| I dont really see any depth in the characters' backstories. That eye imperial arm is a fail. Cant even see through underwear lol. Im getting the feeling that the new girl will get killed in the next episode. |

| What's with all the cute girls this episode? And Hanazawa??? <333 Sheele still wins though for comforting v.v. What a sweetheart and I loved that she characterized it as finding another useful purpose for herself. |
-Riptide- said: Jonesy974 said: For you anime only watchers: You shouldn't have said this. It ruins the way we will enjoy next ep you know? Since we'll be expecting what will hapeen =_= Reason why I tend to read Manga when a series grasps my attention. People on MAL can't shut up. Well, not everyone reads manga anyway. rip 2k14 for all you anime fans since AgK has a poor fan base. Their lips are as loose as a prostitute vagina, fuck. Not all of them though. Also people who tell others that they're spoiling are just as bad :) Moonchipz said: Is it just me or has the animation and visuals been a lot better lately? The last two episodes have looked great, while the first three looked like some shitty 2007 anime. Shouldn't the opposite happen, you know, the studio blows out their budget on the first few episodes and the rest look bad? I'm not complaining, but it's peculiar. Yeah the art kind of sucks. Animation as well. Episode 1 & 4 had good art and animation but that was probably due to White Fox spending their budget on those episodes. All I can pretty much say is stay tune for next weeks episode, judging from the preview that is. I'll keep my lips sealed for now and appear next week. inb4 spoilers appear v v v |
"Hi!" |
| Man Sheele sure is likable in this episode. |
| Yet again, very disjointed feeling events in a single episode This show lacks finesse big time. It truly appeals to the reactionary types, and not people who like to think :P like omg, a character died, this show is so cool!!!11!!... |
| Esdeath looks amazing and I knew that voice was familiar, Kanahana. |
| Nice episode. Interesting to know about Sheela's past. General Esdeath looks like a powerful foe to come. Next week looks good. |

Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A lot of Sheele and Tatsumi bonding this episode. I think this is the first time they've spent more time together since he joined Night Raid. Poor Sheele...her past did not look pretty at all. As I had thought, Tatsumi using Zank's Teigu would give him X ray vision lmao.  The Prime Minister was pretty priceless to watch this episode. Oh we meet Seryu this episode. |

| Roseanne Maceda |
| Finally my queen made her first appearance this episode :) |
 |
| Pfff...I just knew he's gonna activate that see through skill when he puts that Arms on. What's more, he only look at the ladies? No naked Bulat or Bro..oh wait So far, quite enjoyable. |
| Esdeath! She finally made her appearance along with Seryuu. She and Coro are perfect partners. Fits her character and personality really. Although judging from the preview, her face looks like she's really sadistic. |
| Ooooh The feels.I'm gonna shed a tear again On Next episode. On the plus side,ESDEATH WHOOOOO |
 |
| Kana Hanazawa! And my Queen Esdese finally made a brief appearance. Seryuu is cute huh? wait till next episode and see if you will still call her cute. |
 |
| Liked the episode pretty much. From the way she's presented, Esdeath seems to be at the top end of every badass scale - I don't read the manga so I don't know. Also, Seryu... I think she's either going to be a major pain in the butt for nightraid - or vanish into nothingness sooner or later. |

bladeangel said: LoomyTheBrew said: Wait, excuse me? Forced interactions? simialr to SAO? Could please elaborate on that thought? I just wish they wouldn't use up as much time as they do showing me Tatsumi doing random chores with Akame, Mine, and Sheele one at a time like there's a waiting line to interact with the MC. Add that to the similar animation (which is very nice) and the fact that the Seryuu guard girl has a very similar model to Asuna and I couldn't help but think of SAO. I'm not saying it's becoming SAO since I can see that the character interactions with Tatsumi are there to tell us more about the personalities in the night raid crew, but it would have been better to mix that in during the action or plot driven scenes imo...instead of having them do chores to create interaction. SEryuu? Like Asuna. *laughs himself to death* |
| One episode a bit warm, but I liked the pace this time, until episode 10 will be the introduction of the characters, for once the plot starts to get a little more serious and drained. What I did not like was the animation ... White Fox can do better! |

