After just shy of 12 years in publication, the Attack on Titan manga is coming to a close.
According to MANTANWEB, the final installment will be featured in the May issue of Kodansha's Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine on April 9. "I said eight years ago that it will be over in three years, but it seems that I can finally finish it," series creator Hajime Isayama said. "It's been a long time, but I hope you can keep up with me until the end. It wasn't stretched by the editorial department, but rather it was my later years when I was urged to say 'when will it end?' I'm sorry, it's finally over. I will."
Published in the United States by Kodansha USA, Attack on Titan takes place in a world overrun by enormous, maneating monsters known as Titans who've forced humanity into hiding by way of cities enclosed within massive walls. The series centers on Eren Yeager, who seeks vengeance after his mother is killed by one of the Titans.
The popularity of Attack on Titan led to an anime series in 2013, which is similarly poised to end with the completion of Season 4.
