If someone tries to take my freedom away...I won't hesitate to take theirs.

Our father didn't make me that way. I have been like this since birth.
— Eren to Zeke Yeager[31]
Eren Yeager (エレン・イェーガー Eren Yēgā?) is a former member of the Survey Corps and the
main protagonist and later one the last antagonists of Attack on Titan. He lived in Shiganshina
District with his parents and adopted sister Mikasa Ackerman until the fall of Wall Maria, where he
impotently witnessed his mother being eaten by a Titan.[32] This event would lead to Eren's intense
hatred towards the Titans as he swore to wipe all of them off the face of the Earth.[33]
Soon afterward, his father, Grisha Yeager, found him and gave him the key to his basement,
instructing Eren to find it at all costs and retake Wall Maria.[34] He then injected Eren with a Titan
serum.[34]
In the year 847, Eren, Mikasa, and his best friend Armin Arlert joined the 104th Training Corps. The
three graduated with Eren ranking 5th best,[35] and they joined the Survey Corps following the battle
of Trost District.[36]
After finding the basement and unlocking his father's memories, Eren learned about the truth of what
the Titans are, as well as the history of Eldia and Marley. Eren then vowed to free his home from
their true enemy: the rest of humanity that lives across the ocean.[37]
Eren currently possesses the power of three Titans. From his father, Eren inherited
the Attack and Founding Titans.[38] After eating the younger sister of Willy Tybur during the Raid on
Liberio, he gained the War Hammer Titan as well.[8]

Appearance
Human form

Eren shortly before graduating the 104th Training Corps

Eren is a young man of average height and muscular build. His facial features strongly resemble
his mother's; he has a reasonably long, rounded face and sizable, expressive, gray eyes. His hair is
short and black, and his bangs fall in a natural, middle-parted, curtain-type style. After his training
and during his time as a soldier, he became very physically fit and muscular, although this is often
unseen due to his relatively baggy clothing.[39] After the four-year time skip, Eren grew his hair down
to his neck.
Eren is first seen wearing typical townsfolk attire that consists of brown trousers, a green shirt with
string tassels at the collar, a reddish-brown coat, and simple brown shoes. A few years before the
fall of Wall Maria, he also wore a black scarf, which he gave to Mikasa Ackerman the day they met.
As a teenager, he is often seen in the typical Survey Corps uniform while training. His casual attire
consists of a long beige shirt identical to the one he wore in his first appearance, a maroon sash
around his waist, white trousers, and brown knee-high boots. He always keeps the key given to him
by his father dangling around his neck on a string.[40]
By the time Eren infiltrates Marley in the year 854, Eren has grown visibly taller, and his hair has
grown down to shoulder length. He has a slight mustache and goatee, as well as bandages that
cover his forehead and left eye. To maintain his cover, he wears the Eldian armband around his left
arm, though he had initially worn the armband around his right arm before it got corrected by Falco
Grice.[41] After returning to Paradis Island, Eren discards his Survey Corps attire and begins wearing
a white shirt with dark pants underneath a simple black mantle.[42] He ties his hair back into a bun
and shaves off his mustache and goatee.[43]
Attack Titan form

Eren as a Titan
Eren's appearance changes quite drastically when he transforms into the Attack Titan. His height
increases to 15 m, his hair grows long enough to graze his shoulders, and his tongue and ears
become elongated. His facial features also undergo a transformation; he develops a prominent,
hooked nose, his eyes become deeply sunken within their sockets, and his mouth takes on an
unusual, jagged shape that is unsuited for intelligible speech. Despite this, he is capable of howling
and roaring in order to express his exhaustion and anger. In addition, he also lacks lips and flesh on
his cheeks, so his teeth are exposed.
Similarly to past Attack Titan holders, Eren's Titan form is well-proportioned and physically fit,
sporting a well-defined, lean, and muscular appearance in lieu of the more common pot-bellied or
emaciated appearances of regular Titans.[44]
Founding Titan form
Eren's Founding Titan is drastically different than Ymir Fritz's Founding Titan, or any other Titan for
that matter. Initially, much of the Titan is shrouded by the steam from the Wall Titans, but its sheer
size is immediately noted, towering over the horde of Wall Titans. What appears to be the torso is
devoid of flesh, resembling an enormous ribcage. The knobs of the backbone and ribs are grossly
lengthened; the ribs reaching the ground while the arch of the spine extends far into the sky. The
pelvis and legs are greatly undersized however, seemingly useless. Despite this, they are still taller
than any Wall Titan. [45]

The upper body seems proportional with the legs, meaning that they are dwarfed by the "ribcage"
(although it is revealed that the "ribcage" arose from the lower back). The head is the only part of the
body with much flesh, although it is significantly deformed: both the ears and hair are greatly
elongated; the cheeks are missing, exposing the molars; and the bottom jaw is nearly bare, only the
lips and chin being present. Like a puppet, the upper body is suspended by sinew, supported by the
vertebral knobs like a suspension bridge. Inside the Titan, Eren's head is disconnected from his
torso; having been decapitated and rejoined by Ymir's power, it is connected by additional vertebrae
to what presumably is his body. Some sinew supports his scalp.

The Titan walks with its "ribcage", undulating the ribs like a millipede's legs. It is fast enough to keep
within view of the Rumbling.[46]
Pure Titan form
Eren's Pure Titan form was much shorter than his current Titan form. It was 4 m[11] tall with short,
rugged hair and a jagged, lipless mouth that exposed his teeth. His Pure Titan form also had a big
head, elongated ears, and an overall stocky build.
Personality

Eren expresses his desire to kill the Titans

Eren is best described as hardheaded, strong-willed, passionate, and impulsive, which are attributes
of both his strong determination to protect mankind and, eventually, his equally strong determination
to escape the Walls. Even as a young child, he was so intent on joining the Survey Corps that he
argued with and shouted at his mother, referring to the people in the village as "silly" and comparing
them to complacent livestock.[47]
Eren cares deeply for his friends and family, risking harm and even death in order to protect them.
As a child, he took on larger boys who bullied Armin Arlert and, more tragically, he attempted to lift
the rubble that crushed his mother during the Titans' assault in Shiganshina.[48] Eren is also capable
of displaying violent behavior in defense of people he does not even know. This was highlighted
when he attempted to rescue Mikasa Ackerman by brutally slaughtering two of the human
traffickers who had captured her.[49]
After Armin showed Eren a book depicting the wonders of the outside world, he grew to share his
friend's curiosity of the world beyond the Walls and decided to see it for himself.[50] This led Eren to
develop a scornful attitude towards anyone who was content to live and die within the Walls'
confines without ever setting foot outside. As a result of this, he greatly admired the soldiers of the
Survey Corps, regarding them as "heroes" and wishing to join their ranks as soon as he became
eligible for enrollment. He was quick to take offense when anyone spoke badly of the Corps, and his
determination to join them caused friction between himself, his mother, and to a lesser extent,
Mikasa.[51]
Eren has a marked lack of self-restraint that often leads him into trouble, causing his friends and
family to worry about him.[52] His limited self-control is evident in his temper, which often caused him
to act recklessly in anger, or say things he himself knew he should not have. This is exacerbated by
his tendency to view the world in terms of black and white, where individuals who deny others their
freedom are worthless scum, unfit to be left alive.[53] Though he has great compassion, Eren has
little in the way of empathy and is prone to taking things at face value, evaluating situations or ideas
solely by his own arbitrary perspective and rarely ever thinking deeper about them unless someone
else points things out for him.[citation needed]
Though Eren spoke about eradicating the Titans with seemingly great confidence, his bravado hid
deep insecurities. He was often ready to blame himself and his incompetence whenever something
went wrong, believing a course of action he took - or failed to take - was the reason for the
disastrous results. This is most evident when he blames himself for the death of the Special
Operations Squad at the hands of the Female Titan, and for the deaths of the many veterans that
perished in the rescue operation after he had been kidnapped by Reiner Braun and Bertolt Hoover.

Eren asks Historia to eat him and save humanity

Eren's ordeals since the coup d'état have mellowed his personality considerably. When he
discovered the truth about where his father had been the night Wall Maria fell, he was willing to
ask Historia Reiss to eat him for the good of humanity.[54] He admitted that he viewed himself as
weak, and that his reliance on the Attack Titan proved it. It took a lot of encouragement from his
friends for him to overcome this state of despair and regain his passion.
By the time he finds out from his father's books that Titans are actually humans who were forced to
transform by the Marleyan Government, he seems to have let go of his hatred against them. When
passing by a slow-moving Titan en route to the ocean, he shows no signs of anger or unrest, and
instead calmly calls the Titan an "Eldian."[55]
Eren possesses great amounts of perseverance, fortitude, and determination. As such, he managed
to master the basics of vertical maneuvering equipment, even when his equipment was
damaged,[56] and graduate as fifth top student in his class despite his lack of natural talent.[57]
Eren has been noted to be quite charismatic and has a talent for delivering impassioned speeches,
often unwittingly managing to persuade the mass of his listeners to sympathize with his point of
view. Even Jean Kirstein, his bitter rival, has admitted this, as he convinced over half a dozen
recruits to consider joining the Survey Corps before the Battle of Trost.[58] Four years later, he
makes use of this skill consciously, as shown when he easily lifts Falco's spirits and convinces him
to deliver a letter outside of Liberio, despite the fact that Eldians are usually forbidden from leaving
the internment zone.[59]
Eren figures out the true location of the War Hammer Titan
In the years since the recovery of Shiganshina, Eren has shown remarkable progress in his
analytical and tactical skills, both in and outside of battle. Apart from maintaining his cover as a
Marleyan soldier for an extended period of time and procuring a method of transporting his letters to
the Survey Corps, Eren accurately guesses the source of Falco Grice's injuries and the reason why
he wanted to become the next Armored Titan.[60] Later on, he successfully leads Reiner into a trap,
and in his battle against the younger sister of Willy, he quickly deduces the true location of the War
Hammer Titan.[61] When he is unable to crack the crystal encasing her with his Attack Titan's jaws,
he is resourceful enough to use the Jaw Titan's jaws as an improvised nutcracker to kill her and
obtain the War Hammer Titan.[62]
Eren is aided in this by his unnervingly stoic and calm demeanor he developed since infiltrating
Marley, never losing his composure and usually wearing a blank expression on his face, no matter
how dire or stressful the situation may be. Although he admits to becoming angry
when Koslow traumatized Eldian soldiers, he remains outwardly unfazed during the incident.
Additionally, he appears to have become less proud overall, thanking Mikasa for helping him, which
he normally used to dislike and criticize her for.[63]
His infiltration of Marley has given him a change in perspective regarding his enemies. After
spending time as a Marleyan soldier, he comes to understand that his enemies are people no
different from his own. Because of this, he deeply empathizes with Reiner and the
other Warriors who were sent to Paradis Island, letting go of his desire to kill them in revenge for
attacking his home and stating that they are simply victims. Nevertheless, he still prioritizes his
personal mission of destroying Paradis' enemies for the sake of his people's freedom,[64] regardless
of how many lives are lost on either side. Furthermore, this personal mission has driven him enough
that he unleashes all of the Wall Titans and declares he will trample the entire world to exterminate
all life outside of the island.[65]

Eren collapses a building with Eldian families inside

Eren believes that righteous goals sometimes require unethical means. He is ready and willing to
use such methods himself when he declares war against Marley. Eren abuses the twelve-year-old
Falco's trust, fully aware of his family's precarious situation, and eventually kills dozens of innocent
Eldian civilians (including children) as collateral damage in a surprise attack on Willy Tybur.[66]
In spite of this, he seems to have developed a dislike for war, referring to it as "hell." He believes
that, with good reason, no one would want to go to war if they knew the suffering it would put them
through.[67]
Eren's time-serving in the Marley Mid-East War also seems to have had an effect on his psyche to
some extent. While he has shown great sorrow for comrades who have died on expeditions,[68] and
has demonstrated a great amount of compassion for his fellow graduates from the 104th,[69] he
laughs upon hearing that Sasha Blouse's final words were "meat;" although he changes his reaction
and is seen about to cry after Jean Kirstein accuses him of being responsible for her death and
remembers Sasha's conviction that they would have more sheep and cows after recovering Wall
Maria.[70]

It is later revealed that Eren knew the future via the Attack Titan's ability and has been spiraling
down a state of depression, knowing what the inevitable outcome of the present will be. While he
does wish for a peaceful solution, he understands the impossibility of it better than all around him,
even Armin.

History

Carla held a baby Eren

Eren was born in Shiganshina District on March 30th, 835, in the southern region of Wall
Maria to Carla Yeager and Grisha Yeager. He had a few friends, although his best friend was Armin
Arlert, whom he often defended from the neighborhood bullies. Armin inspired his passion to leave
the Walls and travel by showing him a hidden book about the outside world. He dreamed of joining
the Survey Corps as soon as he reached the enlistment age, in order to see the outside world.
Because of this dream, Eren and Armin were frequently regarded as heretics and harassed
constantly by other children.
When Eren was nine years old he accompanied his father on a house call to the Ackerman
family's house only to find both parents murdered and their daughter Mikasa missing. Fearing the
worst, Dr. Yeager instructed Eren to stay within the house while he fetched the Military Police. Eren,
however, tracked the robbers to a small cabin in the forest behind the house.[71]
Eren saved Mikasa from the robbers
Thinking quickly, Eren feigned distress and claimed that he was lost. As one of the robbers
approached Eren, he pulled out a hidden knife and stabbed the man. As the second man went after
him with an axe, Eren charged him with a makeshift spear, piercing him in the shoulder. Once he
was down, Eren proceeded to stab him to death in a wild frenzy while Mikasa looked on.

