So, I ran across this series and watched the first two episodes. I also watched some clips on Youtube.
Maybe it's because I'm not a big anime watcher, but I just don't get the excitement people have on this series. Why do people like this series and why is it interesting?
It didn't make much sense to me to tell the truth and almost felt like it came from a disturbed mind in some ways. The concept (sort of like a cannabilistic thing) also seemed rather...out there.
What am I missing about this series that makes it's fans all go crazy with enthusiasm for it?

Truthfully, at least in my case, it's because the series is, by and large pretty unique. Yes, there are a lot of elements that can be found elsewhere, but there are a few things about it that you don't get in a lot of other anime series. It isn't great by any stretch of the imagination, but it is sitting firmly in the 'good' category for me.
Also, it leaves a lot of questions unanswered as a way to draw people in. A lot of viewers watch it and are left wondering, hoping that in the next episode, or next season that they'll explain things. Where did the Titans ACTUALLY come from? Are they just brainless killing and eating machines or is there some driving force that is controlling them? Things like that. I suppose THAT is the appeal. It is for me. I've watched the entire series and have to admit that it's one of the better anime series I've seen in a while.It boils down to taste, really. As far as the series goes, your mileage may vary, but suggest sitting down and watching the entire first season. It's a worthwhile watch.
