Main characters

Eren Yeager (エレン・イェーガー Eren Yēgā, alt. "Eren Jaeger")
Main article: Eren Yeager
The main protagonist of the series who after witnessing his mother being devoured by a Titan, dedicates his life to their eradication. After graduating fifth in his cadet class, he is swallowed by a bearded Titan during his first mission in Trost.[vol. 1] However, he soon reappears as a 15-meter (49 ft) Rogue Titan who fights other Titans on equal ground.[vol. 1][vol. 2] His ability as the "Rogue Titan" makes him the target of multiple parties that include those who see him as a tool to eradicate the Titans, other humans who can become Titans, and those who perceive Eren as a rebellion-inducing threat to the status quo.[vol. 2,3] Placed into the Survey Corps' Special Operations Squad, he attempts to control his Titan-changing ability and discovers he has other abilities as well. Author Hajime Isayama stated that Eren's Titan form's physique was modeled after middleweight mixed martial artist Yushin Okami.[1][2]

Mikasa Ackerman (ミカサ・アッカーマン Mikasa Akkāman, alt. "Mikasa Ackermann")
Mikasa is Eren's childhood friend who was taken in by his family.[GB p. 36] She is a quiet and withdrawn girl and maintains a stoic expression, except when Eren is in danger. When Mikasa's parents were killed by slave traders, she went into shock until Eren saves her and motivates her to fight back.[ch. 6][ep 6] As a result, she is very protective of Eren, and follows him wherever she can in joining the military and its related divisions and squads.[vol. 2,3][GB p.37] She is the last-known person of Asian descent residing in the Walls[ch. 6][ep 6][GB p.39] She graduates at the top of the cadet class,[ch. 2] and is regarded by officers as an unprecedented genius and prodigy, easily worth a hundred men in battle.[vol. 3,4] In the author's blog, Isayama notes that her name comes from the Mikasa, a battleship from the Imperial Japanese Navy.[6]
Mikasa is voiced by Yui Ishikawa.[GB p.20] In the English dub, her surname is spelled Ackermann,[ep 1] and she is voiced by Trina Nishimura.[7][8] In the live-action film, she is portrayed by Kiko Mizuhara.[4] Ishikawa says that Mikasa cares mainly about Eren, and keeps a distance from the rest of the world.

Armin Arlert (アルミン・アルレルト Arumin Arureruto, alt. "Armin Arlelt")
Armin is Eren's childhood friend who joins him in the Scouts to order to make a meaningful difference in the world, and to fulfill his dream of seeing the outside world.[ch. 84] He initially has an inferiority complex, believing he barely passed the combat graduation exam (but was top of the class academically)[ch. 3], and whining that he hates being cowardly and having to rely on friends all the time.[ch. 11] However as the story progresses he gains confidence in himself and his abilities when he realizes that he can use his brain.[ep 10] Despite his self-perceived shortcomings, he vigorously defends Eren when the Military wanted to fire cannons at them, and brings Eren out of his feral Titan state following the latter's second full transformation where he attacks Mikasa,[vol. 3] Armin convinces Eren to overcome his hesitation to fight Annie. In the military, he impresses the higher-ups by deducing the human identity of the Female Titan.[ep 24][GB p. 40-43]
Later chapters describe him as being intelligent, a talented tactician, a deep thinker with good judgement, level-headedness, and ability to think outside the box.[ch. 82] During a battle at Shinganshina, Armin comes up with a plan to defeat the Colossal Titan where he acts as bait for Eren to capture Bertolt. The plan succeeds, but his body is severely burned in the occasion. [ch. 82] However, Levi saves his life by injecting him with Titan serum, and he acquires the Titan shifting ability after eating Bertolt.[ch. 84]
Armin is voiced by Marina Inoue.[GB p.20] In the English dub he is voiced by Josh Grelle.[9] In the live-action feature film, Kanata Hongō plays Armin. Inoue describes Armin as "withdrawn but slowly grows to the point where he's able to say what he believes".[GB p.20]

Garrison Regiment

The Garrison Regiment (駐屯兵団 Chūton Heidan) are the soldiers that protect the towns and reinforce the Walls. They are the first line of defense against the Titans maintaining a defensive stance.

In the Funimation English version, his last name is spelled Pyxis, and he is voiced by R Bruce Elliott.[12]

Survey Corps

The Survey Corps (調査兵団 Chōsa Heidan, alt. "Scout Regiment"[19]) is composed of expeditionary soldiers that venture outside the Walls. Their goal is to discover more about the origins and source of the Titans, their motives, and weaknesses; ultimately how to fight and defeat them.

