8 Hidden Facts About Eren Yeager That Fans Rarely Know (2024)

Eren has had sharp observational skills since he was young. He often notices small things that others overlook, such as recognizing the fear Mikasa felt after her parents were killed.

Eren has a complicated relationship with his half-brother, Zeke Yeager. Although they have different goals, both are involved in a plot that manipulates each other, showing that Eren does not fully trust Zeke even though he appears to cooperate with him.

Before becoming a soldier, Eren received a lot of knowledge about the outside world from his father, Grisha. This included information about Marley, the Titans, and the history of the world that motivated Eren even more to seek freedom.

Although Eren is known as a stubborn and determined character, many of his actions are influenced by Armin. Armin often serves as a source of inspiration and hope for Eren, who sometimes doubts himself.

Eren is often vulnerable to emotional pressure. For example, he experienced severe trauma after witnessing his mother being killed by a Titan, which continues to haunt him and affect many of his decisions.

Although Eren is seen as a hero by many on Paradise Island, he often feels uncomfortable with his popularity. Eren has never aspired to be a symbol of hope and is more focused on his own mission.

Although he possesses the power of the Founding Titan, Eren initially could not fully utilize it due to the limitations of royal blood. He could only harness this power under certain conditions, such as when in contact with someone of royal blood.

Eren realizes that all holders of Titan power have a limited time to live, known as the "Curse of Ymir." This makes Eren more hurried and resolute in taking action, as he knows his time is limited.
