And how dare they toned it down by omitting little girls who were raped by dogs and pregnant women who were eaten. Completely ruined characterization, duh.

If only the Shingeki no Bahamut OP were released... We'd see that up at number one.

No point arguing whether AgK is good anime because all these are subjective. What makes a good anime are different from each individual unless you are one of those self proclaim elitist and think everyone need to have same taste as you. SAO and Gundam Seed are selling like hot cake and better than most anime but most people in MAL wouldn't call both of those anime masterpiece. Shinsekai Yori anime sales is crap but people still consider it a great anime here in MAL. From sales perspective, things like publicity does help your sales which AgK didn't get much,thus lack of viewership and sales.

Akame ga Kill didn't sell well because it's really a generic fighting shounen series using edgy to disguise it as something deeper than it is. It's extremely rare for generic fighting shounen series to move BD/DVDs unless it has the support of the Fujoshis like Ao no Exorcist and Magi had. I bet Nanatsu no Taizai is going to sell significantly less than Akame ga Kill, even though it's already a massive success looking at the manga copies it had moved.

Pure exaggeration.

AGK doesn't have any good characters except for Esdeath for people to really get attached to so they don't buy anythnig and watch it on TV instead, yes you can watch them on TV :)

AGK deserves that sales considering what they did to the anime.

Let's adapt Berserk but take out entire Eclipse story arc.

BRILLIANT IDEA.

Because that dull side story about 3 girls being raped by dogs and tortured was TOTALLY relevant to the story, like Eclipse arc, and...wait, it wasn't. At all.
