Theo Magath (Anime)

"The power of the Titans is absolute, and it must always remain that way."

- Magath worries for his country

Theo Magath (テオ・マガト) is the Commander (隊長) of the Eldian Unit in the Marleyan military. He led the Eldian Warriors in the Marley Mid-East War against the Mid-East Allied Forces, playing a key role in Marley's victory.

Appearance
Magath is an older man with blue eyes and a thin beard, mustache, and short, thinning hair. He has visible wrinkles from age but an overall healthy build and appearance. Like his fellow soldiers, he wears the standard Marleyan soldier uniform consisting of a light jacket and pants with a black clip at the collar, supply packs on the hip, suspender straps, a hard hat with a black stripe around it, and tall combat boots.

Marley arc
About four years after the failed Paradis Island Operation, Magath leads an 800-man Eldian unit against the Mid-East Allied Forces at the battle of Fort Slava. When the Eldian unit's trench line could advance no further towards the bunkers around the fort, candidate Colt Grice suggests to Magath that both the Jaw and Cart Titan should be used against the Allies. Magath refuses this suggestion, pointing out the Allies' anti-Titan artillery and the great risk of losing their Titans against it. Warrior candidate Gabi Braun offers to use a bundle of grenades to destroy the armored train carrying the artillery, but Magath refuses to waste the candidate needlessly. Gabi becomes sarcastically coy with the commander, wondering why her life is more important than the 800 others in the unit, and Magath eventually gives in and sends her out. Once Gabi succeeds in destroying the armored train, Magath sends out Galliard to attack the fort.

As Galliard and Pieck lead a charge against Fort Slava's defenses, Magath remains behind withthe Warrior candidates. When the time comes for Zeke to make use of his Beast Titan to rain mindless Titans down upon the fort, Commander Magath, and the Warriors watch from a distance as Marley's Titans complete the assault on the fort.
