Keiji

Keiji (ケイジ) was a member of the Survey Corps and a part of Hange Zoë's squad.

Appearance
Keiji was a tall, tan soldier with a large build. He had a jet-black buzz cut, almost making him bald. He was shown wearing the usual Scouting Legion uniform, a hoodie, and a v-neck shirt. Whenever he was shown on screen, he was almost always scowling.

The Female Titan arc
Keiji first appears participating in the operation to capture the Female Titan. After Annie encases herself in crystal, Keiji hacks at it with his sword until being ordered to stop by Hange Zoë. He is later seen berating Eren for disobeying an order to stay out of the fight. He was again seen with the rest of the Survey Corps fighting the Colossal Titan. After it falls onto Eren Yeager and the Armored Titan, Keiji is among those who are wounded from the impact of the blow.

Keiji is not seen again until after Eren has been rescued and Levi's squad are at their new base. He sits silently with Hange Zoë, Nifa, Moblit Berner, and an unnamed Survey Corps member that wears goggles, while they are being told of the plan for Eren to seal Wall Maria by hardening his Titan body like the Female Titan did.

He is later seen mostly by Nifa's side until his death in Chapter 57.

The Uprising arc
Keiji is murdered by an anonymous character, assumable to be a part of Captain Ackerman's plan. With a shot to the side of his head, Keiji is killed instantly, along with Nifa and the unnamed Survey Corps member also from Hange Zoë's squad, leaving Hange and Moblit Berner as the only alive members of the fourth squad.

Trivia

 * In the anime, it is instead Jean Kirstein who hacks at the crystal.
