As Attack on Titan continues to do well on Toonami with well over a million viewers, FUNimation is moving forward with promotion for the home video release which should sell gangbusters – and help to bring out a whole lot of other shows as well with what it brings in. Ahead of that release, FUNimation has a new three and a half minute dub clip giving us more of a look at the world the characters inhabit while letting a few more actors showcase their stuff here. We also get a new five minute interview clip with Mike McFarland (ADR Director, voice of Jean), Trina Nishimura (Voice of Mikasa), Josh Grelle (Voice of Armin), and Matthew Mercer (Voice of Levi) that was recorded at Anime Boston after all the finalized casting was revealed.
Plot concept: When the man-eating giants called Titans first appeared, humans retreated behind massive walls. After a hundred years of safety, a colossal-sized Titan smashes through the defenses, unleashing a flood of giants and carnage in the streets. Eren Jaeger watches helplessly as one of the creatures devours his mother. He vows to kill every Titan walking the earth. Eren and his surviving friends enlist to fight against the insatiable monsters. The future looks bleak, but there’s more to Eren than meets the eye: he may be humanity s last hope against extinction. From the director of Death Note and High School of the Dead comes the series Anime News Network calls an intense, visceral, and graphic thrill ride. The Titans have come to feast. Anything can happen. No one is safe.
