Bryce Papenbrook, Trina Nishimura, Josh Grelle Interview: Attack on Titan Interview

screenrant.com:

After nine years, Attack on Titan is coming to an end. Far from going out with a whimper though, the hugely popular series is going out with its most intense season yet. With more action, shocking twists, and heartwrenching moments, there's never been a better time to speak with the series' three lead English voice actors Bryce Papenbrook, Trina Nishimura, and Josh Grelle.

Beginning in 2009 with a manga series, Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama became an instant hit, earning itself an anime adaptation just four years later in 2013. Part of the series' appeal has been its three central leads Eren, Mikasa, and Armin. Though the trio's bond had been unbreakable throughout Attack on Titan, that finally changed in this recent fourth, and final, season. Now, Eren has basically become a villain, leaving Mikasa and Armin caught between wanting to save humanity and the prospect of killing their former best friend.

Times have never been tougher for Eren, Armin, and Mikasa, meaning the last half of this final season would be particularly tough on the voice actors portraying the main trio. In one of the series' toughest scenes to watch, Eren even told Mikasa and Armin that he actually hated them. With the English dub of the second half of the series' final season beginning to air on February 13th, Screen Rant sat down to talk with Eren's actor Bryce Papenbrook, Mikasa's actor Trina Nishimura, and Armin's actor Josh Grelle to discuss their acting process, their thoughts on the characters, and what it means for them to say goodbye to a series that means so much to so many people.
