The main problem with Akame ga Kill! was the very fact that the creators of the anime were pushed to create (and end) something that wasn't finished. This is a main problem with many popular anime and Akame ga Kill!, as fun as it was to watch, couldn't avoid the same pitfalls that follow. Ignoring a large section of the manga, the anime doesn't successfully give the characters the depth they deserved. Although fun, the anime largely should have waited for the manga or at least find a good stopping point for a first season. This error caused the anime to, overall, lack character depth ... and emotion that could have been powerful and lasting.

I desire to keep this short and sweet due to the fact I do not wish to dwell on what I consider to be a dreadful anime. I found there to be an inability to connect or feel with any of the characters, it's as though they stitched common story moments together without any real flow. It felt as though they were copying and pasting what should be good scenes into the anime, but without any real purpose or meaning. Also, the voice of Yuki was horrible to listen too in the English. I was able to fight my way through four episodes before I ... almost shot myself. If anybody who likes this show is offended, I do sincerely apologize for these words and do desire to find out why it is so popular. If you are able to say, "After ___ episode, you'll definitely get into it" then I will continue watching to see if I can catch the glimmer of greatness that this anime has surrounding it; otherwise, I found it a waste of my time.
