Eren's surname
Can we get some continuity with the surname? I mean, my personal preference would be to go with Jaeger, since I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be Jaeger as in hunter - Yeager just seems to be a poor romanisation of a japan-ised (if there's a proper word for this, I forget it) version of Jaeger - would it not make more sense to stick with the german word that it came from? Anyways, I digress; whether Yeager or Jaeger is used, we can't have both in the same article, it's just messy. 217.115.10.134 01:51, June 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * Agreed. Jaeger makes a thousant times more sense. Even right there on the trivia, a reference to Jager, the word for hunter. For people unfamilar with Gemran, the letter J is pronounced as Y. Eren is apparently supposed to be of German origin. Yeager is not a true German surname. It's a version of Jager / Jaeger transcribed for immgirants preferring to have their surname misspelled rather than mispronounced. Essentially, it is American, not German, and very uncommon, to boot. My own real life surname suffered the same changes with immigration to the US from Germany, actually. Jaeger or even Jäger would make much more sense, all things considered. There's no reason for it to be Yeager. The ugliest titan (talk) 23:22, June 10, 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately, at this point I don't think it's about our preferences. While I'd prefer Jaeger myself as well, we have been provided with Yeager from what seems to be an official source and thus it means that they intended it to be that way, even if it makes no sense when we look at it from German's point of view. 09:33, July 1, 2013 (UTC)

Kondansha USA, which is the so-called "official source" is not really a deciding factor... Sure they can use "Yeager" in their dubs, but is that really enough to make it "official"? They are official when it comes to the localized American version of Attack on Titan, but not to the original Japanease or the rest of the world. Also don't forget how the Americans like to "americanize" names all the time. I think the Japanease opening theme is way more "official" for this case and it really strongly suggest that the name is supposed to be Jäger. So I'd really like someone to explain how a company that is merely doing localizations for an anime adaption(!) of a manga to be called an official source for both the original manga and the Japanease anime. Of course if you find me a (legit) source from the Mangaka that without a doubt states that Eren's Surname is "Yeager" then I will accept it. But to use Kodansha USA alone as a source is not enough.

NeoSuperior (talk) 13:43, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

I completely agree with your view on Kodansha's translations, however, in this case, they weren't the source for this name change. Check this for more info 15:01, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

Whose twitter page is that? NeoSuperior (talk) 17:07, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

Should be official SnK twitter 17:40, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

I ment, is it the "official manga twitter" or the "official anime twitter"? I know this looks like nitpicking, but after seeing that most of the cast have German names, it seem very strange if the protagonist suddenly has an americanized name. Espacially if you consider that the first opening played around with the word "Jäger" so much, it makes me very sceptical about Eren's Surname being "Yeager". Well for me personally any source about Eren's name that was not created by Hajime Isayama himself or evidently asked by him to create, is void. But of course if the admins of the SnK-wikia have a different stance about that, then there is nothing i can do.

NeoSuperior (talk) 18:11, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

I believe it is the website for manga, that twitter profile contains a link to this website, the anime website is this one. Also, once again I completely agree that unless it's done by Isayama, I wouldn't consider it official but at this point all we have it that tweet, so unless it's somehow proven/decided that it's incorrect, we're gonna have to keep Yeager. 18:58, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

OK, I found something interesting: On a radar chart on crunchyroll's website, you can clearly see the name "Jäger". Crunchyroll states the charts are supposed to be part of a "guidebook" and yaraon is the suposed source for the picture scans and from then on everything is in Japanease, so I am at a dead end. I would be glad if someone could backtrack the source a bit further, so we have clarity regarding these radar charts. Also as further down in this discussion is visible, these charts contradict the stats we have on this wikia, so I'd also like someone to check that as well. NeoSuperior (talk) 16:21, July 26, 2013 (UTC)

As far as the stats go, I've seen them being edited numerous times by random anons so I don't think I'd be far from truth if I said that they had edited them to their likings. And yay, another name we can go with. T_T Why can't just the manga authors officially provide the romanizations for us. Would make our lives easier. Anyway, is that really from 'official guidebook' written by the author? This needs checking, I wish I knew enough Japanese to do that... Either way, we need to each some consensus otherwise this will go on as a never ending story. 18:11, July 26, 2013 (UTC)

I couldn't wait for someone to start translating so I went ahead and put the content of the tweet that started this whole disaster

"進撃キャラの英語表記. よく質問をいただくので、お答えします. 「Eren Yeager」「Mikasa Ackerman」「Armin Arlert」「Levi」でございます. "

into google translate, which returned this:

"English representation of the character advance. So get a good question, I answer. "Eren Yeager," "Mikasa Ackerman", "Armin Arlert" there is "Levi"."'

