Probably not. It seems obvious that Mangakas are not allowed to quit when they hit big. They churn out chapter after chapter for years to come.
yeah, dunno why since they can easily cover a season plus more right now.
it's more politics and talk talk talk than titans titans titans right now. if that's not your thing then you might not like it currently.
Followed the manga after show ended and after I got caught up, I lost interest. Monthly iterations kept me forgetting what happened in the last one and any sense of momentum was lost. Having the second season so far away only compounds how long it takes for anything to happen both in the anime and in the manga.

2016??? Come on, dude. I can't wait that long.
Author mentioned a while back his intention was to end it in twenty volumes. Though it wasn't clear if he meant at twenty total, or twenty more volumes from where he was at the time (which would place it around thirty IIRC).
A few volumes after the animes' end were really good, but the last couple volumes have been a bit slower. Not necessarily bad, but it certainly doesn't help that I read fan-translations that are pretty weak from time to time.

in the japanese anime and manga market there is always a "next big anime" thing.
second season is really late with 2016 as a release date. but maybe the movies will help.

Good lord, a three-year gap between seasons? This is getting ridiculous. Guess I'll just keep reading the manga for now. At least Isayama's art is becoming more tolerable.

Hope it does, but man 2016 so far away was expecting it in 2015 :V At the very least, there will be no padding or fillers.
Two live action movies at least are coming... Given that there are tanks and RPG-launchers in the live-action movies, it probably won't be all that loyal to source material.
Considering the show's success and popularity the only thing they'll have to do is offer more of the same. I'm sorry if that is not palatable to you.
Edit: actually... Rereading that again I may have misinterpreted what you meant. Feel free to ignore, I'll blame it on the lack of sleep and being up way too early with a teething two year old.

The Manga is just bad.
Really?I tried reading a few chapters after watching the anime but i couldn't do it due to that art.Really,it's awful and ,according to Isayama's art, Kurista and Armin are the same person.

Now if only the story wasn't so convoluted and accessory characters werent so uninteresting.

Wowza, I expected it next year but given the incredibly slow pacing that's infected the manga as of late, it doesn't surprise me one bit. It would have made for an awful season of absolute nothing.
Damn, thought for sure it would be Spring 2015.
Not sure I'll care anymore by then. Watched the first season on Toonami and it was solid but pretty flawed. Unless there's some big improvements, I don't think I'll be worth waiting to 2016. Maybe I'll just skim through the manta.

yep the mangaka realized he makes huge piles of money from this so he keeps dragging stuff out and writes dumb stuff.
Nope not until it doesn't make money anymore

Likewise, waited far too long already!

Maybe it won't be awful like the first season. Maybe. No baited breath here.
If I remember I heard that they actually did have a end ready because it was meant to be a short series.
Until it got popular.

To be honest, that would have been a shitty ending. There is nothing edgy or provocative by having humanity "lose" and perish. It's just dumb and amateur writing.

I hope this means they are actually using this time to plan out production and get shit done in a timely manner.

Hopefully the pacing doesn't become a mess in the middle again. It seemed like Araki got a better handle on the tone as the series went along, too.
Nah if you were paying attention the majority of it has been premeditated it's just shit comes out once a month, you don't remember.

Man that's so far away. I'll probably forget what happens in season one by then.

I can't wait for all the talks of delicate political subterfuge being compounded by whooshy anime speed lines and dramatic closeups.

I figured it'd be April 2015 and end around where the manga is right now so it'll be caught right up with it like the HxH anime did. Oh well at least we got No Regrets until then.

That's a long time to wait until they get that special place I thought they were going in the 2nd half of the first season.

Yeesh the manga hate in here is abhorrent. Its definitely slowed down on the "titans equal destruction" theme but it's interesting still. I agree that the monthly wait is very annoying.
