Synopsis
It is a world with many Titans. Humans had built huge walls to prevent the Titans from invading. One day, the wall is destroyed by a super-sized Titan and humans are on the verge of extinction. Eren, whose mother was killed by a Titan, swears revenge on all Titans and enlists in the Survey Corps. What are Titans? What is outside the wall? To uncover these mysteries, the Survey Corps risk their lives to investigate outside the wall.
Review
A 34-volume long action manga centered on the battle against the Titans. It is a masterful storyline that grows larger and larger in scale as various mysteries are gradually revealed. Despite the complete fictional nature of the Titans, readers will feel an overlap between the story and the real world when they finish reading this story. What is the truth? What is justice? Why do humans continue to wage war?
Perhaps you may experience indigestion at the beginning due to the many mysteries and grotesque scenes, but I urge you to read the story to the end. You will be shocked by the storyline that goes beyond your imagination. If you are dissatisfied with the grotesqueness or the artwork, I recommend the anime version.
