This speculation arises from previous comments made by mangaka Hajime Isayama, who mentioned having a backstory in mind for Levi.
In an interview, Isayama expressed his thoughts on the matter, saying, ‘I have imagined what the story of Levi would be in my mind, but at the same time, whether I am able to output it, that’s a whole other story because writing a manga is a really difficult task for me.’ This statement indicates that Isayama has contemplated delving into Levi’s background but is unsure if he will be able to successfully create a spin-off manga for the character.
