When I finished watching it I thought it was great.
Two days later after processing it a bit I couldn't get over how bad it was.
The anime was literally so un-balanced.
Esdeath alone could take on the whole world if she wanted to because she can freeze anything she wants, including time, and never run out of stamina or energy. No army could defeat her making her RIDICULOUSLY overpowered.
Akame could probably get taken down if she was facing about 200 trained soldiers.
Yet in the end Akame manages to defeat Esdeath even though all Esdeath had to do was freeze her. When Esdeath froze time against Akame, Akame used the lamest plot armor I've ever seen in my life; 'afterimage'.
Not to mention how Game of Thrones-ish the show tried to be. They killed off every main character for no reason other than shock value. The blonde chick didn't need to die but they did it anyways. That guy (main character, forgot his name) was basically the main character of the show but they tossed him aside and killed him for more un-necessary shock value. Every death was pure shock value (not counting the gray dude, his death was necessary to progress with the plot)
I could go on but I am not going to. |

Plus the creator has no clue on how to make a proper villain
I don't think killing one person during a tragic event automatically turns you into some spec op assassin with no remorse
All the villains were just 'i love to kill people!', they had no proper back stories and the ones that did had weak ones
Esdeath loves torturing and murdering because her father said the strong prevail and the weak don't? BS
Mine grew up poor and hungry, instant serial killer? I think not
Purple haired chick killed a man in self defense, never thinks twice about killing people ever again? Also a load of crap |

"Esdeath alone could take on the whole world if she wanted to because she can freeze anything she wants, including time, and never run out of stamina or energy. No army could defeat her making her RIDICULOUSLY overpowered." Esdeath didn't care as much for power when she met Tatsumi, and neither did she plan on taking over the world (unless she had Tatsumi on her side, which she deliberately tried to do all that time). That's exactly why she locked up Tatsumi, Akame, and herself into that 'ice dome,' otherwise she would have just teamed up on her with her whole OP army. Pride also takes account of her actions..
"When Esdeath froze time against Akame, Akame used the lamest plot armor I've ever seen in my life; 'afterimage'." Agreed. Afterimage my ass, what the hell was that? Time manipulation doesn't make sense anymore, lol.
"That guy (main character, forgot his name) was basically the main character of the show but they tossed him aside and killed him for more un-necessary shock value." Tatsumi. He actually isn't the main character, believe it or not. It's Akame (hence 'Akame' ga Kill). They made it seem like he was, which was pretty stupid since he wasn't.
All in all, I gave the show a 6/10.

Also -- did you guys see the awkward unfinished scene between episode 19-20 (I think it was). Basically, Esdeath and the Night Raid were fighting from beginning to end in episode 19, and when it continues into episode 20, all of that is voided as if it didn't happen. Something else was going on (don't remember, but it certainly wasn't a continuation of the previous fight).
big wtf moment

"it still made me sad :(" It was more of a forced-drama than Air (TV) was. They were trying too hard to make people cry. They didn't focus on any other emotions, and failed to incorporate the one emotion they tried to achieve.

I agree, the characters have are all absolutely just PLAIN. Like, there's hardly any detail with them. Sure, they may give some background knowledge or stories etc about them, but they just get cut off.
They could've also made more romance clips with mine and Tatsumi and let the some what "main character' Tatsumi still live instead of cut him off. |
