Over 100 years ago Titans suddenly appeared
and devoured most of humanity, decimating civilization
The survivors built 3 massive concentric walls
to prevent another Titan invasion
and managed a peaceful life inside
But even though the walls have stood for 100 years
there are no guarantees they won't fall today
He was fired again! What a hopeless kid
Eren.. again?
What to do with him...
What to do indeed
Sorry Dad. I need to step out
Going to see Eren?
Tell him I'm all out of job leads
I'm going now
Make it clear
The usual hill, I bet
Be careful
- Hey there. Can I get some rapeseed oil?
It's a good crop this year
- A full tank
- Sure thing
Outta the way!
Armin!
This thing you made me, it broke
See?
I'll fix it later
Don't take too long
Oh, sorry
- Is Mikasa around?
- Mikasa?
Mikasa!
Eren!
I knew you'd be here
This thing keeps people away
It's dangerous
Chill out. It's a dud bomb
Ow..
What if it explodes?
So be it
I wouldn't mind..
if it blew us all up
Heard you got fired again
Only a month into the job
Longer than the security gig
Why can't you ever stick with something?
What is it you want to do?
Are you happy just taking over for your dad?
Look.. This runs on batteries
Batteries?
I want to make more things like these
Just be careful so you don't get arrested
And you, Mikasa?
- Me?
- Yeah
I only..
Are you content?
The Inner District is full of big buildings ans rich people
lots of stuff you can't find out here
Don't you want to go?
Then, what about outside the Wall?
Born inside the Wall
and dying inside it..
You're fine with that?
I'm..
not!
I'm just like..
this thing
Wait..
Hey! Let me see
Look..
- A woman..
- The ocean..
Ocean?
The big water you mentioned?
- This blue thing must be the ocean
- Ocean?
So, it was real
- Not a pond?
- A billion times bigger
That really exists out there?
Just like I said
I wonder if that bird has seen the ocean
Wanna see it?
Protecting the Wall instead of people
- Screw that job
Let's go
Wait a second..
We can't get near it
This way
Hurry, over here
I'll be fine
Careful
Right?
Never seen the Wall this close
Let's go
I don't need to go now
Then when?
If you climb the Wall you'll be executed
And they say the outside is full of Titans
Due to a huge bomb only Titans can survive outside
You seriously believe n Titans?
No one's seen them in over 100 years
Yet we're holed up in here, afraid of them
I'm sick of it
Maybe the other side..
is Paradise
Hey, what're you doing?
You renegades!
Come!
This is off-limits!
Don't touch her!
Stop resisting!
That was uncalled for!
Armin, don't!
That's enough
Hey, hey..
You haven't changed
Old man Souda..
Leave this to me
Hey! They're just kids
Go
Go on
So, trying to showoff in front of her?
It's not like that
I get it. I get it
I was caught doing the same thing as a kid
I asked your mom to come along
Your dad ended up winning her, though
This isn't about that
It just pisses me off
"Even Paradise could become a prison..
if you take notice of the walls"
Now, don't tell the others about this
We're starting a scout
A scout?
You're going outside?
Lies. It'll fall through again
It won't!
Looks like the Council will finally pass it
The public discontent is rising
You're really.. going outside the Wall?
We're forming a Scout Regiment
Eren.. how about it?
Once we find new land
we're free to live anywhere
Mikasa..
An earthquake?
Too big for an earthquake
The Wall's shaking!
It's from outside
Eren, no!
So they're.. real..
It's taller than the Wall!
This can't be..
I thought we were safe!
There's something there!
What is that?
Remember our drills!
Run! The Wall will be breached!
The town!
Hey! Run this way!
Prepare the cannons!
Hurry!
We don't have permission to use gunpowder yet!
Hurry! They're coming!
Hurry!
Don't panic! Remember the drills!
Look at those faces..
Prepare the cannons!
- Draw them in!
- Yes, sir!
Prepare the cannons!
Ready to fire!
Fire!
It's a hit!
The legend was true..
They're immortal
Reload!
Come on!
It's hopeless
Help me! I'm sorry..
I'm sorry!
Squad Leader!
Let's run!
Armin!
Ready!
That thing won't...
I'm gonna check on my home!
Armin, run...
That's.. Armin's dad
Let's go in!
Please don't push!
Wait!
That woman...
I'll go!
Get up!
I'll get the baby
Mikasa!
That's it, close it! Now!
Close the door!
