There’s one character in Attack on Titan who holds the power of causing a rebellion if he is ever killed by Hajime Isayama. You guessed it right, it’s Levi Ackerman, humanity’s strongest soldier. And Eren fans can scream all they want, but Levi’s presence is undefeatable in the series.
Levi is one of the main characters in Attack on Titan and his popularity exceeds that of the protagonist, Eren. Fans love his short-king attitude as well as his no-nonsense demeanor. No one can imagine Attack on Titan without Levi, the top soldier of Paradis. In a recent interview, Hajime Isayama explains why he deserves the title of Humanity’s Strongest

In the interview, Hajime Isayama explained that Levi does not have a huge body. He is not an overly muscular character either. It is true that Levi does not completely match a strong character aesthetic, but at the same time, he is the strongest fighter. Isayama further explains that Levi wouldn’t stand a chance in a fistfight owing to his small build.
But when it comes to fight titans with the 3D Maneuvering Gear, I think because he has a small body, he has the advantage but as for reaching the name “Humanity Strongest” it needs an unbelievable amount of effort.
Levi has a short stature and is lighter than any muscular character. This serves as an advantage since he can maneuver himself even better due to his lighter weight. Levi is extremely adept at using his gear, and his structure probably helps him reach the heights that his comrades can’t.

But to reach the title of ‘Humanity’s Strongest,’ Levi had to work justifiably hard. The author admits that to deserve such a title, Levi gave his utmost effort with no hesitation. In fact, the eyebags under his eyes are also undeniable proof of how dedicated he is to the Survey Corps.

According to the author, he did not realize he made an attractive character when he created Levi. His reaction was to ask himself if he made an attractive character. For a mangaka it might be hard to see their own creations as attractive, however, it is very clear to fans that Levi is the most dashing presence in Attack on Time.
As the series grew in popularity, Hajime Isayama realized that the anime/manga was also popular among women, despite it being a shonen manga. It turns out that the female fans were mostly rooting for Levi.
Levi was the character that I really enjoyed drawing, and I too think he’s an attractive character.’
Hajime Isayama was quick to admit that he loved creating Levi. The character has a complex history and manifests it in his personality. He is not just the strongest, but he also knows how to regulate new cadets and show them the ropes. He is either emotionless, annoyed, or angry but still manages to woo uncountable fans every day. One thing is for sure, Hajime Isayama struck gold when he crafted Levi’s character.
