There is nothing redeemable about the show, it does nothing new, incredibly pedestrian story telling, and relies on shockvalue to fall back on its characters.
Killing off all your characters is not edgy, nor creative. Especially, when your characters are so bad that I openly laugh during the "emotional" scenes. You can have an edgy show with well-written characters, and you can kill off most of your cast. Just look at F/Z. Akame ga kill wasn't the first to do it, nor was it the first to execute it so poorly.
Mirai Nikki (Granted, more arguments can be made for the former, but there's still plenty wrong with Mirai Nikki) and more importantly Akame ga kill are both shit shows that explain how low your standards are (and there's nothing wrong with that) if you liked them. I understand why beginner Anime fans would not see the flaws (since they're still in that psychedelic-trance like state of mind where they're amazed at all the Anime they watch), but when you watch more and more Anime or anything really your standards get higher and then you can reflect. With Akame ga kill, the quality of the show throughout is so apparently bad that it can't be refuted.

Hahaha! The fact you literally went out of your way and took so much time to write what you wrote speaks volumes. In my experience, people that don’t like an anime, don’t care about the anime… and…. You care enough to write a damn essay about how you dislike it lol. I drop series i give a 6 or less… I don’t have time for just fine. I think all your message would do will cause more eyes on the subject.

Well if you got heated this much then it did something right. That has value. I look at Akame ga kill like full metal alchemist. The anime started while the manga was ongoing and the anime went with in a different direction. There might be an Akame ga kill ‘brotherhood’ one day but that’s going off topic. The lowest popular anime I rated was Cowboy bebop. I watched that show 6 times starting in 2001 on adult swim. I had to sit through it to watch Trigun or other interesting anime after it. I don’t like Cowboy bebop… I don’t get the hype. But if I didn’t have to sit through it every weekend at 12am, then I would have so much resentment. So my question for you is, why do you resent the series so much… that you’ll write an essay about it? It’s not like Akame ga kill is one of those popular anime that people shove in your face like attack on Titan or elitist that hype it up as a masterpiece like Hunter x Hunter. In my opinion, I think the Akame ga kill is a masterpiece. It’s like my 70th anime I completed since I was part of the 90’s Toonami generation and early 2000’s adult swim generation. I didn’t watch Akame ga kill until way later. Like in 2017 and again in 2021. Which between 2017 and 2021 my experience in anime quadrupled. Personally, I agree with your arguments. But it’s not exclusive to Akame ga kill but rather anime in general… I can’t fault AGK for being an anime.

No, when your show is talked about being bad so much, it probably is. This is no exception. SAO, Akame Ga Kill, Mirai Nikki, HOTD, Domestic Girlfriend, Oreimo; when your show has THAT much infamous notoriety, it means that it did something terribly wrong. It is MUCH harder for people to reach an agreement on what is good. Therefore, shows get hyped, expectations fall, you get the point. However, on the topic of shows that people do not enjoy, there is more credibility there, since it is harder to please than to disappoint. If you want a take on why people don't like certain things, there's mine.
Akame Ga Kill is popular enough, and (while I fall into this trap, myself) disliking something, because it is popular is not enough reason to. Sure, I could dislike Cowboy Beebop, Attack on Titan S3-current (Haven't caught up, anyhow) solely on popularity. Yet, I ask you: Where's the merit in that? People will always judge with subjectivity of course, but that doesn't mean you outright throw objectivity out the window, either. And from an objective perspective, Akame Ga Kill just fails on a lot of points (Hence, the things I discussed earlier).
I hate things that I hate. And I'm passionate about what I enjoy and what I don't, I write "essays," as you call them, for anything; not just what I dislike. When you (general) engage in a discussion with someone about liking/disliking it's important to acknowledge both sides of the argument. That is how debates are formed.

It's overall a fun but average series, mainly carried by Esdeath, the action scenes and the character deaths. The last five episodes of the anime held it back from being a solid 6 for me.