Why?
There's still room!
Don't you dare open it!
The Titans are coming!
Only trying to save yourselves...
Mikasa!
Hold him down!
Mikasa!
Mikasa...
Help!
Two Years Later
The price for our years of peace
was paid for with tragedy
The Outer Wall at Monzen District
was destroyed by a Titan larger than ever imagined
Unable to counter the surge of Titans,
we abandoned the agricultural zone
and retreated behind the Middle Wall to the commercial zone
With hordes of refugees
and the loss of farmlands our food shortage is becoming dire
In order to reclaim our farmlands,
we must restore the broken Outer Wall
It is to carry out this prestigious mission
that you have all completed your training
Weapons Squad Leader Hans
Sir!
The days of our being trampled by Titans are over
Now we have Omni-Directional Mobility Gear!
With ODMG... victory will be ours!
At the Omotemachi transit point,
we will join the recon team led by Captain Shikishima
Captain Shikishima!
We will depart for Monzen at sunset
May you fight to honor the spirits of the war dead
Give your hearts!
I'll be back, so take care of Mom
The family's in your hands
Now that's a good daughter
You were always a glutton, never making yourself useful
Sasha, pick'em up!
Pick'em up I said
I'm sorry
- Just do it, Sasha
Jean, my son, you must take revenge for me
- Jean, become the pride of our clan
Offer your soul to the spirits of the war dead
- Jean! Jean!
Mommy's only going to be gone for a little bit, okay!
Just be a good girl and... Riko!
Riko!
Hey, don't cry, little brother.. Hey, hey...
Koyuki, who's this?
Is this supposed to be me?
It's a little fat to be me, no?
- Hey, don't cry, I'll be fine...
Cry baby
No one's gonna be waiting for us
- Mister
Here, you can have this
Thanks
- Koyuki, your brother's leaving now
- Brother...
- Koyuki, let's go
That's mine!
Mr. Souda
Armin...
Old man Souda?
Eren?
So you're alive!
So now...
you boys, too
Well, everyone died
What happened to the girl?
It was my fault
That's not true
That's why... I'm going to get them back
Revenge on the Titans, eh?
Killing one or two won't make a difference, you know
Why did you volunteer, then?
To see my wife and child
They're waiting
Excuse me!
What do you want?
I'm sorry
Are you finished?
Are you even listening?
Look, right now the Outer Wall in Monzen
has a hole in it like this
So we detonate this portion to plug that hole
The Wall becomes shorter, but it's twice as tall as the Titans
So we can stop any more Titans from entering
That's the Outer Wall Restoration Mission
Once we plug that hole we exterminate the Titans inside
Sasha...
But previous restoration missions failed miserably
They were attacked by Titans before reaching the Wall,
and now we are out of explosives
All that's left are the last explosives in Omotemachi
If we fail, that'll be the end of humanity
We have no choice
- You don't have to
Pipsqueaks like you just get in the way
Not just you, look around
Just a bunch of useless bums
It's been a long war of attrition
Inevitably there will be more inexperienced folks
Sure
But even the Scout Regiment was wiped out in this mission
Instead we've got...
a potato girl whose mind is only on eating...
Seconds, please
How could you eat right now?
Sorry, lady
Not enough farmlands
But I was told workers won't ever go hungry
How naive are you?
Your parents sold you to save costs
You all came here because you couldn't find work
Now I'm being lumped with you scum who're just here to die
Stop with this talk of dying
I can't.. I just can't do this!
Lil, Lil, Lil...
Don't worry. I'll protect you
Damn lovebirds. Go somewhere else
He seems annoyed
He's afraid of Titans
You nailed it
Titans are like nothing to me
Do Titans have nipples?
Do they have nipples?
You talk big for never having seen one
Just a spoiled brat from inland
Say that again
They don't!
I told you Titans have no reproductive organs
So they have no nipples, either
How they propagate is a mistery
I want to dissect one, but they evaporate when they die
So I need a live Titan!
I want to do this!
Gather in ten minutes for gear check!
Oh, that reminds me...
There was a guy who abandoned his girl when he saw a Titan
Bet he's missing his nuts, too
Hey, stop it! Knock it off!
You two, always going at it
Sannagi, let me down!
Let go of me!
We gather in ten
Hey, pick up the pace!
It'll be okay
You're going home
You're from Monzen, right?
Everyone died
I want to go home, too
Sannagi, were you from a Yuen farm?
