Summary:
Eren Jaeger lives in city surrounded by monolithic walls. Outside dwell human murdering Titans. For decades members of the Scouting Legion have been the only humans who dared to leave the safety of the walls and gather information on the Titans. Every time they return, many of them are dead. Freedom loving Eren has no greater wish than to join them.
I would like to point out that so far the adaptation of this anime from the manga is really good and really pulls out all of the emotion that the protagonist is feeling. When I first picked up the manga series I thought "It would be awesome to see this made into an anime cause the fight scenes would be amazing" and then I was even more excited when I saw the anime announcement. I would suggest that if you haven't read the manga, then try to stick with the series till the end because it's such a good story and deserves all the attention it can get.
As for the anime itself: Production IG is one of my favorite companies that produce anime, so I was super stoked to hear they were taking up this project. My worries for this anime so far have been cleared; the Japanese voice actors are really good and pulled me back into the story like I don't even know what's going on. The animation is pure top notch and I can tell that it'll only get better with the bigger fight scenes that are surely to come. I can imagine if you haven't read the manga, then the dialogue might lose a few people, since they'll have to (eventually) explain the back-story for this series, but I wouldn't let that get in the way of the beautiful and unique story-line that it is. Over-all entertainment? Let's just say I'm hoping for a long, drawn out series that will go a long with the manga because there's SO MUCH to offer for this series if done right.
