Can we get some continuity with the surname? I mean, my personal preference would be to go with Jaeger, since I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be Jaeger as in hunter - Yeager just seems to be a poor romanisation of a japan-ised (if there's a proper word for this, I forget it) version of Jaeger - would it not make more sense to stick with the german word that it came from? Anyways, I digress; whether Yeager or Jaeger is used, we can't have both in the same article, it's just messy. 217.115.10.134 01:51, June 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * Agreed. Jaeger makes a thousant times more sense. Even right there on the trivia, a reference to Jager, the word for hunter. For people unfamilar with Gemran, the letter J is pronounced as Y. Eren is apparently supposed to be of German origin. Yeager is not a true German surname. It's a version of Jager / Jaeger transcribed for immgirants preferring to have their surname misspelled rather than mispronounced. Essentially, it is American, not German, and very uncommon, to boot. My own real life surname suffered the same changes with immigration to the US from Germany, actually. Jaeger or even Jäger would make much more sense, all things considered. There's no reason for it to be Yeager. The ugliest titan (talk) 23:22, June 10, 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately, at this point I don't think it's about our preferences. While I'd prefer Jaeger myself as well, we have been provided with Yeager from what seems to be an official source and thus it means that they intended it to be that way, even if it makes no sense when we look at it from German's point of view. 09:33, July 1, 2013 (UTC)

Battle Skill
Eren's Battle Skills do not match upto Annie's, Mikasa's or Reiner's. He shouldn't be given a 10/10 in battle skill.

-Unsigned

Those are official stats, from what I understand. And besides that, he is stated to have the best hand-to-hand combat skills out of the entire class. He's defeated Annie and Reiner in battle, and.....well...Mikasa is second only to Levi in the cast. Harostar (talk) 07:09, July 1, 2013 (UTC)
