Preliminary (7/80 chp)
It's too random and funny to be taken serious but it is also way too edgy to be considered a comedy. In the first chapter you will discover a room filled with dead and tortured bodies, it is a very horrific scene. The next panel shows the person responsible for this trying to comedically tip toe away out of the situation. That is just one example of many. The fight scenes are terrible, in one scenario the MC is clearly overwhelmed and can't move, then out of nowhere he cuts the persons arms off with no panel explaining how he got out of the predicament he was in earlier. Another time Akame CLEARLY got cut vertically and yet the injury is horizontal.

It is absolutely baffling that this abomination is a two man job. The work load is cut in half and yet it feels like neither of the two really care. The 'author' has created an incredibly generic story here that relies on fan service to distract the reader from how garbage the plot is. It is the most generic, uninspired Shounen story you will come across, and yet it has Seinen levels of violence. This is a very jarring combination and I am left wondering who is this aimed for? Because besides the high levels of violence every other aspect about this manga is clearly just run of the mill Shounen tropes. I already mentioned my gripes with the fight scenes earlier, but it once again puzzles me how the artist seems to have no issue with creating fight sequences that make no sense. Admittedly, the artist is good and his fighting panels are decent its just the very obvious gaps and missing information in them (off scene ass pulls galore) that bother me.

If you like massive amounts of fan service, meta humour, random humour, out of place humour and don't care about investing into something that has a garbage plot then I suppose this is for you.
