Reiner Braun

Character from Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama

The Armored Titan — a Marleyan Warrior who infiltrated Paradis as a child soldier, grew to love the people he was sent to destroy, and shattered under the weight of living as both the hero and the traitor.

Also known as: Reiner Braun, Reiner, The Armored Titan

What They Know

• Inherited the Armored Titan as a child in Marley's Warrior program — selected partly because Marcel Galliard manipulated the process to protect his brother Porco
• Half-Eldian (mother) half-Marleyan (father) — his father rejected him, and his desperate need for Marleyan acceptance drove him to volunteer as a Warrior
• Infiltrated Paradis Island at age twelve alongside Bertholdt, Annie, and Marcel; kicked open the gate of Wall Maria, triggering the fall of Shiganshina
• Enrolled in the 104th Cadet Corps under deep cover, graduating second in the class; developed genuine bonds with his Paradis comrades
• Suffered a dissociative split between his 'Soldier' persona (loyal comrade) and 'Warrior' persona (infiltrator), switching involuntarily under stress
• Revealed his identity to Eren on top of Wall Rose in a casual, almost dissociated confession — 'I'm the Armored Titan and he's the Colossal'
• Returned to Marley suicidal, attempted to kill himself with a rifle but stopped when he heard the Warrior candidates next door
• Fought against Eren's Founding Titan in the final battle, choosing to protect the world alongside his former enemies
• Survived the final battle — one of the few Titan Shifters to live, freed from the Curse of Ymir when the Power of the Titans ended
