Is attack on Titan going to end? What's up guys Foxen here and sorry for the
dumb question. Attack on Titan is gonna end but the real question is when? Tight
now of the WIT studio that produced attack on Titan wants to animate all the
attack on Titan. They're already looking forward to attack on Titan season 4 so
the anime ending still is further into the future. Right now the attack on Titan
manga currently is on chapter 96. The next chapter is coming out in a day or
two, so the real question is when exactly is attack on Titan manga ending? Back in
2015 Isayama had an interview where he mentioned that as of volume 16 the manga
was 60% complete. Doing some basic math and rounding up this means that the
series would be 27 volumes total. Let me stop for a moment and just mention how
amazing and interesting this all is. The attack on Titan manga was originally
planned to be only 20 volumes. Due to the colossal hit that has been Isayama
has been able to spend more time fleshing out certain parts of the attack
on Titan story. Keep this in mind. You'll see why this is important in a little bit. As
of this moment the release dates for volumes 24 to 26 have been announced.
They're all getting be bundled with a special episode of the Lost Girls series. Each
of these volumes does cover four chapters. At 20 volumes total this means
that the series is gonna end on chapter 110. Assuming there is no changes to this
this means that the Attack on Titan series won't end on October 2018. This
would be right after attack on Titan season three ended. So there you have it
mark your calendars for October next year! It'll be a sad day for all of us,
but wait hold up a second. Whether you caught up with the manga or are anime
only, can attack on Titan will the end in thirteen chapters? When you focus on that
number things don't add up. Right now in the manga you haven't seen the main
protagonist in like half a year. The current arc is only midway through
volume 24 so I do expect the current events to keep on going for at least two
more chapters. Even if this arc does conclude in two more chapters this means
that this arc would be eight chapters total. If you don't count the attack
on Titan intro and a Scouts training arc this would make it the shortest arc
in the series at eight chapters. This is why I got a strong feeling that the
current arc will continue for at least 12 chapters total. That then means that
the whole story will have to conclude in eight chapters.
Talk about mission impossible. Thankfully an updated timeline of when Attack on
Titan will end has been hinted at in an interview with attack on Titan editor.
This was from April of this year. He confirms that the manga is moving
towards the end. He goes on to talk about how they didn't wish for the manga to be
extended past a current plan, this being 27 volumes, but the path towards the end
is getting stretched longer. In other words this will definitely go past 27
volumes easy! He also mentioned how they kept on
running into situations where the current events will be wrapped up in one
chapter but instead they ended up taking two chapters to complete. I think the
current arc is a great example of this but I also think that if you look back
to the uprising arc and the arc after that there's a lot of places where you
can see this. Alright so putting all of this together
here's my theory or speculation about when attack on Titan will actually come
to an end. The current flashback arc will go on for at least 12 chapters total.
After this that'll be when the final attack on Titan arc actually begins.
Unsurprisingly this final arc could be the longest in the series. The longest so
far has been 20 chapters. Right now let's go with 20, that'll bump up the series to
a total of 30 volumes. The updated end date to this would be then October
2019. Pretty much an extra year than originally expected, but get this. The
final total instead might be 121 chapters. This way attack on Titan could
end one month earlier in September. You might be wondering why is this important.
There's actually two reasons. First off this is a pretty important date.
September 2019 would mark the 10th anniversary since attack on Titan first
began. The second reason is pretty huge for anime Watchers. Attack on Titan
season 4 should start Spring 2019 so by this time it should have already begun.
You could see a Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood situation. The attack on
Titan manga and anime could end very close to one another and that date will
be September 2019 but hey that's just an attack on Titan theory! Now let me hear
from you! Do you see attack on Titan being extended a lot more? Especially
looking at the current arc? Would you even want to see a full metal alchemist
brotherhood situation where the anime and manga
around the same time? Please be sure give this a Colossal thumbs-up and subscribe if
you enjoyed! Especially if you love attack on Titan!
I'll definitely be covering attack on Titan up until it ends and hopefully way
past that. By the way I suggest taking a look at my recent Annie facts video. I
thought there were a lot of Annie fans but strangely she's losing out to Mikasa!
Go ahead and show her some love and I'll see you guys later
