If you are a fan of Attack on Titan, then you have already heard Hiroyuki Sawano's work. The composer is well-known with the anime world, and he gifted his musical expertise to Attack on Titan years ago for its first season. Sawano, who has worked on projects like Gundam Unicorn and Blue Exorcist, is set to create some truly epic scores for the next season of Attack on Titan. And, not long ago, fans learned the composer was finished work on the anime's orchestral music.
Taking to Twitter, Sawano let fans know he began work on mixing his themes on February 17th. Just a couple of days later, he returned to social media to confirm mixing wrapped.
"Today was the last day of Attack on Titan Season 2 music mixing!" Sawano wrote. The musician also said the track was a fun one to produce and that more soundtrack details for the anime would be released soon.
Looking at Sawano's composition pages, it is hard to glean much information about the scores he is working on. However, some talented netizens have inferred some information from the composer's pictures. It seems likely that instruments like the double bass, viola, cell, and other string instruments are featured in one of Sawano's pieces. So, as always, fans can expect some truly epic music for the anime's action scenes.
As for Attack on Titan's opening theme, Linked Horizon will be returning with a new song. Their anthemic track "March to Freedom" stands as one of anime's most iconic theme songs of all-time, and the band promises to create an even more rousing single for season two.
The synopsis for Attack on Titan's new season can be read below:
"Eren Jaeger swore to wipe out every last Titan, but in a battle for his life he wound up becoming the thing he hates most. With his new powers, he fights for humanity's freedom facing the monsters that threaten his home. After a bittersweet victory against the Female Titan, Eren finds no time to rest—a horde of Titans is approaching Wall Rose and the battle for humanity continues!"
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.
