Attack on Titan Attempts to Break Guinness World Record For Largest Comic

10.March.2021 | ANIME&GAME

In the run up to the climactic conclusion of the internationally-acclaimed manga series Attack on Titan, Kodansha is attempting to break the Guinness World Record for the “Largest Comic Book Published.”

 

Kodansha released photos of its comic which features the first two chapters of the manga’s first volume. It’s 6-7 times largest than a regular tankо̄bon manga book publication. On Saturday (March 6), the publishing company released 100 limited-edition volumes which are available for purchase on a first-come, first-served basis. The comic will obtain the record once all 100 volumes have been sold.

The current record holder is Turma da Mônica which was created by Mauricio de Sousa Produções and is published by Panini Brasil. It has held the record since August 2018.

    At the 5th annual Kyoto Ani-Monozukuri Awards 2022, a collection of Attack on Titan playing cards made in traditional Japanese style took the Gold Prize in the Craft Design category. In Japanese, monozukuri means ‘to make something by hand.’   The Kyoto Ani-Monozukuri Awards aims to revitalize business between the anime industry and local companies and organizations. It honors outstanding collaborative products, inviting those with a creative streak to try their luck at designing something uniquely anime-inspired. This year’s awards show saw 157 total entries, with one winning the grand prize, seven winning both gold and silver, and six winning bronze.   Charaditional Toys was launched this year, and the company aims to create items for adults who love anime characters. The Gold Award was granted to the company after judges were inspired by the traditional Japanese craftsmanship and high quality shown in the final product. Made by Oishi Tengudo, a company founded in Kyoto in 1800, the cards were made using classic methods. These 48 original playing cards are like nothing fans of Attack on Titan have seen before.    A second project is scheduled for release in winter 2022, so stay tuned!   ©諫山創・講談社/「進撃の巨人」The Final Season製作委員会
