Story: (4/10) The concept looked unique and great to me. Assassins fighting against a corrupt government for the good of the people. The first episode did a good job grabbing my attention. The twist in the first episode made me sympathize with Tatsumi and Night Raid's cause. It made me want to see them succeed in their bloody path to "Justice". I mostly enjoyed the story.... until the last two episodes. The episodes were rushed and events that unfolded during them felt "unnecessary" to me. At this point I realized there was a (fatal) flaw in how the characters were developed throughout the story.
Characters: (4/10) I would like to put an emphasis on the characters, as this is the main reason for my overall rating. A majority of the characters had some kind of backstory to get you attached to them. While the characters were somewhat likable, the rate at which they were introduced and removed did not give the viewers time to get attached. I only liked Tatsumi since he was given a good amount of screen time to develop and felt normal/relatable.
Art: (6/10) I like the look of White fox's animation. Nothing really stood out enough to remember and mention.
Sound: (6/10) The characters sounded average. Both openings didn't stand out much, although I did like part of the second opening. The Ending songs had a sad feel to them, possibly to compensate for the lack of attachment to the characters.
Enjoyment: (5/10) Akame ga Kill! hooked me in from the start and made me watch it to the end. It started off well in the beginning, became shaky in the middle, and then ended in a crash. If you want a good story with good characters, stay away. If your looking for something with action and blood you might find this entertaining.
Overall: (4/10)
