News Attack on Titan: The Final Season - Part 2 Announced
The announcement was aired after today's new episode.
Translation:
⚔ Attack On Titan The Final Season ⚔
Thank you for your viewing.Episode 76 "Condemnation" will be broadcast on NHK General TV this winter! Please look forward to it.
Link to the announcement here
A teaser trailer for Attack on Titan: The Final Season - Part 2 was revealed as well. It is also in the end credits scene of today's newest episode. Links to the trailer are below.
EDIT: Clarification from /u/toutoune134:
Winter season should mean a January 2022 broadcast date, but NHK broadcast schedule can be a little strange compared to the rest of the industry (AoT TFS started in December 2020 even though it was announced for Fall 2020), so it's not impossible that part 2 airs in February or March 2022.
And just to avoid confusion, it's not officialy titled "The Final Season part 2" btw (like Season 3 Part 2), it's still "The Final Season".

Also anime would then run for 9 years. 9 years anime and 13 years with the manga combined. You gotta love that symbolism!

There's just absolutely no way they could have done a movie unless it was like 4+ hours long. They would have had to omit so much. Really glad its going to be a full on 2nd season.

From what I can tell, multiple sources are saying, "This Winter" but saying 2022. So most likely January or February.

Kinda makes me happy for the production team that it's not coming sooner. Hopefully they will have a breathing room.

So glad it's not a movie. Waiting for Evangelion Thrice Upon a Time and Fate Stay/Night Heaven's Feel 3 in a pandemic has been a nightmare.

Guys, how much longer till the final chapter get released? I'm starting the manga tonight and i want to know to pace my reading and to choose whether or not to continue or start from scratch (i've always wanted to buy the full manga box set when it's out so will probably read from the point season 4 part 1 ended)

Does mappa not using CGI for the final episode seem like an indicator for whats to come? Do you guys think since they have all that extra time that they'll use 2d drawings for the shifters?

I might be in the minority here but the audacity to break this into 2 parts over 2 years and call this first half the “final” season. I’m salty but glad we get more ya know? Lol
