Complete Attack on Titan Filler List Guide – Skip Episodes Like a Pro

Attack on Titan stands as a towering monument in the world of tragedy anime series. When I finished Death Note I thought there would be no anime as good as it, but Hajime Isayama proved me wrong and then some.

What started all the way back in 2009, quickly became a global phenomenon that the fandom all around the world loves.

Attack on Titan anime has 89 episodes split unevenly across four seasons. Shingeki no Kyojin has a marginal filler percentage, 6.74% (8 episodes), with 81 episodes being considered canon. Additionally, out of the 8 non-canon episodes, some are mixed so the filler percentage is technically lower than even 5%.
