Year 845:

The Colossus Titan that suddenly appeared along with the Armored Titan

destroyed everything as easily as it did the wall.

Wall Maria was abandoned.

And with a fifth of its population and a third of its land lost,

mankind had its territory reduced to Wall Rose.

Then, in the year 850...

Mankind's retaliation...

begins now!

The target's right before us!

It's the Colossus Titan!

This is our chance!

Don't let it get away!

Hey.

It's been five years.

They're the prey, and we're the hunters.

It was... aiming for the cannon?!

So the destruction of the gate wasn't a fluke!

It does have intelligence, after all!

But this is our chance!

Only this one can break the wall!

If I can just take it out...

Too slow!

Got you!

Come on!

I missed?

No...

The Colossus Titan disappeared!

Eren! Did you kill it?

No!

It's the same as five years ago.

It disappeared as suddenly as it came!

Sorry. It got away.

Why are you apologizing?

We couldn't even move.

Hey, we don't have time for chit chat!

The wall's been smashed.

If we don't seal it soon, the Titans are gonna invade again!

What are you doing?!

The strategy against the Colossus Titan has already commenced!

Return to HQ at once.

If you've made contact with it, be sure to report that!

Sir!

We pray for the vanguard squad's success!

Keep your belongings to a minimum!

Please evacuate in an orderly manner!

Should they get past here, the tragedy of five years past will repeat itself!

We shall ensure the Titans stop here!

Prepare to intercept!

Fire!

Charge!

You recruits are fine soldiers who've managed to graduate!

We anticipate your contribution to this operation!

It'll be all right, Hannah.

I'll protect you no matter what.

Franz...

Are you okay, Armin?!

I-I'm fine.

We'll get through this soon enough.

B-But we're in a pinch now.

We lack the means to quickly seal an eight-meter-tall hole at the moment.

What's more, that large boulder nearby still hasn't even been dug out!

Because the hole can't be sealed, this town will be abandoned!

It's only a matter of time until even Wall Rose is breached!

When it comes down to it, they can plunge mankind into ruins if they ever wanted to!

Armin!

Calm down.

Things are different now.

Mankind won't lose to the Titans anymore!

Sorry.

I'm fine.

Hey, are you even trying?

Look. It's my victory once again.

Even though we've been playing regularly once a month,

you haven't improved a bit, Pixis.

Oh my, I'm still no match for you, Marquis Bart.

Are you not the chief executive who governs the entirety of the southern territory?

How do you plan to win against the Titans with such skills and intellect?

Commander Pixis!

A report just in!

Who are you?!

How ru—

The Colossus Titan has appeared at Trost District!

The gate has been destroyed!

This wine is sublime.

As your comrade on the battlefield, allow me to partake of this drink.

H-Hey! Wait, Pixis!

Pixis! Hey, hold it!

I won't allow you to leave here!

Assemble soldiers here at once and devote yourself to protecting my dominion!

That is your duty, is it not?!

Marquis Bart, there are soldiers risking their very lives fighting in Trost District right now.

Commander, we shall prepare a horse.

And there are likely many falling in the line of duty.

Even now as we speak.

Their lives are worthless anyway.

Abandon them.

Besides, even if someone like yourself who can't defeat me in chess went,

the situation would remain the same.

Please be at ease, Marquis.

In a true battle where the Titans are his opponent,

there is no need for Commander to pull any punches.

That's enough.

Marquis Bart, please continue to live peacefully and quietly as usual.

H-Hey!

Pixis! Don't go, Pixis!

Pixis!

Now then, split up into your respective squads as you did in training!

Under the command of the Garrison,

you'll carry out supply support, intelligence communication, Titan clean-up, and so forth!

The Garrison's interception squad will take the vanguard section!

The Training Corps under our command will take the middle guard section!

The Garrison's elite squad will take the rear guard section!

Note that, according to reports, the vanguard squad has already been wiped out!

The outer gate has been breached, and the Titans have invaded!

Put simply, we're in a situation where the Armored Titan

could appear at any moment and break the inner gate!

No way.

You're kidding me.

If even Wall Rose falls...

Silence!

We're currently intercepting them at the vanguard section!

This defense operation consists of a single objective:

to defend Wall Rose to the last until the evacuation of the residents is complete!

Finally, though I'm sure you're all aware, fleeing before the enemy is a capital crime!

Steel your will and offer your lives!

Dismissed!

Sir!

Why today?

One more day, and I would've been within the inner walls...

You okay?

No. No. No. No. No.

Out of my way.

Hey, Jean, what's wrong?

"What's wrong?"

Don't give me your reckless bullshit, you damn lunatic!

You want to enlist in the Survey Corps,

so you're prepared to become Titan food whenever.

But I was gonna be within the inner walls by tomorrow, you know!

Calm down!

Are you telling me to calm down and go get killed?!

No!

Think back!

About the three years we put our blood, sweat, and tears into!

