What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He is an anti-hero as he is willing to kill people in order for the greater good making him a well-intentioned extremist.
- He acts too much of a jerk and cold-hearted to everybody, such as when he coldly told Eren that transforming was an order and that he had to make it happen.

- Can be rather cruel against his enemies, such as when he threatened to torture Annie and also tortured Sannes.
- Begrudgingly took part in Zeke's plan and participated in the Raid on Liberio in Marley, helping Zeke to fake his death, although he did not kill any person specifically.
- He is far too lethal, as he tortured Zeke then later cut his head brutally, though he had understandable reasons for the former, and in the latter case Zeke agreed with Levi dealing the killing blow, although he was not very eager for it. His lethalness is way too strong to even be considered minor as he also tortured Eren in season 1 without paying attention to other and also he tortured a military police member.
