It finally reached top 10. Can't really say right now if it deserves it or not. 7 episodes in and besides SnK's strong points (characters, music, basic structure), it's also flawless in everything else. But #10 with not even 1/3 of the series so far? HYYYYYPEEEE!!!!!

This is why you don't trust MAL's ratings ^^

At least this faith is slightly better placed than the one in Sword Art Online. But I must say, I hardly can see Attack on Titan as best show of the season. I'm still scared of the possibility of a bad original anime ending, I am a bit torn about the possibility of it ending mid-story without giving a resolution and delaying it to future seasons, and in general think that Suisei no Gargantia could still become better than SnK with a strong ending (though the infamous episode 5 really lowered the bar there), and that for artistic potential and originality Aku no Hana is decidedly superior. Aku no Hana 7 was wonderful; also, I think there is a strong possibility of the anime being actually BETTER than the manga there, since the manga after the ending of the current arc has a time skip and then a rather boring second arc, while the anime could end it with a blast when it's still good and possibly with an anime original ending. Which wouldn't be a bad thing in this case seeing how every bit of original anime writing done for Aku no Hana was rather competent, and in general the anime seems to be an original interpretation of the manga (despite being also very faithful, for now).

As much as I like Shingeki it's nowhere near my top ten yet. To be fair though, only three of the anime in MAL's "top ten" are also in mine. Four if you count Code Geass as one thing and not two seperate seasons. However, I've only seen nine of the entries in MAL's top ten.

Not that one should trust the MAL ratings, but I doubt that SnK will be is a top ten worthy show when it ends though. Especially if they were to end with an anime filler ending. That would break my heart. Though I hope they will end the show after the next arc, and go for a temporary hiatus until the manga has gone a good chunk further.

So far the anime has been doing the manga justice, of course the gore has been toned down, but that doesn't stop for some really good action filled visiuals, amazing OST by Hiroyuki Sawano and great story. Its pretty much the better ones from the ones I am watching this season (Suisei no Gargantia and Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S).

When it comes to my Top ten, I don't know yet. Its been pretty great so far, and I will wait until the show end before I make a decision in that front.
