In fact, the manga later reveals that organism-based Teigu can continue to function for a short time despite its owner's demise.


But she herself believed that it would stop, therefore regardless of what the truth is, her actions didn't make any sense.

In a situation where one of your friend is about to be crushed. You don't really think about anything else besides saving her. You think she has the time to think fine and just rely on killing seryu to do the trick to save mine? and I'm also not sure why people are calling the guns in the arms bs and stuff. You do remember she had major modifications to her body in episode 5 because of a doctor. So, you shouldn't be soo surprised if she pulls something out of her ass.

Yea, that episode was pretty bad. I thought her scisccors could cut thorugh anything, but nope, that girl just easily blocks all her stabs. And then instead of killing her she just runs all the way back. It was so forced that I actually found it funny. At least the girl with the most annoying voice is gone now, so that's pretty positive.


Do you know the difference between stabbing and cutting? I'm pretty sure she was stabbing when seryu blocked it or parried it. Of course you have to use it like a scissor to cut through anything and also like what I said above. Do you really think she has the time to kill seryu and then run to save mine? I'm sure she booked it to save mine once she got grabbed so she probably didn't have the time to kill seryu.

I never said anything about the guns. And about her not having time to think, she is not a normal person. She is an elite assassin whose whole character revolves around being an airhead that becomes extremely focused in battle.

Considering it is such an early on death, it also becomes the most easily forgettable (which then reveals how ridiculous that whole flashback sequence was). The show's good, let's just hope this doesn't become a pattern.

The gun part was just me talking to myself but like even if shes a elite assassin. Her friend is very important so, she would just react fast to that. How does she know killing seryu will save mine?

Because when she rushes at Seryu, the exact thing she says is: "Imperial Arms are tools. It will stop once its user is killed.". She believes that killing her was the solution. Why she didn't act on it makes no sense.

You forget something. Schele disarmed SEryuu twice. First of her arms and then of her guns. On one hand she has what she belives to be a completely harmless and armless girl who is psycho. On the other, there is a beast that could crush Mine within the next few moments. What's safer? Immediately cut off the arm and release mine. Or take a few more seconds to finish Seryuu off and risk Mine actually getting crushed. Remember that In Schele's mind Seryuu was already completely disarmed. No one would have imagined the bitch would put a gun in her mouth. She spoke normally until then with tongue and everything. She underestimated Seryuu's modifications but that's understandable really.

All I got from this episode was that Seryu is a badass and Esdese is coming home to hopefully show us why in gods name she's loved by the fanbase

Didn't really feel anything from Sheele... It's not her fault but the writing.. You showed her life story in the previous episode.. This is more shock factor level

3/5

Seryu made the episode but there were some bs in there

If it is faster to run all the way back out of the park and cut the dog's arm instead of just cutting the head off the helpless girl right next in front of you, I won't argue anymore.

I'm glad that episode started lightly (compared to what's to come after...)... princess carrying Tatsumi... (n˘v˘•)¬
There was no censoring at all indeed... Tatsumi cutting them into half like nothing. xD It must be the training from his Aniki (Bulat).

Was good seeing my waifu at the end though

My biased feelings aside this episode was fucking amazing
5/5


I was pretty much having goosebumps for whole time...even though I knew what was going to happen in the end... tears were definitely rolling from my eyes...for some reason... so beautiful... There's still more things to come for Tatsumi though!


I was thinking about Sheele saving Mine in the first watch...but this helped me remind about the sequence of events.
(That Koro's roar.... (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ)


Laviose said:
Hmm.. Many people seem to be confused about Sheele's actions. From the anime's perspective, she should have killed Seryu before the berserk Koro crushes Mine to death. However this case is not true for the manga since there's little time interval between the activation of secret skill (after Seryu's hands were cut off) and Sheele's hearing being impaired by the echoing scream of Koro.

In fact, the manga later reveals that organism-based Teigu can continue to function for a short time despite its owner's demise. *No major spoilers allowed*
If Sheele chose to kill Seryu instead of rushing to rescue Mine, Mine would have been crushed to death by Koro despite getting its owner killed.
Hope this clears up some confusion :)

akame= aka me = red eye

Yeah, I think the title can also mean Red-Eyed Killer and up to the current point in the manga, we don't even know whether it refers to Akame or another upcoming red-eyed person, maybe Tatsumi at some point later due to a certain Teigu... though Akame is the more likely one atm.

Wrong, kanji is for her name not for Red and Eye.
アカメ - Akame
赤 - red
目- eye

Has Sheele ever encountered an imperial arms of that type before? Or is this based off of what she was told/read? I would think the safe bet would be to not waste any extra time and just save Mine directly rather than acting on a concept that she has no direct experience with.


Given her reaction of shock when he regenerated, pretty sure she only knew the theory. Also add to that the general rarity of Teigu encounters. The battles with teigu users as Najenda said this episode, will only increase in frequency now.

probably, schere thought justice-chan is done for, mutilated even the gun auto-mail, so she rushed to koro-chan to save mein thinking that if she killed justice-chan right there, there are chance koro-chan still active for a few second, and its more than enough to REKT mein to death (plsss make it happen) so she chosed to go save mein first and kill justice afterwards. but BAM, who would've expect she has gun inside her mouth? crazy bastard justice-chan thats why you are my fav <3

Kill Seryuu, obviously.

They said in the episode that to their knowledge, killing the user would stop the Imperial Arms. Therefore, anyone who isn't completely stupid would have killed the user, thus disabling the Imperial Arms at the same time.
What you're arguing is that she should have wasted her time to shut down the Imperial Arms by itself, even though the Imperial Arms was further away and not defenseless

Guys, was I the only one that felt like Sheele death was forced? Couldn't she have killed Seryuu to prevent Seryuu's Teigu, Koro to hurt Mine? Cause if I remember correctly they said that if they killed the owner of Koro, then Koro would would stop. But maybe I'm wrong about this and I over looked something. What do you guys think?

yes, if you kill Imperial arm/Teigu user it stops but it was never said that it stops instantly. On top of that Koro was in berserk mode which adds another question mark whether it would stop or not. It would probably still function because you know, if someone goes berserk they give zero fucks. So the safest bet to save Mine was the old fashioned way and thats what Sheele did. Also Seryuu seemed to be harmless at that point. No arms, no guns so Sheele could finish her off later after saving Mine. Just my two cents...

It really doesn't matter at this point. You could argue Sheele could have just killed Seryuu with a quick slice to the head then rush to save Mine all in the same amount of time but the author chose not to.

It's easy as viewers to sit back and do your typical arm chairing that people just love to do, yet fail to realize that if they were in that situation they probably would have made the same mistake. People react based on impulse which is what Sheele did. At that point, Mine was the only thing on her mind and the whole "kill the user to stop the raging dog" never occurred to her anymore.

If you can sit here and say you've never acted on impulse that resulted in a mistake ( doesn't matter how big or small ) then you need to get out more and stop watching cartoons.

People are bitching about censorship but there ain't much difference with the manga. There's blood and chopped limbs flying around in both. The only thing I could say is missing is the visible insides of the limbs, and a few guts and bones. Nothing to flip a tit over, really.
And if you couldn't tell, it probably means it's hardly noticeable and thus not worthy of mention. White Fox doing their job, basically.
