Since its anime launch in August 2013, "Attack on Titan's" popularity has skyrocketed to international standards from its humble beginnings in Japanese television. Being one of the most anticipated anime television series of our time, speculations are all over the Internet on what to expect in the upcoming second season reportedly airing sometime in 2016. Recent reports are hinting on major human-to-titan transformations, impending deaths and major Reiss family secret reveals. But are we to expect developing love lines between our favorite characters?
Be warned as there are spoilers.
What we know for sure is that the identity of the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan will be revealed in the second season as reported by Movie News Guide.
Also, Christian Today reported that death is imminent for none other than one of the anime's beloved character, Captain Levi Ackerman, with a reason more heroic than tragic. According to theories, this may probably be due to his intense desire to protect the members of his new squad, the Shiganshina Trio, composed of Eren Yeager, Mikasa Ackerman and Armin Artlet. He cares for them so much that it might lead him to make decisions putting his life at stake.
Other assumptions speak of Erwin Smith's demise after the death flag was raised since his supposed execution. However, another speculation suggests that Erwin will take on the responsibility of injecting himself with the serum enabling him to transform into a Titan, complicating things even more.
Meanwhile, "Attack on Titan" season 2 will reveal a revolution, resulting in the unmasking of the Reiss' family secret that they are, in fact, the kingdom's true royal family. Another revelation is that they are also able to transform into Titans, according to Christian Today.
In the meantime, Crossmap confirmed two story arcs for "Attack on Titan" season 2. First would follow the story of the 104th Trainees Squad facing off the Titans after they penetrated Wall Rose. Second, an uprising to overthrow the fake king will also occur, which will be led by Erwin. So, for those aching to know if Mikasa will ever develop feelings for Eren, we just have to wait and see.
Some fans may be patiently waiting for the official release date of "Attack on Titan" Season 2, but for those who can't wait to get their hands on any Titan-slaying action, you can go check out "Shingeki no Kyojin Kohen: Jiyuu no Tsubasa," the compilation movie of the second half of the first season.