As Eren untied her in the aftermath, he was caught off-guard by a third robber, who proceeded to
strangle him. Eren urged Mikasa, who was frozen in fear, to fight back, warning her that they would
both be killed if she did nothing. As Eren began to lose consciousness, Mikasa finally lost all
inhibition and lunged at their attacker, stabbing him through the heart and killing him.

Eren gave Mikasa his scarf

When Dr. Yeager eventually returned with the MPs, he took Eren aside, scolding him angrily for his
reckless behavior. While Eren was genuinely sorry for upsetting his father, he expressed no remorse
whatsoever for killing the robbers. When Mikasa remarked that she was cold, Eren gave her the
scarf from his own neck; and when Dr. Yeager invited Mikasa to live with their family from then on,
Eren accepted her with no hesitation, tugging on her sleeve and shyly insisting that they return
home.[72]
Story
Fall of Shiganshina arc

Grisha promises to show Eren the basement

After Eren is woken from a nightmare by Mikasa, the two walk home through Shiganshina. They are
harassed by Hannes, who begins teasing Eren for having apparently cried in his sleep. Eren is
annoyed to see that Hannes and his friends are slacking off on the job and refuses to be placated by
their claims that the Titans will never breach Wall Maria.[73] Leaving Hannes behind, the children
stop again to watch the Survey Corps return from an expedition and Eren is crestfallen to see that
the Corps has returned defeated.
Upon returning home, Mikasa reveals to Eren's mother that he wants to join the Survey Corps. Carla
forbids him from joining due to the Corps' high mortality rate and begs Grisha to talk some sense into
his son. Grisha ignores her objections and instead announces that he will be leaving for a few days
on a trip, promising Eren that when he gets back he will show the boy what he has hidden in the
basement of their home. Enthralled, Eren joins his mother and Mikasa in waving him off. Carla
reminds him that she will not allow him to join the Survey Corps, and they exchange a heated
argument before he runs off.[74]

Eren, Mikasa, and Armin see the Colossus Titan

Eren and Mikasa scare off bullies harassing Armin and the three stroll through Shiganshina and
settle by the riverbank. Armin deduces that Eren's parents found out he wants to join the Survey
Corps before criticizing the widespread belief that it is impossible for the Titans to breach the
Walls.[75] Suddenly lightning strikes, and an earthquake breaks out. The three gather in the center of
the district with other civilians, where they all gawk in horror at the sight of a Titan larger than Wall
Maria. The Titan kicks a hole through Wall Maria's gate, sending massive pieces of debris
throughout the town.[76]

Eren watches in horror as his mother is eaten by a Titan

Eren and Mikasa hurry home as Titans begin entering the district, arriving to find their house crushed
by a large rock and his mother trapped beneath the rubble. As Eren tries to help her, a Titan begins
approaching the collapsed house. Hannes arrives, intending to fight off the Titan, but is overcome by
fear. Rather than fight the Titan, he takes Eren and Mikasa to safety and abandons Carla.[77]
Hannes leaves Eren and Mikasa on a boat leaving the Titan-infested city. There, Eren and Mikasa
witness an Armored Titan destroying the back gate of Shiganshina. As Eren realizes that he can
never return home, he vows to kill every Titan in existence.[78]
Eren, along with Mikasa and Armin, are sent to a shelter for refugees from Wall Maria. Soon after,
Grisha arrives and finds Eren, who tells him that his mother was eaten.[79] After hearing this, Grisha
takes Eren into a nearby forest and instructs him to go to the basement; before Eren can react,
Grisha injects him with a Titan serum, turning Eren into a mindless Titan. Eren instinctively eats his
father, receiving his Titan powers, including the dormant Founding Titan.[80]
104th Training Corps arc
After the fall of Wall Maria, Eren, Mikasa, and Armin briefly worked on a farm with other survivors of
Wall Maria before reaching the proper age to enroll in the Military two years later.[81] During the
104th's rite of passage conducted by instructor Keith Shadis, Eren is ignored alongside others who
have clearly experienced trauma in their past.[82]

Eren fights with Jean

Before training, Eren draws a crowd of trainees at dinnertime, describing the appearance of the
Colossus and Armored Titans. He becomes sick as he remembers his mother being eaten, but when
questioned he attributes it to eagerness to begin his training and kill all the Titans with the Survey
Corps. Jean Kirstein interrupts Eren and mocks his decision.[83] Eren does not admire Jean's desire
to join the Military Police simply to live in the Interior Walls and the two prepare to fight each other.
The bell signaling the end of dinner rings breaking the tension and the two drop their disagreement
with each other.[84]
The next day, the trainees begin practicing with vertical maneuvering equipment. Eren utterly fails to
keep himself steady and takes extra tutoring from Armin and Mikasa. He knocks himself out and at
dinner, other trainees mock his performance especially after his pledge to kill all Titans.[85]

Eren finally balances with vertical maneuvering equipment

Back at the dorm, Connie and Jean do not offer any suggestions and Eren visits Reiner
Braun and Bertolt Hoover for help. Although they are reluctant at first, the group bonds over their
similar experiences during the fall of Wall Maria. The three exchange tips and depart as friends.[86]
Instructor Shadis gives Eren one last chance to pass his maneuvering equipment test before he will
be shipped to the landfills. At first, it appears Eren can maintain his balance but Eren quickly loses
control and falls over. Shadis has Eren switch equipment with Thomas Wagner and Eren finds that
he is able to easily balance himself and Shadis reveals that the equipment he had been training with
was defective.[87]

During hand-to-hand combat training, Eren admits to Reiner that he finds it unnecessary, claiming
that it would be much wiser to run away when attacked by another human than to engage them.
Reiner reprimands him for his attitude and points Eren to Annie, who is also slacking off. Egged on
by Reiner, Eren tries to attack Annie with his mock knife to punish her for slacking off and is quickly
disarmed by her unconventional fighting style. She makes short work of Reiner and Eren, enthralled
by Annie's proficiency, asks to know who trained her. He is taken aback when she begins to lecture
him on the military's flaws, pointing out that it awards its most talented trainees with positions far
away from the Titans, where their skills would be most useful.

Annie's words continue to bother Eren, who becomes annoyed at the idea of trainees trying to
improve their skills just to stay away from the Titans. Eren confronts Jean for possessing such a
mentality, which leads to a physical altercation between the two. Eren easily ends the fight by
replicating Annie's moves and proceeds to lecture Jean for slacking off during his training.[88]

Eren confides to Reiner

At one point during training, Eren takes a bad spill while using his vertical maneuvering equipment.
Frustrated, Eren asks Reiner for advice at improving and Reiner tells Eren that the only thing to do is
to just keep moving forward.[89]
In 850, Eren graduates in the top 10 of the 104th Training Corps.[35] After graduation, he is assigned
to clean the cannons atop Wall Rose with Sasha, Connie, and a few others. There they witness the
return of the Colossus Titan, who has not been seen in the last five years. Eren faces the Titan alone
in combat as his fellow trainees can all but look on in horror.[90]
Battle of Trost District arc

Eren inside a Titan's mouth

While his fellow trainees are paralyzed in fear at the sight of the Colossus Titan, Eren attempts to kill
it. Despite getting close enough to the Titan to nearly slice the nape of its neck, it vanishes into thin
air.[91] Reinforcements arrive and Eren's team is ordered to return to the military's headquarters for
orders.

After resupplying at the headquarters, Eren and Armin are assigned to a squad together as part of
Trost's middle guard. Mikasa is unhappy to be assigned to a different squad, but she assents when
Eren berates her for not obeying orders.
Despite their nerves, Eren's squad enters the battle in high spirits, viewing the upcoming battle as an
opportunity to prove their mettle as soldiers before they enter the Survey Corps. However, things
immediately take a turn for the worst when Thomas Wagner is devoured. Enraged, Eren tries to kill
the Titan, only to be incapacitated by a second Titan biting off his leg. Eren regains consciousness
just in time to save Armin from being eaten, being swallowed himself in the process.[92]
In the stomach of the Titan, Eren comes across the dead or dying soldiers who were devoured by
the Titan. As he remembers his goal to kill every last Titan alive, his anguish triggers his first
transformation into his Attack Titan form. Bursting out of the Titan that devoured him, he proceeds to
wreak havoc on all the Titans he finds. In the process, he unknowingly saves Mikasa’s life from
another Titan and is baited by Armin, Connie, and Mikasa to help fend off a procession of Titans
from a storage headquarters for the compressed gas used to power their maneuvering gear.

Eren appears out of the Titan

Eventually, Eren appears to run out of energy and begins to be overwhelmed by the Titans. The
sight of the Titan that killed Thomas proves to be enough to drive Eren to throw off the Titans holding
him down and kill the Titan by biting its nape off. As soon as the massacre is over, Eren falls to the
ground and his human form emerges from the back of his Titan form’s neck, to the shock of all the
onlookers. He is retrieved by an overwhelmed Mikasa.
When he regains consciousness, Eren finds himself cornered with Armin and Mikasa by a hostile
military force which has decided to execute him as a possible threat due to his powers. Due to his
hazy memories of what happened during the battle Eren is unable to answer their questions
satisfactorily and they fire a cannon at him and his friends. Eren instinctively grabs onto his two
friends and bites his own hand, partially transforming into a Titan and blocking the cannonball with
the Titan's hand.[93] While the cannon is being reloaded, Eren reveals to Mikasa and Armin that he
intends to use his power to go over the wall and try to reach his father's basement on his own.
Mikasa and Armin both protest the decision and Eren tells them that he will stay behind if Armin can
convince the amassed soldiers not to kill him.

Eren attacks Mikasa

Armin's plea falls on deaf ears among the soldiers who have cornered them, but the trio is saved by
the arrival of Commander Dot Pixis, who intervenes on their behalf.[94] Pixis takes the three to the
top of Wall Rose and questions Eren personally. Eren's answers satisfy Pixis and the man
calls his subordinates to help devise a plan to retake Trost with Eren's powers. A plan is made for
Eren to use his Titan form to reseal Trost's gate with a boulder that is in the middle of the district.
Upon his transformation to execute the plan, Eren loses control and attacks Mikasa before
inadvertently rendering himself unconscious. When his body fails to regenerate, the mission is
declared a failure. Armin arrives on the scene and convinces Mikasa to go help fend off the Titans
while he tries to get through to Eren. Armin manages to rouse Eren slightly by stabbing into his
Titan's nape and piercing his human body. Armin manages to bring Eren back by reminding him of
their desire to see the world together, causing Eren to remember how he wanted to join the Survey
Corps and destroy all the Titans. Eren moves the stone and is able to plug the hole in the Wall at the
sacrifice of the rest of the team members, with the exception of Rico, Armin, and Mikasa. They are
saved from the desperate situation after Eren’s transformation back to human by Levi Ackerman.

Nile discusses dissecting Eren

After the events of Trost, Eren is placed in the custody of the Military Police and kept chained in a
dungeon prison cell in the Royal Capital beneath a courtroom. While he is there, he is paid a visit by
Commander Erwin Smith and Levi. Upon hearing his motive to kill Titans, Levi says he will accept
him into the Survey Corps.[95] Eren is left there for some time before being escorted by Corps
members to the courtroom where he was tried, with Darius Zackly preceding over events.
During his trial, the Military Police and Church of the Walls call for his dissection and execution while
the Survey Corps, argues in favor of using his power to their advantage in scouting missions. After
an outburst by Eren, Levi savagely beats him to prove that Eren will not pose a threat to him. It is
decided his fate will be decided after a “test” mission with the Survey Corps. Afterward, Erwin thanks
him for his cooperation.[96]

The Female Titan arc

After joining the Survey Corps, Eren is assigned to Levi's Special Operations Squad and sent to an
abandoned castle which had formerly served as the base of operations for the Survey Corps. While
there, he is tasked with cleaning duty by Levi[97] while also helping Squad Leader Hange Zoë with
their Titan experiments.[98]
Squad Levi surrounds Eren after his partial transformation
During one of the experiments with his Titan abilities, Eren is lowered into a well before being told to
transform into a Titan, in case he loses control. However, Eren is unable to activate his Titan
abilities.[98] He is eventually brought back to the surface and has his wounds tended to by Levi's
squad. Later, whilst bending over to pick up a dropped spoon with his injured hand, Eren
accidentally triggers his Titan ability in a partial transformation, creating a Titan hand in a small
explosion.[99]
Levi's squad surrounds Eren, demanding that he prove he is not a threat to them, and the situation
has to be defused by Levi and Hange. After the incident, with the help of Hange's deductions, Eren
learns that a Titan transformation requires him to have a clear goal in mind in addition to self-
injury.[100]
Eren meets some of his classmates from the 104th Training Corps who have opted to join the
Survey Corps. He learns of Marco's death from Jean, who lectures him about his responsibilities to
humanity.[101]

