I'm looking forward to this. I loved that the Ilse one added more Hanji, I need more Hanji because she's my favorite. I haven't read the manga, but if this OVA was about Mikasa vs. Annie would they show abs abs and more abs? Abs fanservice *puts on glasses* also Jeankasa hints with betting his entire dinner <w<

Shingeki no Kyojin is really awesome, I can't wait for the season 2 too.

5 more months... I hope there's also some updates if they're having a sequel of the anime...

I'm hoping its the part of the manga with eren and annie training and also the mikasa vs annie battle.
Yeah, since they didn't spend much time on it in the tv series and the latter was only mentioned in the manga.

Hmm so it seems from the wiki it's about a side story for the 104th trainee corps

Better be a beach/spa episode.
I totally want one too.

Show those girls' abs. They should just make one of those exercise episodes like Queen's blade.


Wishful thinking as the ocean's still just a myth to them at this point.

Must be an original OVA because I can't recall any manga content that could make another OVA what with Ilse's Journal already out.
Still looking forward to it.

Heard it would be something about the 104-th squad, but might be pretty much a fake info at this point.
Anyway, I will be happy to see it, though I would prefer a story unrelated to the Training and Trost Arcs.

Personally, I would like L: Change the World to be an anime adaptation. I know the manga has to sell well. But some of the manga they are animating look like they don't even sell, and are ranked really bad on MAL.


I just look up that manga pretty interesting, its a oneshot manga which makes it even more unlikely of it being animated.


It's a novel. It's popular. It already got a live action, which was really good, but I want an anime adaptation. It's 23 chapters- Not a oneshot. Oneshots are one chapter. I would be happy with a 2-4 OVA, which is probably what they would adapt it into. I would also like them to re-make Karneval into a longer series, because they missed a lot of development between Gareki and Nai in the first couple of chapters.

ok the first I thought u were talking about the ova that's out know.
also what manga do you want animated? for me I would like the breaker new weaves to be animated but that most likely wont happen since it's a Korean manga, u got to remember that the manga has to be doing good in sales before you can even think of animating it, so maybe the manga u would like to animated is not selling too well.....

Ok, "dude" 1. How do you know it's apart of the main story? All it said was Limited Edition Volume 13. It didn't specifically say what its about. For all we know, it could just be them not contributing to the plot. Tsubasalover even said, "The contents has not announced yet."
2. What do you mean by that? Are you saying that studios don't spend money while animating manga? Or do you mean production wise? That's why I said, "they are milking it". Taking the moment of fame is basically what it means.
3. One Piece, Naruto, Bleach and other anime are not relevant to SnK, but yes, I am angry that those are ongoing too. I was commenting on a Shingeki no Kyojin thread, not One Piece or anything.

True, but there are other series that they could spend on animating. I bet everyone has at least one or two manga they want to be animated.[/quoted

dude first this is apart of the main story in attack on titan secondly wit studio is new this is the first anime they have animated. "other series they could spend on animating?" lol dude I guess u don't know business in the anime community. also why are u so upset with attack on titan? why don't u say the same for other studios that create anime like one piece naruto bleach and other anime?

They are milking this series. First Isle's Journal, then re-do the cast for the Live Action, then this. Who knows, they are probably going for another 25 episode series. A bit overdone if you ask me. They shouldn't make all this stuff right off the bat. How about spending money on series that has yet to be animated or that deserve second seasons?


Yeah i agree, but it is true there is going to be a second season. I like having OVAs of SNK but if it was up to me, I would pay all attention to the series to make it even better than the first.
