Attack on Titan: Crimson Bow and Arrow

Age: 15 Birthdate: February 10 Height: 170 cm (5'7") Weight: 68 kg (150 lbs) Position: 104th Trainees Squad, Scouting Legion Graduation rank: 1st  Mikasa is Eren's adoptive sister and mutual childhood friend of Armin. Mikasa shares an unbreakable bond with Eren following events in their past, and rushes to protect him whenever he is in danger. Mikasa possesses impressive fighting skill and strength even as a child.  As a teen, Mikasa is considered a genius among all the army trainees and is incredibly skilled at combat and agility. She constantly worries for Eren's well-being and lives to protect him.  When Mikasa was younger, her parents were murdered and she was taken hostage to be sold into slavery. Eren managed to find her and killed two of the three kidnappers by catching them off guard, despite only being a child. The third kidnapper discovered the scene and began strangling Eren while holding him in the air. Mikasa, trembling, grabbed Eren's knife from the floor. In that split second, Mikasa came to terms with the cruelty of the world, gaining perfect control of her own body and using that strength to kill the kidnapper in a single strike through the heart—killing him to save Eren.  In the aftermath of this trauma, Mikasa asked Dr. Jeager where she could possibly go from here. She was cold and had no place left to call home. Eren gave Mikasa his red scarf and Dr. Jeager welcomed her into their family. Because of Eren's heroics and this gesture, she feels she owes her life to the Jeagers. She continues to wear Eren's scarf from that day into adulthood, and they are inseparable.

Age: 15 Birthday: November 3 Height: 163 cm (5'4") Weight: 55 kg (121 lbs) Position: 104th Trainees Squad, Scouting Legion Graduation Rank: Outside the top 10  Eren's best friend, he is physically weak yet emotionally strong. Even though lacking in actual combat, Armin is a genius on theoretical courses and can make plans even under extreme pressure. Even so, Armin kept on thinking that he is weak. He himself does not notice the things he does for Eren and Mikasa, and believes himself to be completely incompetent and hates himself for having to rely of Eren and Mikasa.

Armin Arlert

 Eren is Shingeki no Kyojin's protagonist. His adoptive sister, Mikasa, notes on numerous occasions that he acts on impulse without thinking things through, and she often pulls/carries/throws him when he starts fighting with others to protect him from himself. Along with Mikasa, he tends to spend his free time with their mutual friend, Armin.  His father is a doctor (whom is well respected by Hannes and potentially many more) whilst his mother is a housewife. When Eren was a child, he saved Mikasa from being sold off when a visit to her home with his father. Three men—killers of her parents—were in her house, and he killed two of them—one by slitting his throat and the other by charging at with a quickly assembled spear. Mikasa herself killed the third man after Eren urged her to fight whilst the man strangled Eren. After this, he gave Mikasa his scarf and Eren's father adopted Mikasa into their family. Later, when the Colossal Titan broke through Wall Maria the debris from this attack scattered and hurtled towards his home. He could only watch on as his mother—trapped under the rubble of their house—was eaten by a titan. This event lit the fire of revenge within Eren that he would kill every giant and not live a life cowering in fear.  Sometime after this—before the time skip that jumped a few years ahead, to when he became a soldier—his father injected him with something. It's unknown what at this time but it turns out, because of the injection, Eren can utilize the ability to transform into a titan himself (which explains how his limbs were able to regenerate) with side effects of a high fever and massive stamina drain.  Eren has a special titan power called the "Co-ordinates", by which he can direct abnormal titans to attack elsewhere. Note: Eren Yeager is the official English translation by Kodansha.

Eren Yeager

Age: 16 Birthday: July 26 Height: 168 cm (5'6") Weight: 55 kg (121 lbs) Affiliations: 104th Trainees Squad, Scouting Legion Graduation Rank: 9th  Sasha is lightning fast, with uncanny intuition, but her eccentricity makes her unfit for group operations.  A huntress from the mountain Daupa District, she joined after getting into an argument with her father when he told her they might have to give up their traditional lifestyle of hunting in favor of farming to support the large number of refugees moving to the area after the fall of Wall Maria.   She is also an expert with a bow and arrow, revealed when she uses it to take down a three meter Titan single-handedly while defending a child.

