Synopsis of Shingeki no Kyojin
Centuries ago, humanity was slaughtered to near extinction by monstrous humanoid creatures called Titans, forcing humans to hide in fear behind massive concentric walls. What makes these giants truly terrifying is that their taste for human flesh is born not out of hunger, but out of what appears to be pleasure. To ensure their survival, the remnants of humanity began living within defensive barriers, resulting in a hundred years without a single Titan encounter. However, that fragile calm is soon shattered when a colossal titan breaks through the supposedly impregnable outer wall, reigniting the fight for survival against the man-eating abominations.
After witnessing horrific personal loss at the hands of the invading creatures, Eren Yeager dedicates his life to their eradication by enlisting in the Scouting Corps, an elite military unit that fights the ruthless humanoids outside the protection of the walls. Eren, his adoptive sister Mikasa Ackerman, and his childhood friend Armin Arlert join the brutal war against the Titans and race to discover a way to defeat them before the last walls are opened.
