User blog comment:Manuel de la Fuente/Attack on Titan Season 2 pushed back to 2017/@comment-96.255.176.246-20160515035559/@comment-5774380-20160515121803

No, that's a false rumor, and in my previous blog post (point 4) I explained why.

Season 1 adapted 34 chapters, and the Clash of the Titans and Uprising arcs which ended almost a year ago have 36; i.e., they have even more chapters than needed for a season of the same length than the first. If there's something to blame that'd be that blatant copy of AoT which they call Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress.

Anyway, we expect an official announcement in a couple of months, hopefully they still announce an October release as it was originally expected.
