Mina Carolina

Mīna Carolina (ミーナ・カロライナ) was a former member of the 104th Trainees Squad.

Appearance
Mina was a young girl with light, fair skin. She had grey, almost bluish, eyes and had past shoulder length, black hair tied in loose pigtails. She had light blue hair ties.

In missions, she wore the standard Trainee's uniform and had a white polo with a collar underneath her jacket. When in off duty, Mina wears a long sleeved teal blouse and black pants. She has a slender figure and is average height.

Introduction Arc
When the Colossal Titan appears outside Trost District, the burst of steam from its body knocks a number of trainees off the Wall. She follows when Eren instructs the other trainees to attack the Colossal Titan. After the second attack of the Colossal Titan, she was assigned to the middle guard along with Eren and Armin Arlert.

Initially tasked with working under the training corps, they eventually were incorporated into the front guard due to the number of Titans. When Eren was talking about how killing Titans that got in Trost District will get their rank up high, she joined him indicating that she is also signing up for Survey Corps.

Finally, the whole squad advances forward towards the numeorus Titans. Catching the group unaware, a Titan lunged at the roof top they were standing on. The group watches Thomas getting swallowed by the Titan. Eren initially attacks the Titan that swallowed Thomas then Armin followed him first and Mina in second.

After Eren's leg got bitten off suddenly by one of the Titans, she and the other two tried to kill the Titan that was responsible for biting off Eren's leg. However, her Three Dimensional Maneuver Gear's wire was caught by a Titan's hand and was knocked over to the wall. When she found out where she was, it was too late for her to escape. She was caught by another Titan and her head was bitten off. Annie later found a body similar to Mina during Post-Trost battle cleanup, but since the body's face is mauled beyond recognition, no one knows if it is really her.

Trivia

 * Mina and Annie shared a table when feasting during the training flashback, implying the two were close friends despite Annie's isolative, exclusionary personality. (Other examples of the table sharings include Ymir & Krista, Jean & Marco, Connie & Reiner, or Mikasa, Eren, and Armin.)
 * The Titan that killed Mina can be seen again in Episode 8 and nearly kills Sasha Blouse after a failed ambush, but is slain by Mikasa Ackerman.
