Free and Shingeki are like complete opposites. One is for male fanservice, the other a Shōnen-like fantasy. Can you be a little more specific?
Lol, just finshed watching sword art online. would reccomend it to everyone lol ;D
Its okay until episode 14 o.-Quote:

i'll try it out
It's hard finding something like SnK to be honest.
It rips the boundaries of what modern anime has become and basically makes that stand that "We can still make a show that isn't fanservice, mary-sue protag, moe-shit or harem-shit and make it popular." (I apologize in advance to those who like harem or moe anime, just the best descriptions that came to mind).
While the anime isn't perfect (what manga/anime IS?), it still has its refining values to keep it a good series in check. The protagonist isn't the overpowered mary-sue. Treats all genders equally (Mikasa and Annie prime examples). NOT ONE CHARACTER IS PERFECT; what I mean by this is the fact people die no matter how skilled they are. Won't spoil the manga so I'll just leave it at that.
Who knows though, maybe I'm just a suck who enjoys a human survival anime that, for once, doesn't involve god damn zombies or aliens (inb4titans are aliens hurr durr).
Anyways, back OT; there really isn't anything that you can call "close" to SnK by what it is. Only thing you can really find is a similar genre and go from there.
I think fanservice used as a addon is perfectly fine (Code Geass for example). It only causes problems when it gets in the way of the plot.Quote:

I do see what you mean. I mean, there honestly isn't much out there that is 90-100% fanservice (exceptions to HoTD... I don't care what anyone says everything that was fanservice was extremely unnecessary and ended up me beginning to dislike it).Quote:

I don't know about them, but my tumblr dashboard was never filled with people glorifying any of those whereas ANY tag I search that has a related fandom seems to have 20 times more yaoi than general "bewbs" and such. Anyways I better stray away from this; getting a bit off topic.
Free is an anime directed to young teen female audiences (fanservice for them. Still doesn't shut them the **** up though). Shingeki no Kyojin is more young adult to mature adult and I highly recommend.Quote:

These walls prevent any titans from entering as they cannot climb over nor destroy the walls. From here, I won't spoil anything, so I'll just say shit happens and if you want more, I recommend watching it. It has a grave dark tone to the series and basically nothing ever good happens plot-wise.
