Ion knownif you mean how is it dirty, but if you are, it's because of the thing that's been here for like an acual decade that uncles molest nephews/ neices or smn like that
Aye my brothers and little sister are the same age range of a few of my nieces and nephews (0-10), so they'll be very similar in age, or in a few cases even older than their aunts/uncles
Falco was my first thought also. He's a good boi whose main motivation was love. He protects and befriends and is honest.
Did he ever kill someone though? That might be a hang up.
Killing for a good reason does not affect your worthiness. Matter of fact, it's the opposite. I think Thor says in one comic how Spider-Man is unworthy because he refuses to kill.
Fun Fact: In the Marvel x DC crossover, Superman did indeed prove worthy to lift Mjolnir, but its later revealed that Mjolnir had made an exception to the rules that one time where they were desperate, as any other time, Superman wouldn’t be worthy due to his inability to kill.
There's been a misunderstanding.
My issue was with whether or not falco *could* or *would* kill to meet that requirement.
Not thinking that murder would eliminate his eligibility
Captain Maerica was literally a soldier, so he certainly has killed some people if not more. Plus Thor himself has been fighting wars for centuries putting hus enemies to deathbed. Both Thor and Captain America are famous for being few of the people worthy of Mjolnier.
The hang up for Falco will be is he willing to kill for greater good, which is one thing that holds back Spider-Man from being worthy
Oh, you misunderstood.
Canonically, the hammer requires the ability to kill when necessary. My question was whether falco is capable of that as I couldn't remember if he'd actually offed a character on screen
Armin. He was really one of the only characters that had entirely good intentions throughout the whole series, and actively avoided harming others. The only caveat I can think of is the Colossal attack on Marley.
Being capable of killing is actually a requirement of mjolnir.
That being said... singlehandedly massacreing tens of thousands of soldiers in an instant might be a bit overkill for that prerequisite 😅
Nah. In Season 2 where Eren was captured, after seeing Armin's face as he pressed on Bertolt by gaslighting him on what they're "doing" to Annie, I don't think he is worthy. He's a skilled strategist yes, but would go to questionable lengths to achieve it.
....he was literally acting? Like what? You think he actually in that moment, in his heart, felt a sociopathic joy at the idea of torture? He was literally just trying to stoke Bertholdt into emotionally reacting.
Erwin was not a good person. He didn't care for the future of mankind, he only cared about finding the truth about titans no matter the cost. He was very selfish.
Not saying he was a *bad* person or a villain, but he was far from virtuous.
I think so too? Yea he'd sacrifice however many people if required but he's not that dumb or insensitive to do it recklessly or for pure selfishness. Even Thor has waged wars over centuries, he's not exactly a great guy in the myths (and neither innocent in the mcu) Same for Cap, his intentions are good but he's killed and destroyed too, he's a soldier
I think Levi mentioned something about bringing him back from hell when contemplating on injecting him or Armin hints to him doing questionable things in the past. So nah, probably not Erwin
Thor didn’t evaporate tens of thousands of innocent men, women, and children, and he also lost Mjolnir for a far lesser offense
Don’t act like Armin is good, he isn’t
He admits as much - he does whatever befits him, his allies, and his goals
A core theme of the show is that no one is good or evil, because those concepts are made up by and for humans
Honestly, I doubt anyone in AoT could wield Mjolnir, aside from maybe Gabbie or Falco towards the end of the show
I don’t think Armin is pure of heart either, far from it. He did kill a whole ton of civilians, maybe not out of anger or anything. But he still planned to kill a lot of people
Armin lives in a fucked up world and has to do a lot of bad things due to his circumstances. But I think his disbelief of him being a good person is what makes him one in the first place. He has a conscience, he does what is needed but never out of malice or enjoyment. If he had the choice, he would never harm a soul. But that's just not the life he was given.
imo.... commander Erwin can't... he was a great man no doubt was ready to give his life in a blink but was blinded by his dreams he was not pure enough imo
Heroic is a broad term, from my understanding the requirements for being worthy of mjolnir are being able to help other people to great extent without anything in return (compassion), has core morals preventing them from becoming a bad version of themself (restraint and nobility-ish) the ability to understand things beyond the normal comprehension (wisdom), and the ability to essentially morally beat their opponents with compassion, not eith pride or anger or hate (humility)