During those years, we've had countless brushes with death.

There are even some who've actually died.

Those who ran and those who were driven out too.

But we made it through alive.

Didn't we?!

We're sure to make it through this time, as well.

You're gonna survive today, and be within the inner walls by tomorrow, right?

Damn.

Let's go, Dazz.

Quit crying already!

Okay.

Eren, if the fighting gets chaotic, come straight to me.

Huh?

But we're in different squads.

Depending on the situation, things might not go according to procedure.

I will protect you.

What the hell are you—

Recruit Ackerman.

You've been specially assigned to the rear guard.

Come with me.

W-With my skills, I'll only be a burden!

I'm not asking for your opinion.

Right now, with the evacuation lagging,

we need as many elites near the residents as we can get.

B-But—

Hey!

That's enough, Mikasa.

We can't afford you getting panicked!

This is a crisis with mankind's fate on the line!

How can you be prioritizing what you want?!

Sorry.

I wasn't thinking clearly.

I just have one request.

Please, don't die.

I won't.

I... can't afford to die here.

After all, I've yet to know the true reality of this world.

Even in past historical records, the origin of the Titans' appearance is unknown,

and nearly everything mentioned is uncertain.

At present, the only facts we have on Titans

are from the Survey Corps' latest reports.

It appears the Titans do not have the capacity for intelligence like humans,

and hence, there has been no recorded instance of communication between our races.

The structure of a Titan's body fundamentally differs from other organisms.

They lack reproductive organs, and their method of breeding is unknown,

but the majority of them have masculine features.

Their body temperatures are extremely high,

and for reasons unknown,

they display absolutely no interest in any organisms other than humans.

Their sole behavioral principle is to consume humans,

but judging from the fact that

they've survived in an environment without humans for a hundred years,

we can conjecture that they have no need for sustenance to begin with.

In other words, there is a possibility that

their motive is not to prey, but simply slaughter.

And the fundamental reason why humanity has been cornered to this extent

is due to the Titans' amazing vitality.

Since long ago, mankind has made use of cannon technology,

but it proved ineffective in repelling them.

The Titans don't die even if their heads are blown off,

and though it depends on the Titan,

the eradicated cranium regenerates within a couple of minutes.

No way.

That on top of their gigantic size...

Instructor! Does that mean the Titans are immortal?

No, they are not.

There's one way to defeat a Titan.

You aim here.

If a Titan suffers substantial damage to this area,

they die without being able to regenerate.

That's why, in order to hack through their flesh, these two blades are used.

If an attack manages to reach a Titan's vitals,

you can instantly kill them without giving them a chance to regenerate.

Hey, Armin.

Don't you think this is a nice chance?

Before enlisting in the Survey Corps...

If we contribute to our first campaign,

there's no doubt that we'll quickly move up the ladder as new recruits!

Yeah.

No doubt at all.

Just so you know, there are a ton of people aiming to enlist in the Survey Corps this term!

Eren got a head start on us earlier, but not this time!

You said it, Thomas.

It'll be a match to see who can take down the most Titans.

Don't rig the numbers.

34th Squad, advance!

You'll be backing up the vanguard!

All right, here we go!

Yeah!

The Titans are already...

The vanguard's been routed.

What are they doing?

Those haughty seniors who were constantly boasting...

I wasn't thinking optimistically about it at all, but this is just...

An Abnormal!

Stop!

Huh?

How dare you?!

Eren!

Stop! Going solo is...

Hold it right there!

How dare you kill Thomas!

I won't...

I won't let you escape!

Eren!

Eren!

Stop!

Please stop!

Why?

Am I...

just watching the scene of my comrades getting eaten?

Why... won't my body... move?

A-Armin...

Eren! Eren!

Eren!

What's up, Armin?

My grandpa had this stashed away.

It's a book with things about the outside written in it.

A book about the outside?

Isn't that illegal?

The Military Police Brigade is gonna catch you.

It's not the time to be worrying about that!

According to this book, the majority of this world is covered in a body of water called the ocean!

What's more, it says the ocean is made up of saltwater!

Salt?

No way. You can make a fortune selling salt.

The merchants would take it all in no time.

The ocean's so large that it'll never run out!

As if that's—

And salt isn't even the tip of the iceberg.

Fire water, land made of ice, fields of sand!

The outside world must be way bigger than the lands within the walls!

The outside world?

Anyway, this is supposed to be a secret, but...

My mom and dad said they'll be going to the outside world soon.

The outside world, huh?

Hey, Eren.

It'd be nice if we could also explore the outside world someday.

Eren!

As if I could die in a place like this...

Armin...

Because... you showed me...

I... want to go...

Eren, hur—

Your dream is where my heart belongs.

The rain that suddenly fell...

The quiet sound of its drops...

The dampened air...

The sparingly sweet smell of the rain

reminds Mikasa of a sad and gloomy incident of the past.
