NHK announced that Attack on Titan The Final Season Part 3 will be split into two parts. As of now, NHK has not confirmed the length of each part, but listed the March 3 broadcast as a ”special”, suggesting that each part may be an anime special rather than multiple episodes. However, this has yet to be confirmed.
With this announcement, Pony Canyon streamed a trailer for Attack on Titan The Final Season Part 3.
The first part of Attack on Titan The Final Season Part 3 will air on March 3rd. Technically, for western audiences this would be March 4th at 12:25 a.m. The second part will air later in 2023. As of now, it is unconfirmed how soon western streaming will begin for the upcoming season.