Sasha Blouse

Age: 16 Birthday: June 16 Height: 178 cm (5'9") Weight: 70 kg (154 lbs) Affiliations: 104th Trainees Squad, Scouting Legion Graduation Rank: 7th  Marco Bott is a member of the 104th Trainees Squad, and graduated as the 7th ranked trainee in his class. He was assigned to fight the Titans after the breach of Wall Rose, and given command of his own squad.   Personality Marco is an idealistic person, valuing the good of the group above his own interests as well as understanding and coping with his own shortcomings and limitations. The others respected him greatly, and considered him to be a natural leader suited to his dreams of joining the Military Police. Unlike those who join the Military Police for safety and privileges, his reasons of joining it were genuinely faithful. He was shown to be an excellent judge of others, recognizing Jean's potential as a leader and encouraging him to believe in himself. He was also shown to have a talent for preserving order among the other trainees, whether resolving arguments or keeping them calm during battle.  Story Marco is first introduced during the initiation of new recruits, and is intimidated by their instructor after expressing his desire to join the Military Police. He later attempts to maintain order when the recruits question Eren about the attack on Wall Maria, hiding the others when their questions become too upsetting. During his time as a trainee, he befriends Jean Kirschtein and the two were often seen together. He seems to have been one of the only people to recognize Jean's potential, encouraging him to embrace his natural abilities as a leader.  After the Colossal Titan attacked Trost, Marco was assigned command of the 19th Trainee Squad and ordered to support the vanguard forces. He was eventually among the trainees stranded when the retreat order was given, without enough gas to scale the Wall and escape Trost. When Mikasa and Jean rally the others into charging headquarters, which had become surrounded by Titans, Marco is quick to join them. Inside the station, he became vital in Armin's plan to reclaim the overun supply room and leads the main group. Armed with rifles, the recruits acted as bait and lure the seven Titans occupying the room into position. Marco managed to maintain order in the group, keeping everyone calm until they could fire and blind the attacking Titans.  He is later seen among the regrouped forces, attempting to keep order when people like Dazz give into their fear. Marco did his best to comfort them and keep morale high, even when they were ordered to return to Trost. He joined the other recruits up on the Wall, acting as bait to distract the Titans from the main operation involving Eren Yeager. Later, he was among the recruits that head into the city to battle the Titans. There, he helped to rescue Jean when his gear malfunctioned and would eventually join the others in battling the Titans while Eren sealed the hole in Wall Rose.   He dies during the battle for Trost. His death serves to illustrate the grim reality of life for the soldiers, as even the most talented can meet an ignoble end while facing the Titans.  Note: Marco Bott is the official English translation by Kodansha.

Riko Brzenska

Mina appears in Ch. 3. When the Colossal Titan appears outside Trost District, the burst of steam from its body knocks a number of trainees off the Wall. She follows when Eren instructs the other trainees to attack the Colossal Titan. After the second attack of the Colossal Titan, she was assigned to the middle guard along with Eren Yeager and Armin Arlert. Initially tasked with working under the training corps, they eventually were incorporated into the front guard due to the number of titans. Catching the group unaware, a titan lunged at the roof top they were standing on.   When Eren was talking about how killing titans that got in Trost District will get their rank up high, she joined him indicating that she is also signing up for Scouting Legion.   After Eren's leg got bitten off by one of the titans, She and the other two tries to kill the titan that is responible for biting off Eren's leg. However, her Three Dimensional Maneuver Gear's wire was caught by titan's hand and was knocked over to the wall. When she found out where she was, it was too late for her to escape. She was caught by another titan and her face got bitten off.  

Mina Carolina

Franz is a member of the 104th Trainees Squad.  Franz first appears Ch.3 in walking through Trost District with Eren and Hannah. Eren refers to Hannah and Franz as a couple, which they both embarrassedly deny.   At some point following the breach of the Wall by the Colossal Titan, Franz is attacked by a Titan. He is bitten in half and dies.   Armin finds Hannah futilely attempting CPR on what remains of Franz's corpse. He tells her it's useless, and advises her to retreat to the Wall before it's too late.

Franz

Attack on Titan

Centuries ago, mankind was slaughtered to near extinction by monstrous humanoid creatures called titans, forcing humans to hide in fear behind enormous concentric walls. What makes these giants truly terrifying is that their taste for human flesh is not born out of hunger but what appears to be out of pleasure. To ensure their survival, the remnants of humanity began living within defensive barriers, resulting in one hundred years without a single titan encounter. However, that fragile calm is soon shattered when a colossal titan manages to breach the supposedly impregnable outer wall, reigniting the fight for survival against the man-eating abominations.

After witnessing a horrific personal loss at the hands of the invading creatures, Eren Yeager dedicates his life to their eradication by enlisting into the Survey Corps, an elite military unit that combats the merciless humanoids outside the protection of the walls. Based on Hajime Isayama's award-winning manga, Shingeki no Kyojin follows Eren, along with his adopted sister Mikasa Ackerman and his childhood friend Armin Arlert, as they join the brutal war against the titans and race to discover a way of defeating them before the last walls are breached.
