![]() Zeke also seemed to be a cold, ruthless and sarcastic individual, though not explicitly sadistic. ![]() His decision to prioritize the capture of the Founding Titan over rescuing Annie, and his deduction that she was not really being tortured by her captors, demonstrates an ability to think tactically and prioritize mission objectives over sentimentality. This was seen when he crushed the head of the Titan that was eating Mike as soon as it disobeyed him, or when he beat Reiner to make him and Bertolt focus on acquiring the Founding Titan instead of saving Annie. If his orders were not followed, he did not hesitate to use brute force. While he was talking with Mike, he told the Titan that was eating him to hold him instead of devouring him. He displayed the traits of a leader, giving orders and telling other people, sometimes even Titans, what to do. He tried to communicate with Mike Zacharias in order to get information about the vertical maneuvering equipment and learn about Mike's language, though such curiosity was often characterized by a marked callous detachment. Zeke would then go on to become a War Chief and the direct commander of Reiner, Bertholdt, and Annie.Zeke was a very intelligent and curious man. ![]() Zeke turned on his father, leading to his mother being turned into a mindless Titan and Grisha being tortured. Grisha was part of the Eldia Restorationist Movement and wanted to use Zeke as a mole to undermine the Marley government. When Zeke was very young, Grisha volunteered him for that very program. As such, they are bred specifically to be used as weapons to inherit Titan powers and attempt to invade Paradis to recover the Coordinate this is the origin of Reiner, Bertholdt, and Annie as well as their mission. The Fritz bloodline in Marley is also directly parallel to the Reiss line in Paradis, which also explains why Historia (formerly Christa) is so important.ĭina, Grisha, and Zeke’s shared history is wrapped up with Marley, the nation that Reiner and Bertholdt hail from, and its centuries-long war with the government of Paradis, the city and surrounding lands that Eren and Mikasa grew up in.Įldians in Marley are basically oppressed and segregated refugees used by Marley government they’re supposedly the only types of humans that can transform into Titans. Anime fans might remember when the newer Ymir was falsely worshiped in a flashback for having the “blood of Ymir.” This is what they were referring to. She, and Zeke as well, are the only direct descendants of the original Ymir, who discovered the power of the Titans hundreds of years ago. Remember the “Smiling Titan” that devoured Eren’s mother and Eren used the coordinate to destroy in the Season 2 finale of the anime? Yeah, that’s actually Dina Fritz, Grisha’s first wife and Zeke’s mother. ![]() In the manga, his identity is eventually revealed as Zeke Yeager, who as you might expect, is related to Eren (though the surname name is spelled Jaeger in the anime). Who is this man? How does he keep his glasses intact? What does he do for ab workouts? 'Attack on Titan' The Identity of the Beast TitanĬhief among the many questions fans have for Attack on Titan Season 3 is the identity of the man inside the Beast Titan. Well, the manga has some of these answers.Įxtreme spoilers from the Attack on Titan manga follow, and they might ruin the anime’s upcoming third season for you. Why does he look so different from every other Titan? How is it that he can talk? How does he not know about vertical maneuvering equipment? What are his powers? How does his mission relate or not relate to Reiner and Bertholdt?What are his powers? How does his mission relate or not relate to Reiner and Bertholdt? But ultimately, we still have a lot to wonder about. If the teaser at the very end of Season 2 is any indication, then the monstrous monkey will play a much more prominent role moving forward. Everything he did raised only more questions about his identity and motives while virtually no answers were given. But rather than have this new massive talking Titan be the principal villain of Season 2, he wound up sidelined as a tangential force of nature for the duration of the 12 episodes. When the Beast Titan debuted in the Attack on Titan Season 2 premiere, fans were bewildered and absolutely shocked when the monster caused one of the most gruesome deaths in the show’s history.
