Series overview

Season 1

In the first season, protagonist Eren Yeager witnesses the death of his mother as she is eaten by man-eating giant humanoid creatures called Titans. This becomes Eren's motivation to develop his combat skills in order to join the Survey Corps, along with his childhood friends, to fight Titans and save humanity together. Five years later, the trio graduates and become scouts, leading them to their first mission to defend the Trost District from the Colossal Titan. Later on, during this battle, Eren is eaten by a Titan himself but discovers that he can transform into a Titan, subconsciously control it, and fight as he would as a human. Under the Scout Regiment leaders Erwin Smith and Levi Ackerman, Eren learns how to use his newfound powers to combat the Titans and continues his training as more Titans continue to flood into his homeland.

Season 2

In its second season, the main cast of characters, who have graduated and joined the Survey Corps, are thrown into action looking for the damage. After searching until nightfall, two teams meet and discover the Titans breached the walls without any apparent trace of how they entered. When the graduates and their superiors are split into four teams to tell civilians to evacuate, cadet Conie Springer arrives in his hometown, Ragako where a limp and feeble Titan lays on the roof of his childhood home; the Titan alone leaves them to question how such a stunted Titan could breach Wall Sina. When some cadets take refuge in an abandoned tower, they become surrounded by Titans, sent by the abnormal Beast Titan who can communicate with not only other Titans, but humans as well. Their experienced soldiers are mercilessly killed. Faced with fear and death secrets start to unravel. Three graduate cadets are able to shift into Titans just like Eren. Along the way, the Survey Corps discover the true nature of the Titans.

Season 3

In the two-part third season, the Survey Corps are hunted by the Interior Police, working for the secretive royal government. Serial killer Kenny the Ripper and his Anti-Personnel Squad are tasked with capturing Eren and Historia Reiss. Historia reveals that she been living under a false identity, "Krista Lenz", to hide that she is the illegitimate and sole daughter of nobleman Rod Reiss, the true king of the walls. Rod reveals she must become a Titan and consume Eren in order to reclaim his power of the Founding Titan, restoring it to the hands of the royal family. Historia nearly obeys her father, but suddenly receives memories of her half-sister Frieda Reiss, the previous Founding Titan and the only member of her family who cared for her. Simultaneously, Eren views his father Grisha's memories, learning that Grisha killed Frieda in order to steal her Titan power before passing it on to him. Historia ultimately kills her father (turned Titan), becoming Queen and de-corrupting the government, and the Scouts prepare for an operation to retake Wall Maria. They do battle with the Armored, Colossal, Beast and Cart Titans in Shiganshina District, and narrowly emerge victorious, forcing their enemies to retreat. Afterwards, reeling from the devastating battles, the surviving Survey Corps members uncover the truth: there is an entire world of human civilization beyond the walls. Eren, Mikasa, Armin, and the rest of the Scouts finally encounter the sea and see what is beyond the walls: freedom.

Season 4

The fourth season, split into four parts and subtitled The Final Season, takes place four years after the Battle of Shiganshina District. Old enemies return alongside their new allies, forming the "Warrior Unit" of the walls' enemy nation, Marley. Marley and the walls society (the island of Paradis) battle, with each side fighting for their own ideals regarding the Power of the Titans and the "Subjects of Ymir" on Paradis who may wield it. Ultimately, Eren uses his power to release hundreds of thousands of Colossal Titans from within the walls, beginning the worldwide cataclysm known as the "Rumbling"; the Scouts and Warriors put aside their differences to battle this global threat.

