'Attack On Titan' Season 2: How Much Story Is Left? Hajime Isayama Teases Conclusion

When Attack on Titan does return, the series will delve into the story of the Wall Titan. The Female Titan dominated the end of season 1, but leaked footage shows that, in the wake of recent fighting, the secret behind the Walls will come out in spectacular fashion.

Based on Hajime Isayama's Shingeki no Kyojin manga, the series took an extra long hiatus in order for Isayama to put out enough source material to fuel an entire series. That being said, there is a chance that the sophomore run will veer away from the original story, according to Crossmap.