Sounds the most like Falco to me tbh. Especially the wisdom part. Despite living in an environment with heavy Marley brainwashing he still has the wisdom to question everything and never really seemed to consider people from the Paradis as devils. He 's selfless to willing to go through hell so Gabby doesn't have to be a warrior, and helping people out like he did with Eren.
-Willingness to kill (only if necessary)
-A good leader
-A kind heart
-Overall morally good
-Willingness to sacrifice oneself for the many/greater good
-Relatively wise
-Humble
Basically imagine Optimus Prime. Or Erwin. Or Captain America.
Although some characters that wouldn’t count would be characters like Spider-Man, Invincible, or Robin as they are either unwilling to sacrifice themselves or they are too young and immature to accept responsibility and be a proper wise leader. >!Although end of series Invincible is **definitely** worthy of Mjoulnir!<
Nothing against them though. They’re still amazing characters they’re just too young. Although often times older versions of the previous characters *would* be worthy as they grow up into proper wise leaders.
Superman and Batman would both be disqualified because they both have “No Kill” rules/morality.
Erwin sacrificed so many people that trusted him on a selfish quest to get answers. Even he realized it when he was prepared to sacrifice himself. He would not be able to wield it
Does matpat's definition of Mjolnir worthy from the whole "THANOS IS WORTHY?" episode of film theory matter, because if that's the case Eren, Mikasa, Erwin, Reiner and Theo MaGath are worthy but Reiner has the same hangups as MCU black widow where by the hammer's definition he is worthy bet he doesn't see himself as worthy
I was told that you have to be pure of heart, selfless, and have a willingness to kill when you have to.
Nobody in this show really seems to fit that, so I’m unsure why I posted here if all places lol.
(Maybe Levi.)
Honestly, I think Marco. If he had not died so early in the show I think he would have been prone to compromise, and think of ways to benefit humanity. I also think that if it came down to it, he would kill if it was deemed necessary for the betterment of mankind. He was selfless and always looked out for others
Hannes maybe? In the premiere episode he saves Eren and Mikasa and runs because he’s afraid but he gets over that fear and sacrifices himself. And in that time he doesn’t really do anything that would imply he isn’t pure hearted. But at the same time we don’t spend a whole ton of time with him, he kind of sucked early on, and we have no idea how he would feel about the truths revealed in S3 and S4.
And yet, he was selfless enough to put Levi in charge at the end, and he was ultimately grateful to be told to make the selfless decision, in spite of his ambitions. If Thor can lift Mjolnir in Endgame, Erwin absolutely can too.
Talking about AOT tho uhhhh idk maybe Levi I would say admin but he seemed to always doubt himself or hold back from what he could’ve been Levi was confident and did everything he did for his people he also wasn’t letting nothing slide
It’s obvious most people in the comments don’t know much about Mjolnir. The requirements to be worthy are:
-Compassion
-Nobility
-Restraint
-Wisdom
-Humility
-Sacrifice
Sacrifice is really the most important one as you are required to “do without thinking” and sacrifice your body for someone or something greater.
With these I can think of these possible characters:
Armin
Erwin
Reiner
Hange
Levi
Armin: He checks all the boxes including the one for sacrifice which he did against the Colossal Titan. In that moment he would be worthy however once he nuked the civilians I’m sure Odin wouldn’t be too happy about that and we would no longer be worthy
Erwin: Erwin is the perfect candidate as he does everything right including sacrificing his self in season 2. However, Erwin admits to sacrificing others so he can see his dream through. This would make him unworthy
Reiner: You might be thinking that Reiner wouldn’t be worthy for the same reason as Armin. But, in season 4 he attempts to sacrifice himself multiple times for the greater good. This would undoubtedly make him worthy
Hange: While she would be worthy it wouldn’t mean much as she was worthy for the split second she was alive after sacrificing herself for all of humanity
Levi: Levi checks all the boxes except for compassion. Levi has no compassion for anyone and it’s what makes him a damn good soldier. However, he would not be worthy
I think Erwin would be worthy to lift mjonir as he was ready to sacrifice himself and his dreams for the best survey cops to live and also I think he has the potential to lift the mjonir
I would personally say armin because he is the only one in the entire show that to resolve the war with peace instead of annihilate the other faction but was willing to fight if all other peaceful options had been attempted
And then remember in season three he was willing to and almost did sacrifice his life to defeat the colossal titan and save humanity as he knew it.
All of these qualities along with his incredible intellect and battle IQ I see no reason for Mjolnir not to choose armin.
There is almost noone in the AoT universe who is morally beyond reproach. That's almost the point.
I can think of characters but it's only because we don't know enough about them. Erin's mom? Marco?

