The director of "Attack on Titan" Tetsuro Araki released a statement in 2015 about the anime's sequel, and that "Attack on Titan" season 2 may face a delay because the manga, in which the anime series was based from, must be four story-arcs ahead before the production of the anticipated sequel resumes.
The production delay was agreed upon by Hajime Isayama, "Attack on Titan" manga creator, and Araki. However, recent reports with regards to the series favor the fans, because finally the director of the anticipated anime recently confirmed that the production of the long awaited "Attack on Titan" season 2 has resumed.
According to the report of Crossmap, Araki has officially confirmed upon his interview with the Bessatsu Shonen, a popular magazine in Japan, that the sequel will resume. Perhaps, upon reading this article, "Attack on Titan" season 2 could now be under development.
The confirmation sparked speculations of what the upcoming season of "Attack on Titan," also known as "Shingeki No Kyojin," will contain. According to rumors, "Attack on Titan" season 2 will show Commander Erwin Smith overthrowing the current King. It is because the commander was able to know that the Reiss family is the true royal blood and that the rightful heir should sit on the throne. However, things could be a little shaky as the next season will reveal the royal family's capability to turn into Titans, which would mean that the Reiss family might be viewed as an enemy than an ally.
Another spoiler is the rumored revelation that some members of the squad have the capabilities of becoming a titan, which includes Reiner Braun, Bertolt Hoover and Ymir. It is said that Braun and Hoover were the Colossal Titan (titan responsible for breaking the wall) and the Armored Titan respectively. Ymir, on one hand, is the titan wondering outside the wall for 60 years. She was able to come back to her human form by way of eating Marcel.
"Attack on Titan" season 2 will also be the time that Eren will be kidnapped by Braun, Hoover and Ymir, and Commander Smith would lose his arm in an attempt to rescue Yeager. Fans will also witness the unveiling of a beast-type Titan.
"Attack on Titan" season 2 release date could possibly be later this year, The Christian Times reported.
