Official Synopsis

Attack on Titan: Final Season Part 2 is streaming on Funimation and Crunchyroll in English. The series is also a contender in Anime Corner weekly polls and you can vote for it every week. The anime ranked first in the 4th week of the Winter 2022 season, beating the second-ranked Demon Slayer with a huge margin.

The war for Paradis zeroes in on Shiganshina just as Jaegerists have seized control. After taking a huge blow from a surprise attack led by Eren, Marley swiftly acts to return the favor. With Zeke’s true plan revealed and a military forced under new rule, this battle might be fought on two fronts. Does Eren intend on fulfilling his half-brother’s wishes or does he have a plan of his own?