Yeah. I want to go home and farm again
For my brothers and sisters
I'd do anything for them
The old road to Omotemachi
Titans sleep at night and their eyes won't work anyway
So we'll go straight to Omotemachi by dawn
"Abandon all hope, you who enter here"
But do not raise your voices!
Titans are very responsive to human voices
and the other Titans will notice!
Bite your tongue before you scream!
If you don't want to die get to Omotemachi by dawn
Open the gate!
Past this hell, the Goddess awaits at Omotemachi
The Goddess?
You don't know?
The Titan-slaying female squad leader under Shikishima
They say she klled over ten Titans in half a year
Sounds more like a Grim Reaper than a goddess
I'm afraid
Don't worry
There's something there
Stop the vehicles
Already there?
Awfully early
What's going on? This isn't Omotemachi
Check the premises
Move out
Oh.. come on
What is it?
Just cattle
Do Titans only eat humans?
Forward. Each squad to the front
Potato Girl, you'll wake up the Titans with that noise
Here
Not enough?
You always feed me
Wait
Still no Titans coming out. We should get there by dawn
Hey, don't say it aloud. You'll jinx us
All clear. Let's go
There's a child...
A child left behind
Don't be stupid
We have to help
Hey
We have to help...
Hiana...
I can hear it
Shit
We're close
Get up!
Those idiots...
Where? Where are they?
Hey, keep it down
You'll wake up the titans
Keep calm
Keep calm!
No matter what happens...
don't raise your voices
Captain!
They brought them
Director-General!
Go! Go!
Forward!
Hey, wait, we're not on yet!
You guys, wait!
Just run and make it to the tall buildings up ahead!
We're not fighting them?
What about the ODMG?
Where do we fire them?
We can't beat them head on!
Armin!
Sanagi!
Don't raise... your voices...
We're almost there! Run!
We're there!
That's Omotemachi!
Titans are not invincible
Even if you destroy their limbs or head..
they'll quickly regenerate
But this spot right here!
If the nape is severely damaged..
it will perish without regenerating
However, it's difficult to attack this area with firearms
Currently, our most effective tool is the ODMG
With this on our hips we can move quickly and freely in the air
Fire the anchor and reel it in to lift yourself up
Maintain the height as you aim for the nape
Of course, remember to evade the Titan's attacks
Then use the blades to carve the flesh from the nape
Without it's nape, the Titan will die
Once a Titan dies its body will evaporate
At present this is the only known method of klling a Titan
The Scout Regiment! That's Captain Shikishima
Wouldn't mind a hot Ttitan chick for once
We're finished!
I'm tying it. Hang in there
Director-General Kubal is here
You guarded the explosives well
I attempted to inspect the contents
But this was mpossible to open
Director-General, what about the explosives?
There are rumors of an insurgency, you see
I see
Certainly safe down there
Sorry, it was top secret
Finish loading by dawn!
They're our last explosives. Treat them with care
You messed this whole thing up!
If you wanna die, do it alone!
You've got a death wish
You smell, you spoiled brat
You peed in your pants, huh?
The Titans scared you?
Stop it!
You're too slow
You're the one who's slow
Thanks
What the hell..
Enough with the disturbance
Mikasa!
Mikasa, it's you, right? What happened?
Nice kick...
It's Captain Shikishima!
Rookie, your name?
Eren... I'm Eren!
Eren?
From Monzen?
... for just messing around
Your parents?
They died. I was too young to remember
I see
Um, about Mikasa...
Why is she...?
Why?
Why what?
Why is she able to toy with Titans?
I taught her
You want to learn too, huh?
Well, of course... I want to defeat the Titans
Why?
Because I hate them... those Titans
Why do you hate them?
Because... they're the ones who trapped us in
Wrong
The true enemy...
isn't the Titans
The true enemy?
The true enemy...
is safety
What do you call animals that live..
inside fences in fear of wolves?
Cattle
And what are you?
I'm...
not!
Then go fly
Fly?
You can only gain by letting go
The kid I gave this to... he died
I hear there used to be lots of machines
People back then even flew the skies
But now it's forbidden
Director-General!
At ease
Tell me, did you learn in school...
what that technological advancement led to?
Enviromental destruction, wasted resources,
useless competition and war
Precisely
Now get yourself some good rest
At daybreak we head for Monzen
Inspect your gear and rest up
Fighting is the one thing he was always good at
You reek of booze
Why do you hate that guy so much?
