| Goddamnit, just why did they do this? |

ramenshojo said: The Wild Hunt Arc is probably unadaptable due to the level of brutal rape and pedo scenes. But they could have easily ended this season after THE BIG FIGHT. So why completely butcher the story so horribly like that? It doesn't even make sense. Such disappointment. The whole conflict with Wild Hunt abusing their power was only about 2 chapters. After that |
| [quote=Teedog12]I agree that removing Wild Hunt will kill Run's entire purpose of being in the story, or at least most of it. I guess he'll be given a different role; maybe he'll truly be a bad guy in the anime-original ending. Ran is deader than Lubbock and from the preview he seems pretty dead |

LordPerucho said: Z4k said: LOL anime original ending. I totally didn't expect that. Yeah, lets hope its actually a good one, 99.9% of anime only ending suck. The reasons AGK is going for this are: There wont be a second season because the anime is too close to the manga. The stuff that happens later on in the manga are brutal, haxx, and somehow BS according to the fans. The good news is that that leaves for another anime studio to reboot the series, with A+ animation instead of Toei-tier animation. Well then you can't call them fans if they hate the stuff that happens later.... |
Those stars look like they're close to each other, but they're actually very far away, aren't they? It's like Kitamura-kun and I. The things you see aren't always real. How hard must I try in order to understand the unseen truth? ~ Aisaka Taiga |
| well i guess i really will have to pick up the manga if the anime's apparently becoming different and shit |
| And I mean that in the most sexually painful way possible. |

| I don't see Lubbock dying I mean why put that in the preview if he is just gonna die |
|
LordPerucho said: za21 said: She didn't let him get away in the manga. In the anime, she just lets Bolic run away and then acts surprised as she is just standing there. She was being useless. Lets be honest here. Esdeath was using him as bait from the start |
| good riddance. |
| Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait... Halp... D: Wasn't there supposed to be an epic battle of Suu vs Esdeath? Don't tell me they stray of the manga now. |
| Well, what can I say? I'm disappointed, I truly am. I wouldn't say I'm mad, it's just I really wish they tried to stay faithful until the end. I wouldn't say this anime turned to shit, but it's good, but the content that they're skipping out on the manga is really vital and brutal stuff. They're skipping Wild Hunt and a lot other events. I think it will still be good like FMA, but I'm really interested to see how it will handle the end especially since next episode's content happened in some of the most recent chapters. *sigh* Our only hope now is for FMA:B treatment, but even if that happened it wouldn't be a for years. Seriosuly though the whole point of the tension of what happens next episode is because of: Anyways, I could go on all day about what upsets me, but at this point I'm just going to enjoy the ride and stop comparing it to the manga for now on. They adapted my favorite fight well (Mine vs Seryu) so it wasn't a bad episode by any means. This series was doing such a good job up until now.... Damn shame. Hopefully it's still good until the end. |
| Well can't blame people for flipping out. When adaptations cut away and start going down their anime original route that's tough to watch. While there is never a guarantee you'll get that sequel in 2-3 years, it's a lot harder to get it once you do this. As to this episode, I had fun with it. Seryu vs Mine was really entertaining. Mine had to push herself to the limit in order to come out on top and even then it was a timely save by Tatsumi that was critical to leaving it alive. She didn't need help to win, just be alive afterwards. It was a stretch to have that guy by himself so Akame and Lubbock could take care of him. But I can buy him being terrified of Esdeath so wanting to get away or just being foolish to think that while those two factions are fighting each other he can escape just in case the worst should happen. Still requires Esdeath to leave the room, potentially to try to cut off any frontal assault, but not a huge deal to me. As a whole had some fun with the episode and will have to see where they go with this to wrap it up. |
| Also I am annoyed about no najenda backstory |
|
| Very nice episode. I was actually rooting for Seryu this time, i don't like Mine at all. I can't believe she's fallen for Tatsumi as well, so that leaves who... Najenda and Akame that aren't interested? *Sigh... The fights were good, though i'm kinda sick of everyone telling Tatsumi he's weak, and him agreeing with this. The guy destroyed a building to kill a single person, that was very cool. I was kinda surprised how tough of an opponent Seryu was, and even more so when that building got cut in half by Mine. Very powerful Imperial Arm. Felt sad for Justice-san at the end... and poor Coro. I can't even hate the enemy, what an anime. Wave protecting Kurome was pretty cute. I'm hoping whatever happened between Kurome & Wave vs Susanoo & Leone gets resolved next week, they kinda skipped the whole thing. Esdeath seems to have failed this time, i'm think that's a first. 5/5. I'm scared for Lubbock... |

