In a world where anime has become a cornerstone of pop culture, few titles have garnered as much global acclaim as Attack on Titan. Forget “eager anticipation,” the fandom is practically buzzing with electric tension as the calendar flips closer to November 4, 2023—the day we all get to witness the series’ thunderous conclusion in Season 4 Part 3 Episode 2. Let’s plunge into this titan-sized pot of updates—from release dates to cast details to plot teasers—that you absolutely can’t afford to miss.
The Finale’s Release of Attack on Titan: Mark Your Calendars
For those who’ve been carving notches into their walls like a certain Eren Yeager, your wait is almost over. The last episode of the much-hyped Attack on Titan Season 4 Part 3 will air on November 4, 2023. Forget the usual drip-feed of weekly episodes; NHK has decided to switch gears and treat the finale like cinematic gold. Think of it as two back-to-back movies, each lasting an hour.
Many fans are annoyed because the ‘Final Season’ has been divided into two episodes, each lasting one hour, similar to two movies. NHK announced earlier this year that they will be changing the usual way they release the series, which is a big and exciting change.
And if you’re a dubbed anime fan, you might have to wait just a smidgen longer for those well-translated lines. After the Japanese release, the dubbed version will follow in English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, and Russian.
Star-studded Voice Cast: Who’s in and Who’s Out?
As the curtain rises on the finale, the cast remains largely familiar, lending their iconic voices to our beloved characters. Expect Yuki Kaji back as Eren Yeager, Yui Ishikawa as Mikasa Ackerman, and Marina Inoue voicing Armin Arlert.
If you saw the first episode of the final season, you may have noticed that Romi Park might not voice Hange Zoë anymore. This is because the character had a heroic death. If she comes back, she will probably have a smaller role, like being shown in memories from the past.
For the English dub fans, Bryce Papenbrook will embody Eren, with Josh Grelle lending his voice to Armin, and Trina Nishimura doing justice to Mikasa.
The Final Countdown: What’s The Plot?
Prepare yourselves for the Rumbling, folks. Eren, who was once the embodiment of humanity’s fight against the Titans, has transformed into something more ominous.
Eren starts The Rumbling to try and ruin the world. Many giants start walking and destroying everything in their way.
It’s not just about survival anymore; it’s about putting an end to Eren’s destructive path. Mikasa, Armin, Jean, Connie, and the rest of the surviving crew are tasked with the Herculean feat of stopping him. And if you thought the previous episodes had emotional depth, brace yourselves, because this final showdown promises to yank every last heartstring.
Saying that it will be very emotional is a big understatement.

A Legacy That Will Stand the Test of Time
From 2013 to 2023, over the course of a decade, Attack on Titan has evolved from a mere anime into a cultural phenomenon. The intricate characters, spine-chilling plot twists, and mind-blowing revelations have made this one of the most riveting narratives ever put to screen.
So, as the walls (both literal and metaphorical) crumble in the series’ climactic moments, there’s a kind of poetic justice in how this tale of Titans, humans, and the blurred lines in between, will cement its place in the annals of anime history.
Whatever happens on November 4, one thing’s for sure: Attack on Titan’s legacy will endure, as alive and colossal as the Titans themselves.
