Question Doubt on image

[mackie1102]

Hey, guys! I'm kinda new here so I don't know if I'm doing this right. Hope I am

Anyway... I found this image

I know the first one comes from Muv Luv and it's clearly a comparison. But I'm not sure if I've seen the second one on SNK manga. It seems weird but at the same time pretty genuine to me. So, I was wondering if someone knows where it comes from and who is supposed to be the titan Eren is fighting with?

Thanks!

It doesn't look like something from the Trost arc that I recall, and that's not Annie or Reiner. So my guess is that it's fan art.

Can you point to where you found it?

I remember seeing this in Japanese boards. It's probably just fanart or a crossover special pic.

The thing that Eren is fighting is I think a monster from Muv Luv. http://muvluv.wikia.com/wiki/BETA
I think it's that Grappler Class BETA.

I've never watched or played Muv Luv though.

Wow, so the first one is from Muvluv? The drawing style is so similar! And I'm sure I've never seen the right one before, but just like the Muvluv one the drawing style is way too close to Isayama's. And that monster looks really scary. Where did you find these?

I found it here: http://blog.livedoor.jp/nikoniko_news777/archives/27506510.html
And here: http://shingekikyojin.net/archives/31079682.html But this one is kinda hard to see.

Interesting Yeah, I'd totally say it's Grappler class thanks!

Later on, I realized Isayama drew it XD Sorry about this.

Isayama-sensei, thank you for your brilliant illustration and commment!
I wonder if it were a good thing to be so frank about this (lol.)

I never would have thought our collaboration would take shape in this manner.
Every time I read "Shingeki no Kyojin,"
I would think, "Ah, so you could do this in presenting the story!" and learn from it.
With my undefeated spirit,
I will also give it my all in drawing "ML-Alt"
So let's do our best!

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Isayam-sensei as well as everyone from Koudansha's Editorial Department.
