Attack on Titan has really become one of the biggest Anime/Manga to hit in a long time. So much that little more then just a year in a half after the Manga’s launch on December 2, 2011 we’re seeing a spin off series called “Before the Fall”
It will be penned by Satoshi SHIKI (Daphne in the Brilliant Blue, Kami-Kaze,) and drawn by Thores Shibamoto (Trinity Blood) I’m cautiously optimistic to see how this one turns out.
Our protagonist from what I can gather is Kyklop (Greek for cyclops, I see what you did there) a new newborn discovered in a mass of Titan vomit amongst the other body’s.*
Series hit’s shelf’s August 26th.
* Titan’s don’t need to eat to survive and don’t have digestive organs. They simply eat humans until their stomach is full and then vomit out the remains in a large clump, yes it is gorse..
