s the final season of Attack on Titan airs, some Indonesian fans will have the chance to experience the dystopian world in person at the first Southeast Asian exhibition of the immensely popular Japanese series.
Imagine you wake up one day and, suddenly, a band of giant, human-eating creatures shows up, starts destroying your neighborhood and begins consuming the people around you.
What would people do in that situation? Would they stand up to protect humanity at the brink of its extinction? How would the government handle the complex politics of such an unprecedented global catastrophe?
Fans of the popular Japanese manga series Attack on Titan, created by Hajime Isayama, who happen to be in Singapore or plan to visit the country in the next few months are in for a treat. The ArtScience Museum in Marina Bay Sands has launched Attack on Titan: The Exhibition.
“ArtScience Museum is delighted to be working with SPACElogic and the Attack on Titan team in Japan to bring this cultural phenomenon to Singapore for the first time,” said Honor Harger, vice president of attractions at Marina Bay Sands, during a virtual press conference on Thursday.
Harger added that visitors would encounter the creative vision behind Isayama’s Attack on Titan, which has won international acclaim for its fascinating characters, multifaceted themes and artistry.
