Lol, people being salty about anime original content and saying the adaptation is immediately destroyed.

Look at Arperggio of blue steel, even though about a huge bulk of it was anime original content, it still turned out great. The same thing can be applied to AgK even though a major fight was skipped.

Furthermore, I rather them end anime original than just stop after said fight without any closure. It would be much better for them to bring proper closure to the anime than stop at 1 point, then realizing that they are not able to make a season 2 because A: they do not have enough funds due to the lack of popularity, B: its way too close to the manga, C: the wild hunt arc is super controversial by itself. Seriously, I know we manga readers are kinda disappointing but stop making the problem look so overblown.

Man, everyone's crying about 'the big fight' being axed from the show

No-one said they can't just move it to a later episode in a completely different scenario. Some of you guys are being farrrr too close-minded about what the writers for the show can possibly do


They can't because the fuckin circusmtances changed.


You need to stop overreacting. I can understand that you are upset but seriously, just watch it till the end before you make any final judgement

Well this officially is going to be Tokyo Ghoul level shitty now.

Shame on you White Fox. You had it going PERFECTLY for 18 episodes. I could even say 18 and 3/4 episodes because everything except the last 5 minutes of episode 19 was perfect too. You just had to go and fuck it up.

Not only did they skip like 10 chaps and so far the best fight in the entire manga, it also looks like they're skipping way into the current manga arc judging from the preview.

The anime kind of made me feel bad for little Coro though at the end there. Didn't give a shit about Seryuu though.

So going off the manga here: MAJOR SPOILERS


There really aren't even words to express how disappointed I am going to be now that the show is straying from the source material...especially after being over 95% faithful to the manga.

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.


When does that ever actually happen? Comparing shows that get reboots and ones that don't...the odds are extremely against this getting a reboot.

They cut out Wave's crowning moment of awesome. They hit Esdeath with a retardo ray to get Bolic killed and NOW Syura is transporting Lubbock away SOLO. You don't need a microscope to see that there's absolutely no hope for this

it seems the anime will have an anime original ending.. *sigh. i really had a great expection to the anime since the manga is so awesome. The first half of the episode was good it showed mine vs seryuu fight and such. But the second half was so messed up. i mean they skipped around 10 chapters and made the borick assasination scene seems anti-climatic unlike in the manga. plus we won't see the epic esdese vs night raid fight. i thought watching akame ga kill anime would be as exciting as reading the manga but im wrong

Read my earlier post, unfortunately I think you are over exaggerating the deviations it has from the manga because as good and important those things you mentioned are, it won't matter if they are not able to end properly, especially when it is so close to the manga now. Furthermore, the author is also helping out with the anime so he might be the one who decided to make an alternate ending for both viewers and readers to think about. Think about it from that perspective.

Anyways, whether what you predict about this ending terribly being true or not, only time will tell. I view the manga and anime as separate entities so I will judge it based on how it goes. I might be naive for continuing to be optimistic but hey, if it really ends terribly, I won't try to sugarcoat its flaws.

Mine vs Seryu episode. That was a good enough action. Seryu's death was very much called for. I don't feel any bad feelings for her, but she did kill Sheele and Chelsea so, all good. Wave having a scene with his Grand Chariot was awesome. If Tatsumi and Wave fight, they should both open their Imperial Arms with that opening scene.

m8, don't go "shame on White Fox". You said it yourself, they had it going perfectly for 19+3/4 episodes, the thing is why would they fuck up now? I'm sure they wouldn't just fuck up now when there's only 5 episodes left. They could potentially be just rearranging scenes and fights to have them fit in into the last arc to have a more satisfying conclusion. It might even surprise us.

Skipping 10 chapters? I don't think it would be even wise to include any wild hunt in when there's only 4 episodes remaining and the mischief they conduct is too severe and extreme to be shown anyways. They weren't even shown in the opening, it was expected much earlier.

Episode was great though, loved the seryu vs mine action, amazing visuals and animation. Loved the top-notch ost too!

Perfectly agree. Freaking dissapointed with White Fox. having the anime start good is no excuse for us to look away when they choose to screw up shit.
Now we're getting original and probably shitty ending, and scenes not adapted, and no chance of a sequel at all.
Can only hope in a few year time some studio who dont dissapoint audience will decide to reboot it.

They'd have to come up with an entirely new reason to have them run into each other now that Borick is out of the equation. What some folks don't seem to understand is that this ending might not close off the canon and might leave room for a sequel, unlike other shows that differed from the manga late-game.

Still that sequel might never happen given how unsuccessful the show has been sales-wise

I'm not joking for once. This has happened all the time in anime, when they re order and change some events to better pace the series. This only has 5 ep. Left, they had to do something.

_ Kill the Heresy and Kill the Foe
_ Kill the Carnage
_ Kill the Adversity
_ Some relationship parts ...
_ And some unreleased chapters

I hope so

As it stands, Akame and Lubbock are still in the cathedral. Leone and Suzano should still be fighting Wave. It's worrying how Najenda has the time to have a word with Esdeath. Najenda does say something like "I wouldn't dream of facing you head on", but I still hope they animate Suu vs Esdeath even if it's rushed.

Looks like they are skipping the Wild Hunt portions entirely, doing ZERO justice to Wave cause the man freaking shines in these chapters (so does Kurome). I still hope they include the important key points from these before the end, but for the moment it looks like they are focusing on Night Raid.

WE CAN STILL HOPE AT LEAST

This exactly.
They haven't just re-arranged events, they've already changed the story drastically (Borricks death being the most retarded thing I've seen yet) so yeah, it IS a huge fucking deal. Anyone who says otherwise just hasn't read the manga properly.

I will buy and support the manga but this show dropped.

Don't drop it just yet. If they simply animate Suzano vs Esdeath (even if it's just a flashback) and include a few key events between the Jaegers and Wild Hunt then I'll be happy with resuming on Chapter 50. I'll join the angry mob boat if they fuck with the story as far as characters living when they should be dead and vice-versa

I have two things to say firstly in that last episode Najenda said something about not facing esdeath head on, which means that scene is no over.

Secondly and I am not saying this will happen but although they miss out 10 chapters so Wild Hunt is almost certainly not going to happen I still feel like chapter 50 and on wards can happen due to the events in the episode before and how they link together. In other words we may get a piece of Wild Hunt or more likely they are going to try to eliminate the ministers son which is a perfect chance to include the jeagers back story and so on. That's just what I think ;)
