Attack on Titan: Junior High (進撃!巨人中学校 Shingeki! Kyojin Chūgakkō?, lit. "Attack! Titan Junior High") is a Japanese comedy manga series written and illustrated by Saki Nakagawa and published in Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine since 2012. The series is a parody of Hajime Isayama's popular manga series Attack on Titan (進撃の巨人 Shingeki no Kyojin?).
The manga has been adapted into an anime television series which began airing in October 2015. A rebroadcast was aired during January 2016.
The story is a parody of the Attack on Titan manga, featuring younger, chibi versions of the characters as they attend the "Class 1-04" at the Attack Junior High School (進撃中学校). The story focuses on their hilarious adventures during the first year at school.
Saki Nakagawa began publishing Attack on Titan: Junior High in the May issue of Kodansha's shōnen magazine Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine on April 9, 2012. A special chapter was published in the May issue of the Monthly Shōnen Sirius magazine on March 25, 2014. The series is published in tankōbon form by Kodansha. It has been licensed for publication in North America by Kodansha Comics USA. The series has been collected into eleven tankōbon volumes, ten of which have been republished in English. In the June 2016 issue, published on May 9, Nakagawa commented that the manga would be ending soon; the final chapter was published in the magazine's August issue, on July 9, 2016.