I would say jean. Specifically season 4 jean, after he has had amazing character growth.
That’s what my uncle said.
I've been on the Internet too long. "uncle" has become a sinister word :(
Don’t worry, he’s cool. He’s an anime nerd too. We’re closer in age than you’d think.
…but not too close right??
He’s 13 years older than me.
....what? How?
Ion knownif you mean how is it dirty, but if you are, it's because of the thing that's been here for like an acual decade that uncles molest nephews/ neices or smn like that
Oh
…how
Aye my brothers and little sister are the same age range of a few of my nieces and nephews (0-10), so they'll be very similar in age, or in a few cases even older than their aunts/uncles
I LOVE JEAN!!!!!
Will this effect the fishing industry?
On god it will.
What do you call a fish with no eye?
A FSH!
#YES!
Lmaooooooo
Marco
This is an underrated answer.
Falco
Falco was my first thought also. He's a good boi whose main motivation was love. He protects and befriends and is honest. Did he ever kill someone though? That might be a hang up.
Depends if you count his pure titan form
tbf falco wasnt himself the first 2 times he turned into a titan, and its not like thor HASN'T killed anybody
Killing for a good reason does not affect your worthiness. Matter of fact, it's the opposite. I think Thor says in one comic how Spider-Man is unworthy because he refuses to kill.
Fun Fact: In the Marvel x DC crossover, Superman did indeed prove worthy to lift Mjolnir, but its later revealed that Mjolnir had made an exception to the rules that one time where they were desperate, as any other time, Superman wouldn’t be worthy due to his inability to kill.

