Rumors Emerge That Attack on Titan Season 2 Is Now In Production
"Attack on Titan" ("Shingeki no Kyojin") has become an immensely popular anime in both Japan as well as in the Western Countries like the U.S. The first season ended Sept. 28, 2013 with a second season only confirmed for production with no announced release date. Speculation places Season 2 airing in 2015.
The anime was based off of a manga of the same name created by Hajime Isayama. The manga is still ongoing and is currently on its 61st chapter. It's been a year since the end of the first season and fans are constantly on the lookout for a season 2 premiere date.
Still, the production of the anime is highly dependent on the speed of Isayama's manga releases. 14 volumes of the manga title has already been released.
