"Attack on Titan" finale commemorating 7x-sized giant manga wins Guinness World Record

The extremely popular fantasy manga "Attack on Titan" was completed on April 9. As a commemorative plan, Kodansha today launched a giant version of the comic, which is planned to be read by the giantized Eren. The size is 7 times that of a normal comic. The official announcement was recently made that it has won the Guinness record for "the largest comic ever published."

"Attack on Titan" is a comic work created by Japanese cartoonist Hajime Isayama. It was first serialized in the October 2009 issue (the first issue) of Kodansha's "Bessatsu Shonen Magazine" and caused a sensation around the world after it was animated in 2013. The story is based on the conflict between humans and Titans. Humans live in a city surrounded by high walls and fight against Titans that eat people.

So how big is this giant version of "Attack on Titan" comic? Just saying that it is 7 times the size may not be so intuitive, but you will know it by comparing it with the real person. The giant version of "Attack on Titan" comic is limited to 100 copies, 96 pages, and completely imitates the design of the first volume of the original single volume. It contains 1 to 2 episodes of the original work and is priced at 165,000 yen.
