Attack on Titan: Colossal Edition 2

It does the book thing. I bought it once, and I’d buy it again.

I have loved the Colossal series. It is sold directly through the author and is more cost-efficient than individual volumes, it includes colored features and is well put together. AOT is my fav manga of all time, and this will be my first collection of the series. I will gladly give as much money as I can to Isayama.

This particular book was purchased for my grandson who was trying to find a copy of the one-off comic book "Attack on Avengers" Titan/Avengers crossover. The original, just 8 pages and issued as a Free Comic Book Saturday item back in 2014, is virtually impossible to find. Fortunately, it was reprinted at the end of this book, Attack on Titan Colossal Edition 2. He loves the Attack on Titan anime as wells as the manga version, so this was a good purchase overall. He now wants to collect all of the colossal editions.

I love this book because like other reviews have said it looks fabulous on your shelf. If you're a collector you won't regret purchasing this book. The list price is a little high, but if you can get it for $25-$30 I would say you can buy with confidence. If you have seen the anime you will not see too much in the story that you do not already know, which could be a con for some people considering purchasing this book. It seems the next colossal edition will have the story that will take up the bulk of the first half of season two (whenever that comes out).This book is the same height as the first colossal edition. It reads right to left in traditional Japanese fashion. There are no color pages. The paper is fine quality glossy-white. The cover is a durable card stock. Hope this review helps.

Good quality, I was expecting more additional content, but I don't mind.

I won't waste time talking about the plot or writing or anything here, since this is essentially a compilation volume. The large format of the book definitely works in the series's favor, especially because there's a lot of full-page illustrations and two-page spreads. Reading it on paper of such large dimensions really does feel like a whole new experience.Also, this may just be because I pre-ordered it, but it was CRAZY cheap. Like, thirty bucks, as opposed to the fifty or so that the first Colossal Edition ran me. In other words, you're getting five volumes for the price of three on higher quality, larger paper, which makes the book thinner than five volumes smooshed together, so it takes up less horizontal space on a bookshelf. What's not to love?

I am so pleased with this book. First off, it is, indeed, Colossal. It dwarfs the regular single volume manga, and it weighs a whopping 4.5 lbs. The pages are sturdy and the drawings and text are much easier to read than in the smaller volumes. I will definitely be purchasing the other Colossal volumes in the future.

Book is super cool. But would be a lot better if the product didn’t come all torn up.Little advice, order this alone. This one and two others where thrown into a huge box with other stuff and ended up bent open and damaged. For a book that cost almost 40 bucks, I was pretty pissed.So products awesome, Amazon might mess it up during delivery though, be warned. Then your only option is to return it if you want your money back, I just kept mine and took the loss.
