In a plot twist no one could have seen coming, Eren Yeager – a member of the Survey Corps and the main protagonist of Attack on Titan – is now popping up on search trends worldwide. The reason? For his major resemblance to BTS member Jungkook in their group teaser for their upcoming English single, ‘Butter’.

Although to be fair, Eren Yeager came before Jungkook’s ‘Butter’ styling, so it should be Jungkook’s resemblance to the anime character that’s gaining traction? Either way, ARMYs are living for his new look! Like the trendsetters that BTS are, in no time, both Jungkook and Eren have taken over Twitter trends.