Of course since this is just google translate, I cannot trust it completely, but according to this, he could just be quoting the "English version" (the manga is being released in the USA since 2012 and this tweet was done in May 2013, but the Japanease people maybe didn't know what was used in the official American translation then and I think it is very unlikely that he would officially contradict the American localisation), which would lead us back to the question, is Kodansha USA alone a valid source? Of course it is only possible to reason like that if you use my interpretation of that tweet, but until we get a 1:1 translation of that tweet (and of the yaraon page as well), we are stuck at this point.

I also thought about why Kodansha USA would want to change the name if it actually was "Jäger" aside from "simply americanizing it", and I actually found a valid reason! You could say it is exactly the same reason, why the name "Yeager" was invented at all! It was invented because immigrants from Germany to USA would rather have their names misspellled than mispronounced. The same could be the case here. Since they only tranlate the manga (the anime didn't even exist yet when the first volume was released in the USA), the readers could have easily mispronounced "Jäger" as Jagger or something alike. This wouldn't have been a problem if it was an anime, as the audience could easily hear the pronunciation then, but with a manga that is not possible.

Also regarding "Jäger" being a new possibility: It is actually not. Jaeger and Jäger are essentially the same in German. Their pronunciation is identical. You usually write "Jäger", but in some cases, for example if you don't have a qwertz-keyboard that includes the letter "ä", or when you solve a crossword puzzle, then you write "Jaeger". That is also the case with any other word that uses "ä" and it also applies to "ö" which becomes "oe", or "ü" which becomes "ue".

NeoSuperior (talk) 22:39, July 26, 2013 (UTC)

Actually, it technically is a new possibility as it's a different spelling after all. Whether it's Jäger, Jaeger or Yeager, they're all pronounced the same and mean the same, that being イェーガー.

About your google translation, it can be interpreted in many ways, it may as well be saying that it is indeed the official spelling. Whether the romanization came from Kodansha or Isayama himself doesn't seem to be mentioned in the post, though.

So, let me summarize what we have; Kodansha and this Twitter post claims Yeager to be the correct one, while Jaeger (or Jäger) has been widely accepted as his surname by fans, it is being used in non-fansubs (Crunchyroll) and manga scanslations. It also makes more sense German-wise, however, we shouldn't base things on this as foreign people tend to mis-use other foreign languages; I'm looking at you Tite Kubo and your oh-so-awesome English Bleach chapter titles that made no sense whatsoever, apparently the author just thought it sounded cool. What I'm saying is that Yeager may be official the same way as the German lyrics of the anime opening are gramatically incorrect.

So yeah. 23:40, July 26, 2013 (UTC)

Human translation of the tweet (Done by me):

"The English notation of Shingeki characters. I often get asked this qustion. My answer is, 'Eren Yeager', 'Mikasa Ackerman', 'Armin Arlelt' and 'Levi'."

On a side note. I wonder, if someone sends him a tweet informing him of the correct spelling of Jäger, would he change it. 90.205.24.179 03:11, August 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Something interesting that I found in the 1st opening theme's full version: "[...]Jouheki no sono kanata emono o hofuru Jäger[...]Ubawareta sono chihei sekai o nozomu Eren[...]". I guess at least REVO considers the right spelling to be  Eren Jäger. I still have not seen anyone deny the possibility that Isayama's Editor was simply telling the Japanease people what notation is used in the English Kodansha translation, which if you imagined it being about Pokemon could mean "Ash Ketchum is the English notation of Satoshi". Do you understand what I mean? It can be interpreted either way. Of course I could be horribly wrong as well and REVO is wrong and like Mikos suggested, the names are a failure of an attempt at "Gerpanease" by Isayama. NeoSuperior (talk) 14:50, September 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeager is used by several sources that can be considered official, including the official SnK Twitter and Kodansha. It shouldn't be disregarded simply because people think the translation is wrong. That is how they translated it and is thus the official translation.

