Although our anime, which debuted in 2013, is very popular, as I mentioned, it did not get its new season for a long time. However, the second season of the anime, which came out in 2017, started to carry the theme of the “war of giants against humans” to a completely different place. As the subject started to get deeper, the popularity of the anime increased as well.
It’s been 8 years since the first season came out and you can still find the manga of the anime in many stores.

Of course, there are animes in the anime universe that are similar to Attack on Titan and that may attract the attention of the audience, and new ones continue to emerge.
