#Magazine That Holds Attack on Titan’s Final Chapter to Get Reprint in Japan

In a very uncommon occurrence, the monthly magazine Bessatsu Shonen Magazine will be getting a reprint this month due to high demand thanks to holding the final chapter of Hajime Isayama‘s Attack on Titan manga series. The magazine went on sale inside Japan on April 9 and quickly sold out across the country, prompting the reprint. To celebrate the reprint, the magazine will be coming with a bonus special clear file.

The Japan Magazine Publishers Association reports that during the October to December 2020 period, Bessatsu Shonen Magazine had an average of 48,667 copies serialized each month. It is not know how many more copies will be printed, but they will be sent out across Japan.

The Attack on Titan manga starting in September 2009 and has so far released 33 volumes of the series in Japan. The final volume, the 34th, is scheduled to be released on June 9. Kodansha Comic releases the series in English, with each chapter released simultaneously on Crunchyroll as they came out in Japan.

Anime watchers will be able to continue the journey to the finale when episode 76 of Attack on Titan Final Season premieres this winter.
