Attack on Titan: The highly anticipated second episode of Attack on Titan’s final season part 3 won’t be released until fall, according to an announcement from the show’s official Twitter page. While the exact release date is yet to be confirmed, fans can expect it to arrive in September, given that the studio only has to work on one episode for the remaining six to seven months. The delay has left many fans disappointed, but they also expressed gratitude towards MAPPA and the show’s creators for their work on the series.
