The characters in SnK were very interesting. The engines roaring, weapons firing and so-on, you could tell the studio payed especially close attention to the details and it was phenomenal. Once I put on my headset and listened, I was completely immersed. The quality of the sound during the encounters versus the Gauna were some of the best I have ever heard. I highly recommend if you have a pair of fantastic headphones, use them. The sound completely exceeded my expectations. While it did take some getting used to for when we were simply watching our characters walking around, it became no problem soon enough and well worth it to just see the Gardes in action. The CGI is used masterfully for every scene and whenever it was time to buckle up and fly into the heat of battle the action was on a completely different level from anything else thanks to it. In-fact, I felt rather unsettled seeing the CGI, but moving forward giving the anime a chance I realized there would be no Sidonia no Kishi without it. The world is brought to life using CGI which is what gave me the first impression that it would be underwhelming. The story has been done many times over, but not a lot could match up with what Sidonia no Kishi brought to the table. Every single moment had its intensity, the plot would constantly mesmerize you with excitement, but evens it out superbly with some comedy and scenes to ease the tension before throwing you back in the action again. The sci-fi played a huge role when showing off technological advancements and it's thanks to this and the anime's emphasis on it which made it only that much more interesting. Even at times when the scene was supposed to ease the tension or be a bit more heart-warming not once did it lose my interest. Considering humanity could be on the brink of being destroyed on a daily basis there should really never be a dull moment and there never was. The story sets itself for excitement, thrills and edge of your seat action which is all done masterfully in SnK. This setting is not necessarily new, but the way it is handled and presented can only be said to be top-notch. them and Sidonia are the pilots of the Gardes(mechs) whom protect Sidonia. There struggle is against an alien-species known as the Gauna which have brought humanity to its knees before and the only thing between Sidonia no Kishi is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi anime where everyday mankind lives in fear of being decimated, but continues to survive on an enormous ship known as Sidonia. When I began the first episode and laid my eyes on the CGI, I felt a bit underwhelmed and my opinion began to waver on the show However, SnK soon made me realize that I could have never been so wrong and I'm glad for that.
