Captain Levi, also known as humanity strong a soldier. Levi is known to be a
pretty small guy. He comes in at five feet three inches or 160 centimeters.
The only males count shorter than him is Connie. Levi also weighs 143 pounds or 65
kilograms. No surprise at all to find out the Levi's is totally ripped underneath.
My god those abs! They might make you question whether you want Mikasa
abs or some Levi's abs instead! For the longest time
Levi's age was the total mystery. Go ahead take a wild guess at the age of
the strongest man! After hardcore fans continue to bug him, Mr Isayama
caved in with an answer. Levi was revealed to be in his early 30s, yeah 30s! So
how close was your guess? I originally guessed that he was in in mid-20's. And
let's not forget about Levi's birthday! That falls on December 25th. You could go
ahead and do a combo celebration with Levi and Santa Claus on that day. Have
fun opening up some Titan sized gifts!
The voice behind humanity Strongest Man is Hiroshi Kamiya. This guy is a seasoned
veteran voice actor. Take a look at a bit of his work:
There's Yuzuru from Angel Beats. Garland from Beyblade G revolution. That
Bleach villain from the third Bleach movie.
Mephisto from Blue Exorcist. Kiyomi from the Bake Monogatari Series. Kouji from
Digimon frontier. Shinji from the Fate Stay Night series. Seijuurou from
Kuroko's basketball. Yato from Noragami. Chotomatsu from mr.
Osomatsu. He even had a cameo in SAO season 2 as a top ranked player in GGO.
Yeah the one that got taken out right away but that's not all! He doe she also
voiced Peeta from the Japanese dub for the Hunger Games and he was even in
Batman V Superman as Lex Luthor. Yeah, that one really is a surprise!
Mr. Isayama revealed several of his inspirations for Levi in the past. The
first one is actually Rorschach from The Watchmen film. After seeing the movie
Rorschach really stuck with so he decided to use him as a starting point.
Rorschach and Levi are pretty short in height and they have amazing fighting
abilities. The two are also at the peak of human strength and have incredible
reflexes and precision. The cravat at that Levi wears was definitely inspired by
Rorschach's white scarf. Both of these two also take no issue with using
violence to do what needs to get done. All I gotta say is look forward to
seeing Levi in Attack on Titan season 3. As for more into Levi's design,
Mr. Isayama was aiming for something similar to Hiei from Yuyu
Hakusho. Levi is even the exact same height as him. Mr. Isayama has further
revealed in the past Q&A that the inspiration for Levi's height is due to a
concept coming from Astro Boy and Kyuzo from Kurosawa's the Seven Samurai. In all
this is quite a mixture to a gave birth to Levi!
Have you ever wondered what was behind Levi's cleaning OCD. If your guess was
that it came from its past life in Underground City, bingo!
Levi's present-day obsession with cleanliness comes from in his childhood
of living in filth. Levi's really disliked it so much that
now he does anything in his power to keep everything clean. One of his top
wishes growing up was just to have a clean place to eat and sleep. Levi also
has noticed how purer the air feels outside of the walls. In comparison the
air inside the walls feels so rotten to him. Perhaps it's one of the hidden
driving forces behind what keeps him fighting. Levi may want everyone to
experience its fresh breath of freedom someday.
One interesting thing you may have spotted from Levi is his drinking style.
Levi prefers to told his cup in this specific manner. It almost reminds me of
how L drank his coffee. The reason for why Levi does is actually dates back to
his time in the Underground City. Levi was finally able to buy some black tea
and a tea set after saving up money. As soon as Levi poured himself a cup of tea,
unfortunately the cup handle broke and the whole cup shattered! Perhaps this
must have traumatized him a bit. Ever since then he's decided to hold his
teacup in this manner. What's interesting to notice that that
Levi loves his black teas so much. He makes sure to spend a good portion of
the Survey Corps fund to keep it in stock. Eventually when all these
Titan battles are over, Levi even have to dream of opening up his own tea
shop. Keep on fighting for that dream Levi!
