The Titans That Can Talk: A Deep Dive Into Their Voices
As a passionate Attack on Titan commentator and life-long fan, one of the most frequent questions I get asked is: which Titans can actually talk?
Out of the nightmarish menagerie of towering Titans, few possess the capacity for intelligent speech. Across thousands of manga chapters and anime episodes, only about half-a-dozen exhibit clear verbal communication skills, with a handful more demonstrating limited vocalizations.
In this comprehensive expert guide, we will analyze the key Titans capable of language, study how their voices differ, and spotlight what allows these eccentric exceptions to shatter the norm of voiceless Titan hordes. Buckle up your ODM gear, because we have a lot to unpack on Titan talkers!
The Beast Titan: Commanding Pure Titans Verbally
Without a doubt, Zeke Yeager‘s Beast Titan stands out as the #1 Titan exhibiting fluent verbal skills in its monstrous form. This furry giant has showcased complex speech ranging from issuing strategic commands during the Battle of Shiganshina to effortlessly conversing with Reiner in the midst of warfare.
In fact, Beast Titan Zeke coordinated swarms of Pure Titans using only his booming voice, screaming orders that sent lesser Titans sprinting or tossing projectiles with uncanny precision. His language mastery extends far beyond roars or cries – no need for temper tantrums here!
Could the Beast Titan‘s ape-like physiology granting advanced vocal cords explain its proficiency? Or does the speech stem from Zeke‘s royal bloodline? We will analyze those interesting theories later!
| Titan | Vocal Capability |
|---|---|
| Beast Titan | Fully articulate human speech |
| Jaw Titan (Ymir) | Fully articulate human speech |
| Jaw Titan (Porco) | None observed |
For now, no other Titan matches the Beast Titan‘s skill at issuing multi-step verbal commands to control hordes or carrying on casual banter mid-combat. That earns it the #1 spot on this list!
