I followed up on Neilpoleon's (
https://slickdeals.net/forums/member.php?u=1108837) comment on the free manga from Google/Amazon post (
https://slickdeals.net/f/16519501-attack-on-titan-ebook-more-kodansha-manga-comics-free-google-play?v=1) and found the too-good-to-be-true deal to be real. (I learned my lesson from the James Bond 24-movie bundle for $9.99 on Vudu.
)
It's a suggested $25, but you can contribute more for charity. Seems legit since "Humble Bundle, Inc. a Ziff Davis company" (at the bottom of the page). I assume they'll just e-mail you a link so you can download the files in epub, pdf, or cbz format.
I haven't bought it myself...yet. I have more than half of the original AoT manga which I still haven't read yet.

Worth reading if you've seen all the anime so far?
I don't know about the spin-offs but the main series is definitely the full one in the $25 tier.
It's difficult to say if this series is good for someone new to manga. The theme of humans being eaten alive may not be for everyone. A bit too much on the serious side. Also, I heard from a friend that the art for this series is not that great. So for those reasons it may not be a good starter series.
On the other hand it's a huge hit. So might be worth checking out to see what all the fuss is about.
I'm no expert in manga (mostly stick to anime) so take my recommendation with a pinch of salt, but 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' might make a better starting series. That too is a recent series that's a big hit. It has a good story, action and comedy. A few similar themes in humans being hunted by demons but it's a bit in the lighter side than AoT.
edit: Both epub and pdf should be doable on Kindle. They do have instructions on how to do it linked on the download page.
I can get the point of the lowest tier. It gives you a flavor for the series without spending a whole bunch. For people who are not sure about whether they'll like the series, they can read the first few chapters to get an idea, and then decide to buy the rest.
They ought to have split it this way -
• Lowest tier - Gives you a sampler
• Middle tier - Gives you the full main series, OR gives you the complete spin-off set
• Highest tier - Gives you the complete main series + the spin-offs
I realize they did it this way to push folks into the highest tier. But in that case, might as well just have the lowest and highest tiers only. This weird split is neither here nor there.
It's one of those "Jedi mind trick" marketing ploys. People that want a sample will go lowest tier, and then people who were thinking of going middle will fork up the extra $10 to go highest.
They purposely don't do the logic you pointed out because they're not looking out for the consumer, they're looking to max profits.
