If you are unsure of what a character or image song is, then don't worry! We've got your answers here. Typically, a character song is a unique track that is meant to convey a character's personality. They are often vital to anime series abroad as the tracks give fans a way to differentiate characters in a saturated market. For instance, Frozen's Elsa debuted a sort-of image song with "Let It Go" years back. In Japan, these thematic anthems often rise to top music charts and get incorporated into the anime series themselves.
If you are not familiar with Attack on Titan, then you should know the popular anime is renowned for its intense action and gritty storylines. The anime follows a boy named Eren Yeager in an alternate world overrun by massive creatures known as Titans. These mindless beasts have all but wiped out humanity, and mankind is left to cower in fear behind massive walls. When their sanctum is infiltrated by a slew of Titans, Eren and his friends Armin and Mikasa join the military to help eradicate the blood-thirty monsters. But, as they grow older, they learn that the beasts are not what they appear as long-held government conspiracies make themselves known.