Bentheechidna (talk) 14:24, October 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * To be fair, "Yeager" is just the American variation of Jaeger, which is derived from Jäger, so it's not like anything huge was lost by using that spelling. DementedP (talk) 19:32, September 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Not sure if you've noticed but Eren is most likely if not clearly German and not of any English speaking country (i.e US and UK).

 * That is so stupid. You're saying FUNimation is more qualified than the official licensor of Attack on Titan, Kodansha, as well as the official twitter. This is the same as the people who refuse to call the series "Attack on Titan" and call it "The Eotena Assault" and use "Eoten" instead of "Titan", because they think Isayama isn't qualified to choose the name.
 * Bentheechidna (talk) 16:19, October 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Its not stupid, I'd rather Yeager is the English version of  Jäger. Like with the anime openings and most other surnames used in the wiki (see Sasha and Erwin) we like to stick the the German translation considering that's where they're from. And of course I trust FUNimation more than Kodansha. Reason being they have the licence for it, moreover, Kodansha have been proven to be unreliable in the past.

Battle Skill
Eren's Battle Skills do not match upto Annie's, Mikasa's or Reiner's. He shouldn't be given a 10/10 in battle skill.

-Unsigned

Those are official stats, from what I understand. And besides that, he is stated to have the best hand-to-hand combat skills out of the entire class. He's defeated Annie and Reiner in battle, and.....well...Mikasa is second only to Levi in the cast. Harostar (talk) 07:09, July 1, 2013 (UTC)

Those are official stats, and they give Eren a 9 out of 10 in Battle Skills/Combat (the same rating as Reiner, Bertholdt and Jean). Annie and Mikasa are the only once in the 104th who have a 10 out of 10 in Battle skills.

Eren ranking in Intelligence is 3/10.

-Unsigned

I have a question? What do you mean by He's defeated Annie and Reiner in battle? And who is "He" you are referring to?Jennicious (talk) 09:01, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

I'm referring to Eren, as the discussion concerned his Battle Skill rank. In all three of his fights against other Shifters, he managed to best them to the extent that they were forced to pull out various tricks/cheat to survive.

--Harostar (talk) 10:04, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

True, but the doesn't mean that he defeated Annie or Reiner.Jennicious (talk) 10:15, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

"Official" name to Eren's Titan.
In an event in Japan, Eren's titan got an "official" name, given by the Manga's writer, Hajime Isayama.

He is now to be reffered to as "Power Titan", due to the raw power and resilience of that form.

Interviewer: I personally like the fact that some titans have their specific denominations, it makes them look even more epic.

Hajime Isayama: Yes. Although the visuals are what discern them the most, "Armor Titan" sounds much more like something they would come up with.

IT: However, there's a titan that still has no specific name, Eren's. Do you have any denominations to share?

HI: I thought about naming him "Hero Titan", but that is a little too enthusiastic and off tone for a titan that's been defeated so many times (laughs). I like calling him "Power Titan" better, because his attacks are really strong and he resists a lot of blows, too.

IT: So, are we also allowed to refer to him as "Power Titan"? Or is that something you'd like to keep as your personal nickname?

HI: It sounds a lot better than Eren Titan (Laugh), so go right ahead!

Eren's passion on his Statistics
When I was looking at Eren's Statistics onhttp://indulging-inaccuracy.tumblr.com/post/49673140889/official-stats-taken-from-the-character-guide, his passion doesn't seem to pass beyond the line it seems similar for instance looking at Mikasa's combat. If this is the case should Eren have is passion be 10/10 instead of 12/10. I think that 12/10 seems a bit off with Eren.Jennicious (talk) 08:37, October 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * You are absolutely right. The user San&Ashitaka vandalised the page without anyone noticing. That user also changed Eren's "teamwork" from 5 to 4. I'll revise that. NeoSuperior (talk) 11:48, October 1, 2013 (UTC)

The Coordinate
--- SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 50! ---

--- SPOILERS, AGAIN, SPOILERS ---

--- LOOK OUT, PEEPS ---

--- SPOILERS ARE GO ---

--- LOOK OUT ---

Ignoring the no spoilers-rule, I believe there are some errors in this article. It doesn't seem like Eren is aware of his ability to command titans as of yet. He activated it through throwing strong emotions against Smiling Titan and R&B, so it seems more like a lucky shot than something he intended to do. Furthermore, the article states that it is unknown whether shifters are affected or not, but seeing that Ymir came to the rescue of R&B after they were swarmed by titans, it's safe to assume that they only notice the command. They showed no inclining to attack what Eren targeted two out of two times, so I suggest we change the article accordingly.

