I don't really cry watching anime and I didn't do it with this one but there is always that feeling of well feeling second-hand emotion from tv shows or movies. That tingling feeling in your stomach or chest. I have never felt this feeling more in anime (closest is Your Name.) I really enjoyed I want to eat your pancreas. The plot was amazing, story phenomenal, raw emotion beautiful, feel just excellent. The ending was hard to get through. It was incredibly sad and that doesn't make it bad in fact it makes it better to watch. I would definitely recommend.

I honestly sort of enjoyed Akame ga Kill! but I cam at it with the wrong approach. Akame GA Kill! is the sort of anime that doesn't know what it is. In the first episode, I got the goofiness from Naruto and the Seven Deadly Sins and then 10 minutes in the whole thing turned into Attack on Titan or High School of the Dead. Don't get me wrong it is good it's just don't come in with high expectations because YOU WILL disappoint yourself in the end. Now let us get to the part of this show that most people talk about or are ... concerned about. The ending was simply put not good. Any way you spin it (at least in my opinion) it was just not a good direction for the anime. (If you have watched Assassination Classroom) you will feel the same way most people felt towards that ending times 5. Overall watch Akame ga Kill if you want. Probably best to watch it for watching sake because I may have made it a 7 overall but it would be a 5-6 in certain situations. I liked it but not that much.



PS. THIS IS JUST MY OPINION IF YOU WANT TO WATCH AKAME GA KILL! WATCH IT. MY REVIEW SHOULD NOT AFFECT WHAT YOU TRULY WANT TO DO, IT IS JUST HERE TO GUIDE YOU TO A POSSIBLE CHOICE OUT OF MANY

the beginning of this movie is one of the most heart touching parts of any show/movie I have ever seen. the extra hour of just "filler" in the middle kind of took away that feeling that's why I put it as an 8. The ending was simply beautiful it could not have been better. I honestly think the whole show would've worked better as a tv show because that's what it felt like - a prolonged tv show instead of a movie which is not bad it's just how it felt. I wouldn't mind if ASV was a tv show with seasons instead of a ... movie. It's a beautiful story with an amazing plot but that hour of "feel-good filler" that indirectly takes away from the story but at the same time adds to it. WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO WATCH


ps. i do think some more emotional music would have done this movie justice and pushed it to a ten for sure. i just didn't feel that much emotion in the middle due to the lack of emotional high points.
