The second season's bigger budget, more impressive animation, and heightened scale help it go some ways towards topping the first, slightly overcrowding the proceedings with yet more new characters, even before we've fully dealt with the old ones, but keeping the action intense and the fights against the building-sized opponents as desperate as ever. The lead character Eren remains whiny as all hell, with his love for adopted sister Misaka still painfully slow-burning, whilst the fate of the second Titan-powered human is in the balance. ![]() After the first season's eventful run - following a group of trainee fighters who tackle these monsters, with the reveal(s) that not one but two of these trainees has been imbued with the power to (sort-of) transform into a Titan themselves, the second season picks up right where we left off, with the shock revelation of a Titan buried in one of the walls and the ominous warning not to let sunlight touch it.Ī massive super-zombie-like Titan attack kick-starts the action, as the short 12-episode second season continues the overarching storyline to get to the truth behind these magical powers that have been gifted to a select few, all the while tackling new and increasingly tough and fast Titans (and ones who can talk!!), as well as the maintained distrust and in-fighting within the ranks, and political conspiracies beneath. The story of an alternative future, where the world has been decimated and set back hundreds of years through the appearance of skyscraper-sized "Titans" - humanoid creatures that destroyed most of the population (eating their victims) and left the survivors cowering behind walled cities until the day when a Titan managed to break the wall. It's rumoured that the rights have even been secured for a Hollywood remake, although how Western audience would digest this would be hard to see. ![]() Attack on Titan is quite the global phenomena, first manga, now found in anime, both as movies and TV shows, and even with a 2-part live-action film.
