So, with the release of the second season of the anime getting closer (hopefully) I felt it would be neat to discuss it. What are your expectations? Which parts of the manga are you most excited to see adapted? What changes would you like to see being made in the anime? Would you like to see more OVAs being released?
My two cents on changes I'd like to see:
-Mike and Nanaba's death being acknowledged. I mean, they were among the soldiers who had stayed for the longest on the SL (not to mention that Mike was their second strongest soldier) and yet no one mentions them dying. WTF?
-Give Sasha and Connie more relevance, specially Sasha, whose characterization is only done via food-related jokes. I feel the part where Levi's new squad is formed and they're hiding in the cabin is a good opportunity to have more interactions among the characters.
-Make Mikasa have a different reaction to finding out she's related to Levi and to Grisha's death. I know she's not the most emotional type but I thought her being that stoic was a bit unrealistic.
-Improvement of the pacing in the uprising arch. I feel there are better ways to provide answers to the viewers other than via large info dumps.
-This is of course not unnecessary, but it would be cool if they extended the titan Grisha vs Frieda fight. Perhaps they could give a hint to what was the power she couldn't master that Rod mentioned.
-This isn't necessary either, but it would also be pretty neat if they gave us just a little more insight into Ymir's past.
Changes I would dislike:
-Eren's Berserk fire titan mode appears again.
-Reiner and Bertholdt are made out to be more villainous than their manga counterparts, just like the did with Annie.
-Replace the Hange scenes with Levi, just like they did in the Stohess operation.
-Tone down Hannes death (though I expect that will be inevitable).
-I don't know how to feel about Zackley's "art", perhaps it will have an impact later in the story but so far it just felt to me like cheap shock value.
After season 2 is finish, I imagine they might make an OVA adaptation of Wall Sina, Goodbye.
Of course I don't expect to get everything I want, but I wanted to know your opinions and discuss this while season 2 arrives