My god, Levi sure is Mr. super popular. Perhaps
Levi is also your most favorite attack on Titan character too. To confirm this
even more so Levi has won two popularity polls in Japan! He easily won both times
by a landslide. It really is no surprise that Levi was quick to get his own
spin-off series. Since you're watching this hopefully you already seen it or
read it Attack on Titan No Regrets. When the first volume for that was published
it sold almost a quarter million copies in just the first week alone. There's so
many series out there that will kill for those numbers total. Eventually No
Regrets went on to so half a million copies total. Some really hardcore fans
also got a chance to buy a Levi sized statue of him. The price? An affordable
almost 16 thousand dollars but hey it's totally worth every penny if you
love Levi!
Poor Levi, not only did he have his close friends killed but the small guy also
constantly suffers from insomnia. Perhaps this explains Levi's crude language and
attitude but it's actually no joke. According to Mr. Isayama, Levi
cannot sleep more than three hours at a time. Try to imagine that! It does seem
like Levi has gotten used to this sleep problem over time. Most of the time Levi
doesn't bother changing out of its uniform and just falls asleep in a chair.
I am a bit surprised that this hasn't affected Levi's Titan killing
abilities, or on second thought, maybe it has! Imagine if everything up until now
has been Levi on three hours of sleep. Levi's full godmode will be a loss
if he ever gets a good night's rest. Come on Erwin make it happen!
The Attack on Titan series made several changes when being adapted into the
anime. An interesting one involves Levi. Tn the final episode before the final
battle within wall Sina, Levi faced off against a female Titan in the Titan
forest. This is unfortunately where Levi suffered that serious injury Levi was
later way too injured to help out during the fall in his battle. Despite this in
the final episode you surprisingly see Levi's sliced Eren out of its Titan. This
was Levi using his 3d maneuver gear. In reality this scene never happened in the
manga, Levi never showed up. He stayed right next to Erwin the whole time.
It's funny to notice that even the anime added an extra scene from Erwin where he
told Levi that he should stay putt since he had that injury. The whole reason that
Levi was even wearing that outfit was due to him being officially off duty in
the first place. What's also interesting is what happened later cuz of this added
scene. This happened to confuse a bunch of people as to why Levi was out of
commission in Attack on Titan season 2 but who could really blame them? If you
only saw the anime you just found Levi using his gear an
episode or two ago.
So what exactly made Levi the man that he is today? The No Regret series gave
you a glimpse of Levi in his 20s but let's dive deeper! You saw Levi living in
the Underground City, he had actually been there his whole life. The only
family that young Levi had was his mother. His mother was this poor
prostitute that worked in the Underground. She eventually ended up
getting pregnant by a client. She made the decision to keep the child and this
led up to Levi being born. Right here do notice a parallel to Rorschach whose
mother was also a prostitute. Unfortunately Levi's mother later died
from an illness. When he was still so young a visiting uncle happened to find
a young Levi in the same room where the corpse of his mother remained. His uncle
couldn't just leave Levi there so ended up taking Levi under his wing. This
man is the one that taught Levi everything he knows, from drinking to
effectively using a knife to kill. Eventually this man ended up
disappearing, leaving Levi alone in the the ground. What Levi learn from him must
have been enough since Levi later went on to become the most well known thug in
the Underground City!
About Levi's name his full name is Levi Ackerman, sounds familiar doesn't it?
That's right! Mikasa and Levi are related, they're
brother and sister. Who woulda thunk it? Just kidding about that last part, but
the two are related. The connection hasn't been fully revealed yet. Levi
could be a distant relative to Mikasa or perhaps even her uncle. What's funny is
that within the Attack on Titan fans these two are still a very very popular
couple that people shipped together. Yeah, never mind that Levi is over twice
her age, they're also blood related! I know that people who like to describe
Attack on Titan as a game of throne of anime but come on! Anyway this doesn't
mean that Levi gets the buff from being from the same Ackerman bloodline similar
to Mikasa. This is the same bloodline that served as a king's sword and shield
in the past. It's the family that resulted as a sub product of Titan
science. Once again we still don't know the full extent of this family's power.
The time when Levi is hidden potential awaken has also not been revealed yet.
Anyway definitely cannot wait to see the two Ackerman kicking some Titan tail in
Attack on Titan season 3! Hey guys thanks for watching please be sure like and
