This is an extra manga chapter featuring Levi's backstory.
More story details haven't been revealed officially, but there've been some leaks.
Bad Boy is an upcoming extra Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) manga chapter, scheduled for April 30, 2024. It's said to explore the backstory of one of the most beloved AoT characters, Captain Levi.
What Do We Know About It?
Bad Boy was announced back in October 2023, and since then there have only been some slivers of information about it. We know it's going to be about Levi, we know that the cover features Falco and Gabi, so they'll also be in the story, and again, judging by the cover, there'll be glimpses of the post-Rumbling society.
The upcoming chapter is going to have 18 pages, all illustrated by the author of the original series himself, Hajime Isayama. Some drafts for the chapter have already been posted online, but no further details about the plot followed.
However, there have been some questionable leaks about the upcoming chapter, and they caused quite a controversy in the Attack on Titan fandom.
Leaks About Levi's Origin
According to the leaks, it turns out that Kuchel, Levi's mother, got pregnant from her own brother, Kenny, which makes him Levi's father instead of an uncle, as everyone thought and as the original story stated.
We previously knew that Kuchel worked as a prostitute, and Levi's father was one of her clients, but what we didn't know is that Kuchel had to wear a mask while on the job. The leaks say that Kenny was one of her clients, and it was too late when the two finally recognized each other.
It's still early to suggest whether the leaks might actually be true, but a big part of the fandom sure hope they aren't. Turning a fan-favorite character into a product of incest is a rather wild thing to do.
And yet, it does fit the bizarre vibe of Attack on Titan a lot, that's why we can't be sure that the leaks won't happen. Still, they were revealed in November 2023, and it's been plenty of time for Isayama to see fans' reaction and probably even realize that it's not a good idea for the story.
No Other Official Information
Apart from minor details such as a release date and the number of pages, there hasn't been any official information about Bad Boy. Fans are eager to learn where this chapter's story will really take them and can't wait to finally experience it.
We don't know when the official translation of the chapter will arrive, either, but we hope that some kind Japanese fans will share even a couple of pages with the rest of the world as soon as Bad Boy is out.
