Eren is a character whose stats are often undervalued except for his willpower, but even with just his physical abilities excluding Titan shifting, he ranks among the top in the series. Considering the true identities of the 1st through 4th ranks of the 104th Training Corps, it is no exaggeration to say he possesses top-tier skills among ordinary humans. It has been re-evaluated that if he had trained under equal conditions from the start, Eren might have been the top graduate. Student

Evaluated as having the combat power of 100 soldiers, she is the undisputed ace of the Survey Corps and the second strongest force after Levi. It is said that the moment she realized the cruelty of the world after killing for the first time against human traffickers, her Ackerman powers awakened, her trembling stopped, and she gained perfect control over her body. Her strength is evident in the scene where she subdues the traffickers trying to kill Eren; she crushes a knife handle with her grip, causes the floorboards to collapse under her feet while jumping, and draws enough power to pierce a heart with a blade in one go.

The ultimate joker and wild card of the Survey Corps. Along with Erwin Smith and Hange Zoë, he is the brain of the Survey Corps. He is a childhood friend of the protagonist Eren. He is the one who inspired Eren's longing for the outside world by excitedly telling him about giant salt lakes, water of fire, fields of sand, and lands of ice from a book his grandfather had hidden. Armin himself has believed since childhood that there is no eternal safety in the world, and his dream is to travel the outside world with Eren. After losing his hometown to the Colossal Titan's attack, he enlists in the Training Corps with Mikasa and Eren. Student

In the anime, Hange first appeared briefly in a scene before Erwin Smith discovered a Titan early in episode 1, but their full debut with dialogue starts from episode 9. The sight of Hange attempting to converse with Titans even during battle is a highlight. Hange's cheerful tone and cute character design contrast with the desperate battlefield situation, creating an indescribable sense of the surreal. Science Teacher

One of the few geniuses in the series and the undisputed top strategist for Paradis Island. Despite the unprecedented situation of an unknown enemy like the Marleyan Warrior Unit infiltrating, he detected the presence of the infiltrators faster than anyone else. His ability to handle situations flexibly and quickly without being bound by conventional ideas—such as deceiving his own allies to set a trap to capture them—is top-notch. History Teacher

Raised in Ragako Village in the southern district of Wall Rose. A graduate of the 104th Training Corps like Eren, he graduated 8th overall. His family includes his parents, younger brother Martin Springer, and younger sister Sunny Springer. Though he once arrogantly refused Eren's request for help early in their training days, he is fundamentally sociable and has strong camaraderie. Student

Because of her terrified appearance in front of Titans, she is often perceived as having a cowardly personality, but that is actually a very normal reaction shown by most people in the series. Along with Jean and Connie, she chose the Survey Corps for humanity despite her fear, and she is a kind person suited for a soldier, as shown when she saved a child she didn't know from a Titan while unarmed and caught a falling, unconscious Samuel. She serves as the mood maker of the 104th with her characteristic brightness and sociability. Student

During his training days, he was a cynical individualist who prioritized personal safety, career advancement, and comfort. He was criticized by Keith Shadis for his mindset as a soldier, being told he was "merely venting his emotions." Student

Characteristics: Because the only thing known to the public is his unapproachable and monstrous strength, he is revered as a flawless hero, but in reality, he is irritable, foul-mouthed, and particularly obsessive about cleanliness. The author says it's not exactly mysophobia, but... he emphasizes cleaning to a pathological degree, and his face reflexively contorts if even a bit of Titan blood gets on him. Seeing the old Survey Corps headquarters was dirty from disuse, he ordered a massive cleanup with a look of extreme displeasure similar to when facing a Titan, and led the cleaning himself. When checking the cleaning status of the New Levi Squad's headquarters, he showed an extraordinary obsession by checking for dust under desks that no one else would notice. Speech style: Blunt and authoritative. PE Teacher
