### Type of Villain

Cataclysmic Anti-Villain

**Eren Yeager** is the main protagonist of the *Attack on Titan* series. He is a former member of the Survey Corps, the leader of the Yeagerists, the last inheritor of the **Attack Titan** and later revealed to be the **Founding Titan** as well. Later in the story, he becomes the inheritor of the **War Hammer Titan**. He serves as Reiner Braun's archenemy and is the half-brother of Zeke Yeager.

While initially presented as an heroic protagonist, Eren gradually becomes more of a morally ambiguous anti-villain by committing several violent acts for the sake of Eldia.

He is voiced by Yūki Kaji in Japanese and by Bryce Papenbrook in English. He was played by the late Haruma Miura in the live-action film adaption of *Attack on Titan*.

## His Evil Ranking

### What Makes Him Heinous?

* When he was child, he killed three kidnapper who want to sell Mikasa in a violent and methodical manner by repeatedly stabbing them with a knife and calling them animals. Despite his intention to protect Mikasa, he showed no remorse, instead he said they are deserved to being killed. This demonstrates his unstable personality and violent tendencies even as a child.
* He is very savage and bloodthirsty when fighting his enemies. When he fought the Female Titan in the forest, he intended to cut the titan in little pieces and devour her, smiling with sadistic delight.
* In the anime, when fighting Annie a second time, he completely loses control of himself, ripping Annie's body apart and intending to devour her alive.
* After Willy Tybur’s speech, he brutally smashed Willy Tybur until his body was shattered and he had eaten Tybur because he think Willy Tybur was Warhammer’s inheritor. And in his titan form, he ran to the stands so fast that he killed many of Marley’s military executives who were there, several ambassadors who were present, including several civilians because of his actions.
* When he fought with Warhammer Titan, before Lara (Warhammer’s inheritor) transforming her titan form perfectly, he brutally punched her many times to try and knock her out
* During the war, when Mikasa warned him to end it all by showing innocent citizens who died because of his actions, he shows little concern over Marley's civilian deaths and he felt it was the thing that should have happened.
* After he defeated Warhammer Titan, he uses Porco’ sharp jaws to crush her body and devour her. He smashed Porco’s Titan into the ground while cut off his arms and legs so he could eat the titan as well before being prevented by Reiner who rose from his dilemma.
* After he broke out of his cell, he founded his own based terrorist group, Yeagerist and he recruit many members who don’t trusted Paradis military anymore, and one of his members and his former rival also willing to do heinous things so his goal achieved, Floch. His faction has done many heinous things such as exploded Zackley’s office, kidnapped many members of the survey corps and brainwashed them, and shoot dead those who oppose them.
* When he and Zeke saw one of his father’s memories after his father' request being rejected to help Paradis civilian by Reiss royal family, he goes mad and manipulated his father to massacre whole of Reiss family, including the children, with the exception Rod Reiss.
* After Ymir allowed him to use his Founding’s power, he started to awake millions of wall Titan are buried in the wall and they walk followed him to step on anything around there and he and his Wall Titan’s troops step towards Marley to the ends of the world to genocide against the entire population outside of Paradis. Which was the most heinous act he has ever done which involves countless deaths of innocent people out there who know nothing about the conflict including children, women, even new-borns who are victims of his heinous action. With his rumbling actions, he assumed that only his people should live and he considered the rest of the world's population to be enemies who threatened Paradis' safety. As a result, he succesfully wiped out 80% population of the world in the end of series.

### What Makes Him Irregular?

* He has been through a lot of tragic events in his life started when he saw his mother being eaten alive by a mysterious titan passing by, the death of Hannes, a Garrison member who become Eren’s dad’s figure after Grisha disappearance was eaten by a same Titan who was ate his mother and knowing the fact that he accidentally ate his father when he transformed into pure titan.
* He has helped and done a lot for Paradis such as help Paradis to exterminate all the Titans, use his Titan power to cover the damage that was spread across Paradis from the attacks of the Titans and Marley.
* He truly cared and love his friends and partner, especially his childhood best friends, Mikasa and Armin. When he told his friends that his titan period was over in 4 years, almost all of his friends volunteered to inherit his titan, but he asked his friends not to inherit his titan so that his friends can outlive him.
* When the military asked that Queen Historia inherit Zeke’s Titan and asked to give birth as much as possible, Eren gets angry and condemned the reckless decisions taken by the military government. This shows that he was really protective about Historia's life.
* When he and his friends met with a family from the Middle East who was at the Marley festival, he met one of the children named Ramzi and apologized to him as he sheds his tears of his rumbling actions in the future that would make the child the victim of his heinous act.
* When he successfully obtained his founding power, he does not use its power to control his friends and gives them the freedom to stop him at any cost.
* He is genuinely an anti-villainous character who had done many heinous actions after the time skip only to protect his people and hometown from being destroyed and invaded by Marley. He believed that his actions were the only way to protect his people and hometown so they could survive the attacks from Marley and the world alliances.
* In the manga, his death scene was played for sympathy where before his death in Mikasa's hands, he told to Armin about the hidden plan behind his rumbling plan that he wanted to make his friends as the heroes who defeated him and the world's hatred only to him in a path world and he let Mikasa killed him.
