What is THE LAST ATTACK?

The Details of the Latest Attack on Titan Movie

THE LAST ATTACK is the latest movie in the Attack on Titan movie adaptations. Like previous movies, it serves as a compilation of multiple episodes, condensing their most important points into a shorter story. Rather than trying to condense an entire season, THE LAST ATTACK is a compilation of the final two episodes of Attack on Titan: Final Season – The Final Chapters. If you aren’t keeping track, it is the final season of the anime.

At 145 minutes long, THE LAST ATTACK begins after Episode 87. GamesRadar summarizes the movie’s plot as,

…an assembled
team of allies and one-time enemies
– including Mikasa, Levi, Gabi, Armin, and Annie – aiming to put an end to Eren’s master plan of The Rumbling.

Essentially a cataclysmic event that will wipe out the whole world, Eren commandeers an army of Colossal Titans and outlines his intention to put an end to the cycle of violence by destroying everything in Marley and beyond to protect the Island of Paradis. From there? Well, that would be telling – but it brings a definitive end to the Attack on Titan saga.


Like the final episodes of the anime, THE LAST ATTACK tells the end of the Attack on Titan story. The original anime first aired back in 2013, so it has been an ending 11 years in the making. The final season of the anime aired Part 1 in March 2023, and Part 2 in November 2023, exactly one year ago. THE LAST ATTACK is a “brushed up” version (according to AnimeNewsNetwork) of the anime’s epic conclusion.

Is THE LAST ATTACK Good?

According to reviews across the internet, yes, THE LAST ATTACK is very good. IMBD has the movie rated at 9.5/10, and MyAnimeList gives it a 7.48/10. While those scores are slightly different, they do hint that the movie is good, and that fans are generally satisfied with what they have been given. The final season of the anime was also regarded very highly, scoring an incredible 8.87 on MyAnimeList, so it is no surprise that the movie is holding its own.


As stated earlier, there is no release date internationally right now for THE LAST ATTACK. However, that does not mean that the movie isn’t coming to your country. The chances are very high that now that opening weekend in Japan is over, and the studio sees that the movie debuted at the top spot, an international release won’t be far behind. Considering how much the movie will be making in Japan alone, they won’t want to miss out on capitalizing on the series’ popularity around the world. Keep your eyes open in the coming weeks for a release date in your country, because it is likely to come soon.
