Hajime Isayama - Attack on Titan Manga

One hundred years ago, humanity was pushed to the brink of extinction when gigantic, man-eating Titans appeared and devoured most of the world. Forced to retreat behind three massive concentric walls, the remnants of humankind have survived in trembling isolation, clinging to safety while living in fear of the monsters lurking just beyond the stone barriers.

For young Eren Yeager, life inside the walls feels like a prison—until the unthinkable happens: a colossal Titan breaches the outer wall, crushing his home and tearing apart his family’s peaceful life. Consumed with rage and grief, Eren vows to annihilate every Titan in existence. Alongside his adoptive sister Mikasa and his friend Armin, he joins the Survey Corps, an elite regiment that ventures outside the walls on deadly expeditions.

But as Eren fights on the front lines, he discovers horrifying truths: about the Titans, about humanity, and about himself. The struggle for survival becomes a battle of ideology, memory, and freedom—one that reaches far beyond the walls and deep into the darkest corners of human history.

Attack on Titan blends apocalyptic mystery, political intrigue, moral ambiguity, and relentless action, forming one of the most influential dark-fantasy epics of the modern manga era.

Hajime Isayama created the prototype of Attack on Titan at age 19. The draft was rejected multiple times before being accepted by Kodansha, who saw its raw potential and intense originality.

Attack on Titan is one of the best-selling manga of all time and profoundly influenced modern dark fantasy, anime culture, and international readership. It has achieved over 140 million copies in circulation worldwide as of November 2023.
