According to reports, the Levi Ackerman statue was supposed to be set up last year but due to the COVID-19 outbreak, it was postponed this year instead.
That’s a really good looking statue.
The design of the statue was based on an original drawing from Isayama, who said this about the unveiling: “He’s the most popular character who has helped sustain Attack on Titan for all these years; I owe him a huge debt of gratitude. I hope he’s pleased.”
And don’t forget that this prefecture alao has the statues of Eren Jaeger, Armin and Mikasa Ackerman from episode 1 where they look as the Colossal Titan emerged and brokenthe whole leading to Eren’s mother being consumed by a titan.
