Why is Eren Yeager so special?
So what's up guys Foxen here!
Today is Eren's birthday.
In honor of his big day let's get a closer look at him.
What made him into the titan he is today?
Ironically Eren thinks to himself that he's not anything too special after the Uprising
Arc.
Perhaps Eren wasn't born special but he's certainly has become a very important piece
of the Attack on Titan Puzzle.
The whole development for Eren Yeager got kick started into overdrive after Wall Maria
Fell.
He got a very close up view of seeing his mother devoured by the Smiling Titan.
Soon after he declared his goal of wiping out all Titans.
Fast forward five or so years, ironically Eren has become the thing he hated the most,
a Titan himself.
Moreso, Eren has a Titan has become hope for humanity within the walls.
So whether Eren liked it or not he's become a very special individual, but there's a lot
more to it including Eren's family and friends.
Let's first get a look at Eren's family.
Notably his father Grisha Yeager.
For something who you saw so little of in the anime, Grisha has had so much importance
in the story.
Grisha was formerly a member of the Eldian restorationists.
Later on he went on to Inherit the Attack Titan and the special mission from Eren Kruger.
After Wall Maria came down Grisha added the founding Titan into his collection.
After that for whatever reason he said I'm out.
And he passed the ball, which included all the trouble to Eren Yeager.
Also just a quick side note about Eren, due to his father having been a Titan shifter,
could Eren possibly be one of the first babies born from one of the titan shifters?
Probably not but I don't think there's been many cases throughout history.
Anyway, next to Eren's father is Eren's father, Carla Yeager.
As far as you know so far, she isn't anything too special.
Watch, Isayama might pull a Naruto.
It'll later come out that she's from royal blood.
And then you got the last of Eren's direct family, Zeke Yeager.
Zeke being Grisha's first son with Royal blood, which makes him Eren's half brother.
Zeke as the beast titan has been seen as this leader figure for the warrior group.
Notably he's wiped out most of the Survey Corps members.
So really, what a lovely brother to have!
Talk about having family problems . . . So in all what does this all mean?
Right when Eren was born, he inherited a lot of baggage.
Mostly due to his father's shenanigans.
And thanks dad for just rage quitting!
Currently in the Attack on Titan story, Eren is owner of not one but two titan powers.
Thank you dad!
One of them being the Attack Titan also known as Shingeki no Kyojin.
Then you got the second one, the founding Titan.
This one is perhaps the most overall powerful one and the most important one.
So far you've only seen Eren briefly uses this as the end of season 2.
The combination of these two titan powers makes Eren a prime target when he's out in
the front lines, since there's so many people who want to steal his powers, especially the
founding titan one.
I did bring up family earlier but let's not forget about friends.
Eren's got this hot Asian sister and this mentor buddy Levi.
Both of these two come from the Ackerman clan who may or may not be some sort of Titan themselves.
To Eren's right side you have Eren's best buddy, Armin.
This guy's gone through so much and currently he's a Titan shifter and not just anyone,
the Colossal Titan.
Notably this was the one that kick started the death of his mother.
So back to the original question, what makes Eren so special?
It all started with parting gift left by his father.
It's then followed by due to this Eren has helped shape those around him.
Not to mention all the world events that have been influenced by Eren going forward.
The Current Attack on Titan story is where it's at thanks to you Eren.
May you live a long life with plenty to drink!
We just did find out that Eren is a heavy drinker!
But anyway let me hear from you!
What do you think about Eren?
I've seen a lot of mixed feelings online about Eren
Where does he stand for you from all the Attack on Titan characters?
Is Eren your favorite?
Least Favorite?
Somewhere in the middle?
And has that now changed now that Eren is older?
