THE MOST POPULAR CHARACTERS IN AOT
17. Gabi Braun
You know what? It’s quite challenging to speak in a poetic tone, actually. Well, anyway, let’s get back to our topic. I know most of you might scoff, roll your eyes, or even drop your phones and say, “What?” But, believe it or not, one of the most popular characters in the series is none other than Gabi Braun.
The hate for Gabi is too intense; you can toss me over the wall right now. We all know what she did to cause this storm, but is it entirely her fault? Or is she just another victim of the cruel world? Speaking of hate, why won’t ya take a look on one of the most hated manga MCs!
Gabi is an Eldian raised in Marley, born in lies, and raised in the ways of war. She’s a candidate to be a warrior – trained to possess the power to obey and destroy. A child raised to be a monster without understanding the reason she’s fighting for.
At first, I felt that same hate, but after learning her story and reasons, I’ve learned to forgive that kid.
16. Ymir
The most mysterious and powerful being in the AOT story is also the one with the saddest tale to tell. Her life was a never-ending cycle of servitude and her death was no different, for even in the afterlife she remained bound by chains.
Her power made her a captive of her own abilities, and her heart was held prisoner by unrequited love. Despite this, she remained steadfast in her loyalty until the very end, offering herself to the one she held dear. But at what cost? The tragedy lies in the fact that her love was never reciprocated, and yet she continued to give without hesitation.
It is this unyielding devotion that endears her to people’s hearts. Even though she knew that her love would never be returned, she remained faithful until her final breath. To know more about Ymir, better take a look at her wiki!
15. Grisha Yeager
A father who sacrifices everything for his son’s future and for the world. But did he do the right thing? Is it noble to kill a family for the greater good? Did he create a hero or a villain?
Grisha is a crucial character in Attack on Titan. Without his sacrifices and gruesome acts, we wouldn’t have the amazing story we have today.
One reason why he’s popular is the mystery he left in Season one. Everyone was curious about what was in the basement and the key that held the answers to the world beyond the wall. But if there was no war or conflict between Eldia and Marley, Grisha might have been the best father ever. Speaking of mysterious we have gather all of the most mysterious manga characters of all time!
14. Zeke Yeager
The son of Grisha Yeager and half-brother of Eren Yeager, also known for his Titan form as the Beast Titan. He is the most badass villain in the series, with his Titan power and cunning traits, making him to be reckoned with.
Some of you may hate this guy, but for me, I adore villains. They may be a little odd or off, but they are the ones who keep the story running and exciting! Wanna hear a few words about Zeke? Go check out some of his best quotes!
13. Pieck Finger
I was surprised to discover that the fearsome four-legged titan, known as the Cart Titan, is actually a stunning beauty in human form. Pieck Finger’s appearance caught us off guard as we initially saw her as a menacing, pinkish man-eating killing machine.
Pieck has a tendency to appear out of nowhere and save the day, which gives her character a sense of deus ex machina. One of the best examples of this is when she rescued Zeke from the wrath of Captain Levi.
It’s no surprise that Pieck is a famous character in the series due to her ability to carry an immense amount of weaponry on her back. Let’s be honest, that scene where she reveals her weaponry is absolutely epic!
12. Bertholdt Hoover
One of the reasons why Ber… Berht, darn it! You get the point! He’s the Colossal Titan and is well-known because he was the giant, flayed, and naked beast that kicked down the wall of Maria and caused chaos. That might be a good reason why he’s popular!
But before that shocking revelation, we all know that Bertholdt is not a talkative guy and isn’t great at expressing his feelings. Aside from being a walking dynamite, he also has a unique ability to predict the weather especially when he’s sleeping.
11. Reiner Braun
Reiner is the Armored Titan, another prime suspect in the wall-breaking incident! Kids these days… first, they paint the walls, now they destroy them. Why do I sound like a grandpa?
But aside from being a heavily armored monster, he was once a member of the Survey Corps. This gave us a chance to witness a different side of him! We saw him protect his squad mates, and his passion and unwavering dedication make Reiner a reliable big brother figure to many!
10. Jean Kristein
Jean is often referred to as “Horse face,” but despite his facial features, fans can’t help but love him. Why? Because aside from being a badass, he is empathetic and kind-hearted. Although he can be a bit loud at times, it’s one of his endearing qualities.
Despite his desire for a peaceful life, he joined the Survey Corps out of compassion for humanity’s future, risking his life on dangerous missions. During these missions, he also displays leadership qualities, making him an admirable character.