-Unsigned Anon

The english translation of the chapter is out, so we're all good on the policy!

That said, the first is fair enough. It seemed to me like intentional, but on second thought there's room for questioning until they discuss it further in the chapter.

Concerning other Shifters and the power, I believe what is stated is accurate. We do not know the full extent of his power, and so cannot state firmly in one direction or another. We know that they sense and react to it, but we do not know whether they are completely immune to it or simply able to resist because Eren does not have strength/control yet.

--Harostar (talk) 18:14, October 5, 2013 (UTC)

Eren's new power is awesome. I reckon he can get Annie under his control in this way.
 * I don't think he can, seeing as he doesn't have control over the Armored Titan and Annie being mentally stronger than Reiner.  h fc 2 X  01:20, October 18, 2013 (UTC)

We're Eren's special feelings for Annie those of respect, or something else?

Eren's Stats
Just wanted to make a quick post about Eren's stats. I personally believe Eren stats were quite undermined when his skillset was being assessed. I agree with some of the stats however, with recent chapters I believe a change to his stats are in order. Firstly his strategy rating being at a mere 3 is ridicoulous, sure he can be hothead and quick to act at some points in the series, however he does show resolve and strategic thinking in multiple occasions (such as when fighting Reiner in his Armored titan mode, realising he can't beat him by brute force and uses submisive moves he learned whilst training at the acadamey from Annie) His Strategy score should be atleast a solid 7ish.

Now moving on from strategy I honestly beleive that his battleskill should be at 10, sure some might say that Mikasa's battle skill is at 10 and she kicks ass, which i totally agree with! However, Eren hasn't had that may oppurtunities to show off his Battleskill and when he has whether that be the few times with his 3dm gear or in his titan form he's clearly shown to be a force to be reckoned with. Furthur more giving him the same score as Jean and Reiner is ridicoulos being he's clearly beaten them in hand to hand combat in multiple occusians throughout the series.

Also please insert Titan stats on Eren's page, Almost everyother shifter has them except him and would love to see how he scores against the rest of the shifters.

Feel free to leave opinions / feedback!

 * These stats were taken from an official source, they weren't made up. Qazqaz 555  21:48, November 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * Fairenough however this "official source" which you've stated though is from several months ago, making it quite outdated. Not to mention that there are multiple sources that I have seen, that all deem themselves official and vary quite abit. Also would like the implementation of Eren's Titan stats on his page.
 * GVASS (talk) 22:05, November 5, 2013 (UTC)GVASS

Doesn't matter, it is from official guidebook so until we are given new stats, the current ones will be kept. Also, there are no stats for Eren's Titan. 22:09, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

I have a question relating to Eren's skill. It says he had the best scores for hand to hand combat out of the 104th trainees. Is that true o.o? I'm pretty sure Mikasa and Annie are much better fighters than him, is this stated in the manga or what?

122.62.65.37 06:12, November 12, 2013 (UTC)anon

Sort of. What you're recalling is one of Jean and Eren's fights, where Reiner shouts that Eren scored the best in hand-to-hand combat out of all of them.

....then Mikasa tosses Eren over her shoulder and Reiner goes, "No, wait, maybe it was Mikasa?"

It's primarily used as a gag, so we're not sure who graduated with the best score in any individual test.

--Harostar (talk) 06:39, November 12, 2013 (UTC)

Well it's written on Eren's ability section so I kind of thought it was misleading since it wasn't clearly shown in the manga. And its pretty obvious Mikasa could easily win against him. Anyway thanks for replying.

