Eren Yeager becoming the main character of Attack on Titan who plays a very important role as well as extraordinary character development.

From initially having a cheerful, optimistic personality, and always caring about his friends around him, he changed into someone who is quiet, cruel, and indifferent.

As a child, Eren had to witness a very tragic event, where he had to watch his mother being eaten by a titan. This made Eren ambitious to kill all the titans by joining the scout troop.

During his time in the scout troop, Eren finally learned the secret behind the titans that threatened the safety of the Eldian Nation. Thus, he considered all humans outside the walls as enemies that must be destroyed.

This background is what makes Eren change into a figure who is hungry for power. In fact, he managed to master three types of titans, namely the Attack Titan, War Hammer Titan, and Founding Titan.

Meanwhile, the power of the Founding Titan plays a very important role in completing Eren's mission to destroy all humanity outside the walls. Because, its power can control all the titans in the world.

Unfortunately, this power can only be used by descendants who have royal blood and Eren does not meet these requirements.

Until finally, Eren met his half-brother, Zeke Yeager, who had royal blood and succeeded in activating the power of the Founding Titan by doing Rumbling.

However, Eren's plan to wipe out all of humanity was thwarted by his friends and Eren died at the hands of Mikasa.

Mikasa Ackermann

The next main character of Attack on Titan is Mikasa Ackermann. Meanwhile, Mikasa also has an important role in the life of the main character, Eren Jeager, who also had a tragic incident in his childhood.

As a child, Mikasa also had to witness both of her parents die at the hands of robbers. Mikasa, who was kidnapped at that time, was successfully saved by Eren and his father, Grisha Jeager, then invited to live together.

After further investigation, Mikasa is a descendant of Ackerman, which is one of the strongest clans in Attack on Titan. In fact, her strength is equal to 100 ordinary soldiers.

Furthermore, Mikasa always follows Eren wherever he goes. In fact, she even joined Eren to join the scout troop.

During her time in the scout troop, Mikasa always protected Eren from all kinds of dangers. In the episode Warrior (Season 2), Mikasa managed to protect Eren from seduction. Reiner and Berthold who at that time wanted to force him to go to Marley.

Even though in the end Eren was kidnapped by them, Mikasa looked very tough and brave in that scene.

Armin Arlert

Just like Mikasa, Armin Arlert is also Eren's childhood friend. Wherever Eren and Mikasa go, Armin is always by their side.

With his small stature and weak physique, Armin is always an easy target for pranks by people who are stronger than him.

However, Armin has a very intelligent brain, deep analysis, and is also able to make decisions in times of need.

Even the attempt to take over Wall Maria would not have succeeded without Armin's insight into Reiner's position inside the wall. With his genius tactics, Eren was even able to defeat Berthold who was then transforming into the Colossal Titan.

Thanks to his brain's intelligence, Armin has an important role in resolving all the conflicts in the story.

Until finally, Armin was trusted by Levi Ackerman to inherit the Colossal Titan shortly after Eren succeeded in defeating Berthold, while also filling the position of Erwin Smith (Commander of the Scout Troops) who at that time had to die in the battle for Wall Maria.

Grisha Yeager

The main character who is no less important is Grisha Yeager, who is the father of Eren and also Zeke. Grisha's decision to enter the wall and kill the royal family is the beginning of the disaster.

Initially, Grisha was an Eldian descendant who lived in exile in the Marley Nation. Then, he decided to join a special group that opposed Marley secretly.

Then, Grisha married Dina Fritz who had royal blood in the group and was blessed with a child named Zeke Yeager.

Due to Zeke's actions in leaking the group to the Marley government, Grisha and Dina had to undergo punishment. However, Grisha managed to survive and inherit the Attack Titan, while Dina was transformed into the Smiling Titan.

Finally, Grisha shouldered the burden of entering the walls and taking the Founding Titan from the kingdom inside the walls. He succeeded in doing so while building a family with a woman named Carla.

From that relationship, Carla gave birth to a child named Eren Yeager. In one incident, Grisha made Eren have to inherit the Attack Titan and the Founding Titan by turning Eren into a titan and eating him.

From there, Eren was able to gain his powers as the Attack Titan and the Founding Titan, which was the beginning of Eren's ambition to defeat all the titans and destroy all humans outside the walls.

Zeke Yeager

Without any interference from Zeke Yeager, Eren can't activate his Founding Titan ability. Yes, we have mentioned it above, that the Founding Titan's ability is to control all the titans in the world.

In order to activate it, the Founding Titan must be used by someone with royal blood. In this case, Eren must make physical contact with Zeke who has royal blood to awaken his power.

This finally came true, where Eren was finally able to awaken the power of the Founding Titan and perform a rumbling with the help of 100 thousand Colossal Titans who were ready to trample anything in their path.

In addition, Zeke has inherited the power of the Beast Titan and has the ability to transform people into titans through his screams. The condition is that the person has drunk his spinal fluid.