The chores are training. Just wait for episodes lols. The manga has 51 chapters each MOSTLY 40 pages long. The anime won't even reach half of the chapters at this pace and I'm glad it won't.They'd better not rush it like Tokyo ghoul. |

I heard they're adapting up to the beginning of volume 8 so meh. That sheds light on a season 2 depending how the first season goes. |

"Hi!" |
| I like the show thus far, but it's just meh. Some of the characters seem...well...half-baked. Like... unimaginative even. Exhibit A: Mine and Saya from Highschool of the Dead. Everyone just seems so.... done before. It's kind of hard to get connected to the show because of it. Hopefully things will get more interesting because the show has a lot of potential. |

Hate to admit it but you have a point :P Character developments in Akame ga kiru is Slow though so it should happen in Future episodes. Also Night raids' Characters already Developed in their back stories.I don't know what exactly kind of development you want for Night raid's Members.So events "They are in crisis" Won't work on developing them.Since they are professionals already and Encountered it numerous times in their lives. Its mainly focus on Tatsumi's Character development since he's the MC(Duh) and New to being an Assassin. Anyway even I can't properly explain it but you get the point as the Episodes roll in. |

I'm honestly not even frustrated anymore, mostly amused now, I check back every now and then to see if there are any more spoilers and most of the time I'm not disappointed. |

| DUDE! Zank's Imperial Arm ROCKS! See through those girls clothing.....HOT! XD *COUGH* Umm....ok....sorry about that. :/ Anyways, it seems that....Sheele is now training Tatsumi. :3 Cool....but ...yet again we learned about another tragic past. :/ It's kind of cool how like....calm Sheele is...when it comes to killing. :P I guess that's the only good thing about her, cause you know, she's an airhead and stuff. :P Seryuu Ubiquitous, the Imperial Police officer of Justice! Who....has an adorable looking Imperial Arm named Coro...or...that's what she called it. :P Next episode! D: What is that Imperial Arm, and what does it do? owo Oh god Mine had pantyhose on~! D: So hot! D: Rawr!!! x3 |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| What a episode full of originality... Seryu and her relation to the Dark Raid and the Imperial Arms is very creative and original. That was pathetic. Esdeath looks disappointing, was expecting a well written character but from the looks of it she will be just another badass character with grim smiles that likes to kill. |

| Damn... for an airhead, Sheele kicks some serious ass. And Justice-chan and Coro are so friggin' adorable (not so adorable in the preview though). Overall a solid episode. I enjoyed it. 4/5 |
| Next episode is the one that we've all been waiting for :D |

Darklight0303 said: I actually like the introduction of someone to give that type conflict, what I didn't was the ridiculously poor way she was done. Spouting "justice justice" and "I have to beat evil, good always wins" is something you would expect on a parody, not as a legit character, that was too poorly done even for AkG's standards.Setimo said: What a episode full of originality...

Darklight0303 said: Saying that she /looks/ poorly done and that from the /looks of it she will.../ is speculation&expectation, not an ability to see into the future. Don't worry, there's time for your "waifu" to prove she can be less simple than that. :P Seryu on the other hand is a lost case, even though she could have been a decent addition.Setimo said: I actually like the introduction of someone to give that type conflict, what I didn't was the ridiculously poor way she was done.

| a good episode, That seems to complete the introduction with teamwork Tatsumi with each member of Nigh Raid. The serious things will probably start when returning esdese to the capital, a sadist as I love them ^ ^ ' |
| I hope to see some good tatsumi scenes next episode, i cant stand him atm -.- episode a 4/5 I guess, nothing special |

| Compared to the other AgK eps that have been aired so far, this one was surprisingly enjoyable. But then again, people still seem to get very overexcited about this show for some reason (and yes, we obviously all know the reason(s)). Long story short: I'm not dropping this show yet. Still lots of eps to go tho ;) |
| Pretty great episode made me hyped for what's coming up :D |