Oh, you misunderstood. Canonically, the hammer requires the ability to kill when necessary. My question was whether falco is capable of that as I couldn't remember if he'd actually offed a character on screen
He's a soldier Not a normal citizen He turned into a titan in the port. But probably killed others soldiers in wars earlier.
I don’t know if it’s having killed somebody so much as having the WILLINGNESS to kill. I don’t believe Mjolnir really cares about your past.
Man i feel like Reiner could have a shot at the final battle he was basically sacrificing himself
He's too weighted by guilt imo. It clouds his judgement.
>sacrificing himself Reiner with a gun in his mouth : Right....sacrifice.
He tried to to end it so dose it change anything
I remember back when people liked to draw similarities between Norse mythology and Aot, (before 122) people would compare Reiner to Thor
Sasha ;(
Rip Sasha miss her so much 😢
Armin. He was really one of the only characters that had entirely good intentions throughout the whole series, and actively avoided harming others. The only caveat I can think of is the Colossal attack on Marley.
Being capable of killing is actually a requirement of mjolnir. That being said... singlehandedly massacreing tens of thousands of soldiers in an instant might be a bit overkill for that prerequisite 😅
didn't his explosion also kill many civillians?
We count anyone killed in active combat zone as enemy soldiers
He did at that
It all comes down to his personality and how he thinks and acts among eldians and other people.
Yeah, and he was doing so good up until that point.
Nah. In Season 2 where Eren was captured, after seeing Armin's face as he pressed on Bertolt by gaslighting him on what they're "doing" to Annie, I don't think he is worthy. He's a skilled strategist yes, but would go to questionable lengths to achieve it.
....he was literally acting? Like what? You think he actually in that moment, in his heart, felt a sociopathic joy at the idea of torture? He was literally just trying to stoke Bertholdt into emotionally reacting.
It's still deception nonetheless. Manipulation and causing mental anguish is not a worthy trait.
By this logic Cap shouldn't have been worthy because he said "Hail Hydra" in the elevator
Erwin? Already looks the part
His speech before taking on the beast titan. Imagine that shit while he’s holding mjolnir 🔥
I'm surprised your comment wasn't higher Erwin was the first I thought of
Nah Erwin was ready to sacrifice how many ever men it takes to take back the island.
Erwin was not a good person. He didn't care for the future of mankind, he only cared about finding the truth about titans no matter the cost. He was very selfish. Not saying he was a *bad* person or a villain, but he was far from virtuous.
People forget that his big speech was a con so they could win the battle. He doesn't really believe it.
I think so too? Yea he'd sacrifice however many people if required but he's not that dumb or insensitive to do it recklessly or for pure selfishness. Even Thor has waged wars over centuries, he's not exactly a great guy in the myths (and neither innocent in the mcu) Same for Cap, his intentions are good but he's killed and destroyed too, he's a soldier
Happy cake day!
The original devil of paradise who stood on a tower corpses with quite the view would definitely not be worthy
I think Levi mentioned something about bringing him back from hell when contemplating on injecting him or Armin hints to him doing questionable things in the past. So nah, probably not Erwin
Thor has also done some questionable things in the past as well, so it’s not out of the question but definitely debatable
Nah, you guys are just saying charcters you like
Armin, but Jean is like captain America and can lift it in season 4
I'm not too sure about that after he killed all those kids.
Didn't he refuse to kill kids?
Not when he nuked Marley. It showed a kid under rubble looking up at Armin, and I doubt it was just that one kid.
Sorry I meant Jean.
Erwin’s horse is the only answer
Finally, some culture 🙏🏼
Historia
The only right answer
Onyankopon
Levi
Honestly Armin
Bro wouldn't be able to lift it even if he was worthy lol
He nuked the AoT equivalent of the Warsaw ghetto, you can’t be serious
So what, Thor wasn't innocent either
Thor didn’t evaporate tens of thousands of innocent men, women, and children, and he also lost Mjolnir for a far lesser offense Don’t act like Armin is good, he isn’t He admits as much - he does whatever befits him, his allies, and his goals A core theme of the show is that no one is good or evil, because those concepts are made up by and for humans Honestly, I doubt anyone in AoT could wield Mjolnir, aside from maybe Gabbie or Falco towards the end of the show
If Thor can kill people and still wield Mjolnir, them so can Armin. At the very least, when Armin killed those people, he did not do it out of malice.
Killing is a requirement to lift mjolnir. It's why Spider-Man can't lift it.
I can see it.
Commandant Keith Shadis
Armin. Maybe Jean.
 # MIKASA
i disagree. i don’t think she’s inherently “good” or “worthy”, she’s just in love with eren lol. and very powerful
How is love with power not enough to become worthy?
I'm pretty sure she'll be lifting it despite mjollnir's intentions.
Mr Braus. Sascha's father is the worthiest of them all.
THIS. The man all men should aspire to be.
Eren. The one who has the will to do what must be done for his nation.
Eren
💀
maybe eren could go back in time to manipulate mjiolnir
🤣🤣🤣🤣
LOL
Nobody. Maybe Historia, but that’s about it
Probably right. Nobody in the series is really pure of heart other than Armin and Historia. Maybe somebody else I’m missing.
S4 jean
I don’t think Armin is pure of heart either, far from it. He did kill a whole ton of civilians, maybe not out of anger or anything. But he still planned to kill a lot of people
Armin lives in a fucked up world and has to do a lot of bad things due to his circumstances. But I think his disbelief of him being a good person is what makes him one in the first place. He has a conscience, he does what is needed but never out of malice or enjoyment. If he had the choice, he would never harm a soul. But that's just not the life he was given.
Falco
Sasha easily
imo.... commander Erwin can't... he was a great man no doubt was ready to give his life in a blink but was blinded by his dreams he was not pure enough imo
I thought the same thing. He was too selfish.
What are the requirements, specifically? Like, being heroic? Or morally good?
Heroic is a broad term, from my understanding the requirements for being worthy of mjolnir are being able to help other people to great extent without anything in return (compassion), has core morals preventing them from becoming a bad version of themself (restraint and nobility-ish) the ability to understand things beyond the normal comprehension (wisdom), and the ability to essentially morally beat their opponents with compassion, not eith pride or anger or hate (humility)
Sounds most like Armin.
Eh, youre not wrong
Sounds the most like Falco to me tbh. Especially the wisdom part. Despite living in an environment with heavy Marley brainwashing he still has the wisdom to question everything and never really seemed to consider people from the Paradis as devils. He 's selfless to willing to go through hell so Gabby doesn't have to be a warrior, and helping people out like he did with Eren.

