Now like every other fan, of course, we want more episodes and would have imagined having both arcs covered for season 2 would make the most sense however as with the information we have got that seem to be not the case but just because they haven’t shown us something doesn’t mean it’s not there.

If I’m right about this they could go two ways with covering both the arcs. First, they could release the 12 episodes of season 2 and then release the next batch of 13 episodes covering the Uprising arc later this year or early to midway in 2018 finishing season 2 off. If this is the case then this is perfectly fine as the content and action we will be getting from Clash of the Titans arc will be more than enough to satisfy fans id image. The second option would be releasing the Uprising arc for season 3 in a year or 2 with 13 episodes which may just be the case.

They have stated they have been struggling to work on other projects and meet deadlines with shortages of staff which is why this as taken so long to complete which is understandable and shows they don't want to rush it. However, why not just say that instead of being somewhat silent about it for the past 4 years as this would have resolved a lot of distributes in the fan base and make everyone more understanding of the situation.

Now for my own little theory. In season 1 the trailer only showed content from the first 5 episodes I think and later showed a poster for the female titan arc and etc which they may do for the Uprising arc. The season 1 trailer never to my knowledge showed anything relating to that arc but still covered it which may be the case for season 2. Now linking this to season 2 trailer I think that they have only shown content for the very first 5 episodes I'm guessing taking a similar approach to the season 1 trailer.

Although they may have only confirmed 12 episodes it doesn’t mean they haven’t planned out the rest of it which they may be keeping it as a surprise, however, unlikely this is. In the season 2 trailer with English subs there are 2 points that I think link to there being an Uprising the first being mention of Eren using his hardening ability to seal up the hole which he acquires in the Uprising arc so it would make sense that this be the time they would only mention this part of dialogue once he has acquired the powers to do so which is an odd detail to leave in if they weren't including or planning on doing the Uprising arc.

The second part of the trailer which I may be complete wrong about at some pint they say something along the lines of “She has the decision to keep this information discussed from the public” I may have this entirely wrong but it could possibly be mentioning the while Krista thingy which again I only believe is done in the Uprising arc.

Lastly, I'm sorry if I got anything wrong as I've never read the manga personally and my only knowledge is from the research I have done or watched people do reviews on the manga chapters so I've most likely got everything wrong that I've mentioned so please be kind to me. I would also like to apologise if I've poorly written this as I’m not good at explaining my thoughts down in words so sorry if it's confusing to read. For not having read the manga, you are right on point. JS those quotes were from chapter 37 which was early on in Clash of the Titans oh well there goes my theory still it would be cool like. Part of me thinks after episode 12 instead of doing the ending thing they like they did for episode 25 of season one they will have a preview bit like every other episode. Now that would be cool.
