'Attack on Titan' Season 2 Spoilers & Rumors: Royal Family is Reiss, Death of Major Character to Happen?
Japanese manga series "Attack on Titan" season 2 is still far away from returning to the small screen, but it doesn't mean that fans are left behind with nothing. As expected, rumors and spoilers have been surfacing over the web, telling the possible events that may happen in the upcoming new season. According to a report by Breathecast, a major character may be killed off in the second installment.
Rumors say that Levi Ackerman, a leading soldier in the Survey Corps, will die while trying to save Armin, Eren and Mikasa. The three are his closest companions since the first season. But despite the most talked-about claim, several fans believe that it's impossible for Levi to be die just like that. The Bit Bag also reported that the real royal family is the Reiss, an influential and healthy clan living inside the Walls. It also mentioned that Krista is part of the clan.
There are also speculations about the shape-shifting feature of humans. And if the rumors are true, it means that the Reiss family are actually Titan shifters. A leaked video also suggested that the second season may have Hanji trying to find out the mystery that was last seen in the season 1 ending. Fans will find out if the walls are actually made of dead titans. Additionally, Ymir, Reiner, Braun and Bertolt are said to have the ability to turn into titans.
As for the premiere of the second season, Movie Pilot stated that it will be released sometime later this year. There is no official announcement regarding it yet but it is said that production for it has started again, which means it's on its way. International Business Times also noted that anime director Tetsuro Araki has confirmed the information. He did not mention though when it may possibly come especially since there is an issue with the storyline.
