Act One

True Calendar year 71. In this year, which would later come to be known as the first year of the Third Galactic Empire, humanity was in the midst of expanding its sphere of activity beyond Earth. The development of Dyson Spheres accelerated humanity's progress into space, and 70% of the total population now resides in space.

Transfer students arrive at the Paradis Dyson Sphere.

A spacecraft approaches Paradis Dyson Sphere No. 1, Module 77 carrying five teenagers.

"This is Paradis Sphere No. 1, Module 77. Please identify yourself." Says a voice on the intercom from the module.

"This is GS-2776 flight 21. Requesting permission to dock", came a reply from the ship.

"Identification successful. Docking permitted." The operator responds, "You have two transfer students for Attack Academy on board, correct?"

"Affirmative", the pilot replies as a raven haired youth looks to the front.

Scene change to Attack Academy

Male Student: "Keep going, Eren!"

Female Student: "You got him Historia!"

Male Student 2: "They're neck and neck!"

Male Student 3: "C'mon!"

Male Student 4: "Get 'em!"

Male Student 5: You got this, bro!

Such words and cheers were heard around the school grounds of Attack Academy as Eren Yeager is stuffing sandwiches down his mouth as part of an eating contest against his childhood friend and fellow classmate, Historia Reiss.

Nearby

"How unsightly", student council president Marlo Sand proclaims as he watches the eating contest from afar.

"They're holding an eating contest by way of deciding who gets to use the grounds", says one of his friends matter-of-factly.

"How petty. Am I really in high school?" says Marlo in exasperation.

Behind him Hitch and her two friends walk by. "Isn't it nice? So peaceful." She says and giggles.

Back at the eating contest:

Eren coughs out some of food while Historia pounds her chest

"Eren!" cries Mina in concern.

Not wasting a moment after seeing her friend's distress Historia shoves the final sandwich into her mouth, stands up and points to the sky.

The female students cheer as the males look on in despair.

"You're frickin' useless, Eren"/"I was counting on you dude"/"Thanks for nothing, man", says Eren's classmates as they passively take the remaining food and leave as Eren's best friend Bertolt simply facepalms and lightly punches Eren's shoulder when he sees his friend's embarrassment.

Historia simply smiles and gives Eren the peace/victory sign and pumps her left fist

"I told you I don't want to do this" says Eren in a pouting tone.
