In a world where humanity is on the verge of extinction due to gigantic humanoid creatures called Titans, survivors have taken refuge inside walled cities. Over time, most people have forgotten the true danger and grown complacent with their imprisoned existence. Angel Aaltonen, once one of those oblivious citizens, witnesses the Titans' real terror and realizes how fragile their defenses are. Driven to protect his comrades, he dedicates himself to creating a powerful weapon capable of fighting these monsters. Years later, Kuklo, who was found as an infant in the regurgitated remains of a Titan and labeled the "son of the Titan," is freed from his cage after a lifetime of imprisonment. Gaining awareness of his own life, Kuklo finds purpose in confronting a Titan directly, seeking to understand why humans have always feared and suspected him. He joins the Survey Corps, unaware that he might be the key the struggling military force has been waiting for. "Attack on Titan: Before the Fall" weaves together two distinct but connected stories that chronicle humanity's struggle, suffering, and determination to transform from passive victims into active opponents of the Titans.
