The Night Raid in the Akame ga Kill! series is one of the undercover divisions of the Revolutionary Army. They aim to change the Capital and get rid of corrupt officials. Their main form of action is assassination, which is normally done at night, thus their name―the Night Raid. Each member of the group owns an Imperial Arm, which they use for assassinating their targets.
