| The only 2 I see surviving are Najenda and Run. I know Akame will kill Esdeath sure she is so incredibly powerful but look at Akame's teigu one scratch and Esdeath dies not to mention her hidden ability is coming next episode, I feel something stupid is going to happen but it wont be Esdeaths death it will likely be Esdeath doing something stupid or destroying everything. |
 |
| Yes of course just kill the main character at the end .... But i was ready for that :') |

Third, unlike some people in this universe, I like to move on and think about the positives rather than dwell in the past forever. THANK YOU FOR THAT Darklight is such a troll Pls somebody shut him up I've read the manga but i still had the feels this ep. Dont get the unwarranted hate now. I mean you idiot blind mangafegs knew this wasnt gonna follow the manga from ep 19 then why the F*** are you guys complaining in this thread. Amazing episode. So sad about tatsumi..ugh |

Tokoya said: This episode was really good, like I didn't think that it would have been on this level. I'm gonna go in depth this time too 1. Apart from Tatsumi (I'll get to him soon) I really loved what they did with Wave, the emperor and most of all Ran. The reason why I say this is because with the Emperor, we all knew that he was being used and he couldn't see it but once he entered the mech it became more than that. We saw his inner conflict with himself which makes sense because for a kid to be a ruler, a lot I'd expected of him and it's hard to follow 1000 years of greatness so the pressure from that got to him. But even then he still showed that he wasn't truly evil because he did realize that what he was doing was wrong and he even begged Tatsumi to stop fighting so that he couldn't hurt his people even more In regards to Wave and Ran, they did exactly what I expected then to do in the manga, especially Ran because like I said, this is what the manga foreshadowed for his character before they messed up his character, so for me Anime Ran>>Manga Ran, the level of depth they gave him was great 2. The action was superb, all of the fights were awesome, Ran's abilities were showcased very well, Akame was badass, that Wave and Tatsumi teamup was great (I really want to see that happen in the manga) and the mech battle in general was actually decent. 3. Tatsumi.....I'd be lying if I said that everything that happened with him was bad. He stayed true to his ideals, he never backed down, his thoughts never wavered and that one scene where he remembered what Aniki said....That was amazing, everything from that point was amazing and I genuinely felt sad that he died but he went out swinging like a badass and WF in commend you for that My only nitpick is that I wanted them to use the manga trams formation design but this one wasnt all that bad, I liked that he got wings tho. This was the best original episode to date imo....Next episode is gonna suck, I don't want to see Esdese die lol Except the esdeath part at the end, This! Just This! can darklight and the rest of the manga purist let us enjoy AgK now? |

Moodie said: Darkdrone said: did the anime really change it from divine to god? i mean that could be a translation issue tbh 1) Anime changes "divine wings" to "god's wings". 2) Leone was in the air helpless, facing a Teigu user that has supremacy in the air......yet Run doesn't kill her. Leone even says "crap" but yet she still managed to survive the supposed final battle. Lol Doubled check from the wiki. Said divine wings and you know that makes more sense than god's wing when it comes to Run. |
| HAHAHAHAHAHA |
| Why did they not follow the manga ? Why some dumbass anime director decided to change it ? |
| That Megazord bullshit is so bad... And Tatsumi drank too much Red bull it seems. It was one of the better Anime original episodes, but still........ |

That salt must run really deep. I love this adaption of Kill the Manga Readers. Thanks to you douches, I found out about certain characters that died in the anime that were supposed to be alive for the next season in a few years. Whitefox took revenge on you all, and left a mark. Glorious. Left a mark. By giving you sorry sobs a luke warm slop of bullshittery and poor writing. Let me guess. You love the transformer movies too don't you? All flash and no substance. That's the food of the sheep these days huh? |

Stark700 said: It's interesting about PV though. Akame reveals trump card (I think)  I predict the Tokyo Ghoul OP playing during the Akame/Esdeath fight |
| Bet Tatsumi is thankful for that red bull he had for breakfast |
|
| Lets all be real. Esdeath is immortal. Akame will lose and die, the end. |

| thank you akame ga kill for going full stupidity. the only way this episode could have been good is if they went that way and thankfully they did. on its own and ignoring the source material it was well animated entertaining episode. power wise it was fine if esdeath can freeze god damn time then tatsumi can go ancient dragon super sentai on the emperor's ass ran's teacher backstory had no impact compared to the manga and the setup for akame vs esdeath is pretty bad too. . |

