In the coming weeks, Attack on Titan will have its long-awaited comeback.

And, now, one of the anime’s stars is hinting at a specific Titan’s major role.

Recently, Yuki Kaji sat down for a cast interview to talk Attack on Titan’s new season. It was there that Eren Jaeger’s voice actor dished details about a new Titan who is joining the series. It’s name is the Beast Titan, and the behemoth is as terrifying as it sounds.
When asked which characters fans should pay attention to, Kaji highlighted the upcoming Titan. “Given the information that was released with the PV, I guess there’s the Beast Titan. Like I said earlier, Season 2 has a pretty different image and impact, and he’s a very important character in that respect,” he said.

“The characters that’ve been around since Season 1 adding flavor to the series as team mates and comrades like Connie and Sasha. Their backbones will come to light. Then we have Krista and Ymir. These two will also be portrayed as very important characters.”
