You know attack on Titan as focusing on
the three protagonists Armin, Mikasa, and
Eren. Last time you saw ten major
changes that they made to the current
story that you know. Here's one major one
regarding Eren straight from the author
Mr. Isayama. You know Eren as that one
special Scout that could go berserk
becoming a giant Titan. What you didn't
know is that the author made a drastic
change regarding Eren and his Titan
ability. Originally everyone was actually
supposed to fully be aware that he could
become a Titan from the very beginning,
much like the female Titan. Of course
this would mean that Eren would
potentially keep this a secret which
would have changed the way he acted from
the start so much. Try to imagine just
how different the Attack on Titan story
would be for season one. How do you think
the story would change? Or who knows
perhaps Eren could have been a great
actor like a certain someone else.
Move over Eren for this next one let's
focus on the crazy and lovable scientist
Hange. You know Hange as this person
who gets extremely excited over anything
Titan related. Pretty appropriate
since she was supposed to be modeled
after a horrorcore anime fan but here's
a most interesting thing about her.
Mr. Isayama purposely draw Hange to
be gender-neutral in the manga. For the
longest time fans have been debating
online whether Hange was really a guy
or a girl.
No one was really sure. Mr. Isayama
wouldn't even comment on this when he
was asked about it. His little trolling
came to an end when it came to the anime
and live-action movie. You could clearly
see there Hange is female but even
then hardcore fans in Japan continued to
debate about it online.
It wasn't until season 2 where viewers
got a glimpse of Hange's boobage that
really ended the debate. Sorry.
If you're a hardcore fan of the series
You got to give a lot of thanks to
Hajime Isayama for creating Attack on
Titan and here's why. In his early 20s
Mr. Isayama was trying to find a
publishing company to take his work.
Unfortunately he got rejected every
single time, over 20 times. You could
imagine how he was feeling. He took it
really personal. Part of this being the
most common complaint he got, that his
drawings just plain sucked. Honestly if
you look at the early Attack on Titan
stuff you can see why they said this.
Eventually he did find that one person
that did take his work. It was funny
since after being rejected so much he
was super in shock that someone actually
liked his work. He thought that something
must have been wrong with that editor. So
here's my question that day for you guys,
what do you think of Isayama's early
drawings from Attack on Titan? You don't
got to be shy about it! Be totally honest!
Right alongside the author there's
one more man you have to thank for the
Attack on Titan series and that's the
director of the Tetsuro Araki. There's
definitely a few million people that got
in their first taste of anime from
watching attack on Titan. Maybe you
introduced your friends to it too. That
just goes to show how much he did to
flesh out the world and story in anime
form. It is even more interesting to find
out that this Attack on Titan series is
not his first mega hit. You definitely
seen one or two of these other ones.
Araki has directed High School of the
Dead, the mess that was Guilty Crown, that
Attack on Titan ripoff
Kabaneri of the iron fortress and even
Death note. Ya freaking Death Note. It's thanks
to him that we got that dramatic chip
eating scene.
Besides these Araki has also worked on
Black Lagoon and even SAO so he's got
quite the resume. Let's hope that he
comes back for Attack on Titan season 3
and season 4. Bonus thing here too. The
author actually made a cameo as one of
the Titans in the anime series. You
could thank Araki for that. And didn't
that particular Titan look a little
odd to you anyway?
After seeing all the major changes done
to Eren and all the other changes
from my past attack on Titan video
you're able to see so many what is
possibilities for the Attack on Titan
story. Turns out there's even bigger
changes that were done to the attack on
Titan story. Attack on Titan is based off
of the author's original work. He originally
made this and submitted it to the Weekly
Shonen Jump magazine back in 2006. The
original story has so many differences.
In that one there were no walls at all.
People instead lived behind some giant
trees. All of the Titans that existed
in this world had the same generic look.
There wasn't anything special about them.
oh and forget about Mikasa Eren and
Armin, those guys didn't even exist. For
some reason some of the warriors in this
story also had actual swords. The whole
look of this reminds me a lot of Naruto.
But anyway Mr Isayama later took the
skeleton of the story and expanded it
into the current story you see now for
Attack on Titan. Definitely take a look
at my past video to see the major
changes that happened before the final
version.
