“Sasageyo! Sasageyo! Shinzou wo sasageyo!” With this, the renunciation of one of the most famous songs in Japanese animation begins. Linked Horizon has become a symbol for the anime de The attack of the giants thanks to the openings for all three seasons of the anime. With the fourth, however, things will be different.

A few days after the debut of The Attack of the Giants 4, the first information about the anime was released by MAP study. The source of the news is as usual SPY what along with the insider Change the DACannounced the name of the band that will replace them Linked horizon to the opening piece. The rock band will therefore take their place Shinsei Kamettachan, a group that has been working on the franchise since the end of season two, among other things. The last topic, however, is titled “Shock” and is being edited by Andou Yuuko. An hour later, Spy also revealed the staff responsible for the first episode:

Hiroshi Seko will take care of the script alongside Jun Shishido’s storyboards while the episode is directed Makita Kaori. The Chief Animation Director, Daisuke Niinumais accompanied by 4 animation directors: Masayuki Kato, Yuki Kimura, Satoshi Ikeda and Hiroko Komatsu.

This last piece of information is particularly interesting as the number of animation directors usually highlights the health of a television production. Obviously, if the number had been higher, the staff would have needed more animation controllers to meet tight deadlines. Just think of episode 49 in that regard Wit studio Came in to call 15 animation directors, a disproportionate number that sums up the atmosphere behind the scenes that was far from calm. Before saying goodbye, we want to remind you to check out the recap of the first episode of Attack of the Giants 4.