9. Historia/ Krista
Another former member of the Survey Corps, and now a queen! Attack on Titan is full of secrets and surprises. We love her character development throughout the series.
What more could you want from a royal who fights for her people? She’s not just a brain, but also a powerhouse of muscle! She’s smart and brave, two of the best qualities a queen can have. Long live the Queen! That just reminds me what if I tell you that we have list of anime characters with yellow hair!
8. Annie Leonheart
The mystery of the Female Titan had us gripping the edge of the walls! And when it was finally revealed that Annie was the one behind that massive, skinless lady-titan, I couldn’t help but shake my head in disbelief.
However, Annie’s enigmatic identity is not the only reason why she’s such a memorable character. Her impressive physique, sharp wit, fierce attitude, and exceptional fighting style all contribute to making her an A-tier character for me!
7. Sasha Blouse
Oh no, hold on, let me get a tissue. Oh, sheesh… Where’s Niccolo? You better not tell him that we’re talking about Sasha or he’ll end up way worse than me! We all miss our Potato Girl. We won’t get to see those funny, gluttonous moments of hers anymore. She was a strong character, being a hunter and a scout was badass in my book. But people just come and go… We have to let her go, guys. She’s at rest now. Don’t blame anyone or anything for everything. It is tragic, but it seems that this is for the best as well. Farewell, our beloved potato girl!
6. Hange Zoe
The Titan expert, our genius Hange Zoe! Sorry folks, but the first time I saw her, I thought she was crazy. Yet, I was wrong. If I ever had a chance to meet her in real life, I would gladly offer myself up just like what Morblit did.
We love the way she reacts to things, especially when it comes to Titans. I swear, when you read this sentence, you just heard that menacing laugh! HAHA! Don’t worry, you’re still sane. She’s just phenomenal, that’s all.
Aside from having that weird obsession, we also love her personality – a woman who’s dedicated to her cause, funny, smart, and friendly all at the same time. It makes Hange Zoe one of the best characters in AOT! But how did Hange Zoe die?
5. Erwin Smith
If you have no idea who this man is, then I don’t know if we can be friends anymore! Haha, just kidding. But seriously, Erwin Smith is a legendary figure in the AOT universe.
The saddest thing about Erwin is that he didn’t live to see his theory proven right. His father’s theory was right all along, but Erwin never got to witness it. That scene is one of the best episodes by the way!
Erwin is always calm, cool, and collected, and aside from being a master strategist, what we admire most about him is how much he dedicated his life to serving the people. His final words, “Shinzou Wo Sasageyo!” will always burn in our hearts.
4. Armin Arlert
One of the main characters in the story and the best buddy of the one and only Eren Yeager, Armin might look frail and all, but he never runs from a fight. He is, in fact, the bravest character in the series! Being a genius, loyal, and kind-hearted man, he rightfully deserves a seat among the most popular characters in Attack on Titan. Still some fan might be confuse if Armin is a boy or girl?
3. Eren Yeager
Now, here’s the main protagonist of the series, or at least, he was for a time. No need to sugarcoat anything here, we all know that he ended up becoming a genocidal monster. But that’s what makes Eren so iconic, and we love the character development he went through.
At first, he was a crybaby, but the way he dealt with the situations presented in the manga and anime was phenomenal. Going from protagonist to antagonist was incredibly well-written. But what if we tell you that the rumbling is not real?
2. Mikasa Ackerman
Who ain’t gonna fall in love with the most badass character in Attack on Titan, the coolest and the most loyal waifu that we’ve witnessed! Mikasa has always been our favorite. She’s strong, dependent, and she will never give up no matter what!
1. Levi Ackerman
The man, the legend, Levi Ackerman! woohoo! I’ve nailed that line! Wherever and whenever you go, Levi will keep flying all over your screen. You tell me what might not be the reason why Levi shouldn’t be on this list? See… NONE!
He might look like a wee-looking teenager, but this man can kill someone who is ten times larger than him! Y’all ain’t believing me? Then you can ask Zeke about that. You can also checked some of his powerful quotes!
He might look cold and all but that doesn’t mean he’s a heartless monster, we’ve seen how he reacts whenever a friend dies right in front of him. We love the way he always keeps his promise, you can also ask Zeke about that too hehe. He promised Erwin that he’s gonna kill that hairy beast and so he did.
