Bad Boy is a new chapter of the Attack on Titan manga, scheduled for 2024.
It’s going to focus on Levi’s backstory.
A couple of leaks have been revealed, stating that Kenny is Levi’s father.
Bad Boy is the upcoming Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) manga chapter, that’s scheduled for April 2024. Bad Boy is said to have 18 new pages and focus on the backstory of one of the series’ characters, and it has been earlier revealed that this character is Levi.
This news was meant to hype the manga readers to no end, of course, as Levi has always been a fan favorite, and learning more about him feels like a dream come true. But some leaks about the new chapter made fans rethink their excitement.
Levi is an incest child?
Kuchel Ackerman, Levi’s mother, worked as a prostitute in the Underground City. The original series claims that one of her clients was Levi’s father, who later abandoned Kuchel and the child, so the woman raised the boy on her own. Kenny is Kuchel’s older brother, and he took Levi in after the death of his mother. However, the new leaks suggest that Kenny wasn’t just Levi’s uncle, but he was his… father, too!
While working, Kuchel would wear a mask over her head to protect her identity. Unaware of who’s behind the mask, Kenny pays for Kuchel's services and the woman gets pregnant. Kenny intends to kill the prostitute the next morning, so as to avoid dealing with the child, when he finds out that it’s his own sister that he’s impregnated. They both recognize each other and understand what they have done.
Kenny suggests an abortion, but it’s not an easy thing to do in the Underworld, so Kuchel leaves the child. And that’s how Levi is born. Being the child of two Ackermans, he’s the “pure Ackerman”, which also explains his immense abilities and combat skills.
Fans’ reaction
To say that the leaks caused a controversy is an understatement. Some suggest that it’s all just a clever “bait” and has nothing to do with reality. But such a plot twist would fit very well into the cruel narrative of Attack on Titan, so there are also those who find the leaks quite believable. The most common response to the new information seems to be “Isayama, what the hell?”, and we can understand that.
No matter what, it’s too early to suggest if all of this is true. We just have to wait for more details about Bad Boy and see for ourselves if the leaks turn out to be real.
