Soldiers who return home and live to tell of the horrors beyond the walls are rare! This list of soldiers from the most popular corps in the human army will highlight the talents and skills of soldiers who were crazy and freedom-craving enough 🙏 to resist fear and accept the facts.

Reiner Braun

Reiner Braun

Chosen to be part of the 9 Mahr warriors, Reiner was completely discreet about his project during the formation of the 104th Brigade. He hardly stood out until he kidnapped Eren and Ymir , thus bringing to light ✨ his true intentions.

Responsibility for the Titan attacks on the Walls was a secret that he, Bertholdt, and Annie had carried, although they had formed friendships within the group. Like Bertholdt Hoover, Reiner was lost in his feelings and convinced himself that the only peace for him was in death. Unfortunately for him, the Armored Titan is not at all the type to let things happen 👊.

Annie Leonhart

Annie Leonhart

Annie, another Mahr warrior, entered the 104th Brigade, already well prepared for the battlefield. As an apprentice, she was at the top in everything 🎖 and had a cold and difficult attitude, and gratitudes and rewards meant little to her.

After working with Reiner and Bertholdt, Annie reluctantly joined the Special Squads to gain more information about the royal family. She rarely expressed any empathy, but her tears in memory of her father 👨‍👧 after a fight suggest that she had a special attachment to this fact.

Ymir

Ymir

After a case of false royalty broke out, Ymir was transformed into an ordinary Titan, it was by chance that she got her hands on one of the nine primordial Titans for breakfast 🥣. Ymir eventually becomes a teammate of Reiner and Bertholdt , but she is not completely convinced by their dream of the end of the world.

Ymir had a close and understandable connection to Historia Reiss; both had been forced to swap identities to produce a sense of stability among their own people. And both had known the life of poor people and kings . Ymir made her attraction to Historia clear in what could almost be called a love letter 💌 , in which she shared some of her most intimate feelings and acknowledged that Historia was the only person who saw her for what she was. she really was and took care of her.

Jean Kirstein

Jean Kirstein

Having joined the training brigade with the hopes of rising in rank in the Special Brigades , Jean constantly found himself in bitter arguments with Eren Jaeger over their different philosophies . John considered the soldiers' tasks as a useless effort, rejecting them even if it meant the death of his brothers in arms 🛡. In his eyes, the fact that Eren rushed to hunt the Titans numerous times was stupidity rather than bravery.

By ranking among the top 10 in the 104th Soldier Training Corps , Jean had the means to realize his plans. After clashing with Eren and his sultry attitude, Jean was inspired to join the Survey Corps.

Zoe Hange

Hange Zoë

The researcher of the group who is responsible for gathering information on the Titans. In a fight, she gives her heart and soul (Shinzou wo Sasageyo!) knowing that a victory in this battle will mean more research topics for her to delve into 🧪. Hange being so intensely passionate about her work , one could see it as a sort of sordid admiration for the Titans.

Hange has a tendency to lose her temper with her studies 👩‍🔬 , but the consequences for the moment are weak apart from a few insults from Captain Levi and the fact that she is strange in the eyes of most of the members of the Battalion (and fans).

Erwin Smith

Erwin Smith

A hero and inspiration to the soldiers under his command, Erwin had a strong desire to find the root of the fate facing the wall dwellers. As a child, his father explained to him that there were inconsistencies in the history books 📚 that were taught to him and his classmates and throughout his life, Erwin sought to find evidence to support the theories of his father.

Even with a severed arm, Erwin insisted on being first in line 🗡 and being able to see Dr. Grisha Jaeger's cave for himself. Until his final moments , Erwin was steadfast, never backing down from friend or foe in his search for the truth about the world.

Armin Arlelt

Armin Arlelt

Although he doesn't think so about himself, as a military genius, Armin saw his place in the Survey Corps solidified quite early in his career. Armin made the call to trust Eren's Assault Titan , leading to their escape after the Pink Wall attack. While Eren's Titan took care of the bulk of the fighting, Armin came up with a plan to get the group of soldiers out of a bad situation and thereby gain the trust of his comrades.

When Mikasa, Armin, and Eren were faced with what amounted to a firing squad☠ , Eren was more than willing to bet on Armin's mind to counter Shadis' mental test.

Much to the surprise of many in the military, as well as Armin himself, when Captain Levi made the tough decision to choose the next Colossal Titan, he passed the torch to Major Erwin in favor of Armin ⛪ . As controversial as it may have been, Armin's value as a soldier was proven enough that Captain Levi entrusted him with a 60 meter Titan.

Mikasa's skills earned her a promotion in the army upon leaving the 104th Brigade, but she never gave up on her primary goal: to take care of Eren and watch over him 👁 . Her superiors often had no choice but to allow her to do what she had promised to Ms. Jaeger , whom she considered a mother, before the Titan Attack on Shiganshina .

Levi Ackerman

Levi Ackerman

A member of the Ackerman family, it is said that he is a product of scientific research on the titans 💉 , this rumor gives a small idea of ​​the strike force available to Captain Levi . His skill, technique and strategy are unparalleled beauty to watch. His mastery of three-dimensional equipment borders on perfection. Often using spinning attacks, with Levi even suspended in the air, no prey can escape his blades.

Levi fearlessly plunges into battle, no matter the size of the enemy, and without flinching. He single-handedly took down dozens of Titans 💀 ; scared away the Bestial Titan, probably the most intelligent Titan.

Eren's Key Necklace

Eren Jaeger

Eren Jaeger

Eren Jaeger's skills as a cadet weren't that mind-blowing. What set Eren apart was his courage and ambition that inspired his fellow soldiers. especially his childhood friends 🧒 Armin and Mikasa to continue fighting against the monstrosity of the Titans. Eren is also the hope given to the Battalion with the discovery of his transformation into the Attacking Titan .
