In the world of gaming, players' creativity often surprises with projects that combine different universes. Recently, a Reddit user known as stan616 (u/a1ndrea) shared an impressive project that unites “Minecraft" with "Shingeki no Kyojin“. This talented player has meticulously recreated the anime's Shiganshina district piece by piece using the game's creation tools.

According to stan616, building Shiganshina District took two full months of dedicated work in Minecraft. “Exactly 67 days and about 500 hours“, mentioned the user. Some commenters detailed the hours spent by stan616 and estimated that this would equate to “8 hours a day for 67 days” or “7.4 hours a day.”

In a 41-minute YouTube video, stan616 detailed his approach to such a large Minecraft project. The video provides a detailed look at all the individual aspects, such as Eren Yeager's house and specific streets in Shiganshina District. Planting all the grass texture took two days, while planting trees took another four days.

This project isn't stan616's first ambitious foray into gaming. Previously, the content creator has recreated several anime locations based on Studio Ghibli classics, such as "Spirited Away" and "Howl's Moving Castle," also in Minecraft. Additionally, the user recreated the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College setting from “Jujutsu Kaisen.”

Fans' enthusiasm for recreating the world of “Shingeki no Kyojin” is not limited to Minecraft. Another passionate user recreated the same scenario in the popular monster simulation game Palworld. Even MAPPA, the anime studio behind “Shingeki no Kyojin,” indirectly acknowledged the impact of the gaming community by using a screenshot from Total War: Empire in one of the series’ most important episodes.

These projects demonstrate how a passion for video games and anime can lead to stunning creations that capture the essence and details of fictional universes loved by fans around the world.
