Attack on Titan: Lost Girls, written by Hiroshi Seko, tells of the times and spaces in between the plot points, through the eyes and ears of the saga’s toughest—but more taciturn—heroines Mikasa and Annie. What they thought, and felt, and did on and off stage come to the fore front via a medium distinctly suited at conveying integrity: language.

The two novella-length offerings were originally included as bonus features in the initial Japanese Blu-ray releases, while the introduction and the titular story are unique to the book. A manga rendering of this official spinoff is slated to appear stateside from Kodansha Comics.

Attack on Titan: The Harsh Mistress of the City 1 is written by Ryo Kawakami and illustrated by Range Murata.

With Wall Maria breached, communities within the Quinta district have been cut off from each other creating famine and chaos. A young field commander named Rita is tasked with a mission to reconnect transit across the massive district while putting her troops and residence right in the vanguard as Titans descend on her town.

Attack on Titan: The Harsh Mistress of the City Novel 2 features story by Ryo Kawakami and illustrations by Range Murata.

Shinganshina has been breached, and humanity has retreated to Wall Rose-for the most part. Quintra District, situated at the western end of Wall Maria, is holding out despite being hemmed in by the Titans on both the exterior and the formerly interior sides.

In this concluding half of this side story, Rita Iglehaut, acting commander of the local forces, struggles to turn her isolated hometown into something of a city of its own. Her draconian methods, however, shock the residents, not least Mathias Kramer, her childhood friend.
