The anime being a top seller is a bit of an understatement if the predicted sales are anything to go by, and they're usually very close to the actual numbers.

Nothing but Mikasa can be accredited for this series great success.
Her performance this week is described as flawlessness personified. Really she needs to be considered the MC.

Are you talking about her voice actress or...?
Because she ****ed up pretty hard this week. She wasted all her gas, had to take what little Armin had remaining, and almost got herself killed. Mind you it's pretty understandable, considering what happened, but she's not flawless. That would make her like a Mary Sue.
A few moments from the manga were slightly different this episode to my disappointment. The guy who shot himself in the head wasn't nearly as joyous as he was in the manga so it wasn't as unintentionally funny. From a storytelling perspective that's for the better but hey, I wanted to laugh. Also Sasha didn't do a cute stutter while insulting the others.
and wtf was with deh music?

Mikasa, the character, has me enamoured. That was a powerful moment when she wanted to die but her body wouldn't let her and reacted to preserve her life.
Armin volunteered his gas, let's be fair, he's more of a strategist.
Potato girl? Them be fighting words. Ain't nobody got time for dat.

This.
"That powerful moment where she was about to let herself die but then she let herself live" Isn't it just instinct?
Yes he is. He's indispensable later on.
THE MEEEEMES JACK. DNA OF THE SOUL.

Episode 7 has been the one to finally get me into Attack on Titan. Seeing Mikasa's personality emerge has got me invested now - her instinctively fighting for survival was great to see. But what's with the titan-killing titan? It seems like it could be Eren reborn or something. I dunno, the timing seems convenient, and I doubt he's gone for good since if he was, the weird little scene in episode 2 with the key and the injection would have been completely pointless. There's got to be some way he can still be in the story. Of course, the methodology may not have revealed itself yet. Or I could be completely wrong.
I know pretty much everyone except me has read the manga, so you'll probably know whether I'm on the right track or not, but please don't tell me if you know.

This much was obvious. I'm still waiting to see if Maxy Whitehead is cast as Armin.

Could be worse. It could have been licensed by Aniplex and then the only chance at getting Blurays is by shelling out over $550.
Still not over it.
Been there, done that.
Ridiculously priced Kara no Kyoukai BD box is ridiculously priced.

Having just watched the series this week I wouldn't pay that much. Maybe if movie 5 had a standalone release I might pay some extra for that but not something like $100. Even for Gurren Lagann I wouldn't pay over $550 as evident. Hell I CAN'T PAY THAT MUCH. MY CREDIT CARD LIMIT IS $500. AUGH. ANIPLEX.
Staying on topic, apparently there's a Shingeki video game rumored to being in the works as well? What would you guys wanna see, because a 3D Maneuver Gear simulator would be hype.
Nitro+ should sick the Urobutcher onto one of those VNs, the **** he could do in this world.

Okay, I want this to be at the start of every episode from now on.

I don't think it does. I've been watching this series, because I've been hearing good things about it but the show just makes me angry at the actions of humans. I keep watching and reading the manga hoping that one day someone will come to their senses. There is nothing about killing the titans that suggests they would be that much of an issue for humans. Most of them aren't that smart or fast, and they all have a go to one hit kill spot, in a very specified area. What we do know is that part of the reason the titans are such an issue is because the people have been horrible at preparing for it.
For example today I watched episode six and they mentioned in the PSA that the steel used to kill the titans is produced in only one factory in the capital city. Like, why would you do that? For example during WWII FDR literally commissioned auto makers to build tanks and jets. Factories making the steel should be everywhere possible. If they are in need of supplies they should conscript everyone able to scout the land, in small groups to not attract too many titans, to collect. And if one in twenty are gifted at slaying titans, they should figure out what what it is and if it requires breed those people like crazy. Start conscription and training as early as possible. We know they've had 100 years where the titans never got inside the walls, they should have used those 100 years to prepare.
It's hard claiming that the plot is convincing when you juxtaposed to a series like Evangelion, where we see humanity actually dedicates all of its resources to fitting the angels. Where in Attack on Titan it comes across like actually fighting and winning the war against the titans is just a chore, that they don't even take that seriously.
