One particularly dedicated fan of the vastly popular Shingeki no Kyojin franchise has released a stop-motion video depicting heroine Mikasa fending off an invasion of titans, which has not only earned the fan praise from many online but has also put a practical use to the massive collection of figurines that otaku tend to hoard.
The impressive video by Jordan Tseng:
At least 4 more episodes are planned for the series, but those unable to stand the wait may be able to sate themselves with Jordan’s other similar works:

I have trouble believing this is just simple stop motion. The cinematography and smoothness of movement is too high quality for it to just be a guy moving these figures one frame at a time.
I second this. This may be cg made to look like smooth stop-motion.
This isn't true stop-motion. The models are legitimate figma, but they only account for like 5% of the effort. The other 95% is CGI.
Facial expressions/animation? CGI
Backgrounds/buildings? CGI
The wires/sword motions? CGI
It's most noticeable with the wires and the faces, IMO. It's basically impossible to display the level of plastic grain seen on the figmas with CGI rendering without a serverfarm doing the rendering, so I'm inclined to believe that the figma are legitimate, but they're the only part of it. The rest is greenscreen.
Great stuff. I rarely see 2d sprites (the explosions and smoke) used so well in a 3d environment.
that's super impressive actually...
Very cool. This is no Rudolph the Red-Noised Reindeer or Santa Clause is Coming to Town.
I actually liked them using the out of place figures. Added some tongue-in-cheek humour.
