I didn't like the anime and hoped that perhaps if I continue reading where I stopped watching the anime, that I might find it more enjoyable (I actually stopped in season 4 and not 3, but I decided to read a bit sooner to get the connection of it again and to remember the story again as it is a few years back now that I watched the anime).
At first I thought I started to dislike it 'cause of the complexity, but I understood everything. Probably I started to dislike it as the plot changed and more plottwists came, and the story and genre led to somewhere I didn't find interesting any longer. For example, there were some scenes that were disgusting and/or sexual suggestive like when Eren had a certain thing in his mouth in volume 15-17. It became disgusting and I disliked a lot of characters from the start, even some most people liked, and the further the story got the more characters got introduced, the more I disliked it.
Others might find it enjoyable, the majority does and the character development and plot is interesting. Even though I didn't like it myself, I might actually recommend it to someone who I know will like it.

All hail Historia, the cattle-farming goddess! This volume of AoT made a serious amount of progress cutting through various plot points and tying up the Reiss arc. I am enjoying how the series is exploring various aspects of titan biology as well as the inner wall politics that Historia is now a big part of. Also, it was nice to see Eren finally not only acknowledge that he has been childish and selfish, but that he needs to push past it into a new form of maturity - and so he does. It will be interesting to see the confrontation with Shadis in the next volume (coming out this April!).

Loved this volume!
We got to see how Rod Reiss turned out and how that affected Historia. She has grown so much as a person in her own right, both mentally and socially. I thought initially she was a snivelling girl but now she is a full on strong woman in this tough world.
Eren is developing and I feel like he has gotten a lot more mature which is nice to see. I’m excited to see how the story elements relating to him develop.
The story is going in an interesting direction. I feel like it’s wrapped up nicely and could have ended in 4-5 volumes pending wrapping up loose ends (not that I would want it to) but now the ending of this volume has opened it all up again. Can’t wait to see where this all goes!
