| ITT op sees vague similarities to his favorite animu and has to pay worship to it by claiming that it all stemmed from SnK. It's like you don't realize entertainment, history, and technology has always influenced each other. Learn the differences between actual plagiarism and influence. |

| It actually hurts to read this thread. |
| Terra Formars a rip - off of SnK? I didn't really like the first episode of Terra Formars, but even I can see it wasn't anything near a rip - off. |

| Is SnK a rip off of Shadow of the Colossus? |

Or you could just normally tell and explain to a person instead of putting such repulsive attitude. If you had time to write something in this thread, you might as well explain it to the person. I am takling about some of you here. |

| OP is a dumb nut |
| If there is something I would compare Terra Formars to, it would be Gantz and not Attack on Titan. ROFL. |
| What the heck, another muv luv? Get me outta here. This thread is a ripoff of Attack on Titan, but OP doesn't have walls to protect himself. Terra Formars sold relatively well long before it was adapted into an Anime. I'm sure stories similar to Terra Formars are relevant, but to even suggest plagiarism? |

| When you get down to it Titans are just giant wang-less zombies. |
| I think Terra Formars is a prequel to Mars of Destruction. You read it here first. |
 |
| Retard |
 |
| People who've read the manga have said no and yet you still insist on it. You're embarrassing. |
| I think black bullet was an Attack on Titan ripoff too |
 |
| The only comparison I can find in Terra Formars and AoT is kinda similar artwork. ut even this is not that similar. |
 |
| Oh boy i knew this thread was coming, was not disappointed |

Reading the manga, I did get AoT feels but never would I say it's a rip-off. |

| I dont think its comparable to AoT because AoT has less black screens. |
Red_Keys said: Does anybody else think that Guilty Crown is a rip-off of Code Geass?? No it's quite the opposite. OT: Yeah. because SnK was so original in the first place. |

I don't know I might be noob in anime, but I wouldn't call SnK and Terra Formars setting unoriginal. They aren't something ground breaking, never seen before, but still they aren't that unoriginal. I mean wtf is with the amount of school anime. |

| Man, this thread has kept going for days. Obviously hit a sore spot with a lot of people. Just want to say I bothered to watch most of the first ep (before dropping out of boredom) and that I will agree with all of you that it isn't very similar to SnK/AoT. So we can end this thread with me, the OP, agreeing that it's not. What misled me to thinking so was that trailer put out by Warner Brothers where the music, themes, bunch of naked muscular-males swarming around a protected encampment, kind of strange glare to the environment-drawing style, what the guy is saying in japanese, and other things in that trailer were made in a way that made me inevitably draw comparisons to something that all of you who read the manga knew were not true. It may have just been a desperate attempt by Warner Brothers to try and evoke the same emotions/themes and drew the inevitable comparison. And it didn't help that skimmed through the OVA and saw the black-haired girl who the main guy liked which had a childhood trauma the main guy saved her from or whatever (another SnK thing). My apologies for anyone whose emotions got inflamed by those. This is the first time I've ever asked if an anime was a rip-off (and I've watched thousands of hours worth) because it was the first time I saw, misleadingly, many glaring similarities. Really if you just watch that trailer by Warner Brothers it just has that feeling they were going for the same SnK audience obviously, and that's a smart economic decision anyways since this is their first time doing a full 24-minute anime cour with Lidenfilms (mostly does 4 minute eps like Senyuu). Anyways, but once you watch the actual episodes any similarities quickly disappear into a very boring haze. The manga people here had just already known ahead of time of how dissimilar it was, so that slanted how they would feel when viewing the trailer (if they did at all, many here probably didn't and just commented based on their manga knowledge). |
| I'm going to try and address each of these without blowing my head off because of the stupidity: 1. Enemy monsters are humanoid. 2. Enemy monsters are ugly. 3. Enemy monsters are male-looking mostly. 4. Enemy monsters are generally buff. 5. Enemy monsters (at least in the trailer) don't seem to speak (but I heard they do) 6. Enemy humanoid monsters trying to eat humans. Shit, enemies trying to eat main characters? Never heard of that before. Totally. Yep. AoT is so original for coming up with that. Monsters are ugly? Haha, what the fuck? Are you serious? When are monsters/enemies ever good looking? Hmm? Most of the things I've seen, the antagonists are ugly as fuck unless they are human. 7. The number of the enemy is seemingly endless. It's called dramatic effect, honey. 8. The humans "expedition party" that explores gets mostly wiped out Not even going to address this. 9. A new type of human weapon is unveiled to defeat the enemy. If you have a weapon that doesn't work against the enemy, it's common sense to try and come up with something new, right? Or is humanity supposed to be super stupid and not use their brains? 10. Most of the main characters have non-japanese names. Just by looking at the cast, most of them are non-Japanese looking! 'Non-Japanese have Non-Japanese names'. HOLY SHIT, WHO WOULD OF THOUGHT? I thought every single character in anime has to have a Japanese name because logic! (Sarcasm) 11. The origin of the enemy is shrouded and is science-based not magic. When are enemies origins not shrouded in mystery? Huh? 12. The drawing style seems purposefully similar. Oh sweet Lord Sithis, are you serious? It looks more similar to Gantz than anything! 13. Both have a black haired female love-interest who had a traumatic childhood experience and were saved by the male partner. Oh my god. Stop. You're grasping for straws here. Seriously? Seriously? 14. They are actively using many AoT voice actors such as the ones who play Reiner Braun, Zoë Hanji, Farlan Church, and Marlo from AoT are also voice acting in Terra Formars. That's like saying 'Oh, you have Hiroshi Kamiya as a VA? You're copying off of Levi!' Totally excluding Izaya, Gareki, and hundreds of other characters who had his voice before Levi. Zoe's VA is one of the more popular VA's so just do us a favor, and stop with this stupid shit. Nezumi from No.6 has the same VA as Reiner, does that make No.6 a rip-off of AoT? No. If anything, No.6 is executed better. Much better. You didn't even watch it before claiming similarities?! WHAT THE HELL? You should delete this thread because this is solely showing your stupidity if you didn't watch it, yet claimed it was an AoT rip-off. |

