'Attack On Titan' season 2 release date: Series to return by 2016, exhibit expected at Universal Studios

"Attack On Titan" will be getting a new season by 2016 and, according to Crossmap, production already commenced last October. Fans do not seem to mind the long wait, as long as the production team can get it as close to the manga as they can. However, the airing for the English-dubbed version of the anime is still unknown. Air Herald said that it may entail another year of waiting for fans outside Japan. It took a year for season 1 of the series to get to Adult Swim, thus it might be the same case for this one. While Wit Studio works on that, there is a plethora of content for fans to enjoy to fill in the time. 

"Attack on Titan Part 2: Wings of Freedom" is landing on the big screen in Japan on June 27. It is the follow-up to "Attack on Titan Part 1: Crimson Bow and Arrow," where, on its premiere, director Tetsuro Araki along with actors Yuki Kaji (Eren), Yui Ishikaw (Mikasa), and Marina Inoue (Armin) announced the second season of the much-loved series. 

The new movie is roughly five months away so, for the meantime, fans can gear up for a trip to Universal Studios in Japan to see "Attack on Titan: The Real Exhibit." It would be silly for visitors to miss a 49-foot Eren brawling with a female Titan that is at 46 feet. The attractions, which include "Monster Hunter," "Neon Genesis Evangelion" and "Resident Evil," will be up from Jan. 23 to May 10. 

Lastly, the 3Ds game based on the anime called "The Last Wings of Mankind -Chain-" is said to be "a solid upgrade" from its predecessor, Kotaku declared. The game is guaranteed to offer bigger and more challenging missions to players that even the optimal max-level characters would find hard to get through. The online multiplayer that comes with a World mode is also praised and is apparently more difficult than that of the single player. Finally, a DLC is being prepped up for the addition of more levels where players can assume the role of Levi and Sasha.