Eren hears Gunther's explanation of the formation

After a month of training, Eren and the Survey Corps embark on the 57th Expedition Outside the
Walls. During the expedition, Eren is positioned at the center of the Long-Distance Enemy Scouting
Formation, where it is the safest. However, per Erwin's orders, the knowledge of Eren's location
within the formation is given only to a select few while the rest of the soldiers are given false
information in order to misdirect any spies within their midst.[102][103]
It soon becomes apparent that something is going wrong with the expedition. Squad Levi receives
the news of the decimation of the right wing of the formation and see black flares signaling the
presence of an Abnormal in close proximity, even though their position should be safest.[104] Soon
after, the soldiers head toward a Titan Forest. The central column of the scouting force, including
Eren and Levi's squad, are told to enter the forest while the rest of the soldiers stand guard at the
perimeter of the forest to prevent any Titans from entering.[105]
The Female Titan chases Squad Levi
After entering the forest Squad Levi is set upon by a seemingly intelligent Female Titan, who is able
to dispatch pursuing soldiers with ease. Seeing the soldiers perish one by one, Eren is tempted to
use his Titan power to save them. Levi gives him permission, but Eren decides to trust in his team
after recalling the trust they have had in him.[106][107]
As the Titan approaches the squad, it is caught in an ambush set up by Erwin. Eren and the rest of
his team excluding Levi ride out of the forest firm in the belief that the Titan was captured and her
human self apprehended.[108] The squad stands by and discuss Erwin's decision not to tell the
soldiers about the plan while Levi consults with the commander. Eren wonders why is it that not
even the elite soldiers were told about it, angering Oluo and Petra. Eld agrees with Eren, stating that
Erwin must have had a reason. Remembering the odd question Erwin asked them when Sonny and
Bean were killed, they realize that if they had answered correctly they would probably be trusted
enough to be let in on the operation.
Seeing a flare that indicates the Corps is retreating, the squad begins making their way out of the
forest. They notice another signal flare fired in response, believing it to be Levi's. However, the
mysterious soldier kills Gunther and then transforms into the Female Titan to resume her pursuit of
Eren.[109] The remaining three team members tell Eren to go on while they attack the Female Titan.
Eren agrees to retreat but regrets his decision when the Titan manages to overpower and kill them.
Filled with regret, Eren transforms and engages the Female Titan.[110]

Eren roaring at the Female Titan

Even though he initially had the upper hand against the crippled Female Titan, Eren quickly expends
all of his energy and ultimately loses the fight.[111] His human form is eaten by the Female Titan just
as Mikasa arrives on the scene.[112] Working with Levi, Mikasa is able to rescue Eren from the
Titan.[113] The Survey Corps returns to Wall Rose in defeat. Due to the mission's failure, the military
orders that Eren be turned over to the government.[114]
Before Eren can be handed over to the Military, he is let in on a plan by Erwin to capture the Female
Titan, whom Armin has deduced to be Annie Leonhart of the 104th. Eren is initially shocked and
angry at the accusation, refusing to believe that such a betrayal by one of his fellow trainees is
possible. However, he is forced to acknowledge that the fighting style the Female Titan exhibited
was exactly the same as Annie's. Reluctantly, he agrees to participate in the plan to capture her.[115]

Eren, Mikasa, and Armin leave with Annie

After Armin convinces Annie to join them in escorting Eren out of Stohess District, they lead her to
the entrance to an underground tunnel. Eren begs her to join them and prove her innocence, but
Annie refuses. Several soldiers ambush Annie[116] and she transforms, forcing Eren and his friends
underground. Eren tries to go into Titan form by injuring himself but cannot due to shock and
disbelief at Annie's betrayal, and his friendship with Annie making him unwilling to fight her.[117] As
Mikasa and Armin depart to attempt to lead Annie away, Eren is reminded of the lives Annie took as
the Female Titan as well as his vow to exterminate the Titans, allowing him to finally overcome his
inhibitions and transform into his Titan form.[118]
Even though Eren is in better control of his Titan and is equipped with knowledge of his opponent
this time round, he is ultimately no match for Annie's superior fighting technique and hardening
ability. He manages to throw Annie into some buildings, but gets his right leg taken off by a
hardened kick from Annie, who proceeds to slam him into a building and pummel his head
repeatedly with her hardened fist.[119]
Annie attempts to climb Wall Sheena to escape, but has her fingers severed by Mikasa, causing her
to fall back to the ground, where she is set upon by Eren, who holds her down as corps soldiers pry
open her nape.[120]
Clash of the Titans arc
Eren joins Hange and the others heading to the breach
When Wall Rose is supposedly breached, Eren is among one of the teams within the area to survey
the Wall for the supposed breach. While en route to Ehrmich District, Eren is appalled to learn that
Minister Nick helped keep the Colossus Titans inside the Walls secret and begs him to tell them
anything else he might know. Nick proves to be tight-lipped and Hange instead decides to inform
Eren of their plan to try to replicate the Female Titan's hardening ability in Eren so that he can use
his own Titan's body to seal Wall Rose.[121]
After learning from Nick that Krista Lenz will be able to divulge more secrets about the Walls, Eren
accompanies Hange's squad to Utgard Castle to save the soldiers trapped there. They arrive just in
time to save their comrades, excluding the members of Squad Mike who have already died. During
the rescue Eren kills his first Titan while in human form but is scolded for breaking cover and
endangering himself.[122]
In the aftermath, Eren is among the soldiers on top the Wall recovering from the ordeal at Utgard. He
asks about Ymir's condition before going to help an injured Reiner climb the Wall. As he
helps Armin up Eren tries to check on Reiner, who begins complaining about his repeated near-
death experiences. Hannes arrives with news that there is no hole or breach in the Wall, prompting
Eren to question if Hannes is drunk. As Hange orders them to stay on standby in Trost District,
Reiner asks to speak with Eren in private.[123]

Reiner reveals their identities to Eren

Leading Eren away, Reiner reveals that he and Bertolt are the Armored and Colossus Titans,
explaining that they will need to continue their attacks on the Walls if Eren returns to
their hometown with them.[124] Eren recalls Hange inquiring about Reiner and Bertolt potentially
being accomplices to Annie,[125] and tries to persuade Reiner that he is tired and simply not thinking
straight. In response to Eren's disbelief, Reiner removes the bandage on his arm and reveals that his
wounds are regenerating. Mikasa attempts to intervene and protect Eren, but Reiner and Bertolt
transform into their Titan forms and attack. Reiner grabs Eren while Bertolt kidnaps Ymir and Eren,
disgusted by his former friends, transforms himself.[126]

Reiner and Bertolt transform on Eren

Eren and Reiner grapple with one another while Hange's squad attempts to take Bertolt down. Eren
grows increasingly angry as he remembers all of the pain Reiner and Bertolt inflicted on Paradis, but
he is unable to do any damage to Reiner with brute force due to the latter's armor.[127] Instead, he
opts to uses Annie's fighting techniques, grappling with Reiner until he locks his foe in a submission
hold. As Eren holds Reiner, he focuses pressure on one of Reiner's arms, breaking the armor
around the joints and tearing the arm off completely.[128]
With Reiner crippled, Eren falls back to the Wall where Hange orders him to find a way to destroy
Reiner's legs so that he can flee without being pursued. Eren is caught off guard by Reiner attacking
him head on, but he manages to lock Reiner in another submission hold. As Mikasa slashes Reiner's
legs, Eren begins applying pressure to his nape, causing its armor to crack. However, before he can
break Reiner out of his Titan Reiner begins roaring, causing Bertolt's Titan to roll off the top of the
wall, landing atop both of them.[129]

Eren wakes up in the forest

Eren and Ymir are taken to the Titan Forest by Reiner and Bertolt.[130] He attempts to transform into
his Titan form in spite of losing his arms, but Ymir points out that they are surrounded by Titans and
have no maneuvering equipment to escape. As they wait to depart at sundown, Ymir and Eren
discover that Reiner has developed a split personality due to the guilt of betraying his comrades.
Eren is enraged, thinking that Reiner has no right to feel sorry for himself after what he has done.
Reiner and Bertolt try to offer Eren and Ymir a chance to join them in order to protect their loved
ones but Eren furiously refuses and blames both Reiner and Bertolt for causing the hardship he has
had to endure.[131] Eren continues to violently resist his captors, causing Reiner to knock him out.
His unconscious form is strapped to Bertolt's back to be carried.
Eren awakes in the midst of an attempt by the Survey Corps to rescue him and immediately begins
resisting his captors again. In an attempt to free himself from Pure Titans which have begun to
attack him, Reiner is forced to stop using his hands to cover Eren and Bertolt, exposing them and
giving Mikasa the opportunity to attack Bertolt. As she rushes forward, Bertolt dodges and Eren tries
in vain to warn Mikasa of a Titan behind her.[132]
Armin distracts Bertolt, giving Erwin enough time to cut Eren free from his captors. Mikasa then
grabs him before landing on their horses. As they flee, a large Titan is sent flying and creates a large
explosion of dust. This causes some soldiers to fall off their horses including Eren and Mikasa. As
the two pick themselves up, they are horrified to see the Titan which ate Carla approaching
them.[132]

Eren unwittingly uses the power of the Founding Titan

Hannes steps forward to protect Eren and Mikasa. While he distracts the Titan, Eren shouts for
Mikasa to free him, believing that he is the only one who can save their lives. But when he tries to
transform into a Titan, nothing happens because he is still recovering from his injuries.
He is devastated when Hannes gets eaten, devastated at the thought that nothing has changed from
when he was 10 and was powerless to save either his mother or Hannes. Mikasa attempts to
reassure him, telling Eren that she wants to thank him for teaching her how to live, and for wrapping
his muffler on her which she always wears.[133] Filled with newfound conviction, Eren vows to
Mikasa that he will wrap the muffler around her as many times as he needs to. In a desperate
attempt, Eren punches the Smiling Titan in the hand as it reaches for him. Eren screams and
another Titan attacks the Smiling Titan. Elsewhere around them, the Titans that were fighting the
soldiers turn and start running to the Smiling Titan, surrounding and devouring it. Eren takes
advantage of the situation and flees, carrying Mikasa on his back. When Reiner and Bertolt pursue
him, he screams again and the Titans turn to attack them.[134]
The Uprising arc

Eren at the meeting, regretting their poor cleaning job

Eren and the unified military group manage to return to Wall Rose. Armin notes how Eren seemingly
controlled the Titans on the way back, but Eren is not confident in the ability.[135] While Eren tries to
remember exactly what happened and how, Jean tells him that whether it was worth paying the price
to rescue him will depend on what Eren does going forward. Eren finds it odd to be lectured by Jean,
but recognizes that he is right and vows to no longer hesitate.[136]

Hange removes Eren from his Titan and notices his disfigured face
Approximately one week later, he and the new Squad Levi move into a secluded cabin. Levi begins
a meeting with his and Hange's squads, announcing their plan to use Eren's hardening to seal Wall
Maria.[137] At Levi's request Hange begins testing Eren's hardening abilities, but little success is
had.[138] Eren fails to show any signs of hardening and the longer he tries, the more malformed his
Titan body becomes.[139] Eren is discouraged by the results, but Hange and Levi manage to cheer
him up by reminding him that they learned a lot about his abilities and limitations.[140]
After receiving word from Erwin, Eren moves out along with the rest of Levi's squad and heads to
their rendezvous point in Trost District.[141] However, he does not accompany them inside. Instead,
he waits with Historia in an undisclosed location. The two of them bond over dreams they cannot
remember and expectations they cannot meet. Historia notes that the others must be disappointed
by how empty her true self is compared to her Krista persona, and Eren tells her that he likes her
new personality more than her old one.[142]

Eren and Historia are captured by the First Interior Squad

One morning Eren remembers a new detail from his time with Bertolt, Reiner, and Ymir and takes
the information to Hange.[143] Hange departs with the information to take to Erwin and Nifa returns
with a message from the night before.[144] Erwin's plan is to have Historia take the throne, since
the Reiss family is the true royal family. To lure out Rod Reiss, Eren and Historia are handed over to
the Reeves Company to be delivered to the Military Police.[145]
Eren and Historia are tied up in a remote location by Dimo Reeves so they can be handed over to
the Military Police's First Interior Squad. Reeves hides tiny blades on Eren so that he will be able to
cut himself in case of an emergency. However, the Military Police anticipate a trap and take away
the hidden blades before they can be used. Eren and Historia are then loaded into a carriage.[146]
Rod Reiss triggers the memories
Eren awakes in a large crystalline cavern, gagged and restrained by chains atop a raised platform.
As he struggles to break free, he spots Historia approaching below him. He is glad to see she is safe
and Historia assures him that her father has been misunderstood, having only acted in ways that are
beneficial for humanity. Eren finds the cavern they are in familiar and Rod suggests that he and
Historia lay their hands on Eren's back to help him remember. When they do, Eren begins seeing his
father Grisha's memories and is stunned to learn that he ate his own father.[147]
Once the three of them are alone, Rod opens a satchel and reveals a syringe, which Eren
recognizes as the same kind his father had used on him. Rod explains that the Founding Titan's
powers can only be fully utilized by a member of the Reiss family. Kenny, overhearing Rod's words
as he returns, is distraught to learn he will not be able to use Frieda's power if he devours Eren.
Intending to force Eren and Historia to battle each other over possession of Frieda's power, Kenny
cuts open Eren's forehead so that he will be able to transform, before retreating to a safe
distance.[148]

