Talk:Annie Leonhart

Spoiler
Think its rather poor to reveal a spoiler like that she is a titan in the opening line... some merit needs to go into keeping some of the later story details hidden or atlease not at the top of the page. 184.90.183.183 10:30, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

No, the main page of the wiki clearly states that it contains heavy spoilers. Her being a Titan Shifter is a major part of her character so I don't see a reason not to include it. 10:37, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

I'm here from google, so I didn't saw main page. There should be only hidden spoilers...

You're a fool to believe a wiki page is spoiler free. Some awesome guy

Stats
Seriously? "Sexy" stat? Could we grow up a tiny bit

Tell that to the authors of the Shingeki no Kyojin INSIDE guidebook as we haven't made these stats up, they come from official sources. Also, next time, sign your posts with four ~ so we know who is talking. 16:49, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Surname
I thought Annie's last name was spelt "Leonhardt" Is the current one the correct? If so why wasn't that one used from the start o.o

 * Because both have been used in official material, but we had a discussion some time ago, and agreed that we will use the names from the official english version manga.  h fc 2 X  00:48, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

Fighting style
Her fighting style seems based on Muay Thai. Though, I don't know of throws being used in Muay Thai. 99.103.46.68 11:39, March 26, 2014 (UTC)

Anime Cameo
I don't know where to put this suggestion honestly, so I guess I'll just put it in the forums.

Anyway, I would like to suggest an edit in the Annie Leonhart article, in the trivia section to add another fact thingy.

So I was watching episode 2 of the anime again, to check for the cameo of Reiner and Bertholt, but I also found another cameo, in which you can see young Annie. She can be seen receiving bread from a soldier after Eren wakes up from a dream where he met his dad.

Since I don't have an account, I cannot attach an image. However, hopefully one of you helpful wikia users can review the episode and see for yourselves.

Thanks.

That is already included in her Story section, here. 14:15, April 13, 2014 (UTC)

Abilities
I rewatched episode 21 and I concluded that the Female Type Titan possessed the same ability the Armored Titan does: Enhanced speed. She rushes at incredibly high speed when she is about to kill Petra. This is the description the Armored Titan has for this ability:

"Enhanced Speed: During the battle in the Shiganshina District, Reiner in his Titan form demonstrated enough speed to quickly cross the gap to the inner gate of Wall Maria preventing cannons from accurately firing at him. While fully armored his speed is noted to be much slower, however, Reiner has shown that he can choose to shed certain areas of his armor, such as joints located at the back of his legs, boosting his overall speed. This tactic was used several times by him successfully during his fight against Eren’s Titan form. However, the Armored Titan form is more suited for physical combat, and performs less well in running large distances seeing as how the Survey Corp were able to reach him via horseback after leaving the Forest of Giant Trees."

Given we only see the Armored Titan rushing at high speed once in the Anime (and then in the Manga afterwards) I would say Annie qualifies to be noted with this ability too? Taiki150 (talk) 22:22, April 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * I think it doesn't qualify as a "special ability". They simply run, and that's not an unusual trait among Titans. The only big difference would be that Reiner and Annie are aware about what they do.  h fc 2 X  07:08, April 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * Given that according to you this is is just simply running and not an unusual trait I figure that this ability should be removed from Reiner's page?


 * And that's not quite accurate, there is a clear distinction between the way the Female Titan and Armored Titan rushed (or ran) compared to ordinary Titans. While Titans are fast, we haven't seen any other Titans rush at that speed so far in the anime (and probably also in the manga).  Taiki150 (talk) 16:53, April 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * That's why I said that Reiner and Annie are aware of what they do. Normal Titans move "automatically", because they are in a dream-like state of consciousness, while Titan Shifters (except Eren) are always fully "awake" and aware of their actions. That's why they display different behaviors, and running at high speeds qualifies more as a behavior than an ability (unless you count Reiner's "armor shedding" ability which lets him move faster).  h fc 2 X  21:25, April 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ah, so what it all comes down to is that Reiner's "enhanced" movement speed ability / technique should actually be called something more fitting and less confusing, like "armor shedding" maybe? Enhanced Speed is way too broad of a title for an ability. Annie enhanced her speed in that scene too, so I thought she could have this ability noted, but it seems Reiner sheds his parts which makes it more of a real ability.
