Based on the title and illustration, this Attack on Titan spinoff actually sounds interesting to me.

When I saw this headline, I thought of Peter Pan's Lost Boys.

And I thought of Alan Moore's Lost Girls. (Warning: you may get some seriously NSFW stuff googling that)

I'm all for some stories told from the POV of the female characters, though Attack on Titan is to be commended for giving them plenty of story time in the main series, too.

Coolness. I can't wait to read, but I guess we'll get more of Annie's back story in the manga.

What will this be about, and will it be pure fanfiction, or will it have stuff Isayama will incorporate into the manga? If it's just fanfiction, I'm not interested. If it'll have any relevance to the main manga, I hope Vertical is paying attention.

If it is fanfiction, then this would be legalized fanfiction.

I'm not entirely sure, but "Extended Universe" is my guess...

considering from the background it will probably be a backstory on both annie and misaka considering their the most popular girls in the series.