Rod Reiss transforms into a Titan

However, Eren refuses to transform. Heartbroken to learn that Frieda could have put an end to the
Titans and prevented so many of the deaths that had occurred since the fall of Wall Maria, Eren
begs Historia to eat him so that she can use the power that his father stole to save humanity. Moved
by Eren's words, Historia incapacitates her father and begins freeing Eren from the restraints that
still hold him, to Eren's shock and despair.[149]
As Rod transforms himself into a Titan, Eren begs Historia to allow her father to eat him. Historia
refuses, explaining that even if she is an enemy to humanity, she is still Eren's friend. She is blown
back by the winds created from Rod's transformation, but Levi and his squad arrive in time to save
her and get the keys to Eren's chains. The ceiling begins caving in due to the sheer size of Rod's
Titan and the squad's escape is blocked. Eren realizes that everyone with him is going to die.[150]
Eren's hardened Titan
As the squad considers ways to escape, Eren apologizes for being useless and Levi tells him that he
has a choice to make. Spurred by Levi's words, Eren grabs a bottle labeled "Armor" that had fallen
out of Rod's satchel and bites into it. After transforming into a Titan, Eren is able to harden it and
reinforce the structural integrity of the cavern around it.[151][152]
The squad climbs out of the ruined cavern and regroups to chase after Rod, who has become an
Abnormal Titan twice the size of the Colossus Titan. Eren still considers being eaten by Rod to save
humanity but Historia argues that the Reiss family has already tried undoing the brainwashing and
once Rod has the Founding Titan's power, he can alter everyone's memories so they have no
interest in restraining him.[153]

Eren tries to control the Titan like he did before

Historia argues that taking away the Reiss family's ability to alter memories was the only way to save
humanity, prompting Eren to remember his father's words from right before he injected him. His
father asked him to learn to control this power to save Mikasa, Armin, and everyone else. They meet
up with Erwin and his forces, and the soldiers all proceed to Orvud District to intercept Rod's
Titan.[154]
Eren helps the Survey Corps stack barrels of gunpowder together on a net of rope. He watches
Historia stand up to Erwin and admires how strong she has become compared to him. Feeling
melancholy that humanity has to depend on someone like him, he spots children in Orvud who
remind him of himself as a child and thinks back to when the Colossus Titan appeared. Armin tells
him that it will be different from before, because this time the soldiers on the Wall can fight back.
Eren punches himself, to try beating out his feelings of uselessness.[155]
Eren about to attack Rod with his Titan form
When Rod's Titan arrives and pulls itself up to the Wall, Eren transforms into his Titan form. He
takes the net stuffed with barrels and shoves it into the open mouth of the Titan, which is hot enough
to make the gunpowder ignite. This causes the Titan's head and neck to explode and enables the
Survey Corps soldiers to attack the flying chunks of meat in hope of destroying the nape.[156]
Two months after Historia becomes queen, Eren and the other members of the 104th volunteer at an
orphanage that she has started. As Eren helps Historia, she asks about the progress of his
hardening experiments. Eren says they are going well, but wants to speed up the training before
Reiner and Bertolt come back. She asks what he would do if they meet up again, and Eren says he
will have to kill them. Eren compliments Historia for the work she has done, prompting Mikasa to
abruptly interrupt the conversation and take Eren's load away from him.[157]
Thanks to Eren's hardening experiments, the Executioner from Hell is developed, giving soldiers a
reusable weapon to safely kill Titans without risking their lives. However, creating the materials for
one puts a strain on Eren's body.[158]
As Eren and his friends eat dinner in the mess hall, Eren recalls the events of the past few months,
particularly those concerning Ymir and how she said her life was like a nightmare when she was a
Titan outside of the Walls. He wonders if there was a time when he was like that too, but all he
remembers is what his father saw when Eren ate him. Jean advises that Eren focus on remembering
is the identity of the Survey Corps soldier from his father's memories. Jean jokes that a headbutt
from their instructor would bring the memory back and Eren realizes that the man his father had
seen was instructor Keith Shadis.[159]
Return to Shiganshina arc

Eren meets with Keith Shadis

The next morning, Eren and his comrades visit Keith Shadis, their former instructor.[160] Eren asks
him to tell them all that he knows[161] and Keith tells him how he met Grisha and everything he
knows about him.[162] Keith confesses that he is nothing more than a bystander and that he has no
power to change things.[163]
The day before the operation to retake Wall Maria, the soldiers are having a great dinner in order to
ready them for the operation.[164] Eren and Connie are forced to restrain Sasha to keep her from
eating everything.[165] The two reflect on how much things have changed in three months since the
battle of Trost.[166] Jean starts a fight with Eren by insulting him and their fight is eventually stopped
by Levi.[167]
Squad Levi rides towards Shiganshina
After the fight, Eren, Armin and Mikasa have a conversation about their future. They talk about how
strong and weak people need to combine their abilities in order to succeed.[168] After mistaking
a Garrison with Hannes, Mikasa wonders if they will be able to go back to easier times when they
retake Wall Maria. Eren answers that it may not be possible, but that is the reason why they must
make them pay.[169]
The next morning, the soldiers are ready to travel. They get very surprised when they see that the
civilians are cheering them.[168] Finally, Erwin orders the start of the operation and Eren travels
towards Shiganshina along with Squad Levi.[170]
While traveling on foot under the cover of night, Eren apologizes to Mikasa, who is escorting his
horse in addition to her own, but she insists that he save his energy so that he can seal Wall Maria.
Eren is surprised to find himself shaking in anticipation. He insists that he is just shaking from the
cold, but Armin reassures him that it is normal to feel scared of the Titans and reminds Eren of when
he was nearly eaten during the Battle for Trost. Eren reveals that he sacrificed himself to save Armin
that day because he had remembered the first time Armin told him about the outside world, which
had caused him to realize just how much the Titans had taken from the humans.[171]

Eren seals the breach in Wall Maria

Arriving in Shiganshina, the Corps soldiers quickly scale Wall Maria with their vertical maneuvering
equipment. Soaring over Wall Maria,[172] Eren transforms into his Titan form and uses his hardening
abilities to seal its hole. Mikasa retrieves him and carries him back to the top of the Wall.[173]
While going to meet up with the rest of the Corps, Hange orders Eren's squad to take up positions
along the top of the Wall after observing a signal flare fired by Erwin.[174] To Eren's shock, Reiner
emerges from the inside of the Wall and kill a Corps soldier before being attacked by Levi. As Reiner
transforms into his Titan form, Eren is surprised again by the sudden appearance of an army of
Titans on the outskirts of Shiganshina, with the Beast Titan leading them.[175]
Eren battles the Armored Titan once more
On Erwin's orders, Eren descends into Shiganshina where he changes into his Titan form and acts
as bait to draw Reiner's attention. After leading Reiner away from Wall Maria, Eren begins to engage
him, using his new hardening abilities to cover his fists in armor. Although he initially has the upper
hand against Reiner, Eren is momentarily overpowered and pinned to the ground. He manages to
regain control of the fight and throw Reiner off of him, and into an area where Hange's squad can
attack. As Eren watches, Hange's squad blinds Reiner with their Thunder Spears before blowing
open his Titan form's nape and apparently killing him.[176]

Eren is incapacitated by the Colossus Titan

After being informed that Bertolt is approaching, Hange orders Eren and his comrades to retreat
from Reiner's immediate vicinity to avoid the blast from Bertolt's transformation.[177] After Armin fails
to negotiate with Bertolt, Bertolt transforms into his Titan form and Eren uses his Titan form to shield
his comrades from the blast.[178] Armin gives control of the squad to Jean and Eren begins to retreat
from Bertolt's position on Jean's orders, using a nearby building to keep himself hidden.[179]
Eren attempts to draw his attention away from Wall Maria and the Survey Corps' remaining soldiers.
Bertolt ignores him and Eren and his comrades are left with no choice but to engage him. As his
comrades flank Bertolt, Eren grabs one of Bertolt's legs and attempts to push him back. Bertolt
simply kicks Eren into the side of Wall Maria, leaving him incapacitated.[180]
After Armin wakes him up,[181] Eren reluctantly goes along with Armin's plan, pretending to fall down
to the ground and become immobile in front of the north gate while Armin pretends to act
shocked.[182] Escaping his Titan form after hardening it, Eren then grapples onto the nape of the
Colossus Titan, slices it open, and yanks Bertolt out. Once Bertolt is incapacitated, Eren finds
Armin's charred body.[183]
Eren is elated to see Armin is alive
Eren laments that he could not prevent Armin from being killed. He notices Zeke closing in on him
and threatens to kill Bertolt if Zeke comes any closer. To Eren's shock, Zeke claims that he has been
enslaved by his father Grisha's ideology and promises to save him. Before Eren can question him
Zeke retreats as Levi arrives. Noticing that Armin is still breathing, Eren begs Levi to use the Titan
serum on him.[184] Levi initially agrees before deciding to give it to Erwin upon learning that the
commander is still alive. He tries reminding Levi of all that Armin accomplished as reasons that he
should be spared.[185] Levi ultimately chooses Armin. As Armin returns to his human form after
devouring Bertolt, Eren and the 104th go to reunite with him.[186]

Eren, Mikasa, Levi and Hange discover the truth in the basement
When Armin wakes up, Eren explains what has transpired to him, including Bertolt's death.[187] He,
Hange, Levi, and Mikasa make their way to his basement. However, they discover that the key
Grisha had given him does not fit the lock. Levi kicks down the door and they enter an office. It
seems to be nondescript until Mikasa finds a keyhole in Grisha's desk. Eren tries the key on it and it
opens to reveal a drawer that appears to be empty. They find a false bottom in the drawer and
underneath it are preserved books. Eren, with Mikasa, opens one of them and finds a picture of a
family. On the back of it is a message of Grisha that the picture is called a "photograph" and that
humanity has not perished.[188]
Eren and Armin discuss and verify the memories
Upon returning victorious to the Walls, Eren and Mikasa are placed in detention for disobeying
orders from Levi and Hange. While serving his sentence, he helps Armin verify the contents of
Grisha's books regarding the outside world and the true nature of the Titans by comparing them with
his memories that Grisha passed down to him. During one of his nightmares, he is startled awake
with the realization that Dina, Grisha's first wife, was the Smiling Titan who had devoured his
mother.[189]
Hange and Levi release Eren and Mikasa from detention ten days early, informing them that their
punishment was only to set an example to the public and that their help is needed to chart a new
course for the Survey Corps in light of the new revelations about the outside world.[190]

Eren remembers a way to use the Founding Titan

Eren and the survivors attend a meeting with the rest of the military, including the Queen, to discuss
the results of the expedition to Shiganshina and the information about the outside world recovered
from Grisha's books. During the meeting, Eren realizes that the reason he was able to activate the
Founding Titan's powers in the past was because he had physical contact with Dina Fritz, a member
of the royal family. Eren chooses to withhold the revelation, reasoning that it is not the proper
occasion to discuss such a controversial idea, especially if it involves having Historia turn into a Titan
so he can control the Founding Titan.[191]
The surviving members of the Survey Corps later attend a ceremony to be commemorated with
medals for their bravery and success in Shiganshina. Before the ceremony begins, Floch
Forster confronts Armin about the decision to save him over Erwin, angering Eren. An argument
begins but before it can escalate it was broken apart by Jean. Armin, agreeing with Floch's
argument, is comforted by Eren who reminds Armin of his dream to see the ocean.[192] The
ceremony begins and while receiving his medal from Historia, Eren kisses her hand and begins
receiving his father's memories of the night he killed the Reiss family.[193] Along with his father's
memories of that night, Eren also receives memories from himself, sent to his father from the year
854 via the Attack Titan, effectively allowing him to see the future. The memories he receives of the
plan he will enact to save Eldia[194] leaves Eren visibly distressed.[195]

Eren solemnly stands in the ocean, pointing towards his enemies in Marley
In roughly a year the Titan Guillotine vanquishes all Titans within Wall Maria, Shiganshina District is
repopulated, and the Survey Corps hold their first expedition beyond the Walls in six years. The
Survey Corps encounters a deformed Titan, who had been crawling towards the Wall, and Eren
identifies the Titan as a former compatriot. The Survey Corps follows the deformed Titan's trail until
they reach the edge of Paradis Island.[196]
The Survey Corps go down to the beach front, dismounting their horses and taking off their boots.
Armin is overjoyed by the ocean, but Eren solemnly notes that the other side of the ocean does not
hold freedom as he used to believe. Enemies exist on the other side of the ocean and Eren wonders
if killing everybody across the ocean will bring the people of the Walls freedom.[197]
Marley arc