Hange also provides the special weapons they use, such as a barrel that fires multiple grappling hooks to capture Titans alive.[GB p.80-81] After Erwin steps down, Hange becomes commander of the Survey Corps in his stead.
In the original English translation of the manga, and in the anime, Hange is referred to as a female.[vol. 5] However, in his blog in 2011, Isayama responded to a question regarding Hange's gender by responding "Perhaps [Hange's gender] is better left unstated".[22] In 2014, Kodansha USA stated they went back through volume 5 and removed gender-specific pronouns they had used for reprint,[23] and references from volume 6 onwards.[24] Hange is voiced by Romi Park in the Japanese anime,[11][20] is voiced by Jessica Calvello in the English dub,[12] and is portrayed by Satomi Ishihara in the live-action film.[4]

The side story Attack on Titan: No Regrets focuses on Levi's origins, revealing that he was part of a band of thieves using the Vertical Maneuvering Equipment to commit crimes before he is scouted by Erwin to join the army. Captain Kenny Ackerman later notes that the capture of Eren and Krista has to do with Levi, whom he refers to as "Levi Ackerman".

He is a renowned medical doctor who was well respected in the District of Shiganshina after he saved the village from a mysterious viral epidemic by developing vaccines.[ch. 3] He also provides a medical house call service to the people of Shiganshina and to various towns in addition to having a network of contacts within the Corps of the Shiganshina district.[vol. 1] Though Eren and the other believed he went into hiding after the fall of Wall Maria, they would later learn that Grisha was more than he appeared. In reality, Grisha was originally a second-class citizen of Marley and member of the Eldian Revivalists who intended to reach the island nation of Paradis to obtain the Coordinate. But he and his first wife Dina were exposed by their son Zeke, punished to be turned into Titans and left to wander on Paradis. But Grisha ended up becoming a Titan Shifter and managed to make a new life for himself in Shiganshina.[ch. 86] During the fall of Wall Maria, Grisha made his move to claim the Coordinate from the Reiss Family and wiped most of them out. Grisha later turns Eren into an Original Titan so he can have his son eat him and become a Titan Shifter himself.[ch. 62] Before his death, Grisha tells Eren that he hid a secret he called the "truth", revealed to evidence of humanity thriving beyond Paradis, in the basement of their family home.[ch. 3] His memories of the event having been fuzzy at the time, Eren eventually learns the truth of his father's final actions and feels betrayed while realizing that the "truth" is connected to the Coordinate power.[ch. 63] While heading to the Orvud District of Wall Rose, Historia comes up with her own conclusion that Grisha had a more logical reason for killing her sister and giving Eren the Coordinate powers, upon realizing what Rod had in mind.[ch. 67] When Eren and his group reach the basement, they learn the truth that humanity is not as endangered as they believed along with a photo of Grisha and his first family.[ch. 85,86]
Grisha is voiced by Hiroshi Tsuchida in the anime. In the English dub, his name is spelled Grisha Jaeger, and he is voiced by Chris Hury.[14]
Kalura Yeager (カルラ・イェーガー Karura Yēgā, alt. "Carla Jaeger", "Carla Yeager")
Eren's mother and Mikasa's guardian. Kalura was originally a waitress in Shiganshina who fell in love with Grisha after he saved her and others from a plague.[ch. 86]. She was in opposition to Eren's decision to join the Survey Corps and tried to get Mikasa to change his mind. [ch. 1] When her town is attacked, she becomes trapped under the Yeager family home from debris of Wall Maria. Eren and Mikasa try to save her, although her lower body was already crushed and she entrusted them to Hannes to save. As they flee, Eren looked on as she is picked up by a nearby Titan and eaten.[ch. 2][ep 1]

But the Wall Cult, unaware of his true intentions, sent Kenny Ackerman to kill Historia, with Rod convincing the soldier to let her join the Survey Corps under the alias of Krista Lenz. Reunited with his daughter, Rod reveals to Eren the truth of how his father made him a Titan before convincing Historia to eat Eren.[ch. 63] But when Historia refuses, Rod is forced to transform himself into a massive Abnormal Titan that burns continuously and threatens the Orvud District.[ch. 67] After being heavily crippled by the Levi Squad and Eren using a cache of barrels filled with gunpowder, Rod is killed when Historia personally makes the death blow.

She was a kind-hearted person, welcomed by the people in the Reiss family's domain, and cared for Historia. She originally obtained the Coordinate at age fifteen from her uncle Uri Reiss, gaining the power to assume Titan form, manipulate memories, and endowed with the collective knowledge of human history. Frieda also taught Historia to read and be a kind person, later erasing herself for her half sister's memory when she wanted to be like her. As Frieda was inexperienced in controlling Titans, she was killed and eaten by Grisha Yeager during the fall of Wall Maria when she and her family took refuge in a church. Rod covered up her death to make it appear to be the work of bandits. As a previous Coordinate holder, Freida's memories were passed on Grisha and then Eren who eventually learned her identity.[ch. 62]
Dina Yeager (ダイナ・イェーガー Daina Yēgā)
Grisha's first wife and Zeke's mother. As the last known descendant of Ymir Fritz, she stayed in Eldia to assist the resistance after a disagreement her family had with the head when he decided to move to Paradis. When Zeke exposed her and Grisha to the Marley government, Dina was exiled to Paradis as a titan.[ch. 86] Several years later, Dina reappears during the fall of Wall Maria, eating Eren's mother in front of him. Eren recognizes the same Titan when he meets it after he is rescued from being kidnapped by Bertoldt and Reiner, and by managing to use the power of the Coordinate for the first time, he commands Titans from all directions arround them to attack and devour her to enact his revenge.[ch. 50] Only when Eren manages to relive the memories of his late father from his life in Eldia engraved into his mind that he discovers that Dina and the Titan who killed his mother were the same person.[ch. 87]