His face.. as if he's carrying the world's misery by himself
He lost his girlfriend, right?
Her name was Mikasa
Mikasa
I'm just...
glad
Glad?
That baby was eaten
And so was I
The world is cruel
I'm just going to kill Titans
Sorry
Did I interrupt?
No
Want it?
It's good
Calling the Titans again?
Sorry
It should be me apologizing
Forget it
What happened between you and Squad Leader Mikasa?
Still act like a kid, huh?
It doesn't matter... anymore
- There's someone here
- It's fine , they're not looking
- Hey, wait
Your back feel okay?
- Lil, I love you
Wonder if those two will get to marry
If they make it home alive
It's not right that we need permission to get married
And even if you have a baby...
Riko...
You have a daughter, was it?
By volunteering for duty, I get child support
You okay with a single mother?
Will you be father to my daughter?
I don't want to die! No, let me go!
We're surrounded! We're under attack!
We're under attack! We're under attack!
Lil, Lil! Hurry!
Put on your ODMG!
- Lil, let's go! - Wait!
- Defend the explosives!
- Too narrow here to fire our anchors!
- ODMG troops to the rooftop!
Damn!
- Four ahead, you go left
- Will do
Quit fidgeting. At least die with dignity
Come on, move it!
It's all about the explosives!
Defend them at all costs!
This side is gone, retreat!
- Hey, wake up! I said wake up!
Please, wake up...
It's dangerous here, let's go
Wait! Will you please treat him?
I'm sorry, but your boyfriend is...
- Fukushi...
We have to go
Let me go! Let me go!
I'll kll them Titans! I'll kill them!
Let's go
Hey
Who's driving that?
No one gave you permssion!
- Thief! He's stealing the explosives!
Stop! Stop!
Get out!
Die, you Titans!
Stop it! Stop the vehicle!
Why's it on fire?
Stop it!
There you are!
I'll kill you all!
Get down! Get down!
Fukushi..
How pretty
But such a waste
The explosives... That was it!
Don't! You're gonna die!
How could this happen?
This belonged to the thief
This is hell...
What are you doing here?
Humans are...
weak, you see
We'll be eaten
Now's the chance... Let's run
What do you call animals that live
inside fences in fear of wolves?
Cattle
And what are you?
I'm not!
Then go fly
I can't! There's no way we're going to win!
Then be that way for the rest of your life!
Eren!
Bastard...
Damnit
You can't fear being caught!
Fly right into them!
Fly!
Close one
Always go back to deliver the final blow
I'll do it!
You're mine!
Well, sometimes we're unlucky
Hey!
Hey, look!
Jean!
He only talked big
Everyone, I have a plan
Pull back...
Hey, big guy! Wanna eat more?
- Then try eating me!
You can never eat enough!
What, you clunkhead? You angry, huh?
Mr. Souda, please...
Guys...
Come here, Titans!
Come on, you slowpokes! Come over here!
Now!
Don't mess with me!
Well done!
Good, let's move on!
Where's Eren?
Somewhere up there, dead
Armin!
Armin...
Damn, they're not working!
Armin!
I won't let you...
die here!
Eren!
Armin!
Hiana!
I'm driving you all out...
Let's get out of here! It's full of Titans!
Something's calling them
Where's Captain Shikishima?
Fighting, probably
Where's Director-General and the Guards?
They already evacuated...
Don't tell me... they used us as bait
Minami!
Hey, get away, Minami!
Mikasa
Eren was... eaten
It was my fault
I'm sorry
I'll carve an escape path
Our task is still to kill Titans
You can't! You're almost out of gas!
Come!
What was that noise?
What's going on?
A Titan attacking a Titan?
What's happening?
Look a the regeneration speed!
They're gathering here
Is he on our side?
His fighting clearly demonstrates intelligence
I've never seen this!
Mikasa, get back here!
Like hell he's on our side!
Eren?
Is it my fault?
Mikasa!
You okay?
Can you stand?
Is he dead?
So he's finally out of steam
He'll evaporate! He's gonna evaporate!
Ow, it's steaming hot!
Cut open his nape, but don't injure the inside
What? What are you talking about?
Just do it!
Hurry or he'll be absorbed into the Titan!
The cells will assimilate!
Is that Eren?
Eren...
So that's why the Titans' weak spot is the nape
"Be careful when you fight the monsters,
lest you become one"
