Yes, I highly recommend this series. the plot is executed in such a brilliant way and there are many unexpected twists and turns (EPISODE 5 I'M LOOKING AT YOU). The author is certainly not afraid to kill important characters off. Humanity's struggle against the Titans is well-displayed and evokes the feeling of desperation into it's readers. It's a strong series DEFINITELY worth watching. When you have the time, give it a chance.
Also, you do kind of have to watch the series to understand Eren and Mikasa's relationship in its entirety. they both have saved each other numerous times and in many ways. The reason as to why Mikasa wears the red scarf is just touching. They've been through a lot together and their past is very interesting. It shaped Mikasa into what she is and how she became to be who she is now.
