Shonen Jump rejected Attack on Titan because its dark and violent tone didn't align with the magazine's typical themes of friendship, effort, and victory. It was a bit too grim for them!

Hot take: Shonen Jump just couldn't handle the awesomeness that is Attack on Titan.

I read somewhere that Shonen Jump thought it was too dark and graphic for their target audience. Their loss, our gain!
