OVA
Description
Flagon Turret commanded a squad in the Survey Corps alongside Erwin Smith, developing professional trust in Erwin's judgment while retaining his own cautious outlook, particularly regarding recruitment and strategy. He vehemently opposed enlisting Levi Ackermann, Furlan Church, and Isabel Magnolia from the Underground City during a leadership meeting, arguing their criminal backgrounds would undermine Corps morale and discipline. Despite Flagon's objections, Commander Keith Shadis approved their enlistment and assigned them directly to his squad, a decision Flagon openly questioned due to concerns about integrating former criminals.
Slim and young, Flagon had short, tousled blond hair and a thin beard. His expressions often registered displeasure or disgust, especially around Levi, Furlan, or Isabel, reflecting his discomfort with their presence. He always wore the standard Survey Corps uniform with a serious, focused demeanor befitting his rank.
Flagon prioritized formal standards, regulations, structure, discipline, and conventional methods. This led to clashes with Levi over his unconventional blade grip and vertical maneuvering techniques. Flagon's inherent caution bred skepticism toward unorthodox approaches. Yet he remained committed to his soldiers' safety even when distrusting them personally, consistently stressing formation discipline and safety protocols during expeditions with the former Underground residents.
After their assignment, Flagon escorted the trio to their quarters, insinuating they might lack hygiene due to their origins, provoking a near-confrontation with Levi that Furlan defused. In subsequent training, Flagon criticized Levi's blade technique, sparking another tense exchange where Levi asserted his methods' superiority in combat.
Flagon witnessed the trio's capabilities firsthand on their first expedition. When an Abnormal Titan threatened the supply cart, Levi, Furlan, and Isabel coordinated effectively to eliminate it. While visibly impressed by their skill, especially Levi's unconventional maneuvering, Flagon maintained reservations about their discipline and independent actions, continuing to emphasize order-following and formation maintenance.
During a rain-hampered expedition where signal flares failed, Flagon ordered his squad to hold formation. Amidst the storm and chaos, Titans ambushed them, killing multiple soldiers including Sairam. Flagon ignored Furlan's demand to retreat, determined to save his remaining squad members. When Furlan became trapped under his horse with malfunctioning gear, Flagon intervened to protect him. While covering Furlan's retreat, Flagon was seized by a Titan and killed, prioritizing his soldiers' survival despite his misgivings.
In Erwin Smith's vision during the Battle of Shiganshina, Flagon stood among the fallen comrades, representing the Survey Corps' collective sacrifice and their shared desire to know if their deaths held meaning for humanity's future.
