Attack on Titan: The Last Attack – A New Dawn or Finale?
‘Attack on Titan: The Last Attack’ is set to thrill audiences in Japan on November 8th. The film revisits previous episodes but has an intriguing addition. A post-credits scene has begun to spark intense conversations. Does this hint at a new anime project on the horizon?
Studio MAPPA’s Strategic Design
Studio MAPPA famously took over from Wit Studio during the fourth season, dividing the final season into several parts. This spread the episodes over a few years, creating suspense. The awaited conclusion features Eren Jaeger and the Rumbling, making its way to cinemas now. Previous finales surprised fans with post-credit scenes, but this new edition promises something even more significant.
The original series offered a glimpse into the future—a child near Eren’s grave, hinting at a cycle. This post-credits sequence might expand this vision, keeping the fandom on edge. While Hajime Isayama, the creator, reveals no plans to return to manga writing, he recently released ‘Attack on Titan: Bad Boy’, exploring Captain Levi’s early days.
Expanding the Titan Universe
Could this scene suggest a sequel or a fresh narrative? It’s unclear, but curiosity is at an all-time high. Beyond the main storyline, there’s plenty left to explore. ‘Attack on Titan: Before The Fall’ is one untapped treasure trove. Its events unfold seventy years earlier, focusing on Angel, the gear inventor, and Kuklo, the ‘Titan’s Son’.
This rich origin story could offer the perfect launch pad for more animated tales. Regardless of further developments, ‘Attack on Titan’ continues to mesmerize the anime universe. While North American fans await screenings, the anticipation is palpable.
