FUNimation is looking to capture some of the magic of the original series combined with comedy that drives a lot of shows today with the English language adaptation of Attack on Titan: Junior High. The series is one of several getting a Broadcast Dub run while the Japanese version began its simulcast run in early October. The first episode is set to go live tomorrow at 8pm ET and the production for it has been revealed.
