Attack on Titan Season 2

Synopsis

Continues the story of Attack on Titan

Centuries ago, humanity faced near-extinction at the hands of giant humanoid creatures known as Titans, forcing survivors to retreat behind massive concentric walls for safety. These terrifying beings consume humans not out of hunger but for sheer enjoyment, and for a hundred years, those inside the walls lived in relative peace free from Titan attacks. That peace shattered when a Colossal Titan suddenly breached the outer wall, plunging humanity back into a desperate struggle for survival against these flesh-eating monsters. Eren Yeager, driven by the tragic loss of someone close to the Titans, vows to wipe them out and joins the Survey Corps, an elite military unit that fights Titans beyond the protective walls. Alongside his adopted sister, Mikasa Ackerman, and his childhood friend, Armin Arlert, Eren enters the deadly conflict, searching for a way to defeat the Titans before the remaining walls fall.

In this installment

For generations, humanity has lived under the constant threat of the Titans, enormous and mysterious creatures. Safety was found behind three massive walls—Wall Maria, Wall Rose, and Wall Sheena—which stood for over a century. That peace ended when the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan broke through Wall Maria, forcing people to retreat behind Wall Rose. Now, they wait for the next assault that might destroy their last refuge. In the second season of Shingeki no Kyojin, Eren Yeager and his fellow graduates from the 104th Training Corps have just begun their work with the Survey Corps, ready to fight the Titans again. Their plans are thrown into chaos when Wall Rose comes under attack, revealing that nothing is straightforward. New questions arise as the Survey Corps rushes to defend the wall, uncovering more about the attacking Titans and the hidden truths within their own forces.
