| Damn, Seryuu scared me. Now I wanna see justice. Do it and I will love you forever, Mine. |
| The classic shounen "I'll leave my enemy injured and turn my back" move. |
| “Suppose, gentlemen, that man is not stupid.” |
Kaoknight said: Ahhel said: Wasn't Sheele teigu supposed to cut through fucking everything? How did Seryu block it with her guns? I guess "cutting anything" only works when opening and closing the scissors and not when used as oversized sword. But the bigger plot hole is that schele had the chance to kill seryu but kept messing around even though she's a "natural killer"... That too, Sheele call to go to Mine aid instead of killing Seryu at spot (pretty sure she could've blocked the shoot from the mouth if she was looking at her) was really questionable imo |
| loved the episode but damn R.I.P Sheele and as for Suryu i hope you Die |
Darklight0303 said: retepeters said: lol i din't expect this ffs a gun in her mouth? idk if that is impossible, but i'm sure it's pretty stupid Did you forget Ogre mentioned some crazy doctor and experiements that would give her a trump card. She's no longer really all human. She's more cyborg. in fact i didn't remember that, but still... how would she fire it, or pull it out? idk man it just feels way too weird |
 |
| Well god damn. Best episode in this series so far but RIP Sheele. We hardly knew ya. What a great sequence of events, action and feels. Now, shots have officially been fired. Even I couldn't predict that Seryu would be that insane. And now it looks like the shit storm is about to descend upon the capital. F'n game time baby. |

NeutralSide said: Well I enjoy the Manga for what it is.Its fun to read and I really liked how AGK makes fun of Tropes in general,I think its intended. I personally Love it because of the Action in it and how Fearless the author is for Killing off Characters or Injuring them severely,He just doesn't give a F***. Anyway You aren't so supposed to feel anything with Sheele,It really didn't matter. I think Akame ga kiru isn't right for you and you Should stop watching if you're bent on Character development in here.There's almost no Character development for the Characters Except for Tatsumi its mostly focused on him. Well I enjoy the Manga for what it is.Its fun to read and I really liked how AGK makes fun of Tropes in general,I think its intended. Gore anime,Probably But I watch and Read it mainly because I want to see the Story unfold and What would be the fate of Night raid in the future? I want to see it for myself. Tatsumi=Esdeath.F***ing die Mein. I told someone that was bashing the manga a similar thing once and they said that they prefer stories where they know the main characters are safe winners no matters what and the only people to die are the nameless losers like in AoT and say that killing off main characters is force and used only in a cheap attempt to substitute actual good story telling. |
| Sheele's secret move was cool as shit. Did not expect this at all :/ |

I mean there is a LOT of mediocre and generic characters etc.. Never knew it was a Shounen). |
"Hi!" |
Baddie007 said: Aw man Seryu is really bad ass, looks like night raid for once just found their match, RIP to Sheele. So will, somebody else from Night Raid gonna be next? You're asking for spoilers.. Which I have no intention of giving out. |

-Resident- said: Actually I'm a manga reader, and these are basic demands having strong characterization in our main cast, whom we're supposed to care about. And it is clear to me that Schere is a plot device and not a character, yet the show treats her as a fleshed out character we're supposed to cry for along with our cast. See my problem here?T3hSource said: Who's Scheele and why the heck should I care about her dramatic death when she could've easily killed Seiryu instead of cutting her arms again wasn't she supposed to be only good at killing without remorse? She could've killed her, Seryuu could've easily shot her with the gun from her mouth earlier, as well. But she didn't. Seryuu simply put all her hopes for victory in the trump card of her teigu. When Seryuu forced Koro to go into Overdrive, it simply grabbed Schere's attention, because it posed a large threat for Mein. And now we get into interpretational grounds, even as I watched that scene it seems like an easy missed opportunity to kill her. Now if we had time with Schere and see her close relationship with Mine, her actions and death would've carried more weight. Oh and for the mixed setting: why isn't everyone using guns to begin with? It's pretty jarring if you pay attention to the background. There are small houses, paved streets, swords, carts, guards, fortified city, something one associates with a medieval setting. A magic gun is an easy exception, because it's magic, a fantasy element. But it's not really relevant, world building isn't exactly a concern for these series, it's more focused on the rule of cool. |

