Attack on Titan
by Hajime Isayama
Humanity cowers behind three concentric walls while man-eating Titans roam beyond. When the Colossal Titan breaches Wall Maria, young Eren Yeager swears to destroy every Titan — a vow that leads through military service, shocking revelations, and a moral descent that transforms the series from survival horror into one of anime's most divisive character studies.
