The premiere date for the final episode of Attack on Titan has reportedly been leaked.
According to NME, an unlisted YouTube video on the Anime Pony Canyon channel revealed that the final episode of Attack on Titan will air on Saturday, Nov. 4. The description of the video — which has since been made private — was advertising an afterparty and special programs celebrating Attack on Titan immediately following the final episode.

While this definitely isn't an official confirmation of the release date, it does line up with the Fall 2023 release window we learned about earlier this year. In July, Attack on Titan teased The Final Chapters Special 2 with a brief teaser trailer and an official description that reads as follows:
"The fate of the world hangs in the balance as Eren unleashes the ultimate power of the Titans. With a burning determination to eliminate all who threaten Eldia, he leads an unstoppable army of Colossal Titans towards Marley. Now a motley crew of his former comrades and enemies scramble to halt his deadly mission, the only question is, can they stop him?"
This Fall's episode will mark the end of the explosively popular anime that began in 2013. The first half of The Final Chapters aired back in March, and we called it a masterpiece in our review, saying, "Attack on Titan returns with the first half of its explosive, apocalyptic finale, and it is better than ever. The animation is firing on all cylinders, the themes are laid bare, the emotions are at an all-time high, and the result is one hour of heartbreak, excitement, and awe-inspiring thrills."