| Gantz has been mentioned already, but it feels like a spiritual copy of Gantz that manages to have even less plot. I've read the manga up through Chapter 50 before accepting that whatever story is there is really just an excuse to draw extremely gory deaths for characters (some you may like and some you know nothing about) and designed by someone who got an Entomology degree from college and never found a good use for it. All of that might even be forgivable for an anime that has cool battle scenes, but this is just clearly blu-ray bait. It's like we're getting the shareware version and if we want to see it without being taken out of the experience via half-to-whole black screens, we need to shell out money for the discs. |
| Guys, guys, I already conceded. See my last post. I watched an episode and it removed any similarities the trailer had fooled into my mind. Wish there was a way I could close the thread. My apologies for crossing the red line I didn't know existed from saying "similar" to "rip-off" is apparently a very tremendous difference within the MAL community... and I only read mangas of animes that are discontinued so there is no way I knew how wrong I was. I blame the Warner Brothers trailer for causing all this mayhem! Apologies! Shazai-suru! |
Jakerams said: reactionary said: Wasn't Attack on Titans a rip off (claimed to be inspired by) of Muv Luv Alternative visual novel?Is it just me? After watching the trailer, aside from the fact they threw in "space" and that it's a "different planet" it's really all the same but even that last bit only makes it closer to AoT since it'll still likely have the "mystery of the rest of the world/undiscovered world" thing that Attack on Titans' does. Everything from the drawing style, tall, muscular, odd-humanoid beings trying to eat them, and main characters transforming in order to beat them, it all rings of a desperate attempt (by Warner Brothers) to try and cash in on what they see as a sure thing (not understanding that the soul of the anime is what makes it work and you can't just replicate that by throwing money at an animation studio and saying "make something like Attack on Titans!"). That's true, snk did got inspiration from the muv luv series, but to be exact it was from the game and not the visual novel. Any ways. we can practically call every series a rip off of something, because most anime got inspiration from another. The same can be said for any entertainment medium. |
| Lies. Snk ripped off Formars. |

Ya pretty much as claimed and ignored a few times in this thread. I find it really funny how all these people who rate Attack on Titan a 10 and call it a completely original anime don't realize it was a huge copy of Muv Luv Alternative. Ya he claimed it was just inspired by(The world is a tad more than just inspired by) |
rothrock said: Lie. Snk ripped off Formars. LOL |
| Hmm you could say that. Though the only similitude would be humans fighting to survive againts some kind of monsters. Oh, and i felt like watching SnK at the opening in the second episode. |
KronokInF said: I'm still laughing every time I click on this thread. It's clear as bright day light, people hasn't seen enough to anime to make such bullshit claim that this show is similar to AoT. AoT = Baby gore. Shonen's gore isn't shit compare to Seinen. Go read Gantz and respond back, lets see which is familiar. LMAO! The op wasn't even talking about the gore being similar to attack on titan, so you completely miss the point. read op post carefully before posting bullshit. You also sound like those people that think that a lot of gore = to a great series or mature series. |
keragammingOct 4, 2014 7:00 PM
| I would say the concept and build up of the series is similar to AoT, but it is similar to it in a good way. I do think that animators have used AoT as some kind of reference but in my mind this isnt annoying at all. So instead of "this series is bad and that series is good" is more like "this series is good and that series is good also", at least so far. Like yay we have 2 promising series.. O: Why is everyone so negative? So far quite nice. And i dont mind censorship so .. whatever. I deeply hate cockroaches though. Just wondering how i will survive that. |
