Jesus this show became so troll, I was really into it the first like 12-14 episodes and was really considering giving this show an 8 or even a 9 depending if the quality kept up, but then it steadily started going downhill, it's like the Game of Thrones of anime... Except not even Game of Thrones kills this many main characters, and GoT makes up for it by being much more intriguing... Welp, on to the last episode I guess, what a disappointment.


I know, right. The first few episodes even made me excited because it was refreshing to watch in my opinion. Aw man, how we wish :/
Well, let's see how this will end now.

LOL Tatsumi grew wings and flew to heaven. Tatsumi sacrificed his life for some civilians. He also lied to akame what a chump. I will not miss you Tatsumi, you should've just went with esdeath on a date or something, and lived happily ever after. Like how did you not know you were gonna die, Tatsumi?

Let's be honest. I hope they didn't think killing off the Tatsumi in a semi-heroic way would gain them any points for me, because it didn't.

Also that kid with the giant mecha was probably the biggest dumbass I have ever seen. How are you going to prove "your empire is the greatest" my bombing it to hell... you dumbass?

Of all the things I don't understand about this show, where was the emperor aiming his death ray at? Why was he destroying his own kingdom again? I get the manipulation thing, but I would have understood if he was aiming at the Revolutionary Army or the main characters and was missing, but he was outright blowing up his kingdom. I'm not sure why this was the moment that got me to vocally question the show, but...huh.

That's why it is Akame ga Kill, not Tatsumi ga Kill... even if it was never focused on her.
Akame ga Kill would mean Akame is the killer or Akame will kill (the relation between the title and the manga is better explained in the manga). I suppose Akame will be the only main character to survive...

honestly i could care less episode 23 made no sense to me i liked last episode was kinda hoping tatsumi would get up and be like stop fighting u too i never wanted this and blah blah blah all the bs he utters but why the hell do u make tatsumi golden and kill him right after the viewers of the show expected tatsumi to survive because he became golden am i right or am i wrong but he dies right after thats what i will never understand what was going through the creaters of this episode head when he killed tatsumi ad left akame and leone to deal with the others 2 misfits who were evil (esdeath and the minister) and eventually killing leone but saving akame thats just great dude what else could get better? call me a hypocrite because this was like teh ending of the anime for me because they killed all the main character and the main main character tatsumi because they kill the titular character who got no screen time once so ever but u wanna bring spotlight to her at the end of the anime? wow complete disaster indeed. just gonna forget about push anime to back of my head my review of anime is 7/10

Not as bad as people make it out to be at all, but there were certainly enough flaws.

Why oh why did they just let the Prime Minister keep influencing the Emperor like that? There were some moments when the Emperor was about to realize his mistake, but then got manipulated even more. Just kill the fucker! It would only take Tatsumi one hit to kill the bastard. Or Akame, but apparently she was busy killing 4 guards for half an episode...

I was also confused by the motivation behind Run's action of attacking Night Raid. What does stopping them even matter at this point if you want a revolution anyway? It's not like the capital itself wasn't spilling more blood during status quo.

Letting Tatsumi die was kinda ballsy. It might feel cheap at this point after having a character die every episode lately, but I still didn't see them doing that with the main character as well. It's not something you see happen often in anime. But that does bring me to the fact that they killed off almost all the characters at this point and more than often it just happened because it somehow had to happen, not because it fitted the story. They could have easily killed Najenda when she used her last power up on Susanoo, but for some reason they just pulled it out of their ass that she was somehow 'saved' by him by not taking all her power? Okay... but Mine had to die because? It's not like Najenda's role in the story is any more important at this point.

I'm not salty because my favorite characters died or anything, it's just that it seems completely random to me who lives and who dies in certain situations. Like the production team first played a round of 'who dies' roulette and then started making the anime original route. Now all we have left is Akame vs Esdeath, but it feels like there's not a lot at stake anymore at this point. It's more like they are doing this as an aftermath kinda thing. We'll see.

If I had to come up with a reason, it might either be a clash of values (not unlike Akame and Kurome), or as a way to prevent from the guards blood from being spilled. But perhaps more likely, they just wanted to show him fight a bit.

For a "teacher" he sure moves well though - especially if you consider the fact that he managed dodged some of Esdeath's strikes during the formation of Jaegers.

While I agree that Nagenda's survival felt like a rare case of plot armour in this show, I do see her experience as a leader more valuable after than Mine's skillset after the revolution. Besides, Mine got a free pass when she got saved not long before this episode, and had Budou died without taking anyone out, he would've been like the most disappointingly hyped character of the show (I am already disappointed that he got taken out like he did).

How they want me to take this plot seriously if after all the killing, after Akame killed her own sister, they show me a funny goofy Akame eating oversized food? [Moodkiller]

Why is the Emperor kid destroying his own empire?

Tatsumi got a typical Shounen MC power up. Oh, the Power of Friendship. Incursio is golden and has wings.

Does Tatsumi has some fang thing across his stomach, right?

Oh yeah, he did. Well, at least he died as a hero. The MC shield always wears off at the end of the show.

Flashy battle, not much else.
I still think Wave is a way better character.

I disliked Tatsumi as a MC but this sure also feels like the staff just wanted to kill every character they can. Personally, they can kill everyone but if their deaths have no meaning I'm not gonna feel a thing.

Couldn't agree with you more ...there was a lot of potential here, and they did this? I disliked Tatsumi less than most male MC's in this kind of anime, which doesn't help... but I don't think I've ever seen such an uncool death for a main character (or just about any character) in an anime before.

He won - fight was over, and he has to sacrifice himself after thousands have already died during the fight, to save a group of like 20 people? It's great that he's such a hero, and stuff, but come on... I guess he wouldn't be much of a hero if he died BEFORE finishing the fight.

I am utterly disappointed. The episode was good, but it leaves a sour taste in my mouth, like a few of the previous episodes.

Really loved the show up until this episode. The corny "villain mode" and speeches of the prime minister and emperor were a huge turnoff, but nothing compared to the dissapointment to when they revealed the giant transformer as the emperors relic.

I dont really mind Tatsumi dying, but the way they did it felt underwhelming.

I could have dealt with his death, but you're right, the way they did it was simply not cool. Underwhelming doesn't quite touch it ... it was just asinine, it was nonsensical... I dunno, it really rubs me the wrong way.

You're also right about the stupid Giant transformer and generic villain speech thing ... this is a unique anime with a lot of unique aspects... it almost seems like they just stopped trying once they realized it was near the end and everyone dies, and couldn't figure out why they should care any longer either.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this... but it's been a good ride, with a crappy ending. Damn.

That. Was. DEPRESSING.

First of all, why couldn't the emperor just listen to the rebels? I get that the minister was controlling him and everything, but this time he had a choice!

And because of all that, Tatsumi died. RIP.

Seriously though, that was a sad but good episode...

I would give this ep a 5/5 cus Tatsumi dies lol fucking hate his character so much.
The emperor's moment of snapping as well as Run and Wave showing respect for Night Raid felt so forced.
Tatsumi's final form was pretty cool looking I guess. I think it really says something about the pacing of this show when the MC's death felt emotionless and very dry (unless he isn't actually dead?).
