Another difference lies in the overall mood. Canon AOT has a rather dark, gritty, and often hopeless mood due to the constant threat of Titans. However, a friendly Titan fanfic would likely have a more positive, hopeful mood. It might explore themes of redemption for the Titans, or how their existence could be beneficial to the world of AOT. This is a complete departure from the doom - and - gloom feeling that often pervades the official AOT story.
A 'historia visual novel' could be about various things. It might be a story set in a historical context, with characters and plots that unfold in a way typical of visual novels. It could focus on a particular era, like the Renaissance or the Victorian age, and tell a fictional story with elements of that time's culture, society, and events.
In some aspects, the ending of the AOT anime varies from the manga. For example, the character developments and plot resolutions might not be exactly the same. These differences have sparked various discussions among fans.
There could be some, but it really depends on the market and the fan base. Since visual novels are a diverse genre, those with a historical focus might not always get the same level of mainstream attention. But in the communities dedicated to visual novels and historical fiction, there may be some well - known 'historia visual novel' titles that are highly regarded for their storytelling, art, and historical accuracy.
There could be various fanfictions. Maybe some that focus on alternative endings, like ones where certain characters survive who didn't in the original. For example, a fanfiction where Erwin survives and leads the Scouts in a different way.
