Moblit Berner (Anime)

Moblit (モブリット) is a veteran member of the Scout Regiment and the Executive Officer of the Scout Regiment's fourth squad, under the command of Hange Zoë. He also serves as Hange's assistant and messenger.

Appearance
Moblit has short smooth brown hair parted down the middle and light brown eyes. He is of average height and build, but often carries a worried expression due to his superior officer's wild and impulsive personality. Moblit wears the typical uniform of a member of the Scout Regiment with a green button up shirt underneath, but he is sometimes seen wearing black pants with a white button down. On missions, he wears the Scout Regiment's green cloak.

Personality
He comes across as an intelligent and responsible person, which may be the reason he is tasked to keep his overzealous and eccentric superior out of trouble. Much of the time, this leaves him in a state of near-panic, having to constantly remind Hange to be more careful or yanking her to safety. That he remains at her side constantly suggests he is a loyal person, regardless of the stress involved with being under her command.

Eve of the Counterattack arc
Moblit first appears as Hange Zoë's assistant, standing nearby as she attempts to establish communication with the captured Titans whom she named Sawney and Beane. He is immensely panicked by Hange's seemingly reckless attempts to get the two Titans to respond to her, repeatedly telling her to step back. Some time later, Hange purposefully jabs Bean in the heart with a long pole in order to determine the Titan's reaction to pain, screaming while doing so. Moblit is worried over her reaction, to which she responds that seeing Beane in such pain is what is causing her to scream and be so upset. Later on, another attempt at establishing communication with Sawney nearly causes him to bite her head off, and Moblit drags her away with fear while exclaiming that she will most certainly die if she does not exercise caution. After being once again summoned to the grounds where the Titans were being kept, Hange is in disarray at the sight of their murder. As she screams, Moblit attempts to calm her down from the side lines.

The 57th Exterior Scouting Mission arc
Moblit takes part in the 57th exterior scouting mission. He is assigned to the soldiers lying in wait for the Female Titan and is among them after she has been captured. As Levi intimidates the Female and tells her of his plans to dismember her real body, the Female Titan lets out a deafeningly loud roar which causes Moblit and Hange to cover their ears as the Titan shrieks. After the roar, Moblit wonders aloud if it was a death rattle, and is surprised to see numerous Titans begin to swarm the area and attack the female. When they begin to devour her, Commander Erwin Smith orders all squad to engage the Titans and defend the Female to the death. Moblit fights relentlessly among his comrades but to no avail. The Commander, realizing that all is lost, orders his soldiers to pull back and return to Calaneth District.

Assault on Stohess arc
The Scout Regiment again attempt to capture the Female Titan, this time in Stohess District where they believe she is hiding. With Armin Arlelt's help, they single out Annie Leonhart as their suspect. With their suspicions correct, Eren Jaeger successfully manages to incapacitate Annie during the raid on Stohess. Moblit stands nearby, grabbing Hange's shoulders in a state of panic as the surrounding soldiers attempt to extract Annie from the nape of her Titan. However, Annie's last resort to crystallize herself makes her impossible to extract information from. Shortly after, Moblit is among those instructed to move Annie to a safer place where she could be held.

Clash of the Titans arc
When the soldiers notice that there is a Titan within the Wall, he frantically runs toward Hange, asking for her orders. They are soon approached by Minister Nick, who claims that the Titan must be kept out of the sunlight.

After the Titan is successfully covered, Moblit, among other soldiers, is present as Hange questions Nick as to why the Titan was inside the Wall in the first place. When Hange holds Nick over the edge of Wall, he attempts to stop her, only to be told to stay back. He observes their exchange with a concerned expression, moving forward when it appears Hange is about to release the minister and allow him to fall to his death. However, Hange instead thrusts Nick back onto the Wall. After briefly checking on him, Moblit approaches Hange and attempts to speak with her, to which she responds that she just had a feeling she had not felt since she first stepped outside the Walls, remarking that it is terrifying.

Abilities
Moblit is the executive officer of the fourth squad of the Scout Regiment and, being a senior member within this division, he has survived many expeditions alongside his superior. He also possesses decent scientific abilities, serving as Hange's assistant during her experiments.