Critical response

Attack on Titan has received widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike and has been hailed as one of the greatest anime series of all time.[90][91][92] The show has a rating of 96% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.[93] Carl Kimlinger of Anime News Network reviewed the first two episodes of the anime adaptation, saying, "It's hard to say what kind of show Titan would be without the operatic over-direction of Tetsuro Araki, but with him in charge, it's a clenched fist of a series: always tensed up to strike and prone to bludgeoning us when it does."[94] Other Anime News Network critics praised much of the series. Rebecca Silverman said it "is both gorgeous and appalling in its visuals," and "an excellent mix of what 18th century Gothic novelist Ann Radcliffe defined as horror versus terror: the one is physical, making you want to look away, and the other is intellectual, making you want to know what's going to happen next."[95] Carlo Santos noted that "few [apocalyptic action shows] get as close to perfection as Attack on Titan does". Santos described it as "a masterpiece of death and destruction" after watching only the first episode.[96] Theron Martin of Anime News Network praised the musical score and the "intense, impactful first episode" despite his opinion that it had "limited animation". Martin also compared Attack on Titan vibe and visual aesthetic to Claymore.[97]

John Sinnott of DVD Talk called the series one of the best ones he had ever watched and one "that anime fans should not miss".[98] Maya Phillips of New York magazine and Vulture praised the uniqueness of the series, stating, "In our current age of terrifying dystopian realities, it's hard to find a dystopian show with something new to deliver - and yet here it is."[99] Phelim O'Neill of The Guardian praised the animation of the series as "spellbinding... It's all wonderfully acrobatic and intense".[100] Regarding the climactic episodes of the third season's second half, Manga.Tokyo called Isayama a "genius" for using the revelations about Grisha's past to smoothly link present events to the beginning of the story.[101] The series' handling of complex themes such as war, genocide, and imperialism has been the subject of much critical analysis, with its portrayal of such concepts being described as timely with respect to real world events.[102] The anime's allusions to the Holocaust and other historical crises have been praised for their sociopolitical commentary and depth, but have also been criticized as not taking a clear stance on these issues.[103][104]

Crunchyroll listed Attack on Titan in their "Top 25 best anime of the 2010s" list.[105] IGN and Polygon also listed Attack on Titan among the best anime series of the 2010s.[106][107] Lauren Orsini of Forbes included Attack on Titan on her list of the best anime series of the decade.[108] Esquire named it one of the best anime series of 2023,[109] while IGN and Men's Health named it one of the best of all time.[90][91]

Censorship

  • : In 2015, the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of China forbade distribution of Attack on Titan, along with 38 other anime and manga titles, which were deemed to feature scenes of violence, pornography, terrorism and crimes against public morality, in an effort to "protect the healthy development of youth".[110]
  • 🇲🇾: As part of Malaysia's censorship laws, it is required that parts of bodies which are considered indecent be censored. In Attack on Titan, the corpse of a Titan can be seen wearing a bodysuit.[111]
  • 🇷🇺: In July 2021, the government of the Russian Federation banned the distribution of Attack on Titan among various other titles, citing "concern for the welfare of youth."[112][113] Following the military invasion of Ukraine by Russia that began on February 24, 2022, the series distributor Crunchyroll shut down its subsidiaries of Wakanim and Crunchyroll EMEA in the country by its parent company Sony, due to international sanctions imposed by both Japan and the United States, thus preventing Russian viewers from legally streaming Attack on Titan.[114]

Viewership

Attack on Titan has been described as one of the most popular anime series of all time.[115] Vice wrote that it "[catapulted] anime into the mainstream in a way few other series have been able to outside of Japan."[116] NPR noted that the series played a role in the broader popularization of anime.[117] In 2021, during the first part of the final season, Attack on Titan was the most viewed television program in the United States, before it was overtaken by The Falcon and the Winter Soldier shortly before the mid-season finale.[118][119] Attack on Titan broke the Guinness World Record for the "most in-demand anime TV show";[120] it was also the world's "Most in-demand animated TV show", until it was surpassed by Jujutsu Kaisen in 2024.[121][122] The show is also the only anime series to be in TV Time's top 50 most followed TV series ever, currently at number 47, making it one of the few non-American titles and the only Japanese title on the list.[123] In 2022, Attack on Titan won the award of "Most In-Demand TV Series in the World 2021" in the Global TV Demand Awards. Attack on Titan became the first ever non-English language series to earn the title of World's Most In-Demand TV Show, previously held by only The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones.[124]
