Attack on Titan final season, part 2: Release date, cast, trailer and news
The acclaimed anime series is coming to a spectacular end.
The hotly-anticipated series Attack on Titan made an epic return with the premiere of season 4, part 2 – and has captured the attention of fans worldwide with its first two episodes.
The official website has yet to release a synopsis for Attack on Titan season 4, part 2, episode 3. However, reports online have given fans a first glimpse at the episode, entitled Two Brothers, which is set to land on Crunchyroll and Funimation very soon. Given the title, it’s likely we can expect the next episode to delve further into the relationship between Eren and Zeke Yeager.
The wait for Attack on Titan’s final season might finally be over, but the arrival is bittersweet for fans of the anime, who will be sad that the show has entered its endgame. That said, we don't doubt the season will go out with a bang.
So, without further ado, read on for everything you need to know about how to catch up Eren Yaeger, Mikasa Ackerman and co. in Attack on Titan season 4, part 2 – and how to watch the episodes on Funimation, Crunchyroll and Hulu.

Attack on Titan season 4 trailer
Following the conclusion of part 1, a very short but sweet teaser for the next episode was released - and the emotional piano music suggests that it's going to be a sad one.
We got another 30-second trailer in October 2021 - again we only saw a few brief clips that did not give much away, but it did tease one last round of epic Titan battles:
A teaser visual was also revealed at MAPPA Stage 2021, along with a tweet revealing the first episode's title and confirming a winter release date:
Who is the main character in Attack on Titan?
Attack on Titan is a curious one - the main character and protagonist of the series is undoubtedly Eren Jeager, a teenager who swears revenge on the Titans after they destroy his hometown and kill his mother. He then joins the military with childhood friends Mikasa Ackerman and Armin Arlert, with the three fighting and studying Titans as part of the Survey Corps.
*Warning: spoilers ahead for Attack on Titan season 4, part 1*
However, despite his heroic origins Eren undergoes an almost reverse character arc, performing more and more violent acts until he becomes more of an anti-hero. By the end of season 4, part 1 he has announced his intention to destroy all nations outside of Paradis, and become the final series antagonist.
With half a season left, only time will tell if Eren can be redeemed...
Attack on Titan episode 73 delay
While part one of season 4 has now finished airing, there was a noticeable delay. Episode 14 of season 4 - the show's 73rd episode overall - was interrupted in Japan on 14th March due to breaking news coverage of a magnitude 4.9 earthquake in the Wakayama prefecture.
As the episode had not finished airing in Japan, episode 73 was delayed for international audiences also. The delayed episode was then aired in a double bill with episode 74 on 21st March 2021 for audiences worldwide.
Attack on Titan is available to watch via Crunchyroll and Funimation. Check out the rest of our Sci-fi and Fantasy coverage or visit our TV Guide to see what’s on tonight.
