Someone please tell me the manga isn't this bad? This reminds me of SnK and how everyone just dies. Are they trying to troll us or what?

So Tatsumi activated his Shining Finger, he's the new King of Hearts.. I actually heard the dialogue as the episode went on LOL

"This hand of mine glows with an awesome power! Its burning grip tells me to defeat you! Take this! My love, my anger, and all of my sorrow! Shining Finger!"

Akame eyes in the review reminded me of Tokyo ghoul, i guess it is the trump card, but does she really have a trump card in the manga or it was just a bluff?

Just when I thought the episode would end with no one dying. Guess I should've known with how there's been deaths every episodes for the past several episodes.

There was none revealed in the manga so far, although the thing with IAs having trump card probably applies.

It's not my fault it's full of shiteaters, just look at this episode rating.
yeah I just avoid looking at ratings after black bullet was praised by many, I just don't get this community.

Because it had promising start. Shows that have weak start and get vastly better later are ignored here and have ridiculously low rating (supposedly, I never check it).

Well a one hit one kill weapon is already powerful enough, but maybe the cost of his trump card is his life.

Well fuck the esdeath-tatsumi end is over lol.

The episode showed tatsumi resolve and did express it well. His death was inevittable after taking those destructful shots from the emperor. It weakened him heaps. Wave helped as well which was also nice.

Leone and run will have more scenes next ep.

Last ep is akame v esdeath. Hopefully akame spares her instead of killinkg her with her trump card. She hasnt done wrong tbh. But since anime title is 'killing akame' i believe in the end shes will be a survivor. 1 ep left.

It was an ok episode. The whole thing where they kill a member of the main cast each episode is pretty tedious. And for people defending the anime, i don't understand how you can even portray this is as a good show/adaptation. Compared to others that came out this year it's mediocre at best. The animation for this episode was solid, the script and content was poor, which is a shame. It reminded me of the Soul Eater finale with the 'fist of courage' bullshit. In other words it's bad writing, plain and simple. Either way we'll see how well they execute the final fight next week. They usually animate Akame's sword fights well so it should at least be entertaining.


I agree. It's basically become like Aldnoah Zero now for me. Fun to watch, but horrible on paper.

Well then...

I felt like this episode was a mix of Super Sonic, Superman and Dragon Ball. As ridiculous as it was, it was a bit sad to actually see Tatsumi die.

I'm really glad I finally picked up the manga. It's at least a bit better than the anime for sure.

Welp, let's see how the last episode is.

What an episode. This episode actually stayed on track with the actual plot of the entire series. Great, but don't you think that thing, whatever the King's imperial arms was a bit too overpowered? That thing seemed to blow up buildings, but wasn't able to kill Tatsumi or Wave with a direct hit...

people hating on how bad this is...

I havent read the manga, I am planning to cus it sound different...

but god I am loving how this is going (I love bad endings)

to lose the (kind of?) main character at the second to last episode is just mind blowing, I think I have seen it before and it just gets me you know... just love that kind of plot

I can understand why manga readers might not like this original ending. I still think that, source material aside, the anime is pretty good on its own. It surely has its flaws (it feels somewhat rushed, deaths don't have enough impact, potentially interesting characters don't get enough development/screen time) but it's an entertaining show nonetheless.

The setting and the general plot line are very interesting, so I'll definitely continue reading the manga (only up to chapter 4 so far), even though I normally don't read any manga at all.

IMO, it's better to have an original ending that's not up to par with the source material than to have no real ending at all (and I don't see how an open ending could've worked in this case) if there are no plans to finish the adaptation with a second (or even third) season. This way, the anime-only people still get some closure while everyone else can turn to the source material (in this case the manga) for the real ending.

Despite its shortcomings, this was a decent episode. I enjoyed it. It was totally bombastic and Gurren Lagann-esque but it was good. Tatsumi dying I think was the best possible move the anime could have done especially since Mine is dead, it doesn't give Tatsumi much purpose anymore imo. He did his duty and he was a hero till the end, well played. Also the speech with Bulat was a nice touch.

However his Incusio 2.0 design was not as cool as the one in the manga. I was kind of disappointed there.

Anyways, I'm excited to see Akame use her trump card finally. It should look awesome animated.

Congrats, Whitefox.

You managed to surpass DEEN in asspulls and shitting on adaptations. .

DO I even want to see this trainwreck till the end? Or will the last episodes be even worse than this and scar me for life?

On one hand I survived DEENFSN, Tokyo Ghoul, Tsubasa Chronicle and bunch of other horribly handled adaptations.

On other hand Whitefox might surpass them all for all I know.


Where did his go so wrong?...

So how about doing what MOST MANGA ADAPTATIONS ARE DOING - adapt till the certain point and then end the season.

SAO is doing that.
Fairy Tail has been doing that.
Countless other adaptations too.

There's no excuse for this bullshit.

AkG's true nature IS shonen. God. Haven't you read the manga? Its not some grim dark fantasy. Its bloody shonen. That said, the anime is still pretty great compared to the manga. I've read it and i'm not cringing because i'm not blind and i realized that deviation from the source doesn't ALWAYS mean a bad thing.


I'm not sure why you're so upset. I've read the manga and even though it's classified as a shonen, I've yet to see a shonen (intended for a young male audience) that also involves rape and beastiality. I never said the anime was bad, I just think they could have executed the story better.

Rape? There is implied rape yeah. But not actual rape. And implied rape is present in many shonens. Plus, beastiality? err, you need to look up the meaning haha

Love the animation this episode, fight scenes were dope. Although I know its way off from the manga it was pretty on its own.

I thought we were done with more deaths but guess I was wrong. I hoped Tatsumi is the last.

You're kidding right? There's blatant rape in the manga, BLATANT. And you must have not read chapter 23.5, there was definitely bestiality (I get shivers just thinking about that chapter...)

Also shounen doesn't necessarily mean it can't have fucked up situations, it's still a shounen regardless of all the dark things it has in it, I can agree with you there.

I really don't know what to say other than it was pretty damn funny.. While the action was good the story after the mecha came out was hilariously all over the place..

Tatsumi- "look at the people you're hurting!"

Lil shit- (looks at people and starts to see what he cause then questions his actions) so far so good

Yolo Minister- "don't listen to him" yea right even though you're seeing destruction you caused

Lil Shit- (turns to Tatsumi) "rawww!!! Liar"

lol only for plot😂😂😂

Best part about the episode

Esdeath- "Tatsumi dieded" no emotion justing stating it like a matter of fact

5/5 for humor