Eren explains how to bypass the vow to renounce war

In the year 851, Eren works with Hange Zoë and the Survey Corps to prepare for Marleyan action
against Paradis Island. Eventually, the first scouting ship arrives and Eren uses his Titan form to pick
it up and beach it on the shoreline.[198] At a meeting between members of the Eldian Military, Eren
supports the plan made by Zeke Yeager and reveals the encounter with Dina Fritz that caused him
to activate the powers of the Founding Titan. He explains to Hange and Levi Ackerman that he
stayed quiet so that Historia Reiss's life would not be threatened.[199]
Over the next three years, Marley sends a total of 32 scouting ships to Paradis Island,[200] all of
which are destroyed by Eren and Armin Arlert.[201] While at a shooting range, Eren asks Armin if he
has seen anything from Bertolt Hoover's memories that could help them. Armin ponders if it is
possible for Paradis Island and Marley to resolve their misunderstandings diplomatically, but Eren
brushes him off. Arguing that everyone still sees them as devils, he reaffirms his position that
Paradis must strike the first blow in order to buy the island time.[202]
Eren objects to Zeke's plan
Eren later attends a meeting between Kiyomi Azumabito, from the nation of Hizuru, and the heads of
Paradis on forming an alliance. When Eren hears that one of the three paths of action would involve
Historia succeeding Zeke as the Beast Titan, he refuses to accept the plan.[203]
In 853, while helping his friends assemble a train line, Eren is very disappointed to hear that Hizuru
has been unable to find additional allies for them. Mentioning that Zeke only has two years left to live
before he dies, Eren ponders who should take his Titan when he himself must pass it on. His friends
offer themselves but he tells them that he wants them to live long lives.[204]
Roughly a year later Floch allows Yelena to discreetly meet with Eren at least once during a festival
in Trost.[205] Yelena explains Zeke's plan to euthanize the Eldian race along with his plan to feed his
spinal fluid to the Military's officers so that they will not be able to oppose his or Eren's movements.
Yelena would later deny advising him to infiltrate Marley on his own.[206] Eren also learns from
Yelena that Zeke wishes to speak with him in regards to his true intentions to free Paradis.[207]

Eren shares his plan with Floch

Following his meeting with Yelena, Eren meets with Floch privately and tells him that he wants them
to pretend to cooperate with Zeke's plan. Floch asks what he actually wants to do while pretending
to cooperate with Zeke and Eren tells Floch his plan to use the Founding Titan to kill everyone
outside of Paradis.
Eren meets with Historia and warns her that the Military Police are planning to feed Zeke to her,
advising her to either fight or run to avoid becoming one of the Nine Titans. Historia refuses to
oppose the MPs, explaining that she is willing to sacrifice herself if it will save Paradis. Eren reveals
his plan to destroy the outside world to her, horrifying Historia. She reminds Eren that most of the
people outside the Walls have nothing to do with Paradis but Eren insists that the only way to end
the aggression towards Paradis is to wipe out anyone not strictly allied with them. Eren offers to
erase Historia's memory with the Founding Titan if she cannot live with the guilt of knowing his
plan.[208]
Eren is one of several Survey Corpsmen who journey to Marley's mainland to meet with Kiyomi.
Although his companions are thrilled by the new experiences beyond the walls, Eren remains stoic,
only commenting on things which he recognizes from his father's memories.[209] Eren explores
Marley, agonizing over the knowledge that he will soon be responsible for killing everyone.
Remembering Karl Fritz's desire for the Eldian people to die out, Eren admits that such an outcome
would lead to less deaths and finally rid the world of Titans, but he finds himself unable to accept
such a fate. He finds a boy being beaten by merchants for stealing and recognizes from his
memories that he is going to save the boy. He attempts to convince himself not to and leave,
knowing that he will ultimately kill the boy himself in the rumbling, but he is unable to stop himself
from intervening.

Eren tearfully gives his apology

Eren returns the boy to his village, sullenly noting that he was unable to change the future. In tears,
he apologizes to the boy.[210] The boy returns to his tent just as Mikasa arrives to look for Eren. He
brushes off her worried comments about his reckless behavior, instead commenting on the
similarities between the boy's family and their experiences when Shiganshina was breached. Eren
asks Mikasa why she displays so much concern for him and Mikasa, surprised, claims it is because
they are family. They are joined by Jean, Armin, Connie and Sasha and the group is welcomed into
the tent by the boy's family, spending the night drinking and carousing.[211]
The soldiers sit in on a hearing between politicians to discuss Eldian mistreatment. When the
speaker begins calling for the hatred being shown towards Eldians to be redirected towards the
Eldians living on Paradis, Eren quietly leaves the meeting.[212]

Eren asks Falco to mail a letter

Before the end of the Marley Mid-East War, Eren cuts off his own leg and gouges out one of his
eyes to infiltrate the Marley military as an injured Eldian soldier.[213] He returns to Liberio and is sent
to the hospital along with the other wounded and traumatized Eldian soldiers. After being knocked to
the floor by a terrified soldier, he is helped up by Falco Grice who points out that his armband is on
the wrong arm.[214]
Using the alias of Kruger, Eren is visited by Falco while he is in the hospital. He admits to Falco that
he has been faking amnesia so that he will not be discharged[215] and asks the boy to send a letter
for him from outside of the internment zone so that the hospital will not figure out that he is faking his
illness. Eren says the letter is to his family, to let them know he is all right.[216]
During his stay in Liberio, Eren meets with Zeke and learns about the true nature behind
the Ackerman clan lineage.[217] Eren asks Zeke if Mikasa's headaches are something every
Ackerman experiences and Zeke claims to have never heard of such symptoms. Zeke tells Eren that
he does not believe that Ackermans truly have ingrained behaviors toward a host, instead
suggesting that Mikasa simply likes Eren. Eren replies that he only has 4 years left to live, and
wishes for his friends to live longer.[208] Zeke asks if Eren would go through with his plan set to save
the Subjects of Ymir by euthanizing them.[218] Eren claims that their father was mistaken and agrees
with Zeke's earlier claim that Grisha had brainwashed him into following his plan. Eren laments that
there would be no suffering had the Eldians never been born and agrees to work with Zeke.[219]

Eren meets his grandfather

Eren continues to receive visits from Falco, who delivers more of his letters. During this time, Eren
learns that Reiner is still alive and is Falco's superior.[220] After Falco leaves, one of the hospital's
doctors sits down next to Eren and introduces himself as Yeager. The two talk about Falco, and
Yeager asks Eren to stop using Falco to run errands, so that there would be no risk of undoing the
hard work that had returned peace to the Grice family. Eren asks Yeager if he has any regrets about
his family, causing the doctor to have a mental breakdown.[221]

Eren reunites with Reiner after four years

Just before the start of the Tybur festival, Eren leaves the hospital and takes up residence in a
building near the stage Willy Tybur will be performing a play on. En route, he runs into Falco and
asks the boy to bring Reiner to him.[222] Upon Reiner's arrival, he asks Eren why he is in Marley, and
Eren responds that he is there for the same reason as Reiner; he has no choice. Revealing that he
has already slit his hand in preparation to transform if need be, Eren insists that Reiner sit with him
to listen to the play.[223]
Eren regenerates his leg and apologizes to Falco for deceiving him, admitting that the letters Falco
sent were not to his family but to his allies stationed in Marley. Overhearing Willy claim that he is a
threat to Marley's peace, Eren admits that he is indeed the "bad guy," but argues that the Warriors
were also the bad guys when they invaded Wall Maria. Eren asks why Reiner and the others broke
the wall[224] and Reiner says that it was so they could capture the Founder and save the world.
Reiner asks if Eren has come to kill him and Eren admits that he has seen that there are both good
and evil people in Marley. He admits that he understands the turmoil Reiner went through, causing
the latter to break down and ask that Eren kill him.[225]

Eren kills Willy Tybur and declares war against Marley

Helping Reiner to his feet, Eren says that he now understands that they are the same and declares
that he will continue until he wipes out his enemy. Transforming into the Attack Titan, Eren breaks
out of the building and kills Willy.[226] He flings himself on top of the military high command in the
crowd, killing them. As Eren rampages, the War Hammer Titan emerges and he attacks it before it
can fully transform. It appears he has the upper hand until a hardened pillar impales him.[227]
The War Hammer Titan finishes its formation and constructs a hammer to fight Eren. Eren breaks
the pillar trapping his Titan only to find the ground covered in barbed spikes, preventing him from
lifting his feet. Eren hardens his Titan's hands in an attempt to block the War Hammer's next strike,
but fails, and the Attack Titan's head is sheered away.[228] Eren emerges from his Titan's nape and
calls for Mikasa, who attacks the War Hammer at the same time the rest of the Survey Corps attack
the Marleyan military.[229]

Mikasa questions Eren about his killing of civilians

The War Hammer Titan survives Mikasa's attack and fires a pike of its hardened skin towards them.
Mikasa grabs Eren and flees from the Attack Titan's body, barely evading the pike. Eren comes up
with a plan to defeat and eat the War Hammer Titan, and asks Mikasa to distract it long enough for
him to enact it.[230] As Mikasa fights the War Hammer Titan, Eren remembers that the Titan's body
materialized from its feet rather than its nape and deduces that its human body is located
somewhere underground. Transforming back into the Attack Titan, he sees a hole in the street from
where a long cable of flesh comes out, attached to the War Hammer Titan. Eren reaches in and
grabs the crystallized body of the younger sister of Willy, severing her connection and disabling the
War Hammer.[231]
Eren about to eat the younger sister of Willy, as Galliard goes to attack him
As Eren is about to eat the War Hammer, the Jaw Titan appears behind him and bites Eren's neck.
With Levi's help, Eren smashes the Titan against the building and tries to take it off his back, but it
manages to flee. Because of the distraction Eren fails to notice that the War Hammer has been
generating a new Titan body and he is impaled in a tree-like structure made of hardened
skin.[232] Trapped, Eren breaks his hand free and attempts to consume the War Hammer's user
once more. When he bites the crystal, he breaks his Titan's jaw on the hardened surface. Eren exits
trapped Titan form and immediately transforms once again.[233] The Jaw Titan runs across the plaza
to assault Eren,[234] and resorts to using its claws to strike him. During the attack, Eren blocks a
slash from the Titan using the younger sister of Willy's crystal. Noticing that the attack successfully
produced cracks in the crystal, Eren devises a plan to use the Jaw Titan to get to the younger sister
of Willy.

Eren receives the powers of the War Hammer Titan

Mikasa cripples the Jaw Titan's legs in a surprise attack, allowing Eren grabs it and disables it before
jamming the crystal into its mouth and using its jaws to break through. He successfully kills the
younger sister of Willy, consuming the fluids from her body and giving himself the powers of the War
Hammer Titan.[235] He moves to finish off the Jaw Titan but is stopped by the arrival of an
incomplete Armored Titan. Eren punches Reiner, but Reiner manages to rescue the Jaw Titan. Eren
emerges from his Titan, proclaiming that their mission is done, leading Mikasa to ask that they go
back home. As they grapple up to the airship, Eren promises Reiner that they will meet again.[236]
Once on the airship Eren is met by Levi, who kicks him and orders that he be restrained. Eren does
not resist, but insists that nothing in his letter was wrong.[237] Eren waits in a room with Zeke and
Yelena aboard the airship when Jean arrives with Falco and Gabi, saying that Gabi shot
Sasha. Hange berates Eren for having forced the Survey Corps to accommodate his plans and
abusing their trust. Eren is unrepentant, saying that the destruction of the Marleyan military
leadership has bought them time. When Connie comes in to announce that Sasha has died, Eren
asks about her final words. Hearing that it was "meat," Eren begins to laugh.[238]
After returning to Paradis, Eren is taken to a cell underground in accordance with his arrest. As he
cleans himself up, Eren mutters that Paradis needs to continue fighting.[239]
War for Paradis arc
Eren grabs and assaults Hange
Hange arrives and notes that Eren was talking to himself before attempting to make small talk with
him. Eren demands to know what Hange visited him for[240] and Hange chastises Eren for inflaming
the rest of the world against Paradis with his attack. Eren reveals that he stole the power of the War
Hammer Titan in Liberio and claims that he can free himself any time. Grabbing Hange through the
bars of his cell, Eren demands to know what Hange can do to him, and asks if there is any other way
for them to act.[241]

Eren frees himself

At roughly the same time Darius Zackly is killed by a bomb in his office, Eren uses his Titan abilities
to escape from his cell. He seals up his exit route with hardened skin to prevent his captors from
following him.[242] After escaping, Eren meets up with the Yeagerists, a group consisting of Floch
and the other recruits who sided with him during his incarceration. Eren declares that they need to
locate Zeke.[243]
Eren hears the proposal put forth by Commander Pixis and refuses the offer. He instructs his
followers not to negotiate with the Military. He then learns from one of his followers that Hange and
his friends are gathered at a nearby restaurant. Arriving at the restaurant, he instructs Floch to
restrain and move them while he speak to Mikasa, Armin, and Gabi.[42] Eren speaks to them in a
private room, claiming to want to solve things peacefully. Armin asks if Zeke and Yelena have
convinced him to join their side, but Eren brushes him off and claims that everything he has done
has been his desire.[244] Mikasa insists he is being controlled but Eren ignores her.
Eren beats up Armin
Eren reveals to Armin that he is aware of the latter's frequent trips to visit Annie and suggests he is
being unknowingly influenced by the memories Bertolt had of her.[245] When Mikasa goes to defend
Armin, Eren reveals that he has learned about her family lineage from Zeke and claims that the only
reason she has stayed by his side is due to her instincts to protect her host. He explains that
Ackermans, once awakened, often suffer unexpected headaches due to their true self fighting the
urge to protect their recognized host and claims the true Mikasa died the day he saved her from her
kidnappers. Eren proclaims that he has always hated people like Mikasa: obedient slaves that do
nothing but follow orders.[246] Armin attacks Eren, but his point is proven when Mikasa instinctively
grabs Armin and slams him into the table. Armin manages to punch him anyway and Eren responds
by beating Armin into submission.[247] He orders that they and Gabi be taken away, but becomes
briefly enraged when Armin calls him a slave.[248]

