Lara Tyber, aka The War Hammer Titan, and her brother Willy Tyber: How did Lara Tyber die? And who killed her?
Lara Tyber, aka The War Hammer Titan, died at the hands of Eren Yeager in the Raid on Liberio Arc.
Lara Tyber died in Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 5, titled “Declaration of War.”
In Episode 5, we first see a speech of Willy Tyber where he addresses all the Marleyans that Eren Yeager is their enemy and Eldians must be eradicated from the world so that Titan powers get eliminated from the world.
We see Eren Yeager transforming himself and killing Willy Tyber by crushing him.
After that, Lara Tyber, who holds the powers of War Hammer Titan, transformed herself into a titan and attacked Eren Yeager.
In the fight, Eren defeated Lara Tyber and then consumed the powers, after which he possessed the War Hammer Titan’s powers.

General Calvi was the general of the Marley Military in season 4 of Attack on Titan when Eren Yeager transformed and Willy Tybur. At that time, Zofia, Udo and General Calvi were all crushed by Eren Yeager in his Titan form.
Sasha Braus: How did Sasha die in Attack on Titan Season 4?
Sasha Braus died at the hands of Gabi Braun in episode 7 of Attack on Titan Season 4.
After defeating War Hammer Titan and Marley Military Unit, the Survey Corps members were fleeing Liberio in the flying boat.
We saw Gabi sneaking into the Ship, and she shot Sasha with her gun.
After Sasha was shot, she bled to death, and all of her friends were in horror seeing her dying after that they captured Gabi and took her to Paradis Island.

Porco Galliard died in episode 19 of Attack on Titan Season 4, “Two Brothers.”
In Episode 19, Beast Titan, aka Zeke, had turned all the subjects of Ymir, who had drunk the wine mixed with Zeke’s spinal fluid.
Falco was also among the people who unknowingly had drunk the spinal fluid.
After being turned into a Titan, Falco was controlled by Zeke’s beast titan, attacking Reiner to free Eren so that Zeke and Eren could come in contact with each other to activate the powers of the Founding Titan.
But Reiner tried his best to keep Eren and Falco’s Titan on the ground.
At that exact time, Theo Magath and Pieck Fieger fired a bullet from the Turret Cannon on Zeke.

All of us, including Reiner, thought Zeke might be dead after the devastating impact, so Reiner accepts his fate by letting Falco attack him.
But Porco Galliard intervenes, saves Reiner, and gets Falco’s attention so that Falco doesn’t consume Reiner.
He comes out of his Titan form, calls out Falco and deliberately gets noticed by Falco’s Titan.
Hence, Falco charges at Galliard and eats him. And that is how Galliard dies, and Falco inherits the Jaw Titan’s powers.
Daz and Simuel: How did Daz and Samuel die in Attack on Titan Season 4?
Simuel and Daz, Armin and Connie’s oldest friends, died in Attack on Titan Season 4.
They died in Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 26 in an ongoing fight between the Survey Corps, Marley Warrior Unit vs The Yeagerists.
The goal of Survey Corps, Marley Warrior Unit, was to retrieve the Flying Boat and take Azumabito and the mechanics to the mainland where they would fix the boat, after which they will confront Eren Yeager.
Both Simuel and Daz were with the Yeagerists, and while fighting with Armin and Samuel, Daz shot Armin in the face.
Armin had the power of Collasol Titan, so the bullet didn’t affect him that much, and he managed to stay alive.

Connie had no other choice; they had to make the flying boat safe, as that was the only way to stop Eren.
So Connie had to shoot both Samuel and Daz, and that’s how they ended up dying.
Keith Shadis and Theo Magath: How Did Keith Shadis and Theo Magath die?
Both Theo Magath and Keith Shadis are also dead in Attack on Titan Season 4.
Theo Magath and Keith Shadis died by suicide bombing.
They had to secure the port so that Yeagerists could not get hold of Hange, Mikasa and the others sailing away in the Ship with the flying boat attached.
They chose this step as there was a Marley Crusier ship that Yeagerists captured earlier.
They wanted to destroy the Cruise Ship because more Yeagerists’ reinforcement would arrive soon.
If they use the Marley Cruiser Ship, they can quickly catch up with the Ship by which Mikasa, Reiner and others left also.
The Marley Cruiser was also capable of destroying other ships.
Theo decided not to take the risk; he decided they would go inside the Cruiser Ship and destroy it.
Keith Shadis and Theo Magath in Attack on Titan Season 4 (Image Credit: Funimation and MAPPA)Keith Shadis also joined him and earlier helped the group against the fight with Yeagerists.
Therefore both of them go inside the Marley Cruiser to destroy it.
Theo tells Keith to leave the Crusier as it is about to be destroyed.
Keith replies don’t matter to him as he is looking for a good time to die anyway.
Theo also says his last words before destroying the Ship.
After which, we see a massive explosion. Gabi, Hange, Pieck, and Jean look at the port far ahead, leaving Gabi and Pieck in tears.
Floch Forster: How did Floch Forster die in Attack on Titan Season 4?
Floch Forster also died in Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 26 when he was trying to destroy the Ship with the thunder spear so that Armin, Mikasa, Reiner and others couldn’t leave the port to stop Eren Yeager.
Floch Forster was one of the faithful followers of Eren Yeager, and he believed if Eren Yeager were stopped from the rumbling, then it would be an end to Paradis Island, and he didn’t want to take that risk.
So when he took charge of the Yeagerists as the new leader after overthrowing Yelena, he declared war against anyone who would go against Eren Yeager.

