Attack on Titan Final Season Part 3 episode 1 sub isn’t on Crunchyroll yet

Attack on Titan Final Season Part 3’s first episode is missing in action. Crunchyroll expected the subtitled premiere of “The First Episode” to be available on Friday, just after the episode airs in Japan. But it was not there as of 3:00 p.m. ET, it’s nowhere to be found. The Attack on Titan Twitter account said that the subtitled version of the episode is “currently being worked on,” but gave no time frame for when it might be released beyond “soon.”

Some fans have gotten particularly desperate to jump into the anime’s latest (and technically penultimate) episode, and are turning to a version with subtitles done by Google Translate. Of course, Google Translate isn’t likely to have as solid a grasp on the intent of the series or the dialogue involved as the official version.

Attack on Titan Final Season, Part 3 will be the end of the series, but it’s being released in a very specific and strange way. Rather than rolling out a full schedule of standard-length episodes — like every previous season of the series — MAPPA, the studio that took over for Wit for Final SeasonReleased by. Part 3In two distinct halves each episode will last one hour. The first of these is the one that’s currently late to Crunchyroll.

Polygon has reached out to Crunchyroll for comment, and we’ll update this post as more information about the episode’s release becomes available.