Eren learns Pieck wishes to save the Eldians

Later, Eren takes two soldiers and visits Gabi in her holding cell[249] and offers to help her save
Falco in exchange for her issuing a call for help to Marley to root out any possible spies. Eren is
caught by surprise when one of the soldiers aims a pistol at him after stabbing the other in the
throat.[250] He is unfazed by Pieck's threat of shooting him, reminding her that her mission is to
presumably take him alive. However, Pieck claims that she wishes to join him.[251] Not trusting her
intentions, Eren pricks his finger and orders her to prove herself to him and the Yeagerists. When
Pieck offers to reveal where her fellow infiltrators are, Eren heals his finger and orders Pieck and
Gabi to be handcuffed together.[252]
Eren transforms after being ambushed by Galliard
On the roof, he prepares to injure himself again and orders Pieck to reveal her fellow infiltrators. She
points at Eren himself, and the Jaw Titan suddenly attacks Eren, taking both of his legs.
Transforming, Eren spots a fleet of Marleyan airships approaching their location.[253] Eren trades
several blows with the Jaw Titan before it retreats. Eren is perplexed at Marley's decision to launch a
counterattack so soon after the raid on Liberio. Despite Yelena pleading with him to flee
underground, Eren decides to fight Marley on his own.[254] Noticing Reiner transforming into the
Armored Titan while parachuting from an airship, Eren deduces that was responsible for Marley's
quick response to the Liberio attack and the two proceed to engage each other.[255]

Eren impales the Armored and Jaw Titan

Eren initially overpowers Reiner, using his superior fighting skills and hardening to break through
Reiner's armor plating. Reiner manages to briefly stun Eren and the Jaw Titan attempts to ambush
him from behind but Eren uses the War Hammer Titan's abilities to repel them.[256] Eren is shot in
the head with a round from Marley's anti-Titan artillery, leaving his motor skills severely impaired.
Eren is able to generate more spikes to stop the Jaw Titan's attacks but is shot in the head a second
time.[257] Stunned, Eren is unable to dodge Reiner's attack and is skewered by one of the spikes
generated from the ground. Despite this, he manages to generate a third set of spikes to impale
Reiner once more, and smacks the Jaw Titan out of the air when it tries to attack him from behind.
Eren tries to hold off Reiner and manages rip through the latter's jaw but Reiner continues to
incapacitate Eren until he is saved by a projectile thrown by Zeke from atop the Wall.[258]
Eren is decapitated
With Zeke's arrival, Eren begins trying to reach him in hopes of activating the powers of the
Founding Titan while Zeke keeps Marley's Warriors at bay.[259] As he grows closer to Zeke's
position, Eren is set upon by the Jaw Titan once again but makes short work of him, repeatedly
slamming down on the Titan's head and nape. However, this distracts him long enough for another
anti-Titan artillery round to be fired into his head again and for Reiner to catch up to him and begin
grappling with him. The fighting is momentarily interrupted by the arrival of Colt and Falco who
reveal that Falco has accidentally ingested Zeke's spinal fluid. Zeke is undeterred and screams,
ordering a transformed Falco to attack Reiner. Falco's Pure Titan does not prove to be enough to
force Reiner to let go of Eren, so Eren exits his Titan and begins running to Zeke on foot. However,
before he can reach his brother Eren is decapitated by a blast from an anti-Titan artillery rifle.[260]
As his head lands in his brother's hand, Eren suddenly finds himself standing before a pillar of light
in an unknown land. He is greeted by a chained Zeke, who informs Eren that they are standing in the
Coordinate.[261] Zeke explains that he was able to bring the two of them into the unknown land by
touching Eren's head in the moments before he could die. They have finally unlocked the Founding
Titan's power.[262]

Eren betrays Zeke by refusing to euthanize the Eldians

Eren notices a young girl approaching them and Zeke informs him that the girl is Ymir Fritz. Zeke
encourages him to take control of Ymir and activate their plan to euthanize all Eldians, but Eren
inquires as to why he is sitting there in chains. Zeke explains that the chains are Karl Fritz's vow,
keeping anyone with royal blood from acting freely and again asks Eren to begin their plan.
However, Eren reveals that he has no intention of following Zeke's plan and was only using him to
obtain the Founder's power.[263] Eren approaches Ymir and requests he be given control of her
power, only to be ignored.[264] To Eren's horror, Zeke reveals that during his time waiting for Eren to
arrive in the unknown land he discovered a way to erase Karl Fritz's vow, and that Ymir will only
obey people with royal blood. Zeke chains Eren in place, explaining that he has been brainwashed
by Grisha.[265] Despite Eren's protests, Zeke promises to free him and begins showing him
memories from Grisha's life.[266]
Zeke systematically takes Eren through different moments in Grisha's life on Paradis, detailing how
Grisha covertly used his occupation as a doctor to gain information on the royal family in spite of the
risk posed to his new family. Eren is largely unfazed by the memories, only surprised to learn that
Grisha located the Reiss chapel years before he actually attacked the family and that he still thought
of Zeke years after arriving to Paradis. While Zeke is reeling at the revelation that their father still
cared for him, Eren moves along to the next memory.[267] As Eren and Zeke continue through
Grisha's memories, Zeke asks why Eren betrayed him if he was not brainwashed by Grisha. Eren
responds that he has always believed in stealing the freedom of anyone who opposes his
own.[268] Eren and Zeke then go to the memory of Grisha writing about how humanity has not
perished beyond the walls, and are both caught off guard when Grisha is able to see Zeke for a brief
moment.

Eren influences his father to kill the Reiss family

Eren and Zeke travel to Grisha's memory of the day he stole the Founding Titan from the Reiss
family. As he observes the exchange between his father and Frieda Reiss, Eren becomes
increasingly agitated by Frieda's claims that the Eldians must take on the world's wrath for the sins of
their ancestors.[269] Despite Grisha's declaration that he will steal the Founding Titan from the Reiss
family, Eren is disappointed and enraged to see that his father cannot bring himself to carry out his
mission. To spur his father forward, Eren reminds Grisha of his fellow restorationists and Faye,
ordering him to finish what he has started.[270]

Eren escapes and rushes to get to Ymir

Zeke returns the two brothers to the present, despite Eren's objection that they have yet to see
Grisha's final memories. Eren reveals that four years prior he had been given a glimpse of his own
memories of the future while peering into Grisha's memories and Zeke, horrified, orders Ymir to
sterilize the Subjects of Ymir. Desperate to stop Zeke's plan, Eren is able to escape his chains by
severing his thumbs against the shackles and races to try to stop Ymir.[271] He embraces her and
begs that she give him her power so that he can end the world, promising that he will not force her to
help him. He recognizes that she is neither a slave nor a deity, she is only a human being and she
has the right to choose if she wants to remain in the Coordinate forever or help him end it all. As
Zeke desperately tries to stop him, Eren asks Ymir if she was the one who led him to the Coordinate,
musing that she has been waiting 2,000 years for him to arrive.[272]
Eren declares his intention to destroy the world
In Shiganshina, Eren's body transforms into the Founding Titan as Shiganshina's walls begin to
crumble.[273] He then uses the Founder's power to telepathically communicate with all of the
Subjects of Ymir.[274] He reveals that the hardening of the Walls has come undone, and declares
that the Wall Titans will destroy all life outside the island.[65]
Eren and his Titans arrive at Marley's coast to find it guarded by the Global Allied Fleet. However,
the fleet proves to be ineffective against Eren's Colossus Titans and is immediately wiped out. The
land artillery on Marley is also unsuccessful in stopping the advancing Titans, causing the soldiers to
retreat to higher ground. As his Titans begin the destruction of Marley, Eren remembers the death
of his mother and reiterates his desire to destroy every last one of his enemies in the world.[208]
As he approaches Fort Salta, Eren summons Mikasa, Armin, Jean, Connie, Levi, Reiner, and Pieck
into the Paths to speak to them. His former comrades beg him to stop the Rumbling, but Eren tells
them that he has no intention of stopping. He explains that he will take all of the world's freedom so
he can achieve his own, but he promises not to deny the alliance's freedom to thwart his plans.
However, Eren reinforces his intent to destroy the world, refusing to negotiate on any terms and
stating that the only thing to stop his advance would be his death.[275]

Eren engages his former comrades

Marleyan airships are launched from Fort Salta in an attempt to stop Eren's advance[276] and begin
dropping bombs on his Titan. In response, Eren dispatches the Beast Titan to shoot them down.
Eren and the Beast make quick work of the airships, but his former comrades arrive and manage to
evade the Beast Titan's projectiles long enough to reach him and engage him directly.[277]

Abilities
Martial arts
Originally, Eren's only noteworthy trait was his natural physical strength, which stemmed from having
to defend his friend Armin from bullies who were bigger and stronger. As he grew and joined the
104th squad, he trained extensively in hand-to-hand combat. After additional training with Reiner
and Annie, Eren's prowess and skill set diversified, including the use of punches, throws, grappling
and submission locks.[278] He had the best scores for hand-to-hand combat of the entire 104th
graduate squad. While hand-to-hand fighting would appear useless due to the massive physical
differences between humans and Titans, these skills gave Eren a powerful edge when fighting other
Titans in his own Titan form.
Vertical maneuvering equipment
Though having little talent, through intense training and effort he managed to gain a considerable
amount of skill with the equipment. Even so, Eren was not completely lacking in natural aptitude.
While using the damaged equipment, he had managed to stay upright for a short amount of time,
which the instructor, Keith Shadis, said was an incredible feat, and balanced with ease when using
proper gear.[279] The fact he graduated as the 5th best of the 104th graduate squad, even before
Jean Kirstein, who was top of the class in mobility with the gear, implied that he had considerable
combat skill with the maneuvering equipment.

Though Eren was not shown using the equipment as often as other members of the Survey Corps,
he was able to hold his own against the Colossus Titan until the Titan disappeared, almost reaching
the nape twice. He was even capable of killing a Titan on his own not too long after joining the
Survey Corps. His most significant use of maneuvering equipment was shown during the Battle of
Shiganshina, where he was able to use it to cut Bertolt Hoover out of the Colossus Titan's nape
while he was distracted by his hardened Titan form, despite being exhausted.

Eren Yeager's statistics [280]:

Combat 9/10
Initiative 10/10
Wits 3/10
Teamwork 5/10
Temper 10/10
Power of the Titans
Attack Titan
After the fall of Wall Maria, Grisha found Eren in a refugee camp and brought him into a nearby
forest. After giving him the key to the basement, Grisha injected a struggling Eren with a serum,
which transformed him into a 4 meter Pure Titan with short rugged hair and a skinny body. This Titan
ate Grisha, giving Eren the powers of the Founding Titan and Attack Titan. Years later, during the
first Battle of Trost, Eren was eaten alive by a Titan, and inside the stomach-like cavity saw other
fellow recruits lying dead/dying, one wanting her mother before sinking in stomach acid. The sight
combined with intense feelings of desperation and his drive to exterminate all Titans awoke his
ability to transform into his Titan form for the first time.[281]

In this form, Eren is a 15 meter tall Titan, with shoulder-length black hair, pointed ears, a long nose,
and a gaping, skeleton-like maw lacking lips. Unlike most other Titans, his Titan form is considerably
more muscular and defined; making him much stronger than even similar-sized Titans while his
intelligence and military training, allow him to out-maneuver and dispatch entire groups of Titans with
ease. A transformation takes a heavy toll on Eren’s body and requires large amounts of stamina. As
a result, he has displayed several symptoms when he over-exerts himself such as a nosebleed, pale
skin, and labored breathing. In some cases, Eren is rendered unconscious for a short period of time
after a Titan transformation.

Initially, Eren has no control over his actions when he first transforms into a Titan and is unable to
remember any actions that occurred during the first Battle of Trost. He is in a “dream-like state” and
fails to remember how to transform in the first place. However, Eren recalls fragmented memories of
his father by seeing the key to the basement of his old home and is able to successfully transform to
protect Armin and Mikasa from certain death. It has been shown that with more transformations,
Eren retains more of his intelligence, being able to form rational thoughts. At the beginning, during
the second Battle of Trost, Eren in his Titan form attacks Mikasa but ultimately plugs the hole in
Trost's gate after Armin forces him to wake up. His Titan form, combined with his growing
experience and his hand-to-hand combat skills, allowed him to kill over 20 Titans in his first
transformation and later manage to overpower and nearly kill the Armored Titan.[282]

Eren, like all others with the power of the Titans, must physically harm himself (or suffer some kind
of injury) in order to transform into his Titan form. However, lack of a determined goal and resolution
for it inhibit his ability to transform as shown when he cannot transform at first to confront Annie
Leonhart. Within Titan transformations, he has displayed the ability to partially transform, as shown
when he protected Mikasa and Armin from a cannonball by forming the upper torso skeleton,
complete with arms and a skull with some muscle tissue.

