New Attack on Titan Trailer
The adaptation of the popular manga Attack on Titan is one of the more anticipated anime from the forthcoming spring season. Indeed both Reevo and I picked it out as one of the titles we will be watching in a recent feature. To stoke our anticipation further a new trailer has been released and it looks to be as action-packed as we all hope.
Synopsis
The story begins with the human race on the brink of extinction brought on by a sudden attack from wave upon wave of man-eating giants. These giants appear to be mindless and don’t devour humans as a food source but because they enjoy it. Mankind only survived because it sealed itself in a city with 50 metre-high walls which were taller than the biggest of giants. 100 years later and people live in peace in this city. A teenage boy named Eren and his foster sister Mikasa then witness a new, even larger giant who appears out of nowhere and destroys the wall allowing smaller giants into the city. After witnessing his mother being eaten alive Eren vows to take revenge on these giants for all of mankind and murder them all.
The dark story is being turned into an anime in a collaboration between Production I.G and Wit Studio and it is directed by Tetsuro Araki (Death Note) and its series composition is handled by Yasuko Kobayashi (Claymore).
