The manga was turned into an anime TV series in 2013 which is broadcast in the West on Amazon Prime, and Hulu in Canada and the United States.
The fourth and final series premiered in late 2020 and is expected to air its last episodes later this year, after the manga has concluded.
How far behind is the anime from the manga?
The Attack on Titan anime largely follows the story of the manga, featuring many of the same characters and plot points.
Mappa, the animation studio behind the show, has already launched the first episodes of its final series.
It will conclude the show in late 2021 following the release of Chapter 139.
That should give the writers and animators enough time to adapt to the final part of the story and ready the final episodes for release.
