Attack on Titan: All 9 Titans ranked from weakest to strongest
By Diana Nosa
8. Founding Titan
Height: 42 feet
Top 3 Unique Abilities:
- Titan Creation
- Titan Behavioral Control
- Control of the Subjects of Ymir
There’s no mistaking that the Founding Titan‘s ability to control not just all Pure Titans but also the Subjects of Ymir is a skill that absolutely supersedes every one of the Nine Titans. This Titan can create an army that can trump over anything and anyone in its path with one simple command.
What’s more, since the Founding Titan is the sole Titan that holds this trump card, it’s one with abilities that simply cannot be replicated or removed. To that end, this is a Titan that is a force to be reckoned with.
The Founding Titan may be a Titan with mind-controlling abilities, but this Titan doesn’t seem like it’s meant for one-on-one fights. For example, the previous owner of the Titan, Frieda Reiss, was easily defeated by Eren’s father, Grisha, despite initially having the upper hand.
Additionally, the Founding Titan’s form doesn’t seem practical enough to engage in any fights since it tends to be very long and bony. (Take a look at Ymir Fritz’s version of the Titan. Then, see Eren’s form.) Although all Titans’ forms are luck of the draw, it seems like most inheritors of this Titan have run into a great deal of bad luck, as their Titans are often deformed or just too enormous to move.
What Could Make the Founding Titan Stronger: The control aspect of the Titan is perfectly fine and stable. If only we could say the same about the body of the Titan! If there was a way to ensure each Founding Titan was miniature but bulky (at the very least), then we would imagine it’ll be able to hold its own in a physical battle.
