Peering Titan

The Nozokikomu Kyojin (覗き込む巨人) was a former Eldian Restorationist who was captured by the Marleyan public security authorities and turned in a Titan for the crime of treason.

Human
In human form, this restorationist was of average build and height. He had had shaggy brown hair and large brown eyes. His face had very pronounced, tense features and lines; his eyes and eyebrows were almost always tensed and squinting slightly. Usually, his resting face made his teeth visible. He was only ever seen wearing black pants and shoes, a white button up shirt, and sometimes a dark colored blazer.

Titan
The Peering Titan was a 3-4m class Titan and had a disproportionately big head and shoulder-length, messy, brown hair with brown eyes. His body was relatively toned, and he always had an angered expression on his face.

History
In his human days, the Peering Titan was a member of the Eldia Restorationists. He was present when Grisha Yeager found out about his sister's real cause of death at the hands of Marleyan soldiers and he cheered Grisha on as he went through the initiation ceremony of carving an "X" into their skin. For several years, he worked with the restorationists on their discovery of history and plan to bring Eldians back into power. He is present when Dina Fritz appears before them as an ally sent by The Owl, their mole in the public security authorities. After learning of the Eldian's true history and the Great Titan War, he cheers with his comrades when they agree to take back the First King's power and give it to Dina, the last of the royal family.

When the Marleyan government decides to hire Eldian children as warriors to take down the 145th king on the island of Paradis, he rallies with his comrades to decide their plan. They then discover from The Owl that the Marleyan government only wants to go to war so they can steal the fossil fuel below the island. Grisha offers his son, Zeke Yeager, as a volunteer and mole for their organization. However, two years later all the restorationists were turned in by Zeke and sentenced to go to Utopia and spend the rest of their lives and mindless Titans who eat their own kind.

The Restorationists were all then taken on a steam boat to the island of Paradis and forced to kneel on the edge of a large wall. First, one of the restorationists was kicked off the wall as a human and told to make a run for the walls. After this, all the Restorationists, except the human Peering Titan, Dina, and Grisha, were injected with Titan Serum and kicked over the wall. Moments later, they all turned into Titans and ran after Grice. After Dina was transformed, Sergeant Major Gross then decided that he would turn the last restorationist into a small Titan that would eat Grisha. After this, the human Peering Titan was injected with a Titan serum and pushed over the wall, turning into a Titan moments later. Before Gross could push Grisha over the wall, Kruger pushed the sergeant off the edge. He hit the ground and rolled on the sand-doom and was face to face with the Peering Titan. Quickly after, the Peering Titan picked Gross up and took a bit out of his face, ripping a portion of his skin and muscles off as he continued to devour him.

Battle of Trost District arc
During the battle for Trost District, the Peering Titan spots Mina Carolina's vertical maneuvering equipment grapple wire and pulls on it, bringing her crashing to the ground. He then goes on to pick Mina up and bite her head off, killing her as other trainees die around them.

He is seen once more afterwards, having made his way with other smaller Titans into the equipment depot of the military headquarters in Trost. As part of Armin Arlert's plan to clear out the Titans from the depot, Sasha Blouse attacks it, but fails to land a killing blow. As the Titan approaches Sasha, Mikasa Ackerman comes to her rescue, killing the Titan.
