At the military's tribunal to determine what to do with Eren Yeager, Erwin proposes his plan to the military's commander-in-chief Darius Zackly that the boy be entrusted to the Survey Corps, so that his powers can be used to reclaim Wall Maria. In the Drama CD, The Case of Erwin Smith Disappearance [40], despite the fact that not only Erwin, but also all of the Survey Corps, except for Sasha and Connie, disappeared, Levi goes through tons of heavily dangerous traps just to rescue Erwin, calling his name, saying humanity has no future without Erwin. Levi on the other hand, swayed by his personal feelings for Erwin, refused to put him through that hell Floch mentioned, and chose to let him die with his humanity intact. Isayama is a self-proclaimed Levi fujoshi, which means that he likes the idea of male characters in romantic/sexual situations with other men. Levi's final thoughts to Hange after they sacrifice themselves in Chapter 132, is "Keep watching us.". While Hange is talking excitedly about their work with Titans, Erwin asks Levi want tea for today, Levi? To which Levi replies that the tea is nice, and from the Military Police. In "Ilse's Notebook OVA", after Erwin didn't give Hange permission to go hunting titans, Oluo started imitating Levi as he usually did, but Hange grabbed him angry almost hanging him, and they started complaining if he was in a real situation, how he would defeat Levi. Erwin says that he will put his trust in Levi for as long as they fight and he is sure Levi will continue believing in him in return. Erwin is on his knees, disarmed, at the mercy of Levi, while he is standing, but emotionally and physically overwhelmed by the death of his friends. He always speaks informally with Erwin (which is already peculiar considering their roles, and would be weird if they weren't as close as they are), so Levi calling him Commander is very impactful, especially since Erwin had been doubting himself and his choices over the last few days. The particle in the sentence implies double meaning to it, and that Levi is referring to someone other than the titans corresponding their feelings and it is speculated that someone is 'Levi' himself. Later, they stay by Erwins side and witness his passing in peace. Answer (1 of 23): *levi and eren* these two might not be like Eren and Mikasa with them actually having moments but majority of them are just Mikasa. Entirely different. Tatemae is the opposite of honne (), which is the things you really feel. Mikasa eventually becomes a member of Levis Special Operations Squad. In his rage, Levi wipes out the Titans single-handedly. Although Levi did not seem very in on the idea at first, because he was waiting to see if Eren was worth it, if he was really determined to serve humanity, or if he was a danger to them. Despite knowing that the lives of people he also cares about are in danger, right now, the person he cares about the most is Erwin, the only person that comes to his mind, who is the most important person in Levis life, whose existence exceeds that of Levis own [16]. Black Erwin returns to the Underground to capture Levi and his friends.

When the formation is suddenly attacked by a horde of Titans coming at their right flank, they change course toward the Titan Forest, and Levi's squad takes the central route. This means that Levi was promoted by Erwin, though its not expressed exactly when. In Attack on Titan: Junior High Chapter 30 & Chapter 43, Levi baked cookies and cooked omelette by himself for Hange so that they would have something to eat. And he takes all of his anger out on Eren and Jean when he violently breaks up their fight by beating them up, leaving the party abruptly to nurse the remainder of his beer alone. There is no other soldier other than Mikasa who could have accomplished what Levimanaged to accomplish against an army of hostile titans. Sexuality He goes on to tell them to change their shirt as it had become see through because of the wetness from the rain. She is also part of the Ackerman Clan along with her relative Levi Ackerman. But Erwin sadly declines since he has an appointment with Pixis. Luckily, the manga clears everything up by describing the way the Ackermans obtained their power of awakening. Since engelchen is german for "little angel" people thought it was just a typo, but it wasn't fixed later on, so Japanese fans theorized that the suspicious in came from Erwin's name () altogether, making Levi's codename mean something like "Erwin's little angel.". As Levi wants to make it up to Erwin for what he thinks he failed to do, Erwin shows his trust in him. Eyes Erwin spends a big part of his solo interview also praising Levi, saying stuff like Because hes at my side, the SC soldiers are able to fight heroically. Eren Jaeger (crush/kissed) Levi instantly feels Erwin approaching and recognizes him in the dark and Erwin approaches Levi and his Squad, as soon as he hears Levis voice. Levi expects that Erwin will trust him enough to tell him the truth about why he wants to lead the expedition because Levi is used to asking and getting honne from Erwin, and suddenly not getting it anymore implies that Erwin is shutting him out in a very serious way. I cant let him die before he fulfills what we have both vowed for. When Bertholt transforms and Hange is caught underneath the explosion, Levi is shown worrying for them and their squad on the other side of the wall. After all the characters routes are completed, both Erwin and Levi appear together to congratulate the player, which is a thing only other couple in the game do, Eren and Mikasa, who appear when the player finishes half of all the missions.

Levi, Mikasa, would have the same last name based off their clan. When Levi talks about Erwin, he says: I have owed him a lot of things. However, Erwin just softly laughs at his threat and tells Levi that he has to be there at the moment they learn the truth about this world, which leaves Levi speechless. He was a CEO of a holdings company. Mikasa also starts to gain a deeper understanding of her captain and holds more respect and trust towards him through the course of the series. In chapter 47 of the official "Attack on Titan: Junior High", Levi himself had sewn Hange's kimono after they had accidentally ripped it. While it's no surprise to anyone that Mikasa would go to the end of the earth for Eren, Levi also has a similar affection for Erwin, who he promises to avenge. In the anime, Hange smiles softly at him, suggesting that there is no resentment on their part. In the same conversation Daisuke and Kamiya shared about Midnight Sun, Daisuke expresses once again a very common reaction to Erwin and Levis relationship, which is that they cant be classified as merely comrades or friends, that theyre so much more. However, as Mikasa sees her own liege being punched, she pins Levi down, struggling to get the serum out of his hand. Erwin along with Armin developed a plan with numerous safety measures in place to prevent Annie from transforming.

At this moment Erwin suspects that this will be his last charge.
