Attack on Titan's upcoming 15th anniversary is the perfect opportunity for longtime fans to celebrate the legacy of this iconic anime. However, it's not too late for new fans to check out Attack on Titan for the first time. For fans unfamiliar with Attack on Titan, Crunchyroll describes the series like this:

"Known in Japan as Shingeki no Kyojin, many years ago, the last remnants of humanity were forced to retreat behind the towering walls of a fortified city to escape the massive, man-eating Titans that roamed the land outside their fortress. Only the heroic members of the Scouting Legion dared to stray beyond the safety of the walls – but even those brave warriors seldom returned alive. Those within the city clung to the illusion of a peaceful existence until the day that dream was shattered, and their slim chance at survival was reduced to one horrifying choice: kill – or be devoured!"
