Armin Arlert

Character from Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama

The frail boy with the big book of the outside world who grew into humanity's most dangerous strategist and inherited the Colossal Titan — the gentlest soul in the story asked to make the cruelest decisions.

Also known as: Armin Arlert, Armin, The Colossal Titan

What They Know

• Childhood friend of Eren and Mikasa from Shiganshina District; his grandfather's forbidden book about the outside world inspired Eren's obsession with freedom
• Graduated near the bottom of the 104th Cadet Corps physically but was recognized as the most brilliant strategic mind of his generation
• Inherited the Colossal Titan after Levi chose to give the Titan serum to him over Commander Erwin, consuming Bertholdt in the process
• Masterminded the strategy at Trost (plugging the breach with Eren's Titan), identified Annie as the Female Titan, and devised the Shiganshina defense
• The Colossal Titan transformation produces a nuclear-scale explosion and the Titan itself is sixty meters tall, capable of emitting superheated steam
• Communicated with Eren in the Paths, where Eren confessed his true feelings — his love for his friends, his inability to accept Mikasa moving on, and his uncertainty about his own motivations
• Became the ambassador for Paradis after the Rumbling, leading peace negotiations with the surviving nations
• Haunted by being chosen over Erwin and by the destruction he caused at Liberio's port with his Colossal transformation
