"Attack on Titan" series director Tetsuro Araki recently spoke about the delayed release of the second season of the anime during the press conference for the live-action film "Attack on Titan Part 1: Crimson Bow and Arrow."
According to the director, there are a lot of things happening in the "Attack on Titan" franchise this year, which hinders the second season production and has delayed the hit-anime to 2016. It was also revealed the delay is due to Hajime Isayama's best-selling manga lacking two-story arc, which make it impossible for Araki to come up with a new season.
Previously, the first season of "Attack on Titan" covered the manga's first 34 chapters. It means that the anime already showed the four-story arc of Isayama's masterpiece, including "The Fall of Shiganshina," "104th Trainees Squad," "Battle of Trost District," and "The Female Titan."
We'll have to wait until 2016 to learn more about season two but hopefully we'll start seeing more screens and video around Q4 of 2015. Until then check out these other details exciting details regarding season two "Attack on Titan."
1. All major "Attack on Titan" voice actors are currently confirmed to return including Yui Ishikawa (Mikasa), Yuuki Kaji (Eren), and Marina Inoue (Armin).
