Kaney Ackerman
At the end of chapter 57, when he appears before Levi and starts shooting, the last panel has Levi yelling "Kaney!"

So that's his first name, I bet. Should the article name be changed or should we wait until the next chapter for confirmation? Noktisu (talk) 08:26, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

I think we're waiting until the official release, since even the fan translators have expressed confusion over the correct spelling of his name. It could be "Kaney" or "Kain" or something similar, so we'll see how Kodansha translates it. --Harostar (talk) 09:08, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

It could simply be what Levi called him back in the day, they were obviously friends at some point. I know thats illogical but comsidering how the past 10 chapters have been a poorly written mess in absolutely every facet of narrative writing, it really isnt farfetched

Levi's surname
I read in the article that Levi wasn't surprised that his last name is 'Ackerman'. But I haven't seen that in the manga that he was confronted with his last name. And I'm up to date with the manga. Or have I missed that? I read the latest 20 chapter all over again but again, I haven't seen it. 77.249.94.199 00:23, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Mistranslation in Trivia
The trivia claims that Kenny had the nickname "Wooly" for Uri Reiss. "Wooly" is actually just a mistranslation, and this detail should be removed from the trivia. GodKingReiss (talk) 08:46, December 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * If you have proof that something is incorrect, then by all means correct/remove it. I'm not sure where that edit came from, but I don't recall seeing it when I read the chapter. So if you know the correct translation, please add it with a reference as well, so others will know. EternalLocket (talk) 09:02, December 21, 2015 (UTC)
