Season 2 of Attack on Titan is only 12 episodes because the creators wanted to focus on quality over quantity. The shorter season allowed for tighter storytelling and higher animation standards. Plus, it left us all hungry for more!
Blame it on the pacing and production schedules! They had to make sure the quality didn't dip, so 12 episodes it is.
I remember waiting for season 2 and hearing the decision was made to ensure the animation stayed jaw-dropping. It was worth the wait!
TBH, shorter season? They had too many cliffhangers to fit in!
