The story revolves around humanity being reminded about the truth of the existence of gigantic humanoid creatures called Titans, after a long time of living without them. These Titans eat humas without reason or remorse, true monster they are. Because of that, three concentric walls, called Wall Maria, Wall Rose, and Wall Sheena were built, and because of them, human beings are able to live in peace, and many grew up without ever seeing a Titan. But just when the people of the new civilization starts to think of Titans as a myth, everthing changes. The story starts in Shiganshima District where its fall begins when a titan appears after a lightning mysteriously strikes. The titans are later able to break the Wall Maria capturing the Shiganshima District. Smaller Titans were able to invade the district after that.
