The protagonist of 'Attack on Titan' is Eren Yeager, but calling him just the 'main character' feels like an understatement—he’s more like a force of nature wrapped in trauma and fury. The story starts with him as this wide-eyed kid dreaming of freedom beyond the walls, but boy, does that innocence get shattered fast. His journey from vengeful teenager to... well, whatever you'd call his later self (no spoilers!) is one of the most intense character arcs I’ve seen in anime. What’s fascinating is how divisive he becomes—some fans see him as a hero, others as a villain, and that ambiguity is what makes him so compelling.
Honestly, 'Attack on Titan' thrives on making you question who the real 'main character' is by the end. Mikasa and Armin have moments where they steal the spotlight, and even side characters like Levi or Erwin feel pivotal. But Eren’s choices drive the narrative in ways that leave you reeling. I still get chills thinking about certain scenes where his voice actor just knocks it out of the park—especially in season 4.
