It was bound to happen sooner or later, right? The wildly popular anime adaptation of Hajime Isayama‘s Attack on Titan manga has been licensed for broadcast, and is set to premiere on Cartoon Network’s Toonami block on May 3.
Yesterday Toonami/Adult Swim’s LICH KING DEMARCO teased the news, telling fans that they would probably want to tune in to the block later that night. Once the announcement went live, we imagine streamers were popped, followed by these tweets from FUNimation and Toonami.
