Mikasa's father (Anime)

Mikasa's father (ミカサの父) was the biological father of Mikasa Ackermann and husband of Mikasa's mother. He and his family lived in a forest within the Shiganshina District.

Appearance
A man appearing to be in his mid 30's. He had short blond hair with gold colored eyes, as well as a little stubble on his chin. The look of his clothing suggests that he was a commoner.

Personality
He seemed to be a lighthearted, but hard working man. When asked by Mikasa how babies were made, he jokingly claimed he did not know and suggested she ask Dr. Jaeger when he arrives.

History
It is hinted that Mikasa's father, or a close relative of his, was driven into poverty due to their business failing. As such, Mikasa's father and his family lived in the woods within the Shiganshina District to avoid persecution from the government. He hunted, and most likely, helped with the gardening as a means to support his family.

While waiting for Dr. Jaeger to arrive, his life, as well as his wife's life, was cut short. All due to bandits who intended to sell both his wife and daughter on the black market, due to them being the last Asians. He was stabbed one time after opening his door, and died before having a chance to realize what happened. Later his body is found by Dr. Jaeger when he comes to visit, stating that he and his wife had been dead for hours.

Lost in the cruel world
During the Struggle for Trost, Mikasa experiences a different reality where her parents are alive. In the year 844, Dr. Jaeger visits the Ackermanns for a checkup on the mother, who turns out to be expecting. When Dr. Jaeger forgets his hat in their house, Mikasa's father sends his daughter to Shiganshina District to deliver it back to him. At a later checkup, he is distraught at the news that his wife has an infection, and is told they will be moving to a place closer to Dr. Jaeger's house.
