Something I've been working on.
It's been on and off for the past two months.
Hope you like it, and use it however you want.
It's still not finished. I'm trying to add other frames to it, and it's a trial and error kind of process.

Summer vacation is great. You have all the time in the world, but I spend it making this and hugging rabbits all day. I love it.

One more thing. I made one with some music and victory music, but I messed up one frame. 1 frame! And Windows Movie Maker broke down so I couldn't redo it. Ok, I did try, but it screwed me over again.
To hell with you Movie Maker.

A new novel maybe?

 

[Beatrice]

Nope.


Actually a new Manga.
This girl is the MC and it seems to take place in one of the Cities of Wall Maria after the Fall.

Isn't it the new story about this city in the eastern part of wall Maria, forgotten by the government during the fall and left on its own?

the title is something like queen of the east city or something like that.

 

[kannazuki]

Interesting! Here's Kodansha's page for it: http://kc.kodansha.co.jp/product?isbn=9784063752960

Title: "Queen of the Isolated City" (隔絶都市の女王)
Tag line: "How cruel can people be to one another?" (人はどこまで人に残酷になれるのかー)

Creator: Isayama Hajime
Story: Kawakami Ryou
Illustrations: Murata Renji

I'm currently inclined to consider it a light novel but I can't find where that's written yet, haha.

 

[Beatrice]

“The future that was taken for granted was broken by the attack of the Titans. Wall Maria was pierced, and even in the Quinta District where Mathias and his allies live, Titans appear. Due to this, the line of supplies is cut off from the country, and the citizens begin to panic. Rita, a soldier who had joined the brigade of occupation troops, tries to protect the town that has fallen into chaos, but due to the forceful methods the brigade put into action using actual Titans, the entire city becomes afraid. In order to meet up with Rita, Mathias takes the helping hands of a band of thieves…”

Plot.

They all die miserably without saving any civilians, the end.

 

[Themistocles]

Wouldn't it be that some survive only to die in the 'regain the wall' campaign?

Citizens think they've survived only to be cast aside by the government a year or two later. How tragic.

So season 2 might just be in reproduction. It's in German by the way.
So I guess somewhere in 2 years or so we'll have the second season?

Personally, I can't wait for the epic table sitting that will take place throughout many of the episodes. I'm looking at you Eren.

Nah, 2016 is too far away, I don't think a series needs to take that long to be made. Season 1 took 6 month to make, although that's making and not preparing everything. I say we're getting season 2 probably fall 2015 the latest.

Thank you . The Q&A was pretty interesting, however due to my limited knowledge of German, I did not quite understand this passage:

"...und bestätigte, dass die Charaktere Christa und Ymir in der Tat ein Pärchen seien."

Was it just stated that Ymir and Christa are a(n) (official) couple? Not that I don't like YmirxChrista, but to have them get into a relationship off-screen is kind of disappointing. I was expecting them to have their first kiss and thus become a couple at a critical point in the future.

Also, there will be a new design of the 3DMG for the Anime. Not sure what to make of this, since I love the current design, but the future one might be even better, or may have only minor changes.

 

[ArtIristic]

I see Krista's feelings for Ymir as a very strong friendship. I mean, Krista is pretty dense to Ymir's real feelings anyway.
Ymir is definitely in love with her, and it might just be platonic relationship. It's pretty great that AoT supports same sex relationship, and in a Shonen manga no less. I'm sure it's nothing new to the medium, but still cool for them.

And I guess the "new" designs for 3DMG will be cylinder shaped, like the ones in manga. Don't know why they changed the design to begin with, but oh well.
I can't wait to see how the Beast Titan and the Dancing Titan looks in motion.

The 3rd OVA is out and subbed, thanks to get_in_the_robot and... ChodeMcJiggleTits...?

Here it is and enjoy. They added a really nice touch at the end. If you've read the manga from the beginning, you'll see.

I wasn't really sure to put it in a new thread, or not.

 

[kannazuki]

Video usually lives in the anime thread. I'll quote you over there. When in that thread, everyone please remember to use tags for manga spoilers. Including Ymir's name.

Okay, now don't be upset by what I'm going to say but it's a fine paradox that you created there.

Spoiler

You can't say Ymir's name without spoilers. Didn't use spoilers.

Still no additional infos/leaks about this light novel by the way?

 

[kannazuki]

Notice I said "When in that thread..." meaning the *anime* thread.

Right now all I can find on the "Queen of the Isolated City" novel is this ANN article.

Attack on titan ending in 3-4 years. interview from Isayama editor small summary.

Points of interests
They plan to end the series in 3-4 years.
(T/N: In a previous Q&A session with editor, he mentioned that

“Isayama wants to end snk within 25 volumes”. Do your own math)
Editor and Isayama meet up at the start of the month for 7-10 days to discuss the storyboard.

The storyboard is rough sketches for the manga.
Isayama works on the storyboard at Kodansha.

Despite being popular, Isayama is still very humble.
(T/N: He also mentioned the same thing in this interview)

"They are done with the foreshadowing".
Isayama said the next step is "steering the story towards the ending, and solving all the mysteries".

None of mysteries he finds interesting ever since serialization started have been solved yet.
Please look forward to it.
