The movie is a REACAP of the whole show up to the last episode of s3pt2.I repeat,it’s a recap meant to refresh the important events of the story. This movie’s goal wasn’t to present AoT in a different way rather it was to convey what already happened in a summarised way and it did good in that aspect. So,if you are a fan waiting for s4 and have problem remembering some key moments of the story, this movie is for you. Again, I repeat,the purpose of this movie wasn’t meant for enjoyment. Therefore,Only watch if you wanna remember the key points of the story upto s3pt2

People are COMPLETELY missing the point of this. THIS IS A RECAP. THIS IS NOT A FILM TO WATCH IF YOU HAVE NEVER WATCHED ATTACK ON TITAN BEFORE. THIS IS PURELY A RECAP OF SEASONS 1, 2, AND 3 TO REFRESH YOUR MEMORY WHILE WAITING FOR SEASON 4. I don't even know why this has to be said. Is it not obvious that this is a RECAP? This isn't a movie that condenses AoT into a watchable medium of 2 hours for new viewers to watch. This is purely a RECAP for people who need to refresh their memories, while we wait for Season 4. You don't have towatch this if you don't want to. If you already remember the story well, you don't need to use up your time on this. However, if you have hazy memories of the story and want to refresh your memory, by all means go ahead and watch this.

I encourage you, please don't waste your time to watch this. You'd think that condensing 22 hours of anime into a 2 hour movie would be a bad idea, and it is. This movie is such a clusterfuck. The movie starts with a quick 20 second narration that tells us that humanity is behind walls because massive titans lurk outside. Then immediately the wall is smashed and Eren's mother dies 2 minutes in. Eren then says he'll kill every titan, followed by a shot of him as a fully trained soldier 5 years later. The colossal titan immediately appears again and destroys the wall. Weare at minute 4. Eren and a bunch of unnamed soldiers go to fight the titans but then get gruesomely killed. Why should we care about these people? We then get Armins character introduction, with him immediately swallowed by a titan. Eren then sacrifices himself to save this character we have seen for 20 seconds. As you can see, the main problem of this movie is that it gives you absolutely no time to make sense of anything. Things fly past you at such an amazing speed that you can't keep up at all. Not to mention most character development was completely gutted to try and fit the entire story into 2 hours. Hannes is shown twice before his death. Reiner is shown twice before his betrayal and Bertholt once. I don't even think Annie did anything before she became the Female Titan. Importance is lost because of how little the movie makes us care for the characters. And even as a recap this sucks pretty bad. You want to see some of the best fights from the show? All cut out except for Levi vs Beast Titan. The basement flashback scene takes about a minute and a half. The entire first half of season 2 is condensed into a single minute. Lot's of plot holes form as a result of condensing and may not be recognized by people who haven't watched the series in a while. The audio and visuals are the same as in the anime, but the way they edited everything was extremely piss poor. To sum everything up, do not watch this. There is no reason for anyone who has or hasn't watched the series to watch this. What really should have been made were 2 recap movies of the 3rd season. This movie just goes to show what condensing can do. This feels very similar to the Unlimited Bladeworks Movie, but even worse because of how much was actually cut and because of the terrible directing and editing.

I watched this because I am an AOT fan, so thinking i might get some new instights from the movie, i started it. Afterwards, I though that it wasn't really a good idea to spend my time on this. This move might be a recap, okay. This movie is fast paced, okay But, this movie doesn't know when and where to put timelapses for a damn single time. The song is all liked for a change. I did like barricades. It is a commendable song, if seen with a relations with the movie itself. As for the story, art and characters, i would have likedif it was even a little bit different from the series.

(Quick Review) This just a recap of the first three seasons of AOT which really good, the two hours told key points of all three seasons which is really good if you need a refresh on AOT to watch season 4. The story is, of course, is same just within told in 2 hours. Art, sound, characters are all the same and the recap is showing the key points and some best moments in the anime. This is a great recap telling everything you need to know and because of that it's not a film unless you want to get spoiled for some reason

You have to be pretty daft to think that this is in any way a good way to watch this movie for the plot. From the get go YOU should know that this is a simple recap in preparation for Season 4. For all those people who say "just watch the series over again" most people don't actually have the luxury of rewatching 20 hours of content in time for the new season. I REPEAT, this is a recap movie so that you can watch a quick montage of the series to remind you what happened and it is nothing more, don't expect itto be

For a behemoth series such as Attack on Titans, what started as just another seasonal adrenaline rush and is currently on the verge of becoming a modern classic, the recalling of events is a must in order to fully grasp the complex story it tells. A huge political and emotional crash that raises the bar on each arc, so much has happened in the three seasons already, and the fourth and the last is just around the corner, any anybody wanted to watch up, there is no better time than now. This 2 hours long screening recalls the past events, recapping what it can fit inthe time frame from all three seasons which highlights perfectly the tension and the tone change that the series has gone through perfectly. They could have cramped more into it, but as it stands, definitely the best recap movie in the entire series. And there have been several average ones.

