever seen" (from people who barely start watching anime).
>>159070214
Pretty much. But it's not necessarily popularity alone, but the fact that casuals constantly hail it as one of the best anime series ever made.
All in all, it's an okay show with some cool concepts and action. I've gotten pretty sick of the plot since it basically amounts to piling up a bunch of mysteries while refusing to answer more than one for every two that get added. And most of the answers end up being pretty unsatisfying. There aren't any other shows I've seen that have such a complete lack of payoff.
>>159070185
It is cliche and stole the wall and monsters concept. Later story became shit and it shows that author can't write a story. It become popular thanks to girls and people who are under 18 years old.

I actually liked S1 but the pacing was kinda fucked up here and there.
>>159070214
This.
/a/ hates popular anime more news at 11.
>>159074810
Agreed. Not sure which I like better since S1 at least had more episodes. Since S2 only had half the episodes it felt even more annoying when almost every other episode was shit.

>>159070185
Because it's awful.

Are you talking about the anime or the manga?
I'd argue that there aren't many series that actually have as satisfying answers to the many mysteries. Granted, it did take a long fucking time to get some answers.
>>159070185
Shingeki no sales
>>159076346
Should have specified that I've only watched the anime. Though from what I've heard about the manga, I'm not expecting a lot of satisfaction.
>>159074750
It's the least cliche big show there is.