Expand and Update Eren's Abilities
Hello. I was wondering whether it would be possible to expand and update Eren's abilities, more specifically the Titan part of them. A good example to follow would be Annie Leonhart's Titan powers which have clearly listed specific abilities in a readable fashion. I already have some ideas, however, the page is locked...

Alright. I already took the liberty to update part of the page. Take a look at it if you want. Hopefully, it covers fully his abilities in his Titan form. SideEdger (talk) 01:30, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Eren's character image
I've been wondering about this for a while. Eren's image looks weird. Clearly he's not amused in that image with bunch of wrinkly shadey thingys on his face. His pupil looks funny. I know its hard to get a nice shot of him but i just wanna suggest this one:   http://prntscr.com/2c1y4w    I know he's not exactly facing directly this way but it looks more Erenish (and looks a lot better than the current). It's just my suggestion so if you think it isn't good enough then it's fine by me.

I was also hoping to change it to something else. The lazy me just needs to go through the anime and find some proposals. Thanks for the suggestion though, it will be considered ^.^ P.S. Don't forget to sign your posts with ~ 15:17, December 18, 2013 (UTC)

About Eren and Annie's relationship, it is special feelings of respect, I believe I had already changed it to that. Isayama stated that it was feelings of respect as well. We need to give the right information or people will be confused Anu-Generation (talk) 04:32, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

I somewhat disagree, it's quoting Mikasa, right? In the series, she never mentions anything about respect (unless that's in the manga, and they removed the quote from the anime). Unless you have a link proving Isayama said this, I think it'd also be useful for linking it on the page, but I say no messing with a quote. Gurgatory (talk) 05:51, February 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * What's in the article is what Mikasa states. She thinks Eren may have romantic feelings for Annie, and that's what is making him hesitate. This was picked up by the official guidebooks which "officially confirmed" that Eren's love was what made him unable to fight her, but once Isayama saw this published, he had to step in and say this wasn't the case, that Eren's feelings for Annie are of respect. In any case, what's listed in the article is what Mikasa thinks.  h fc 2 X  08:00, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

You know I am actually an eren x Annie fan, and it was because of what this wiki first said. But when I saw this link I was very sad http://tubigpo32.tumblr.com/post/54885708239/erenxannie-was-just-nuked-by-isayama-himself I don't want any other person to turn into an eren x Annie fan to be as dissapointed as I am.

 * Well, you're disappointed because you're doing something that shouldn't be done: mixing shipping, which is a fandom thing, with canon. I have a friend who ships EreAni and doesn't care if it's canon or not or if Isayama "nuked" it. You like a ship? Cool. You are trying to shove your ship into canon because it "looks cute"? Not cool.
 * If someone has problems with what the author says, then they really need to question themselves why do they like a series to start with.  h fc 2 X  18:49, February 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * I do not have any problem with what the author says, nor the series. And I am not an EreAni fan anymore. All I was trying to do was somehow not give someone wrong information. But man, nevermind that anymore. Anu-Generation (talk) 16:10, March 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * The thing is that we're not giving wrong information in that part. Mikasa clearly suspects Eren "has feelings" for Annie, and she even asks him.  h fc 2 X  18:33, March 1, 2014 (UTC)

Another form?
Could Eren have a different type of form other than skin? Like for example having just meat on/No skin --Masken (talk) 01:30, April 4, 2014 (UTC)Masken
 * No it is merely his "incomplete" form, which is shown not to be limited to Eren, as we saw the same thing happen with the colossal titan once as well. NeoSuperior (talk) 02:30, April 4, 2014 (UTC)

I'd go for 15, as the youngest enlisted is Krista, and she's 15. Gurgatory (talk) 23:02, May 13, 2014 (UTC)
 * Since Eren was 11 when he decided "joining the military next year", we can assume the minimum recuitment age to be 12.  h fc 2 X  01:11, May 14, 2014 (UTC)


 * Dang, he was 12? I don't know about the manga, but he didn't look a day older at the end of Episode 2 than he did at the rest of the series. Gurgatory (talk) 01:32, May 14, 2014 (UTC)

The minimum recruitment age is 12 years old, with 3 years of training so the the youngest active-duty Soldiers are 15. --Harostar (talk) 04:08, May 14, 2014 (UTC)
