"Sie sind das Essen und wir sind die Jäger" (please notice the Umlaut) is the catch phrase of the intro music of the famous Anime Attack on Titan. As with many German lyrics in Japanese pop culture, the translation is not quite right. Apparently, what the creators wanted to express is "they are the prey and we are the hunters". However, "Essen" literally translates to "food" and would never be used by a native speaker in this context. A better German word would be "Beute".