With the colossal hit that it was no
surprise that a ton of companies were
quick to take advantage of the Attack on
Titan hype. Move over Code Geass,
Pizza Hut in Japan was one of the quick
ones to have the colossal Titan
advertising it's delicious pizza!
I'm sure the colossal Titan must love
that special extra Mayo pizza that
Japan loves. Three times the Mayo in your
mouth!
Yummy! but let's not stop at Pizza the
Titans are very hungry. There's also the
Colossal Titan burger stack, which of
course you have to have it with your
colossal bucket of fries! What the hell
Japan! I don't even see stuff like this
in the freakin u.s. Anyway if you do
want to be healthy they also had
Titan dogs and Titan chicken bowl
mmm yummy. Even Sasha got her own brand
of chip, lucky! Besides all the food even
Universal Studios and Disneyland
Tokyo were involved with Attack on Titan
promos. They had the various Titan
statues around the park. This included
Annie vs Eren in Titan form. The
Armored Titan was there too just in case
you wanted to get touched by him. You
even had the chance to experience what
Eren's mom did back in episode 1. That's
so freakin awesome!
In addition to all the other attack on
Titan promotions Japanese fans had a
chance to see their favorite characters
in live-action from an Attack on Titan
stage play. This play was originally
planned to take place in Tokyo
Disneyland starting in July. Key word
here being was. Unfortunately this play
got cancelled a week or two after it got
announced. The reason for this was that
during one of the rehearsals one of the
acrobats was training with the wired
device that going to be used in the play.
This very likely being their version of
the 3d maneuver gear. Some malfunction
occurred and a very unfortunate accident
happened. The guy fell over ten meters
and did not survive.
Almost immediately after that the play
got cancelled.
Alright back to the Titans. Throughout
the series
you see these giant creatures with
different expressions or lack thereof.
Mr. Isayama has revealed exactly what
was inspiration for these Titans. Around
his twenties he moved to Tokyo to try to
get his manga published. He was working
part-time at this manga cafe to get by.
He recalls one specific time where there
was a super wasted drunk customer that
came in. From that experience he recalls
that guy whose inability to communicate
at all, like when your dad's super wasted!
This experience right here made him
realize how dangerous human beings could
be. He later took inspiration from this
and created the Titans.
With the popularity of Attack on Titan
you might not be too surprised to find
out where else it showed up. Attack on
titan actually had a crossover with the
frickin Avengers. It featured the berserk
Titan, the Annie Titan, the armored Titan
and of course the colossal Titan. One day
these Titan creatures suddenly appeared
in New York City. It was time for the
Avengers to assemble. You had Captain
America, Iron Man, The Hulk and even Black
Widow were trying to take out these
powerful Titans. Who knows these Titans
might even be too much for the Hulk to
handle. If you are interested in this
Marvel has actually released us for free
on their website so definitely check it
out. By the way this does mean that
Attack on Titan is now canon in the
Marvel Universe. Think about it! I could
see the Titans fighting the real
Avengers in phase 4.
Move over Thanos, a new challenger
approaches.
So do you want to take a guess at how
exactly attack on Titan is going to end?
Mr. Isayam has confirmed that
attack on titan will end with all the
characters dying off, oops
spoiler warning. I'm joking I'm joking.
That was his original plan. Mr. Isayama
has mentioned that due to the millions
of fans of the series it really wouldn't
be responsible to have his original
ending.
He does still want to end the series
organically. He thinks that attack on
Titan should end in a good way that
makes fans remember it for decades and
decades. And talking about endings that's
not too far away anymore.
Attack on Titan was originally planned
to be 20 volumes total. We're a little
past that so that plan has changed.
Based on what the author has mentioned
in past interviews attack on Titan
should either be 25 or 27 volumes total.
This means that the end date will be
February 2018 or October 2018, very
likely somewhere in between. oh so here's
one bonus thing I could guarantee that
you don't know, the release date for
attack on Titan is season 3. Which year
do you think it will happen? I don't know
about you but I really don't want to
wait another four years. Hey guys really
