'Attack on Titan' season 2 spoilers: shocking death of character, new titan will appear
Good news for all the fans of the hit Japanese manga series "Attack on Titan." After a wonderful and adventure-filled Season 1 that ended in 2013, the anime series is coming back for its second installment. According to Movie News Guide, director Tetsuro Araki announced that Season 2 of the show will come back in 2016. There's no specific date yet for the series' release but Araki explained during an interview last year the reason for the delay.

But even with the delay and quite a long wait, fans are kept entertained via rumors and spoilers found widespread on the internet.
According to a report by Latin Times, the upcoming season will show Commander Erwin Smith losing something very important—his arm! It has not been fully detailed yet on how he will lose it or who will he battle with but most likely, it's with a titan. Eventually, Smith will think of himself as useless and a liability, which is why it will lead him to decide on quitting the squad. The site also revealed that the commander will be leading the rebellion against a king who is discovered to be a bogus member of the royal family. It turns out the Reiss family, which includes Krista Lenz or Historia, is the real heir of the royal crown.