The second tells us something that apparently there is a discrepance because the staff of the anime wanted it (I don't know what) like it is, and that he wanted to be work with the anime staff/he wanted to do something for the anime staff. That explains why Tatsumi became Magnamon instead of what he was in the manga. |
| I enjoyed this episode despite my preconception of the giant robot monster thing would make it cheesy. I wonder how Esdeath is gonna react next episode, she may shrug it off or she may be holding her emotions in during the fight and will show in when she's about to lose. Despite the changes from the manga, I still enjoyed this. In the manga: |

I've been in pure agony over Wave and how it was likely he'd die anytime now... but no, my baby's still alive ;~;' Sucks about Tatsumi though.. Now, as a side note. I officially ship Leone x Run x3 |

| I came here to see the rage, wasn't disappointed. On another note, I liked the episode despite being a mangareader. Tatsumi went Kill la Kill on that gundam and died a hero. It was an epic way to finish the tale. Only thing I hated about the alternate ending in this show is Mine dying. I felt it didn't have any purpose since soo much of NR was already dead. |
 |
| RIP Akame vs Esdeath in the next episode? |
| Hi there |
| At least Tatsumi and Mine will be together in the land of the destroyed animes. |
Tokoya said: so for me Anime Ran>>Manga Ran, the level of depth they gave him was great Lol what depth? |
 |
| Last episode preview look very promising. With all the dirty work Tatsumi did in this Anime, he is more of a leading role than Akame. |
| The amount of people here who haven't seen the actual episode...... wow |
| no |
| One of the worst male protagonists in any anime has finally died. |
| Still love AKG, just wish they didn't kill everyone off. |
| as a manga reader, I dont care about the continuity, the manga isnt done and the monthly chapters are slow, an anime original end couldnt be helped(and as most readers already know, the wild hunt arc was crap anyway). I was just hoping that they'd at least keep the main theme of the show instead of pulling a super sayain gurren laggan and a giant final boss that makes soul eater's finale look subtle in comparison. I dont like admitting it though, but I still enjoyed this ep because I saw it as more of a parody of agk than an actual adaptation. |
land161 said: One of the worst male protagonists in any anime has finally died. How is Tatsumi one of the worst anime protagonists? |
| Overall this was a good ep for me. The animation in this ep was pretty good. I expected it to be usual level of animation seen in AGK so that kinda surprised me a bit. The action was solid, though I' kinda sad to see that Wave was defeated so easily compared to Tatsumi even though his Imperial Arm is supposed to be better. Sad to see that Tatsumi died, but I have a feeling that he'll be revived next ep. I'm glad we got to see more of Run's Imperial Arms(it was shown only once before iirc). I'm happy to see that Leone will live, unless she's killed by a stray ice-spike in the next ep. I hope that the Esdeath and Akame fight will be good even though the outcome is really predictable. I hope it doesn't end up like the Akame vs Kurome, which disappointed me. I was expecting a good fight out of that but we got talk and Akame and Kurome team up vs the danger beast. I guess I can understand the mangareaders for bashing the anime because it wasn't an amazing adaptation they expected of a manga they enjoyed(allot I assume). I didn't read the manga so I don't really care much. |
 |
| Can't we all say this episode was better than a fivesome? |
 |
| If they put ''Go! Go! Power Rangers'' as OST and made Emperor or Tatsumi/Wave scream ''Who the hell do you think i am!/we are!'' i would totally give this show a 10/10. Not even commenting on content of episode, but animation and drawings in some moments were pretty damn awesome, can't lie.Too bad that's about it...next episode finale huh.Finally. |

| hehe giant mech vs winged tatsumi... this isn't even funny :P |
| For those who seek perfection, there can be no rest on this side of the grave. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. |
| Pff the hate, i think it was a pretty enjoyable episode. Too bad Tatsumi died, but we get to see Akame vs Esdeath next time. |
| Been reading the manga for years and have for the most part been positive about the anime adaptation. Generally the source material is superior and one has to live that. IBut the last couple of episodes have been really poor and this one was a disaster. All the spouting of shounen dialogue nonsense, Esdeath not being present at the climactic battle despite being the main antagonist, Wave suddenly becoming an ally in one episode's worth of action etc etc etc... Just poor writing. I hope Takahiro is taking notes and finishing this in a very different way in the manga. |
