| HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT Did not expect something like that coming especially 6 episodes in. Justice-Chan showing her "Strong Sense of Justice" was a tad too much for me but I loved it nonetheless. I guess there are no angels in this anime. My version didn't censor the gory parts. |
 |
| Just to clarify. The reason I really didn't like this episode wasn't because of the lack of time we had to relate to/like Sheele. In FMA, brotherhood or not, the chimera girl had very little screen time, yet her death worked perfectly and shocked/touched near everyone. What really bothers me here is how her death was handled. It was very poorly handled and some of the reasons were already specified, like if she had just died and if they hadn't dragged it out, and the very sad (I mean cheesy) slideshow of her with the night raid, it would have been way better. Can't she just die after being ripped in half? Does she really have to come out of the monster's mouth and save Mein? Then the aftermath was waay too cheesy, and Mein's VA didn't make it any better. Ouch, my ears are still hurting from that. Then the music. The scene was already cheesy by itself, and then they came up with the most cliche type of music for this. Brilliant. I really don't care if it was exactly like this in the manga. If it was, then they should have made it better in the anime, because a good adaptation isn't synonym to doing everything exactly like the source material. TL;DR What was bad wasn't only the poor characterization of Sheele, it was mostly the way her death was handled |
| Let's unite and kill that Seryu bitch ._. Sheele ;_; Other than that, great episode, pleasingly bloody in the beginning. Also, another thing I really start to like about AgK are the facial expressions of the characters. I don't know why I like them so much, but I do. |
 |
| Honestly? I didn't expect her to die so early, but now that I think about it there were a death flag or two for her, so it makes sense. Pretty disgusting episode by the way, yet so good. This really builds up a lot of hate for the dog justice girl, who obviously is not going to die anytime soon. They will build it up some more. Darxen said: It was very poorly handled and some of the reasons were already specified, like if she had just died and if they hadn't dragged it out, and the very sad (I mean cheesy) slideshow of her with the night raid, it would have been way better. Can't she just die after being ripped in half? I agree on that good sir. I found the slideshow quite annoying. A only glance towards Mine saying "Have I been helpful now?" just before her death, could have been of more impact IMHO. |

| The thing that I didn't like in this chapter or episode is that she died too soon, so I didn't felt anything when she died. She barely got any screen time until the chapter before she died. I feel the author could have given her more time before killing her. I was shock that she died so early but I didn't feel sad or anything. In later chapters though I did feel sad for some characters that died. Regardless this was a good episode. 4/5 |

| I wish Mine had died instead. Oh well. I agree @keragamming, Sheele could've had a bit more of screen time and the death would've been a lot sadder, or even more shocking. They didn't handle it too well, but it was definitly something "different". Not all shows kill off important characters in the 6th episode, lol. Still edgy as fuck, but it's entertaining. |
 |
| Sheele ;( |
| Sheele death was sad in the manga but this was even sadder :'( Now everyone will know why Seryu is a bitch but even if you hated her wait until you see Wild Hunt. Hopefully more Esdeath next episode :) Luckily my episode was not censored, ohh that beautiful blood. |
| The entire formula of the series is right here in this episode. |
| Holy crap pretty intense episode. We got sheele's death and Coro is such an useful dog. Seryu's "justice" is basically just revenge. |

| Damn... I was not expecting a character death already. I would of preferred mine to die over schere anyday. Schere seemed like such a cool character she was by far the nicest to tatsumi. The scene after the fight where that monster was chewing on schere's arm was just painful to watch lol. Can't wait to see how her death affects night raid and especially tatsumi. Who would of known that seryu had a third gun and in her mouth of all places. Like her dog she is literally a weapon. |

| Having a death scene try to be this emotional at just episode 6 was disappointing. All Tatsumi did was spend a day with her, it didn't really seem like he was all that attached. Basically every other girl has hit on him in some way, he obviously isn't alone. Yeah Sheele was the best girl, but when you spend just one episode developing her I really can't be as emotionally distraught as the scene made it out to be. |

Tokoya said: Ice Death better be cool then because otherwise you won't see me posting in future episodes :pAwwwww, I thought that you would of really liked this one :( Oh well, fair enough...Looking forward to seeing your opnion on Esdese and other characters in future episodes =P |
 |
| This was actually done pretty nicely, especially uncensored version. Gore and cruelty, yay. If I was 14 yo I've already loved this show to death. 6/10 |
| Wow, can't believe a major character just died within the sixth episode of a shonen series. I was overestimating the plot armor in this series. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| This episode was irritating. It's not the fact that Sheele was devoured, but how they came about it. Correct me if I'm missed something, but wasn't the point of fighting police girl(forgot her name) one on one to take her out? "Imperial arms are tools. It will stop once the user is killed" were the exact words she said so why did she slice at her arms again when she could have killed her right there? Didn't they take time last episode explaining how that was her specialty? When Coro went berserk, she could have beheaded police girl, neutralize him and walked out of the fight alive because police girl's reinforcements were small fry. Three birds with one stone, no? Instead, she missed her best chance to end things, went for the Coro's arm that she knows will regenerate, lowered her guard and lost her life. 6/10 and I'm being generous. |
Keetriver said: So in the end they did end up cutting out the whole boiling sequence. Suppose we'll be waiting for the Blu Rays. I believe the scene you are speaking of will be shown in the next episode. EDIT: Or actually not, lol. The scene is actually shown on http://www.akame.tv but differently. Guess it was too brutal for TV. |

| R.I.P Sheele. I hope someone gets Seryu, won't be satisfied. |
 |
| I understand the need for drama but wtf was with that last bit after the fight ? they actually showed that stupid dog still eating Sheele's arm...WTF..but yeah, stupid pointless death. |

