Bertholdt Hoover (ベルトルト・フーバー) is a 1st year Titan Junior High School student.

Appearance
The tallest in Eren's class. He also wears the same uniform as every male student in Junior High.

Personality
He is the tallest in class, but is always hidden behind Reiner’s shadow and does not stand out. His gaze is always directed towards Annie, and is sooner known to have feelings for her. He also has a great talent for arts.

Story
Bertholdt arrives to school on his first day and introduces himself to the class. Later, he is called out to the entrance ceremony where their principal, the Colossal Titan "welcomes" them by kicking the wall open. Bertholdt finds his friends in the school courtyard. He follows his friends to locate the Attack Junior High Scout Regiment, where he meets odd upperclassmen who welcome him into the club, despite being in a different one already.