 Enhanced Strength: As a result of Eren’s Titan form being much more muscular than other
Titans, he is much stronger in terms of physical strength. During his first transformation, Eren
was able to decapitate a 15m Titan with a single punch and kill a 7m Titan with little effort.
With both arms lost, he was also strong enough to bite into the neck of a large, abnormal Titan
that ate Thomas and lift it up above his head. With enough force, Eren was able to throw the
abnormal into another Titan hard enough to knock them both into a building.[283] Against the
Female Titan in the Titan Forest, Eren’s Titan form had enough physical force to leave large
craters in the ground, as well as lift the Female Titan into the air with a punch. Ultimately,
Eren’s greatest display of strength was when he lifted a giant boulder, albeit with difficulty,
carry it across a large distance, and slam it down to seal the hole in Trost's gate, producing a
large shock wave.
 Enhanced Endurance: Perhaps Eren's most notable trait of all is his ability to maintain levels
of activity for an extended period of time. His first transformation carried on long enough to
incapacitate 20 Titans in total. In battle, even after receiving massive amounts of damage from
the Female Titan, Eren can carry on fighting, despite the handicaps that he suffers. He was
also able to fight against the Armored Titan for a period of time and gain the upper hand.
Eren’s endurance in his Titan form was enough to allow him to sustain the effort of hoisting a
huge rock on his back, carry it over a large distance, and seal the hole in Trost's gate shortly
before collapsing. In Marley, Eren displayed exceptional improvement in his durability. He
could transform into a Titan three times in one battle, surprising Galliard.

Eren hardening his fists

 Hardening: After drinking a bottle labeled "Armor" from Rod Reiss's bag, Eren's Titan form
gained the ability to harden its body, as well as create a web of pillars that appear to originate
from his Titan body. The hardened pillars are incredibly durable, capable of preventing a cave-
in, as well as shielding Squad Levi from the heat of Rod Reiss' Titan form. The constructs, as
well as Eren's Titan, also retain their durability and hardened state even after he has been
separated from his Titan body.[284] After two months of training with Hange Zoë, Eren is able
to seal a cave with his hardening powers and reinforce the hole the Colossus Titan left in
 Trost. However, constant use of this power can overwhelm Eren and make him weak. By
focusing his hardening in one place, it gets even stronger. Focusing in his fists gives Eren a
hardened punch, capable of easily breaking the Armored Titan's face armor.[285] In Marley,
Eren's improved hardening abilities let him harden his forearm fast enough to block a
hardened spike from the War Hammer before it could pierce his nape.[286]
 Regeneration: Eren’s Titan form has demonstrated the ability to automatically heal any injury
sustained in battle and also to regenerate entire limbs. Unlike Annie Leonhart, Eren has not
shown the advanced ability to focus regeneration to one wounded area of his Titan form. His
healing factor was fast enough to heal an entire lost hand in mere seconds to an entire arm in
minutes. This ability is useful to Eren as, when he fights, he often loses entire limbs in his
Titan form. While in his human state, Eren can also regenerate entire lost limbs, as seen by
regrowing an arm and leg he lost to Titans. When captured by Reiner and Bertolt in the Titan
Forest, Eren was seen regenerating his lost arms after he lost a fight in his Titan
form.[287] During his infiltration mission in Marley, Eren has mastered this ability to the extent
that he can restrain the regeneration of his left leg in order to disguise himself as an injured
soldier.
 Future Memory Inheritance: As part of the Attack Titan's unique abilities, Eren can reveal his
own memories to his predecessors, giving them insight into the future. He gives memories of
the future to his father Grisha, selecting the ones that would suit his purpose. By doing so, he
indirectly gives his younger self insight into his own future via Grisha's memories when Eren
kisses Historia's hand.[288]
Founding Titan
With the power of the Founding Titan that Grisha Yeager stole from the Reiss family, Eren
possesses the ability to control nearby Titans, causing them to relentlessly attack his chosen target.
However, this ability can only be used while Eren is in contact with a Titan of royal blood.
The first time he uses it is entirely by accident, by touching the palm of Dina Fritz's Titan, causing
nearby Titans to attack and devour her, and setting the same Titans upon Bertolt and Reiner. While
it is shown that others with the power of the Titans can sense the activation of his power, it is
unknown whether it is possible to use it to influence or control other human-controlled Titans.[289]
Possession of the Founding Titan is the reason many groups have expressed an interest in Eren,
including Marley's Warriors in their Paradis Island Operation, and Rod Reiss, the former patriarch of
the Reiss family.
Four years after Eren's first, and accidental use of it, Eren is finally able to unlock the full capabilities
of the Founding Titan after freeing the soul of Ymir Fritz from the control of her descendants, giving
him access to all of the Founder's powers. With the full power of the Founder, Eren is able to control
all of the Wall Titans, create a unique Titan body that towers over all of them, and can telepathically
communicate with all of the Subjects of Ymir.[274]
War Hammer Titan
Eren obtained the power of the War Hammer Titan during the Raid on Liberio by devouring
the younger sister of Willy. He is capable of using the War Hammer's abilities to create defensive
pikes and caltrops to hinder his enemies in combat. He is also capable of sealing a long tunnel with
hardened Titan flesh to evade capture.[8][290]

