'Attack on Titan' Season 2 Plot News: War with Titans threatens to take away Eren's identity
"Attack on Titan" is finally returning on air and details about the anime series' second season are steadily pouring in. This may bode well for the fans but things are not looking so good for the series' protagonist, Eren Jaeger.
Three years have passed since the freshman season of "Attack on Titan" aired and wowed viewers the world over. But 25 regular episodes and 5 special episodes just weren't enough to satisfy the audience which has already grown to love the anime's intense and often bloody action sequences coupled with a gritty and compelling story of survival.
The official synopsis for the upcoming second season states that Eren continues to uphold his sworn duty of taking out every last Titan threatening the existence of mankind. But engaging in the seemingly never-ending battle and risking his life at every turn may lead him to become what he hates the most.