| Mine is total badass there but raised the tallest death flag.. |
 |
| Uh... well... ok... I just have to say that the battle ost at the middle of the episode (around the 11 minute mark) was great. |
Sam1198777 said: I have no clue why everyone starts throwing a bitch fit over the change to anime original Guys, first of all, the "10 chapter" skip is kind of reasonable imo. These 10 chapters basically covered the Wild Hunt and battle (albeit, good battle) between NR and Esdeath. The Wild Hunt is really really useless, so its a plus they skipped all of that. No character development occurs for NR, and they're the protagonists so theres no harm there. Plus, we obviously will get even better fights now. Between all of the factions. And some resolution too. The manga is obviously better but complaining wont get us anywhere, at least let the product end and then criticise it. Statements like "anime-original is shit 99.9% and hence i'm dropping it" are really pointless. Drop it without telling, but if you give a fuck about your own time, you better stick with an anime you bothered to watch 19 episodes of. Who knows, maybe its those 0.1% anime-original better endings. So excited to watch the next episode, looks like Lubbock will be in a fix (and maybe he wont end up like he did in the manga) (which is a good thing) :3 People overreact whenever an anime deviates from the manga, even in the cases where the anime original parts are on par or even better than the manga version. I am not saying that is will be better than the manga as I haven't read it and to be fair it probably is better than whatever anime ending that they have planned, but this episode was still pretty good, I don't know why people are raging already. |

I'm not as butthurt anymore because the stuff that they are axing or re-arranging are the chapters that made a lot of the manga readers hate the series so if they can give us something better then I'll be very happy Regardless, the best fight of the series was supposed to happen in the next episode and it showcases 2 specific characters that I love very much and it was the one scene that I REALLY wanted to see animated. So the fact that I'm not going to get that makes me very upset |
| lol so skipping 10 chapters of a monthly manga is ok? Think of how much of the development they just skipped. |
Z4k said: Depends on how they handle it.....Only time will telllol so skipping 10 chapters of a monthly manga is ok? Think of how much of the development they just skipped. |
| I guess it's time to read the manga. |
| shit my heart was racing during the last few seconds of mine's and seryu's fight at the rate they kill characters in this show I thought mine was done for so glad mine didn't die though cause she's one of the better characters imo |
| I'm really disappointed that we won't be able to see White Hunt wreck havoc. People say they wanted to leave it out because of the rape, but..... (I don't know if this is spoiler, but I'll put it in it anyways) So I wonder if White Fox was afraid to show them or they truly just wanted to make an anime original ending. I still will never got the notion that people dying and limbs getting chopped off is somehow not as bad as rape :/ |
| Wow, so many manga readers here... Anyway, glad that fake-justice girl is gone. God, she's the most annoying character in the whole show... not even HanaKana's voice could redeem her. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
themorry said: Just a question, I have not read the manga yet but if this will be an orginal ending how much will it be diffrent? Which chars died in the manga? Im to lazy to go through all the manga right now. You know as much as we do. No one knows how White Fox will end this. And I'm not spoiling that. Go look at the wikia or read the manga if you want to find out who dies. |
| Crazy psycho's death was as satisfying as in the manga. I don't mind that they're going for an anime original ending. I actually expected it considering the manga is still ongoing. What was a bit of an anti-climax is how rushed they made Borick's death feel. I wonder how they will end it now. Interesting times. |

| I went and marathoned all the manga after chapter 38 after all my manga friends said that I should to see the "canon path" and now I agree with them. The events of the cathedral are too big to be skipped. Also that 10 chapter arc with Wild Hunt is also quite important now that I read it. The adaptation was so good thus far..I just don't understand their decision really. In 6 episodes they could of easily finished cathedral and maybe even Wild Hunt..then leave an open end for future season once the manga got more chapters. |
| Mine was pretty cool in this episode! And I'm glad that Seiryu is dead now, I really hated her for killing Sheele. |

| Than excellent episode, the fights were very good, Tatsumi did not strive much, but Mine was incredible against the 'Justice', was one of the fights I more was expecting, and quite liked the adaptation Mine was really cute at the end of the episode, for me is the best girl in the story, finally the feelings begin to appear I expect the action to continue and the final part of the anime be very good .. |
  |
| Sooooo.. No wild hunt? Or yes Wild Hunt... Wonder how they're gonna work this out. Esdeath is gonna go rage soon I think. 5 more episodes, and heck Im gonna enjoy them all. |

| The only thing changed was how Borick died. Unfortunately that change got rid off the best fight in the series |

|
| I would lmao, If they make Esdeath and Tatsumi a couple in the anime original ending. XD Or maybe they will make the NR kill Esdeath, with Tatsumi giving her the final blow. Some generic stuff like that. At least manga readers wont be able to spoil anything anymore. You anime only watcher should be happy. :) |
