An English-subtitled trailer for the upcoming film Attack On Titan has been released and I’m not lying when I say that it gave me goose bumps. It’s packed to the brim with action, gore, and sweeping shots that reveal the omni-directional mobility gear in action.

I had heard a lot about the Attack On Titan series from friends and through Imgur, who as a community are kinda obsessed with it. When it hit Netflix, I figured, “Why not give it a shot?” and ended up plowing through the entire series in about two weeks. While it featured the stereotypical “we have to scream nearly everything we say” cliche, it’s still an incredible series that’s wildly imaginative and beautifully constructed.

I’m absolutely hooked on seeing this movie at the first opportunity. If it hits a local theater, I’ll be there opening night and I highly recommend that you be there too.

In Attack On Titan, “The sudden arrival of the Titans–mysterious, gigantic humanoid creatures who devour human beings one after the other–brings mankind to the brink of extinction. Fast-forward more than 100 years later. What remains of the human population now live in relative peace behind massive walls that were erected to defend themselves against the Titans. Yet once again, that peace is shattered when a Titan measuring over 50 meters tall smashes through the wall, allowing a horde of other Titans to enter. The protagonist, Eren, had been resigned to a life confined behind these walls. Nothing I do would make a difference, he thought. But when he joins the “Outer Wall Restoration Team” set up to fight against the Titans, he is reunited with Mikasa, a childhood friend and someone he had long rued not being able to save. The new recruits embark on a mission to obtain explosives, which had become rare and precious, before getting past the waves of Titans to plug the gaping hole in the wall, with humanity’s survival on the line. Will there be a future for Eren and Mikasa, and for mankind itself?”

Attack On Titan is being split into two films. The first film will hit Japanese theaters on August 8th and the second film, which bears the subtitle End Of The World, premieres on September 19th. Both are directed by Shinji Higuchi, who is also attached as director of Toho’s Godzilla reboot.