Yeah, i think i should stop taking it seriously to prevent further disappointment. |
| Great episode, good thing there where no censors in the version I watched. Looking forward to next week. |
 |
| So this was the emotional scene that every manga reader was talking about? I guess I had my hopes too high. There was no time to even get attached to the character, and she's already killed off. Sorry, but just because she's technically considered a main character does not make her death more emotional all of a sudden. I understand if it had been Mine, but Sheele...? |
| Overall was great. i enjoyed it. Leone and MC were having great time raping all those thugs.. in the other hand Sheele was ate by that...weird....Justice-girl's...weird pet. Such modification on her body...Gun in her mouth... |
 |
| holy shit.... I knew this might be graphic but wow. one girl gets her arms ripped off. another was almost crushed to death by some dog thing. and poor Sheele was killed. damn that was hardcore. |

| Sheele as epic as in the manga, huh. See ya in next life, Sheele. *trollface* Awesome episode. |
| SHEELEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE |
Been waiting for this episode and IMO they did this justice. No censors and the music/animation was on point. Great episode. Now I can't wait for "that" moment in about 3 episodes or so. Also gotta love this lol [Spoiler]  |

| As a non reader I have high expectation on this anime. But it's been a downhill ever since the first episode. Seriously, how stupid does the mangaka take the reader? He could save Mine from Goro by killing that police girl who was right in front of her which will instantly stop Goro. But NooooOOOOooo~~ She has to jump back 500m and cut Goro's hand instead Poor decision making. With that terrible judgement, no wonder you died first. *Sigh* I'm not done yet An installed weapon inside hand? How does it even work? What happen to the bones? How is she still able to move her hand? and how did she fire those fire arms without fingers to pull the trigger? Does it follows the brain commands? Pretty advance technology I must say, Maybe it should be registered as Imperial Arm as well. |
| "Burn the heretics" |
| Wow, this thread in uncontrollable. Anyway, nice episode. Although I was already seeing Sheele's death coming, it was still a little shocking, it will be strange from now on without her. I just hope the next deaths won't be so easy to predict as this one. I'm starting from the principle that the character that will die will receive a little glimpse of development before dying and, in this case, the only members of NR that received development at this point were Akame, Mein and Sheele. Akame seems impossible to die (at least that soon) and Mein seems kinda difficult or else she wouldn't be put as a Main Character in the character list so Sheele was the only option. About Seryu, I actually still like her despite the turn in her personality. I just wonder how will she continue from now on without BOTH arms (how did she not died from blood loss?) O.o. Can't wait for next episode. |

| Hanazawa Kana really is at her best when she's batshit crazy. I thought so in Kamisama Dolls. I thought so in Binbougami! And I still think so here. |
 |
| wow of course my favourite night raider is the first one to die.. DAMMIT im actually enraged, this anime does a freaking amazing job at making you absolutely despise the enemy. Hell, I actually kind of thought i liked seryuu from the previous ep but no fuck that i want everyone associated with the king to freaking die, even the little shit himself. Luckily they've already shown they have no problem showing children get killed.. damn that sounded insane.. As for everyone who had to watch a censored version, i have one word for you: torrents :D http://katproxy.com/usearch/akame%20ga%20kill/ |
The best anime is the Road to El Dorado |
| Neverend argument as always you guys really love debate as manga reader, this eps adaptation is good, especially the action part i`m not getting goosebump since already know the story, but still enjoyable |
 |
| Man I just watched this episode. I am so mortified by what happened!! AARRRRRGGG. This is how I feel!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4soysiwmik&list=UU6HUAjzE2TZwJf3W2eWE9qQ |
| I didn't get any censoring at all hmm...I'm serious zen zen Sheele, I didn't like you that much because it doesn't make sense how you're a big klutz but you can kill off people, but I guess I'll miss you. Yeah yeah decent ep! Yeah they stayed true to the fact that when imperial arm users clash, one must die |
| We didn't really get to see her much and that's it? RIP |
| "HER SCISSORS CAN CUT THROUGH ANYTHING!" >Seryuu proceeds to block a thousand freaking stabs with her tonfas "WE JUST NEED TO KILL THE TEIGU USER WHILE WE HAVE THE CHANCE" >has the chance >proceeds to just cut off her arms instead of kill her on the spot Fucking retarded. |
| Am I the only one who doesn't feel the OST for this show? I mean, very good animation, no censorship at all and the pacing is really nice, nothing has been rushed so far, but the OST for this show really doesn't stand out. In my opinion someone like Sawano Hiroyuki was perfect for this, but well, now that he's working on Aldnoah.Zero that won't happen. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater but I am someone who really likes OSTs, and AgK has been really disappointing so far. |
