    Akame ga Kiru - Unexpected end

    Right away, it is lost that it is not an anime for children, with a heavy theme about necessary murders and political idealization, weapons with magical powers appear but very well contextualized without losing their meaning. Throughout the anime we follow the growth of the main character and his companions, strong motives, terrifying scenes of the human capacity to do evil, and everything is completed in an unusual end. Whatever you think you know or guess about the ending, forget it and wait.

    Love it, or hate it, this is a must watch.

    A lot of people absolutely love this anime, a lot of people hate it to its core. The question is, is it good or bad, which one is it.

    First of all, lets talk about the aspects everyone agrees upon. This anime has- 10/10 music, 10/10 animation, 9/10 fighting seq. Great right?? So why so many people hate it?

    This anime has a unique story development. It only tells bare minimum. People often criticize the lack of back-stories of the main characters, lack of world-building materials. However, all anime should not follow the same path. This anime tells a story about the contribution of a certain organizations part in a rebellion. The organization members never had much empathy for the people or independence, or even justice. So the back-stories about the characters, the anime-style-epic-B&W-flashback scene, the relation / interaction between some characters was somewhat avoided and I think it is for the good.

    Some people hate it for the deaths. I think it certainly is a fresh and bold step, far from the no-death cliche. Also it somewhat moves away from manga ending. Some people don't like anime-original endings.

    This anime ventures to a place where no anime had the courage to go before. Like it, or hate it, this is a must watch for all anime fans.

    Fascinating, A must wach adventure.

    Feeling bored of so many bad movies i should watch some adventure packed action series. And i found Akame Ga Kill. Reading synopsis and waching the trailers i was nearly going to skip it but it was day off and i was pretty bored. So i decided to give it a try, and heck i was surprised. It was full of wonderful actions, adventure and also romance. I was awe strucked in a total positive way. People shouldn't miss that master piece and for action adventure fans it'll be a sin not to give it a try. This story starts with a teen boy named tatsumi and as his adventure proceeds forward he met a group of weirdos (assassins). A bunch of girls eventually fall for his cuteness. OMG! I'm not gonna give spoiler rather I'll suggest everyone to make time watch the full series in one breath. I swear it's worth it.

    One of the best animes I've seen.

    A perfectly well told story. Each episode is shocking, with spectacular battles, stories with which everyone connects. All the characters are unique, interesting and with well-defined personalities.

    A wee bit shallow in its writing but a unique anime that is almost a must-see.

    This anime tells the story of a young man that comes to the capital to make money and save his village, but instead joins a group of rebels that want to overthrow the government because it is too much corrupted. The story goes around this group of people, their training and their missions, and it doesn't deeply describes the society, nor the setting, which are interesting. You just need to know that the society is corrupted and the rich take everything they want from the poor. It does a great job visually, and the music is also well suited, and it is perfect for those who seek an anime with adventure, fights, a tiny bit or romance and a slightly dark athmosphere. The characters aren't deep but they are all different, and their backstory is explained, making it easier to become affectionate to them. As I mentioned, the atmosphere is dark, but it has some funny moments (perhaps too many). One of the things I liked the most was the fact that it isn't obvious whether a main character will die or survive, which makes the story less obvious. On the other hand, the sadness caused from the death of a main character is soon replaced by a sense of anger, because too many of them die, and you end up wondering whether it was necessary for the plot or just a cheap way to make you feel bad for the others. Nevertheless, when I think about it I still have sad/bitter feelings for some events that happened to some characters, and these after-feelings aren't often found in an anime.

    Some things could have been done much better, like spending more time in developing some characters or making sure to describe the setting more deeply, and it I didn't like the fact that when someone dies, in the next episode they're almost forgotten and only mentioned casually when needed for the story. In the end the only problem with this anime is that it is a bit shallow, and it could have been really great if only it was spent some more time in the writing.

    I recommend watching it because it does its job of carrying you away in a different world and making you live, for a little while, the lives of these people, in a world far away and far easier than ours. For this I give it an 8/10, that could have easily been a 9 or even 10 for the reasons just mentioned.
