Line 14:
* [[Badass Adorable]]: Zoe is as good in fighting against Titans as any other experienced member of the Survey Corps, but carries her mission with unusual child-like excitement.
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: Pixies is a very respected leader and soldier, but he also has the nickname "The Stranger" because of his behaviour considered odd, like saying he would like to be devoured by a beautiful female Titan (which does not exist).
* [[Cargo Cult]]: In the five years preceding the story, a cult who worships the walls themselves grew proeminencepreeminence on Eldia, claiming the walls are a gift from God to protect mankind and must not be touched. They're so feverous about the walls a member violently objects to even have them reinforced because they're supposedly so perfect in Episode 14.
* [[Cruel to Be Kind]]: Episode 14. Levi kicks and beats Eren brutally so the Survey Corps take him into custody, as to demonstrate to the judge and to his opponents in the trial, the Military Police, that he can take care of Eren if he ever goes berserk in Titan form.
* [[Divided We Fall]]: Episode 11. Pixies and Eren discuss the concept, and Pixies affirms indeed humans will fall if they keep struggling with each other while the Titans are getting dangerously close to extinguishing them.
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: By the beginning of Episode 8, Armin was mentally driven in a corner and wanted to commit suicide with a blade. Mikasa throws the blade out and Connie grabs him, despite his warnings that carrying him will make it difficult to advance in a titan-filled area.
* [[Enemy Mine]]: Discussed and defied in Episode 11. Pixies talks to Eren about how in the past humans used to fight between themselves over reasons like race and ethnics before Titans appeared, and back then some already teorized only a threat big enough to threaten all of mankind would stop it. Eren finds the notion silly and reminds Pixies of how even in the desperate situation involving the Titans humans are still fighting on a small scale.
* [[Establishing Character Moment]]: Episode 10. Pixies's second proper scene involves him casually strolling along a wall despite the very angry Titans snarling at it the bottom, and making comments about being eaten by a pretty female Titan (such a creature is never seen).
* [[Eye Scream]]: Armin's plan on Episode 8 involves a group of soldiers shooting titans in the eyes so others can sneak from behind and kill them.
* [[Great Wall]]: The concentric walls protecting the city of humans. They're dozens of meters tall, and thick and strong enough to have been repelling the titular giants, who are essentially living humanoid siege engines, for at least a century. If built in the real world the outermost wall, Wall Maria, would encompass a roughly circular area stretching from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico in the United States, or from Amsterdam to the Aegean Sea in Europe. Naturally, the outer rings fall at the start of the story.
Line 26:
* [[I'm a Humanitarian]]: Taken to the extreme levels, as titans are only seen eating humans and nothing else.
* [[Identity Amnesia]]: When Eren comes back to his senses as human in Episode 9, he has completely forgotten his time as Titan. Thankfully his Titan personality was still heroic.
* [[Mad Scientist]]: Zoe Hange is a benevolent version of this trope. She wants to study titans for the good of mankind, but goes it in a way so eccentric that freaks out, if not disgusts other people, like calling them by name or going in long diatribes about phenomenosphenomena similar to Titans like cannibalscannibal criminals. Interestingly, it was a not a trait she was born with: when she discovered that the heads of Titans were excessively light for their size, she gained interest in studying them.
* [[Neat Freak]]: Levi is obsessed with cleanliness.
* [[No Sense of Personal Space]]: Justified. As seen above, Zoe is very interested in Titans. Eren has the powers of becoming one. The result is she trying to get as close as him as possible several times if only to get some more clue about Titans from observation.