Titans

The Titans (巨人 Kyojin) are the primary antagonists of the series. They are giant creatures that usually resemble male humans in form, although lacking reproductive organs.[ch. 4] They can range in height from 3 to 15 meters (9.8–49.2 ft). Despite their enormous strength and toughness, their bodies are unnaturally light for their size. Their primary objective is to kill and eat humans, as they show no interest in attacking other animals. However, they do not require food or drink. They have hard skin and regenerative abilities, and can only be killed by causing a deep incision at the nape of the neck. They have high body temperatures, causing them to emit steam.[ch. 4]

Over the course of the series, some of the Titans, referred to as Abnormal (奇行種 Kikō-shū), show signs of intelligence. There are humans, such as Eren, who can assume Titan form by possessing the "Titan's power" (巨人の力 Kyojin no Chikara).[vol. 2] This ability is revealed to be tied to a form of cannibalism among Titans where the ability to assume human form is possible by ingesting spinal fluid. The transformation is triggered by a self-inflicted wound but also requires having a clear, specific goal in mind. While in this form, the human's normal body rests in the nape of the neck, connected via masses of muscular tissue.[vol. 2] The Reiss family are later revealed to have the ability to create these types of Titans using a special serum, and control them with a god-like ability called the Coordinate that also affects the memories of humans save those of Asian ethnicity or those of the Ackerman bloodline. A group of figures with the Titans' Power composed of Reiner, Bertolt, and Annie were sent by their leader Zeke to infiltrate Wall Maria to find the one who possesses the Coordinate for an unknown reason, targeting Eren as a result.[vol. 12] While possessing the Titan's Power, Annie appearing to display her availability to command Titans and Zeke also has another ability to somehow turn humans into Titans. It is later revealed that Titans' origins are connected to the myth of the Eldian people and the first Titan Ymir Fritz.[ch. 86]

In addition to the Colossus Titan, Armored Titan, and the Female Titan, the series gives names to the following Titans:

Sonny and Bean (ソニーとビーン Sonī to Bīn, alt. "Sawney and Beane"[ep 15])
A 4-meter (13 ft) Titan and a 7-meter (23 ft) tall Titan captured by Eren for Hange's studies.[ch. 20] With them, Hange discovers that Titans require sunlight to operate, as Sonny becomes lethargic without sunlight, but Bean is still active.[ch. 20] In the anime, Hange says they were named after Sawney Bean, the leader of a clan of cannibals who hunted and ate their victims before the authorities found and exterminated them.[ep 15] Both are killed by Annie Leonhart.[ep 24][GB p.130-131]
In the English dub, they are referred to as Sawney and Beane, and are voiced by Jonathan C. Osborne and Cris George respectively.[ep 15]
Zeke Yeager (ジーク・イェーガー Jīku Yēgā)
A titan shifter who is the warchief of the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan, his 17-meter (56 ft) titan form resembling a big foot-like creature with long, thin arms. Originally known as the Beastly Titan (獣の巨人 Kemono no Kyojin), he first appears in Titan form during the Stohess district storyline when Wall Rose is breached. He surprises Survey Corps leader Mike Zacharius when he speaks in the human language while in his titan form, daintily stripping him of his gear so he may study it before allowing his fellow Titans to devour the soldier.[ch. 35] He can also function at night, and command other Titans.[ch. 35][GB p.135] After Reiss is removed from power, deeming the obtaining of the Coordinate goes above Anna's rescue, he orders Reiner and Bertolt to remain by his side to plan an ambush to capture Eren when he eventually appears to reclaim the city.[ch. 70] After the Survey Corps arrived at Shiganshina and closed the outer wall, he leads an army of Titans in an ambush against them.[ch. 74] Later it is revealed that Zeke is Grisha's son with his first wife, thus Eren's older half brother, and that he caused his parents' exile from the Marley government.[ch. 86].
Ymir Fritz (ユミル・フリッツ Yumiru Furittsu)
A mythical figure tied to the origins of the Titans who lived around 1,800 years ago, mentioned only in fairy tales. In the stories, Ymir became the first Progenitor Titan (始祖の巨人 Shiso no Kyojin) when she made a deal with the devil and used her gained power to protect her people from the Marley government. In time, the deceased Ymir passed the Coordinate on to one of the nine Titan Shifters who created Eldia and ruled for centuries until only two lines remained with the current holder of Ymir's power creating the walls on Paradis to protect his people from Marley's forces with the Reiss family inheriting the Coordinate.[ch. 86]

Notes

  1. Hange's name as been arranged as "Zoë Hange" in the Kodansha USA manga and Funimation dub of the anime, but reversed in the official Attack on Titan Guidebook as "Hange Zoë".[GB p.80] In Japan, the character's English name was spelled "Zoe Hans" as part of a promotional collaboration with Japanese eyewear brand JINS.[21]