In Episode 26, amidst the fight between Survey Corp, Marley Military Unit and the Yeagerists, Floch wanted to destroy the Ship by which Armin and Hange were planning to take the flying boat on the mainland.
He fired the thunder spear towards the Ship, but that time he was shot but Gabi, and as a result, he missed the target and fell into the ocean.
But Floch Forster was still alive. He then re-appeared in Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 29, where he attacked the flying boat of Azumabito; he ultimately put 3 bullet holes in the fuel tank, which delayed the takeoff sequence.
Ultimately he was killed by Mikasa Ackerman; she used her manoeuvre gears to kill him.
Hange Zoe: How did Hange Zoe die?
Hange died in the Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 29, titled “The Final Chapters Special” (Part 3 Episode 1). The episode was titled ‘The Wings of Freedom.
In the episode, when the crew reach Odiha to fix the Azumabito’s flying boat to stop the rumbling, they discover that the people of the city have already left because Eren has already started the rumbling and destroyed a couple of Marley cities already.
Then Yelena revealed that Eren is likely to target the next Fort Salta, which is located in southern Marley and is a fortification and airship research base.
Yelena stated that when she discussed the euthanasia plan with Eren, she told Eren to attack Fort Salta; if the Marleyan airbase is destroyed, their economy will collapse, and they will not think of attacking Paradis again.
But Eren was never satisfied with destroying just the airbase. He wanted genocide.
Finally, when the Flying boat was fixed by Onyankopon and Azumabito’s engineers, they thought of starting the takeoff sequence an hour.
But then Floach appeared all of a sudden and attacked the boat from behind with his gun, which put holes in the fuel tank of the flying boat.
Apparently, Floach grabbed onto the ship and came all the way only to stop the crew from stopping Eren.
As the Engineers and Onyankopon started fixing the flying boat by wielding the holes in the fuel tank, it was already too late as Eren’s rumbling finally reached Odiha.
Everyone panicked, and nobody knew what needed to be done.
Reiner was about to use his Armored Titan power to buy out some time for everyone else to escape, but Hange intervened and said that she would not allow any of the titan shifters to die as they would be required to stop Eren, so she decided that she will be the one who would be going buy out some time by killing some of the Colossal Titan.
How did Hange Zoe die?After that, she said her last goodbyes to everyone, including Levi, and she then went to kill the Colossal Titans one by one.
As Colossal Titans radiate heat, she ultimately got clustered among all the titans.
She tried her best to break free by killing around 5 Colossal Wall Titans with the thunder spear; after that, she was caught in between the hot steam released by the Colossal Titans, because of which Hange’s body was scorched, and that is the reason why she died.
Hange didn’t want her comrades and the Titan shifters to die, so that is why she thought of keeping the Wall Titans engaged so that her comrades could utilise that time to escape, which created an opening.
Ymir Fritz: Did Ymir die in Attack on Titan Season 4?
No, Ymir didn’t die in Attack on Titan Season 4, but her death was showcased in Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 21 titled “From You, 2000 Years Ago.”
In this episode, we saw How Ymir got the founding Titans’ powers, how Karl Fritz had used her over the years, used her as an enslaved person then forced her to bear his children.
Ymir did all that out of love, and then one day, we saw some soldiers from Karl’s warrior unit trying to kill Karl Fritz, but Ymir tried to save Karl and ended up taking the spear on her chest and died.
After Ymir died, Karl Fritz forced Ymir’s children to cannibalize their own mother’s body to inherit the Founding Titan’s powers that Ymir possed.
He also instructed that Titan’s power was the only way to make Eldia Empire powerful, so he ordered all his children to reproduce more children and passed on Ymir’s powers to them, and that’s how the Titan’s powers were passed on throughout the 2000 years, and the nine titan shifters got created.
