Attack on Titan, the Japanese anime and manga series revolving around humanity's struggle against the massive, man-eating Titans, is really, really popular.

How popular? So popular that one of its spin-off manga is getting an anime adaptation of its own.

Before you get too excited, this spin-off isn't a continuation of the original Attack on Titan's story or a way to flesh out some of the franchise's minor characters. Instead, this spin-off takes a much more comedic approach.

It's called Attack on Titan: Junior High, and it's a far cry from the dark and bloody Attack on Titan fans are used to. The series features big-headed chibi versions of main characters like Eren, Mikasa and Armin as they try to survive Titan Junior High School. Each character is somewhat of an exaggerated version of their original Attack on Titan selves. Eren is obsessed with destroying the Titans, even if he has to break school rules to do it. Mikasa suffers from severe depression when Eren isn't around and Armin is apparently a sickly boy who wears a blanket at almost all times.

It is absolutely as zany as it sounds. In case there was any doubt, a new trailer for the anime proves it and should give you a good idea of what to expect. One cool aspect of the anime is that the voice cast from the original show will be reprising their various characters for this satirical version.

While it isn't Attack on Titan season two, this alongside the two live-action movies should help make the wait for the next season of the show a little more bearable. You can check out a new trailer for part two of the movie here, but be warned that it spoils a major plot point for those who are going into the movie without having read the manga or watched the anime. The editor of Attack on Titan recently said that the manga has enough story left for about three more years, so fans can rest easy that there will be plenty more Attack on Titan to come.

Attack on Titan: Junior High airs Oct. 4 in Japan, with Attack on Titan season two expected to release sometime in 2016.
