Mike Zacharias

During the mission, after ordering the others to escape and warn the surrounding towns, Mike takes on nine Titans by himself in order to buy them time to get away.

Mike manages to kill five of the Titans before he encounters an Abnormal Titan that worries him due to its unusual features and behavior. The Beast Titan grabs Mike's horse and hurls it towards him, forcing Mike to dodge it and inadvertently jump into the mouth of a waiting Titan. Mike's legs are crushed and the Beast Titan orders the Titan not to eat Mike so it can question him. The Titan ignores the command and the Beast Titan crushes its head and begins questioning Mike about his maneuvering equipment. Mike is too shocked to respond, causing the Beast Titan to become impatient and simply steal his gear before abandoning him. Mustering his courage, Mike tries to fight back but the Beast Titan allows the surrounding Titans to move freely again.

Mike was terrified, he screams,

“NO!!! PLEASE, STOP!”

But suddenly, an attractive young newbie to the Survey Corps appears, slashing the nape of two of the titans, killing them. She takes Mike’s hand, using her 3D maneuver gear to escape.
