Attack on Titan Is Selling Its Official Alcohol Stateside Now
Attack on Titan will release its final episodes next year, pitting the Scout Regiment against a very different version of their former friend, Eren Jaeger. Prior to these last installments' arrival, a new line of alcohol has been released to celebrate the bleak franchise, allowing fans in North America to pick up bottles that honor the biggest Survey Corps members along with a terrifying Titan that had a major impact on the anime protagonists' lives.
If any anime character needs a drink, it's a good argument that the members of the Survey Corps should be the first on the list. In the finale for the second part of Attack on Titan's finale season, anime viewers had the opportunity to witness a past story in which Eren and his friends explored the nation of Marley for the first time, encountering refugees who welcomed them with open arms. Of course, Jaeger himself wasn't able to be as happy as his cohorts, realizing the dramatic steps that he felt he would need to take in the future. While we were given a brief moment of levity here, the peace was quickly shattered as we zoomed back to the present and witnessed Eren using his new status as the Founding Titan to lead an army of Colossal Titans against the world.
The line of Attack on Titan Sake can be purchased in North America on the website Takasan, for around $275 USD, including bottles that pay homage to Eren Jaeger, Mikasa Ackermann, Captain Levi, and the horrifying Titan that had chowed down on Eren's mother in the premiere episode:
Attack on Titan is far from the only anime franchise to receive its own line of alcohol, with the likes of Chainsaw Man, Inuyasha, and Baki The Grappler being just a few examples of the wild crossovers that have taken place in the past. Earlier this year, Tokyo Revengers was a part of a campaign in Japan to help in spreading the word that the drinking age was changing from 20 to 18.