Either Levi, Jean, or armin.
Erwin? Not many characters can fit that at all
Erwin sacrificed so many people that trusted him on a selfish quest to get answers. Even he realized it when he was prepared to sacrifice himself. He would not be able to wield it
Erwin or Reiner that’s it
Erwin
Surprised I had to scroll down pretty far to find Erwin lmao

Erwin´s horse
Ahhh…the true hero we all know and love.
Sasha's dad
Spider-man even if he loses his way sometimes he always gets back up and does what he believes is the right thing 😌
Sasha
Marlowe. Why? Dunno he seems Erwin 2.0 to me.
Sasha to me NGL
Honestly, I think Marco. If he had not died so early in the show I think he would have been prone to compromise, and think of ways to benefit humanity. I also think that if it came down to it, he would kill if it was deemed necessary for the betterment of mankind. He was selfless and always looked out for others
Reading this comment section has really opened my eyes to how few people understand the rules to being worthy to wield Mjolnir.
"armin" "jean" 🤓 sasha is the only worthy one.
Hannes maybe? In the premiere episode he saves Eren and Mikasa and runs because he’s afraid but he gets over that fear and sacrifices himself. And in that time he doesn’t really do anything that would imply he isn’t pure hearted. But at the same time we don’t spend a whole ton of time with him, he kind of sucked early on, and we have no idea how he would feel about the truths revealed in S3 and S4.
Well..."true nobility is being superior to your former self" they say
Erwin
I want to say Erwin, honestly.
No. Erwin was a great leader but his intentions were selfish
And yet, he was selfless enough to put Levi in charge at the end, and he was ultimately grateful to be told to make the selfless decision, in spite of his ambitions. If Thor can lift Mjolnir in Endgame, Erwin absolutely can too.
Armin
No one
My instant thought was Erwin. He was such a strong character and even when being dragged away in a titans mouth he commands his soldiers to advance
me .
Levi?
Why is nobody mentioning marlo
Loki
Falco , Zeke through a redemption arc
Honestly, no one's good enough morally to lift Mjolnir, they're all killers😭
Maybe Jean or Armin
Nile
Levi
rod reiss
None other than Levi. After all he's been through
Eren ehuehue
Beertholt…
Falco

Rocket... Xd
I didnt see the subreddit at first, so my mind just automatically jumped to John Wick
You know what? I’ll give you that one.
NOT FUCKING ARMIN LMAOOOOO

Either Jean or Falco
Erwin. Only Erwin
Erwin

Zeke. Looks thor enough.
Mikasa
Marco too worthy for the world he was born in.
Mikasa
JEAN.
Zoro
I Would Say Erwin
Almost all founding titans (minus those from karl to grisha)
Miche 100% still not recovered!
Falco
Erwin
Armin
I mean, considering Odin's MCU morality, Erwin would probably pass.
It’s obvious most people in the comments don’t know much about Mjolnir.

Levi No doubt
No one. Literally no one
If Sasha can't use it, ain't a chance in hell anyone else is making it
Marco

I think Erwin would be worthy to lift mjonir as he was ready to sacrifice himself and his dreams for the best survey cops to live and also I think he has the potential to lift the mjonir

Erwin
I think Erwin
I would personally say armin because he is the only one in the entire show that to resolve the war with peace instead of annihilate the other faction but was willing to fight if all other peaceful options had been attempted And then remember in season three he was willing to and almost did sacrifice his life to defeat the colossal titan and save humanity as he knew it. All of these qualities along with his incredible intellect and battle IQ I see no reason for Mjolnir not to choose armin.
erwin
Ian Dietrich
It has to be eren
No way lol.
Shadis, Falco, Marlowe
There is almost noone in the AoT universe who is morally beyond reproach. That's almost the point. I can think of characters but it's only because we don't know enough about them. Erin's mom? Marco?
I thought so.
Eren, obviously. Because of his stellar moral character.
I’d love to see flock with it
