nah it's pretty much at the most recent chapters, but the female titan is sort of a catalyst to one of the problems. Though even by then the cracks start to appear as the series shows each chapter or arc is more interested in asking more questions than were answered.

I actually resisted reading the manga since I felt the anime would show the scenes much better...

It's the difference between the original artist's work and intention and the artist's intention filtered through a production team, animation team, and a network.

I think the part where I described the anime as a "piss poor imitation" should probably have indicated that you should read through the manga.

I did like the opening title sequence/song: "REH REH REH REH REEEH! REH REH REH JEAGAR!!! *Bombastic orchestral nonsense*"

But yeah, all in all, I prefered the manga as well.

the op was the only good thing, and that was mostly because of all the videos it spawned showing that the song is pretty much a perfect OP song
