Attack on Titan is coming to theatres to commemorate The Final Chapters releasing on home media, but you’ll need to be living in Japan for now.
Since the last episodes, the Part 4 of Season 4, are arriving on Blu-ray in a special Attack on Titan: The Final Chapters set, a new movie is coming to theatres. It’s a compilation film, known as The Last Attack.
The announcement comes with a trailer, demonstrating some of the incredible scenes from those last episodes. Lots of fire and titans, and members of the Survey Corps being pushed to their limits.
The Last Attack is just under two-and-a-half hours long, making it a strong evening or afternoon out at the cinema. It arrives at a point where anime is riding high at the box office.Haikyuu!! The Dumpster Battleand Gundam Seed Freedom are among the highest-grossing movies of the year in Japan.
Besides them, we’ve hadBlue Lock: The Movie – Episode Nagiand Demon Slayer: To The Hashira Training as well, both of which got wide releases as well. The latter was a compilation film also, though Demon Slayer has done them since the second season.
