Adult Swim Announces Return Of “Attack on Titan” The Final Season

 

Adult Swim has announced a February 12th return for the final season of Attack on Titan. The English dubbed adaptation of the remaining 12 episodes for Attack on Titan’s fourth and final season will premiere weekly as part of Adult Swim’s Toonami lineup @ 12:30 am ET/PT.  The final season was confirmed to have switched production studios to MAPPA. Jun Shihsido and Yuichiro Hayashi are replacing Tetsurō Araki and Masashi Koizuka as directors, scriptwriter Hiroshi Seko is taking over the series composition from Yasuko Kobayashi, and Tomohiro Kishi is replacing Kyōji Asano as character designer. Hiroyuki Sawano is being joined by Kohta Yamamoto to compose the music.

The season introduces Gabi Braun and Falco Grice, young Eldian Warrior candidates seeking to inherit Reiner’s Armored Titan four years after the failed mission to claim the Founding Titan. Marley plans to invade Paradis to strengthen their weakening military and recover the Founding Titan. With the Survey Corps on the Marley shoreline, Gabi, Falco, Reiner, and other Titans go to war with the Paradis soldiers as Eren Jaeger reveals his new plan of attack on the Marleyan invaders: annihilation. As both sides take a heavy death toll, both the Marleyan Warriors and the Survey Corps must question the best approach to claiming victory over the other side. Eren’s comrades begin to realize that he has begun to walk down a questionable path, while Gabi and Falco must combat their internal tensions over the supposed “devils” of Paradis.

Funimation will stream the English dub of Attack on Titan’s final episodes starting Feb 13th.