ATTACK ON TITAN CHRONICLE!!!! I'm gonna be real, this ain't half bad, considering the fact that 59 episodes are crammed into 2 hours for a film. Obviously, if you haven't seen attack on titan before watching this recap film, DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM. This film only shows minimal spurts of the most significant events from the first three seasons. You are not going to get the full AOT experience if you just watch this film instead of watching the first three seasons. This film does serve as a good refresher, especially for those who barely remember the events of season 1 as it airedquite a while ago. Perfect for if you need some memory refresher before watching the new final season currently airing. That being said, Attack on Titan is epic, great anime, and if you want some epicness then this film is worth it.

As many others have pointed out, condensing 22 hours total of anime episodes into a two hour long film is impossible, full stop. I, however, don't think that's what they're really aiming to do with this, since it IS a recap, after all. It highlights the most important moments that, if you have forgotten some, you can catch up on in merely two hours. Which is fine. Definitely. Absolutely not. It highlighted things, yes, but it all went by so fast that if you blinked you could've easily missed a key point. Good thing you can rewind, huh? Yeah, well, that still won't fill inthe gaps. There are so many holes in this thing they should slap a "Swiss cheese" label on it. It all depends on what mindset one goes into this film with, really. At first I admit I was expecting something else, but after finishing it and readjusting my perspective, it's not all that bad. Except, again, they DID try to cram the story of 22 hours into a measly two, which means things in this film happen so fast you barely get a grasp of what's actually happened whether you forgot or not. If you did, I'd argue that's even worse, because that just means you still have to go back and re-watch parts of the series because this film doesn't delve into detail, at all. Because there's no time for that, or it would've been a lot longer. ... In conclusion, these recap films become more and more difficult to watch because a lot more has happened since the last one. And they always have to start from the very beginning, then compiling everything that's happened since. Which is a weird and honestly terrible idea. If you wanted a summary at this point without having watched a single episode until now... I'd still tell you to watch it all from episode one. Don't waste your time with these films. Don't.

I was just about to begin the new (and final) season of Shingeki no Kyojin, when a realisation struck me - I had forgotten much of what was going on in the series. Then I remembered I planned on watching a recap movie to get myself back on track. So I stopped the first episode within the first minute and went on to watch this movie. It's not bad for a recap of 3 seasons. Things go by at a rapid pace, being surprisingly engaging. Certain moments naturally lack the punch they usually have without the proper set-up, but I did find myself very emotionallyinvested in some iconic scenes. I see no point in discussing the series of events or the characters, as this should only be watched for what it is - a recap. It fares fairly well in this regard. SnK's world is fascinating to me, but often confusing. Some things I am still puzzled about, though I managed to recall all that I needed. I somewhat wish there was more focus on the details regarding the lore rather than some of the events, but I can't think of any pointless scenes in the film, so I suppose they fit all they reasonably could. For what it is, SnK: Chronicle is a good movie. I enjoyed getting a quick glimpse at one of my favourite series before I watch it end.

I'm not really a fan of watching recap episodes or compilation movies for the sake of completing them, especially if not that long before picking them up I finished watching the main series on which said episodes are centered. That being said, when I decide to pick one, it must be either because it belongs to a series I like a lot, or simply needs to look somewhat interesting enough to make me consider picking it up. In Shingeki no Kyojin: Chronicle's case, it was these two reasons combined, plus I wanted to refresh my memory about some cool scenes from Seasons 1-3, but withouthaving to rewatch the whole seasons. Did I enjoy watching it? Yes, I did. If we look at the concept itself, squishing the story told in 59 standard length episodes into a 2 hours long movie, sounds impressive and ambitious. I couldn't resist and not to check out what was the final result. After finishing watching the movie, I need to say I was satisfied. Not only it features pretty much the majority of the most iconic moments known from the first three episodes of the TV series, but it also succeeds in presenting "story so far in the nutshell". All of that done by focusing on the most important points of the story, with smooth transitions after each story arc or season (including seasons divided into parts, like the third one). Sure, there are many things rushed or even omitted entirely. It's something inevitable for a movie recapping a story told in 59 episodes. That's why I need to warn everyone who'd want to start their adventure with Shingeki no Kyojin after reading this review: please, do not treat it as a faster way to go through the first three seasons. You will miss a lot of details, cool scenes of all kinds, brilliant storytelling, but more importantly, you won't be able to grasp that genuine Shingeki no Kyojin anime experience. This series is definitely worth of investing one's time in watching it at least once without relying on recap episodes or compilation movies. I feel that this movie is mostly dedicated to people who are already familiar with the content offered by the TV series. That's why this recap can refresh their memories or simply serve as a compilation of the most epic looking scenes. Both more or less action-centered ones, if I may add. With all of that in mind, I mostly recommend picking up this movie if you've already seen Seasons 1-3 of Attack on Titan anime adaptation and would want to experience once again some cool moments happening throughout them.

