The appeal and evaluation of the first Attack on Titan video bonus "Chibi Character Theater: Fly! Training Corps"

A world where titans rule everything. Humanity, which has become food for the titans, has built a gigantic 50-meter-high wall to prevent invasion in exchange for freedom outside the wall... Eren Yeager is a 10-year-old boy who dreams of a world outside the walls that he has never seen before. Eren feels uneasy about the people who are satisfied with the temporary peace and have given up on going out into the outside world. Eren calls them "domestic livestock." The people see Eren as an "alien." However, with the appearance of a colossal titan that can surpass the wall, Eren's "dream" and the people's "peace" suddenly crumble...

A Flash animation is included as a bonus feature on the DVD and Blu-ray Disc of the packaged version of Attack on Titan Volume 1. This bonus feature is a short animation featuring chibi characters that comically depicts the world of the original work, and depicts the daily life of the training corps in a humorous way.

This chibi character theater is valuable content for fans, as it allows them to enjoy the characters from a different perspective than the original work and the main story.
