Attack on Titan (manga): Difference between revisions

Attack on Titan is an anime/manga about humanity's struggle against Titans, man eating giants. The story starts in the year 845. A little over 100 years ago, the Titans appeared, and pushed humanity to the brink of extinction. Humanity retreated into stronghold with mighty walls the Titans couldn't breach. Since then, humanity has been locked in a stalemate against the Titans. Shortly after the story begins, a colossal Titan<ref>later named "the Colossal"</ref> appears, and destroys an outer wall, letting its smaller kin into the city. It is known for [[Anyone Can Die]], so don't get too attached to anyone. Between deaths and the initial mystery sounding the Titans, this show has lots of spoilers to avoid. The show goes far beyond simply showing fighting between humans and Titans. Plenty of attention is paid to the virtues and faults found in humans.