 Grisha Yeager - Eren greatly looked up to his father Grisha, who usually supported his son
and did not show any visible objections to Eren's wish to join the Survey Corps when he was
old enough to enlist; he did express some frustration and later sadness by his father's sudden
disappearance after Wall Maria fell. Upon remembering the mission his father left him before
he vanished, Eren expressed anger and bitterness at the fact that Grisha had kept secrets
from them, on top of abandoning himself and Mikasa. Eventually, Eren is shown memories of
his father thanks to Historia and Rod Reiss in which he learns his father had indeed returned
after the fall of Wall Maria; in addition, Eren also learned that his father was the one who gave
him his powers and he was dead because Eren devoured him. Eren became distraught upon
 realizing he killed his own father but became horrified that the latter was a Titan that killed the
Reiss family. He tried to persuade Historia that they do not have to follow the wishes of their
fathers, showing he gained some resentment for Grisha. This would last for several years until
he saw his father's memories and saw why he kept his past a secret from him. This gave Eren
a better understanding of his father's actions and why Grisha kept secrets from his family. This
understanding was seen again after he met his grandfather who broke down after reflecting on
his past treatment to his son. While appreciating his father, Eren expressed frustration at
Grisha's reluctance to take the Founder and influenced him in order to fulfill his duty.
 Carla Yeager - Eren clearly loved his mother Carla very much, although they would constantly
argue over his wish to join the Military and as a result would often ignore her warnings or
advice. During the fall of Shiganshina, he struggled in vain to rescue her from the rubble of
their demolished home despite being surrounded by Titans and wanting to run away from the
danger. Unfortunately, he was ultimately forced to watch a Titan devour her as he was hauled
to safety. Her brutal demise and his own powerlessness to prevent it severely traumatized
Eren. In his grief, he expressed remorse for continuing to disobey and argue with her in their
last moments together, and her loss fueled his virulent hatred of all Titans. As he
contemplated the future years later, he would ponder on his mother's opinion of the
oncoming calamity he would inflict on the world.
 Hannes - Prior to the fall of Wall Maria, Eren was constantly frustrated by Hannes being a
habitual drunkard in the line of duty. Despite not having saved Carla from the hands of
the Titan, Eren borne no ill will towards him, and instead looked up to him with respect and
understanding. Eren was driven to the brink of despair as he witnessed Hannes being eaten
alive by the Smiling Titan, and he remains tormented by his loss despite managing to avenge
him. In memory of Hannes and his sacrifice, Eren has become more determined than ever to
discover the truth about the Titans and punish any guilty parties.
 Mikasa Ackerman - Eren has a complex relationship with his adoptive sister. He often displays
a brusque, casual attitude with her, which belies their deep bond and care for each other.
While Mikasa is more open with showing concern for him, Eren only does so when she is
injured or in distress. Despite his blunt exterior, he is always looking out for her, and will not
hesitate to comfort or reassure her when he senses that she needs him to. He would even go
as far as to call himself a monster to ensure that she would not be targeted by the
prosecution. Like typical siblings, they do not always agree, but Eren will usually not stop
Mikasa from doing what she wants, so long as it is within reason. He also seems to harbor
somewhat of an inferiority complex towards her, due to her outstripping him in both strength
and battle skill. This is further compounded by her desire to constantly keep tabs on him and
keep him out of trouble - a habit he generally views as annoying. At times, he feels so stifled
by her protectiveness that he openly lashes out at her, telling her not to treat him like her "little
brother." Despite this, he will attack anyone and anything that threatens Mikasa, even meeting
a punch from a 14 m class Titan bare-handed simply to protect her. After going across the
sea, Eren asks Mikasa about what he means to her. When she replies that he is family, the
rest of their friends arrive and interrupt them, disappointing Eren. After joining the Yeagerists,
Eren breaks all ties with Mikasa and the Military; when Mikasa tries to bring him around, he
calls her an obedient slave and claims that she has become the thing he hates most in the
world. While this deeply hurts her, she was willing to support Eren when Marley launches a
counterattack on Paradis following the raid on Liberio, but chooses to leave behind the scarf
he gave her years ago. After Eren announces that he has started the Rumbling, Mikasa was
horrified at this revelation, but she was later unable to respond to Annie when she was asked
if she could kill Eren when necessary. Mikasa is still willing to hold out hope for Eren to come
to his senses.
 Armin Arlert - Armin was Eren's closest friend, who inspired him to dream of the world beyond
the Walls (and in doing so, became partially responsible for motivating him to join the Survey
Corps). During their childhood, they were snubbed by other children as well as adults for their
"heretical" ideas. Armin himself is frequently targeted by bullies, whom Eren (sometimes with
 Mikasa in tow) would constantly try to fend off. This pattern would continue into their teenage
years, with Eren leaping into action to save Armin from danger, not caring if he himself is
harmed in the process; the most memorable occasion being the day Eren (sans his left leg)
snatched Armin from a Titan's jaws and got swallowed in his place (losing his left arm in the
process). Despite Armin considering himself as burdensome, Eren greatly appreciates his
quick-wittiness and brilliant judgment (it also did not miss him that Armin's quick thinking had
saved his and Mikasa's lives in 845). Eren's confidence in Armin is so great that he would
entrust him with his life with no hesitation if asked to do so. When Levi forced to revive Armin
or Erwin, Eren desperately pleads Levi to revive Armin, staging a mutiny to try and save his
friend, and when Armin is brought back, Eren rushes toward him with tears of relief flowing
down his face,[291] embracing Armin after he regains consciousness.[292] However, four years
later, some friction has developed between them due to differing opinions on how to deal with
Marley and the other nations. Like Eren's relationship with Mikasa, his friendship with Armin is
presumably shattered after he joins the Yeagerist movement. Later, Armin correctly deduced
that Eren is only pretending to go along with Zeke's plan, realizing that Eren is just using Zeke
to unlock the Founding Titan's powers. After Armin realizes that Eren has started the
Rumbling- shortly before Eren's revelation- he numbly contemplates the consequences with
Jean. Despite this, he is still unsure of even thinking about killing Eren, as demonstrated many
times in his conversations with Annie. Armin still hopes that he and Eren could still discover
the world together.
 Jean Kirstein - As Eren's main rival, his temperament is the very antithesis of Eren's. Where
Eren is hotheaded, he is collected; and Jean is pessimistically pragmatic as Eren is idealistic.
Jean believed anyone who wished to join the Survey Corps was a suicidal fool, while Eren
regarded those who looked down on the people who wanted to fight the Titans with contempt.
Initially, they are able to resolve their differences in a civil manner despite starting off on the
wrong foot. However, this friendliness was short-lived, and a fierce rivalry budded between
them, with the two constantly provoking each other and getting into fistfights. In addition to
insulting Jean to his face, Eren also seems to be fond of saying Jean has a "horse-face"
behind his back. In the wake of the Battle of Trost, Eren and Jean seem to have set their
differences aside and stopped antagonizing each other. Though they still quarrel as much as
before, their animosity has noticeably lessened. After Eren reveals his genocide plan, Jean
was willing to justify Eren's actions as a measure of self-defence; sacrificing the rest of the
world for Paradis' safety.
 Levi Ackerman - As humanity's most formidable soldier and Eren's superior officer, Levi
commands great respect and admiration from him. Eren bears no grudge against Levi for
beating him before the entire court during his trial, recognizing that it had been a necessary
measure to secure his life. Aware of the vast gap in experience between them, Eren strives to
learn as much as he can from Levi, heeding his advice with little hesitation and trusting his
judgment. During the thirty days he shared living space with Levi's squad, he also seems to
have well understood Levi's standards of cleanliness. A notable example of this is when he is
shown diligently cleaning his new squad's base (and fretting over the somewhat slovenly
habits of his peers) in anticipation of Levi's arrival. As Eren has spent more time with Levi and
witnessed how harsh he can be to his peers, he is able to marvel at and encourage the notion
of punching Levi back.[293] Later, Levi becomes a sort of mentor towards Eren, giving him
advice in his times of doubt. As their trust in each other grows, Levi becomes more patient
with Eren and forgives his mistakes, nurturing his growth as a soldier, and as a vanguard for
humanity's hope. In spite of this, Eren would break Levi's trust and respect when he
orchestrated the raid on Liberio, physically reprimanding his insubordination and arresting him
after the battle.
 Erwin Smith - Eren briefly meets Erwin as a child the day Shingashina when the Survey Corps
returns from a mission. Erwin sees Eren in the crowd smiling in awe but Erwin looked away in
sadness due to the heavy losses sustained. Five years later Eren is officially introduced to
Erwin following the Battle of Trost and Erwin expressed interest in recruiting hin into the
 Survey Corps so they could reclaim Wall Maria, and acted in Eren's defense during his
hearing. Though Eren was at first discomforted by Erwin's willingness to take big risks and
endanger lives he gradually came to understand Erwin's actions when faced with increasingly
dangerous threats to humanity.
 Reiner Braun - Eren once described Reiner as being like an older brother to him, and admired
him as a "strong, capable guy." The two were shown to have trained together, and Reiner
taught him the importance of the duty soldiers have to protect the weak. It can be said that he
was the one Eren looked up to the most in his career as a soldier. However, Eren eventually
came to despise Reiner upon learning of his true identity as the Armored Titan and began to
view him as a disgusting traitor who had no right to be alive. He planned to slaughter him
along with Bertolt Hoover in the slowest, most excruciating manner possible in repayment for
all that they had done. When they meet again four years later, Eren's contempt towards
Reiner seems to have mellowed to some degree, expressing to Reiner that it is good that he
had managed to return to his hometown. In return, Reiner was shocked by Eren's presence
and could barely say a word to him.[294] Eren expresses a newfound sympathy towards
Reiner after learning the truth about Reiner's mission within the Walls and the world's hatred
towards Eldians and experiencing the same infiltration mission within Marley that Reiner
carried out years before. Eren even admits he and Reiner are the same, driven by freedom for
their people and manipulated by corrupt leaders for the actions of their ancestors. Eren even
admits his own anger towards Reiner and Bertolt (and that his promise to make their deaths
as miserable and painful as possible) was rash due to him not knowing their reasons why.
Despite this Eren still tries to kill him, although implies it is not out of malicious intent but
because they are on opposing sides of the war.[295] It is revealed that Eren thinks they are the
same but he internally denies this and considers himself lower than Reiner.
 Bertolt Hoover - When Eren first met Bertolt, he had some reservations about him and
seemed to think of Bertolt as "taciturn." Regardless, Eren came to trust Bertolt and saw him as
a valued friend. After his true identity as the Colossus Titan was revealed, Eren was horrified
and despised Bertolt for causing the death of his mother; this inspired Eren to seek
vengeance on all Titans with Bertolt being the main target of his mission. He was only further
infuriated by Bertolt's cold response and became bent on making his death as miserable and
painful as possible. Eren eventually made good on this promise, personally ripping Bertolt out
of the Colossus Titan and severing his limbs, leaving him helpless against the pure Titan of
Armin Arlert. Despite this, however, Eren ultimately did not revel in Bertolt's death; rather, he
silently cried with a stunned expression on his face as he watched him being eaten. Four
years later when Eren meets Reiner again, he admits his promise and anger towards him and
Bertolt was misguided since he did not understand their motives at the time. Eren also seems
to acknowledge in his forgiveness towards Reiner that Bertolt was as much a victim as they
were.
 Annie Leonhart - Eren greatly admired Annie, and was trained in her unique fighting style
during their years as trainees. He considered her to be a kind person beneath her cold
exterior and credited her with making him aware of the contradictions within the military
system. However, he was eventually horrified to learn of her identity as the Female Titan.
Even as Annie herself transformed in front of him, a part of Eren refused to accept her
betrayal; and he became so conflicted that he was initially unable to summon the will to fight
her (Mikasa even went so far as to suggest that his hesitation was due to him harboring
"special feelings" for her). Even as he went toe-to-toe with Annie, he continued to brood over
what had driven her to slaughter their comrades and displayed far less anger and contempt
towards her than he did for Bertolt or Reiner.
 Historia Reiss - Initially, Eren did not interact with Historia very much, and had in fact secretly
disliked her because he felt she was a phony. However, once her true identity was revealed
and her demeanor began to change, Eren began to see her as more "honest" and warmed up
to her. He even accepted being eaten by her if it meant the annihilation of all Titans, which
shows deep confidence in her.[296] Despite this, he still wishes for Historia to lead her own life.
 Eren omitted that coming into contact with a royal blooded Titan would enable him to use the
Founding Titan's abilities, fearing that sharing information he considered uncertain at the time
would cause Historia to be turned into a Titan. Eren also argues against the plan of Historia
being used to birth more heirs to the royal bloodline and becoming the next inheritor of the
Beast Titan, showing that Eren cares for her deeply. However, he was not above pressuring
Historia into not divulging his genocide plan, showing duplicity in his actions.
 Connie Springer - As members of the same trainee squad, Eren and Connie shared many
experiences together and get on well with each other. In the early days of their training,
Connie was among the trainees who eagerly questioned Eren about the Titans' invasion in
845. Though he only enlisted in order to have a good reputation in his home village and
initially wished to join the Military Police Brigade, Connie was so moved by Eren's passionate
conviction to defeat the Titans that in the end, he decided to join the Survey Corps instead.
Though their backgrounds are different, the two now find themselves sharing a similar plight.
Both their families and homes are reduced to little more than memories, and each carries the
burden of his mother's cruel fate. However, following Sasha's death and Eren's seeming
indifference in having a hand in it, Connie starts viewing Eren contemptuously and sees him
as a different person from the one he befriended, and states he is ready to kill Eren should the
need arise.
 Hange Zoë - When Eren first met Hange, he was put off by their obsession with him, finding it
creepy. After learning about Hange's work on Sonny and Bean, however, and Hange's reason
for being so obsessed with Titans and change (which he could relate to), he became one of
the first people to be interested in their work and was saddened by the deaths of the Titan test
subjects (although he still found Hange weird, especially after they kept him up the entirety of
one night). After four years, their relationship sours when Hange noted that Eren's actions in
Liberio made the entire Paradis Island a target to Marley; furthermore, Hange expressed
anger over how Eren abused the Survey Corps' trust in him for his own selfish desires. Their
relationship took another blow when Eren physically assaulted Hange, slamming them against
the bars of his cell after returning from Marley and being arrested for his actions.
 Marco Bott - Eren had great respect for him, and recognized his tendency to think of the group
before himself. He also stated he would have liked to be on his squad, and considered him a
good leader. Upon learning of Marco's death, Eren was initially in a state of disbelief and was
visibly stricken when Jean reaffirmed that the news was indeed true.
 Petra Ral - Among the members of the squad assigned to protect Eren, Petra seemed to be
the one closest to him. She was among the least eccentric and most friendly of the members,
and Eren admired her not only for her skill but for her open acceptance of him as a comrade
as well. Witnessing her demise at the hands of the Female Titan was a devastating blow to
him, and he remains remorseful of making the decision that led to her death.
 Oluo Bozado - Of all the members of Levi's squad, Oluo gave Eren the toughest time, often
badmouthing and blustering at him. Despite his senior's somewhat obnoxious and boastful
demeanor, Eren still respected Oluo as a top-tier soldier. In return, Oluo once threatened Eren
but saw his mistake and apologized for it though he said so in his arrogant ways. His violent
death was perhaps the trigger event that caused Eren to finally transform into his Titan form to
stop the Female Titan in its tracks. Along with the other members of Levi's special squad, his
death still haunts Eren.
 Eld Jinn and Gunther Schultz - Eren admired the two soldiers; both in their skills, serious
attitude and devotion to humanity by facing the Titans. Their deaths partly fueled Eren's
rampage against the Female Titan, and he is still filled with regret over not choosing to fight
while they were still alive.
 Zeke Yeager - Zeke is Eren's older half-brother.[297] Though they initially did not have much
interaction, Zeke told Eren that he understands him and wants him to believe him that they
both were victims of their father's brainwashing and said that someday he will come to save
him.[298] Eren was very surprised Zeke had a resemblance to his father and wondered about
the connection until he saw his father's memories and discovered their relationship, becoming
 shocked that his father had a previous family. Of particular note, Zeke's turning on their father
indirectly led to Eren's birth and he also learned that Zeke's mother was the Titan that killed
Eren's mother. Four years later, Eren meets his brother in secret, learning numerous secrets
and creating a mutual understanding between them.[299] The two now work together, and plan
to meet once again to set in motion their secret plan.[300] However, Eren later reveals he lied
to Zeke and ultimately refuses to go along with the latter's euthanasia plan. Following the
revelation that Eren used the future memory inheritance ability of the Attack Titan to compel
their father into killing the Reiss family and steal the Founding Titan, Zeke becomes
disillusioned with his brother.
 Falco Grice - Eren seems to have taken a liking to Falco as seen with his friendly demeanor
when he saw Falco in the hospital and often spent time talking with the young Warrior
candidate; regardless, Eren had no issues with manipulating him into unwittingly send
messages to the Survey Corps for him. Despite his dismissive nature towards Falco after his
true motives are revealed, Eren does exhibit some regret that Falco was among those who
unknowingly consumed Zeke's spinal fluid.
 Mr. Yeager - Eren saw his grandfather through his father's memories but what opinion he had
of him was unknown. Four years later, he met his grandfather in person while disguising
himself as a wounded soldier. He was surprised by the latter's appearance but kept it to
himself to avoid suspicion. In a talk, Mr. Yeager appeared to be aware of Eren having Falco
do errands for him and told him to stop as it might bring trouble for his family. Mr. Yeager soon
confided in him about his past which led his son to form a movement and slowly blame himself
for raising him to follow in his footsteps. Eren was solemn at his grandfather's outburst but
appeared to understand the choices of his father.
 Floch Forster - Eren did not think highly of Floch due to his insistence that Erwin be saved
during the Battle of Shiganshina instead of Armin.[301] However, he would later set aside any
prior animosity, allowing the two to work together as part of the Yeagerists. Eren would put
great trust in Floch, confiding in his genocide plan long before its execution.[302]
 Yelena - Eren shares Yelena's concern regarding Marley's desire to destroy the Eldians and
works along with her to take over the Eldian military. He is willing to hear her opinion,[303] but
insists that he is not being controlled and is following his own sense of judgment.[304] Eren
seemed to follow Yelena's instructions, but his complicity in her and Zeke's plan would turn
out to be ploy, and Yelena's trust in him evaporated as she witnessed the start of the
Rumbling.

 This proved to be true after Eren declared Armin as being controlled by Bertolt, and
through their fight after Eren declared he has always hated Mikasa.
 The name "Eren" is of Cultural Ethnic Turkish origin. Its exact meaning and description is "He
who progresses/has reached towards divine maturity and sacred wisdom". It can also be
interpreted as a "saint" or "holy person." "Eren" could also stand for the German word "Ehre"
(plural "Ehren"), which means honor.
 Eren's surname, Yeager, is an anglicized form of the German surname "Jäger," meaning
"hunter."
 Eren's name is believed to have come from his father's compatriot, Eren Kruger.[332] He also
uses his last name, Kruger, when he pretends to be an injured soldier while infiltrating Marley.
 According to Armin Arlert, the 104th Trainee Squad nicknamed him the "Suicidal Blockhead" (
死に急ぎ野郎 Shi ni isogi yarō?, lit. the bastard who is in a hurry to die).
 When speaking about Titans, Eren had the habit of using -hiki (the counter suffix for small
animals) instead of -tai (the counter for large animals), signifying his deep contempt for them.
Since learning the truth behind the origins of the Titans, it is presumed he has changed his
views on them.
 He has the highest Titan kill record by far of all the former graduates of the 104th Training
Corps, though he has killed only one Titan in human form with his vertical equipment abilities,
and the rest have been killed using his Titan abilities. In human form, the most kills belong to
Mikasa.
 According to Isayama, if the 104th Training Corps had an arm wrestling competition, Eren
would be evenly matched with Jean Kirstein.[333]
 Hajime Isayama stated in an interview that due to the fact that he and Eren are "polar
opposites," he had a hard time writing for the character until around the fourth volume of the
manga. He claimed, however, that he was not truly able to understand Eren's character until
he heard Yūki Kaji's portrayal of him.[334]
 Hajime Isayama stated in an interview that he based Eren's Titan form off of the Japanese
martial artist Yūshin Okami, paraphrasing it to be the "ideal physique of a middleweight mixed
martial artist."[335]
  Isayama has also identified Takanori Gomi's southpaw fighting style as a model used
for Eren's Titan and the way it fights.[336]

originally intended for Eren to have known all along that he was a Titan, but scratched the
idea.[337]
 In the game Age of Gunslingers Online, a special Titan Mode was made as a tribute to the
series. It features Eln, an NPC modeled after Eren and voiced by Yūki Kaji. A trailer of this
mode can be viewed here. There is also a special skin for the Dual Pistol class available for
purchase.
 Eren ranked first in the Akiba Souken Shingeki no Kyojin online character popularity poll.[338]
 Isayama said he was skeptical about the importance of bloodlines when coming up with Eren,
which is why he made him someone not blessed with natural talent and the polar opposite of a
chosen talented protagonist.[339]
 In a 2013 blog post Isayama revealed that he had selected "Otoko wa Romandaze! Takeda-
kun" by Shinsei Kamattechan as a character song for Eren.[340]
 Isayama has stated that he has struggled in the past to make Eren feel "alive" when writing
and has called the character "a slave to the story [of Attack on Titan]."[341]
 Because of this, Isayama has stated that he did not expect Eren to be popular with
readers and has cited his popularity as being a greater surprise than any other
character's.