Vepenar said: please tell me she dies quite violently, because that imperial guard seryui or w.e her name is does not seem redeemable @ all. Yes Kaoknight said: Instead we get asspull Power of Love time stopping bullshit. I just find it weird that people are expecting a battle shounen to be super deep when people are spilling gallons of blood when a limb is cut off and characters are making their straight man jokes. |

| With all the decapitation in their fights, It kinda reminds me of "Fist of the north star". Anyone? |

| It was a good episode. Nice OSTs. |
 |
| sigh... predicted sheele's death last episode. even worse it is a death just to show how strong imperial arms are. shot by a gun in her mouth.... so fucking dumb, especially since sheele turned her back instead of finishing psycho girl off... such a badly handled death. it is sad that she died but the whole thing was handled so badly... and just to rub that stupid death in it is probably gonna take ages before seryu actually dies. anyway. as always fight scenes are done really well, ost was great |

| those who watched it censored on there first viewing are losers |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| Sheele ;-; She won major badass point with those scissors. Then dies. Sob. Anyway amazing battle scene. Too bad there wont be anymore scissor action. Which means Akame better live up to her expectations of serving epic battles. |
~my list
| .... Wow at the overexaggerated stillframe expressions. Even more than the previous ones. The female characters seem like walking ideas and tropes. I like Leone, though... even if her transformation is rather disappointing. She could've become a badass, cool feral beast but, nooo, what about sex?? Boobs???? She needs to be sexy!!! Meh. The OST is nice, I really liked it |
| Finally some actual killing happens. Poor Sheele! |
 |
| Pretty sad episode but very entertaining. I hate that dog. And I had some feels for this one. The music playing during her final words was beautiful. |

I've seen you argue a lot of points that usually are against popular opinion but I respect how you do it without being a troll and display some valid points. In fact, your argument has opened my eyes to the fact that Schere was not a deep or important character at all. Though, I can see why people liked her since liking someone is just based on what someone personally finds appealing so that can't really be argued or changed, however arguing that Schere is not a deep fleshed out character is in fact very true and I respect how reasonable your being unlike some other people in this forum. Thanks and have a nice day. |

I agree, but the fact of the matter is that he's blatantly trolling and trying to bait....Like I didn't notice until now but as Darklight pointed out in one of the earlier pages, all this guy does is go to popular threads and do this exact same thing In fact, he and a lot more people like that did this exact same thing in Episode 1's thread like I stated And to answer your question, this series is Shounen Forgetfulness said: This@June93 Put that in spoilers please I just started the series last night and I'm on that episode now too.... |

| so the first loss for the team poor sheele after reading some comments i guess a few pags had the "uncensored" version cuz the version i saw was uncersored |
SirFashion said: For the people whining about the lack of seriousness, deepness, characters and story telling of the series... just remember this is a shounen, its not seinen and it will never be. A series being a shounen doesn't mean it doesn't have those attributes. Look at Death Note, FMA, Code Geass, etc. Shounen is just a demographic. Its like saying that all american cartoons for kids have no depth. Avatar the Last Airbender is a testament to why saying that is stupid. AgK does have those things. Its just not amazingly deep. It could definitely be done better but AgK does those things decently and is straightforward in its ideas. |
T3hSource said: At least she becomes somewhat relevant in the third movieSame thing here more or less. |
|
| Esdese next episode?!?!?! |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| I cared about Sheele's death, more so through Mine's empathetic viewpoint though. Good episode. |
| Everytime I come into an episode discussion for akame ga kill it is always a mini shitstorm. To be honest, I'm more hyped for episodic discussions about the show than actually watching the show. |
 |
| Ohhh nooo my favorite character got killed off... a bit too soon. :( Oh well. |
| SHEELEE!!!!! WHAT THE ACTUAL DUCK! Not sure what "White lights" are you referring to, watched it on animefreak uncensored. But damn, this episode. Those that have not read the manga or known about this were pretty surprised right? I know I was, maybe I`m just a newb but still. Damn...that`s all I can say. I need to mentally prepare because now I know that more are going to die and I just...I cant, man. Why did I choose to watch this.?! |

T3hSource said: Now onto my thoughts about this episode: It was shit. Ok not really, but it could have been absolutely shit. And yeah... No sorry but I couldn't really give two shits about Sheele <_< We're back to cartoon villain of the week, but this time it's a cute girl with cute puppy thing that turns evil when it gets mad. Well, AT LEAST she put up a fight and didn't die like a useless sack of potatoes. And holy shit that OST was just amazing. The action was really impressive, didn't need the pointless flashbacks and slow Sheele death, it should have just been instant and be done with it. It really ruined the mood (you probably see me as a heartless bastard now). On the story and characters side nothing really changed much, if not they got worse. Shitty characters, meh story so far and the only things that have been worth watching for me so far are the action and the jokes (that ones that I found funny anyway). Normally I'd give this episode a 2/5, but I enjoyed the action a lot so 3/5. Heh my post is more on the negative I think. So now to those who are enjoying this show way more than I am + for manga readers, my response to the inevitable "why do you keep watching if you don't like it?" (will spoiler it for those that don't care) |

| I was hoping that Tatsumi would save the day. He would burst in and be all mad like Luffy when someone hurts his crewmates. T-T So this is what tragedy feels like T-T |
  |
| Ok, I did not expect that at all. Didn't like the bipolarity of Serya, in a moment she makes the kind of innocent cool girl and the other turns a psychopath. I mean, if she believes so strongly in the concept of justice, why she treat the "villains" as if she was a villain? Edit: RIP Sheele :'( |
