‘Attack on Titan’ chapter 136 release date: Next installment is completed; here’s when to expect the leaks and official publication

“Attack on Titan” chapter 136 has been reportedly completed. This makes it certain that the next installment will be released in early January, and here is when fans should keep an eye on the spoilers and leaks.

‘Attack on Titan’ chapter 136 release date: When are the leaks coming

The Twitter page providing updates from the manga’s editors and creator Hajime Isayama announced on Christmas Eve that “Attack on Titan” chapter 136 is complete and ready for publication. The same post also expresses appreciation for Isayama’s work and encourages fans to look forward to the next installment.

“Attack on Titan” chapter 136 is the second entry to the reported last volume of the epic manga series, so its avid fans might want to keep track of the important dates such as its official release date. The chapter will be published on Saturday, Jan. 9 in Japan, so it is essentially Jan. 8 for fans in the United States.

As for the leaks, they are usually released online — on Twitter and Reddit most of the time — around three days before the official release date. But since “Attack on Titan” chapter 136 will be out at the latter part of the week, it may be best to expect spoilers to be revealed as early as Monday, Jan. 4. So depending on if fans liked the spoilers or want to be surprised until Jan. 9, they should keep these dates in mind.

‘Attack on Titan’ chapter 136 plot predictions: What’s next for the Survey Corps and Warriors

“Attack on Titan” chapter 136 will most likely pick up from the beginning of the war to save the world from this month’s publication. As expected, Ymir and Eren did not hold back in fighting the combined forces of Survey Corps and Marleyan Warriors.

While Eren and Zeke were not present in the battle, Ymir was very capable of commanding her fleet of Titans to attack the humans. Ymir even summoned the previous holders of Titan powers, and in the end, the humans needed to retreat without Armin and Pieck. Their condition is still unknown, and considering what Eren has become even Armin’s safety is not guaranteed. With that, fans are expecting either Armin and Pieck to have some tricks up their sleeves to turn the tables of war in “Attack on Titan” chapter 136.
