What happens when humanity is pushed to the brink by monstrous Titans, and a single boy’s rage sparks a revolution that will change the world? Attack on Titan is a gripping, brutal exploration of freedom, trauma, politics, and the cycle of violence — anchored by one of the most ambitious narratives in modern storytelling. With jaw-dropping animation, layered worldbuilding, and characters whose choices echo across nations, the series evolves from survival horror to an epic examination of fate, ideology, and the price of peace.
It’s harrowing, brilliant, and unforgettable.
This episode sees Brendan White joined by Sam aka QU4RTZTV in the Riverside Studio to share their thoughts on Hajime Isayama and Wit Studio's 2013 dark fantasy drama, Attack on Titan.