I will start by saying I don’t like the Attack on Titan recap movies. The recap movies feel pointless and are just a compilation of the key moments of the actual series. While I do have similar feelings of this movie. This movie being a recap movie makes sense. It highlights all the key character and story events, as well as the portions of the series that had the best animation and sound design. Chronicle serves as a recap movie of seasons one to three of Attack on Titan. The reason I prefer this recap movie over the other ones is because of a simple reason,this recap movie makes sense. The world and story of this anime became much larger in season four. It’s a very different series and season three serves as the transition to this very different story and world. So to recap all the key story moments we’ve experienced up to this point would make sense. It highlights all the key points in the narrative up to this point and manages to cram three seasons into two hours. However, i would prefer watching the actual series rather then a recap. However, if you want to save time and understand the first three seasons then this movie is for you. The soundtrack of Attack on Titan is one of the best in anime. I have stated this before, but I will once again say that the soundtrack is brilliant. One of the best parts of the movie is that it highlights all the parts where the soundtrack is used best. Whether it be Eren carrying the Boulder, Eren plugging the wall in Trost district or Reiner and Bertholdt’s betrayal. I would consider these parts of the series to be the best uses of the soundtrack. Others may argue that other moments are better but these are my favourite and they were all put into the chronicle movie. Wit studios animation of the series demonstrated their best talent and abilities in animation. The most important narrative moments are often animated the best as they are key moments in the series. As a result, the key moments put into the movie have the best animation. The movie in a way serves as a compilation of Wits best work in the Attack on Titan series. Whether it be majority of the fight scenes, The fight between Eren and Reiner, the battle against Rose Reiss, etc. the best animation that wit has created is put into this film. Chronicle did a really good job at putting in the most important character moments over three seasons into the span of two hours. All the most important character moments were put into this movie, every key moment that was in the series and served a purpose towards an important character or the story. In a way, the movie serves as a compilation of all the most important character moments. Showing us the journey of these characters before they enter the very different world of Attack on Titans final season. Despite me not liking recap movies, I understand the point behind this film. It recaps all the most important moments of Attack on Titan season one to three and highlights all the best moments prior to the very different anime that the series becomes in season four. Overall, I rank this 6/10.

This movie is a recap of the first three seasons. Personally, I think its a great recap. It touches on all the important parts of the show while still keeping everything organized and concise. Would I recommend watching this instead watching the show to get into season 4? No. There are a lot of things that were missing that gives the characters their personality and drive. If you want to know what happens in the first three seasons while not wanting/caring to get attached to the characters, then I think this movie is the best way to do so but as a recap in awhole, it is well done and well made.

This season is one of the best seasons of AOT overall. I'm still living off this last episode high, but even so. Each word spoken is used and important. There are no filler episodes, no wasted screen time or useless still frames. Each part from the sound design, to the voice acting and character development. It's all amazing. Firstly, the story. The anime introduces many concepts and tries to juggle them all at the same time. You have many different factions, ideas, plans, backstabings, idoligies, all clashing at the same time. Each one trying to come on top of the other. And its intresting how theyall come down to two factions at the end. And that's what so amazing about it. The show doesn't try to mush all these concepts together, but rather tackel them one by one untill only two remain. Two decisions, all because of Eren. Which leads me to characters. Each character is written so well. They feel almost realistic. In such horrible situations, you get to see the ugly side of these characters. Each person is dynamic, going through changes internally and externaly. That could be Theo strugleing with the fact that his entire view of the world is wrong, or Armin coming to the realization that his life might have been the wrong choice to save back in season 3. And I love that their decisions actually have conquences. That not every plan they come up with works. And don't get me started with their excellent voice acting. You can really feel the spectrum of emotions that these voices portray. When they cry or outburst in anger, it feels real. As if the VA's are experiencing the situation themselves. But the voices are not the best thing about the sound design. The soundtrack is good even when you're not watching the anime. An insane OP accompanied with an impactful song for each scenario bumps the anime several times. Not to mention the carriages, horses, wind, leaves, echos, distant animals, all of the ambience. Its spot on. The anime is rarely silent, and when it is, the animation backs it up with something incredible. The animation is as amazing as always. The ODM gear scenes is still fun to watch. There are not a lot of anime that are out this season thats has good animation. AOT is a clear exception, with great fight scenes, lighting and smooth movements. My only gripe is the 3D is not the greatest. Its not horrible, but it does take away sometimes. But not all the time. For example, the final scene of Eren rumbling destroying all those battleships. Its incredible. And the 3D doesn't take away from it at all. In summary part 2 of season 4 doesn't disappoint in terms of the other season. Its many great qualities outshine my gripes. I found it very enjoyable to watch.

Figured this would be the best recap movie since it's the latest and wanted to get caught up with everything so I ended up going into S4 knowing everything, but reading the wikis and watching youtube videos explaining things has done a far better job of it than this movie did. It would've been nice to have some proper narration and for a proper story to have been told rather than just chucking big bits of action together. It was nice to watch some parts of the story again. A shame really that this didn't have Eren narrating the journey.
