English is not my native language so bare with me. (Non spoiler review)

When we get hurt by people or society, we tend cover into our shell. If they keep hurting us over and over again we put our heart and soul into a freezer this way they can't hurt us anymore.

We cut the cords between our heart and reality, so we can feel safe..

But in the meantime, we also put away our chance to feel love or be loved, our chance to bond with people.. that's the trade off..

But what if there's another way? What if instead of hiding and freezing our soul ... away you can be there and help others like you? If you think about it, who else would understand them better than you? You know they need someone to be there for them.. Because you’ve been there.. You know the pain of loneliness and depression cause you lived through this hell.. Maybe you’re still in it..

But in the end who else could be better than you to support those who live-in the same hell? You can choose the first or the second option, it's up to you.. But this is the story about that second option..

Great start, Mediocre mid chapter and awful ending. This should summerise the whole show.

The story was too ambitious for its own good. Trying to say too many things focusing on separate branches with no follow up or conclusion. It ambitions was its own downfall. If the series was focused on a smaller scale story with a tighter story beats this show could've been a classic. This kind of show breaks my heart more than plain awful shows. You can see the potential, sense the love that creators put in there, but if you can't adjust your story and world building scale all ... that hard work can and will collapse on its self.

This show made me laugh, emotional and horny at the same time.. and I thought I've seen it all.. Good job Kiss x Sis good job.. Or i just might be a giant pervert that's a much more feasible explanation.

If you like Harem Comedy's with genuine characters this might be what you're looking for but if you're turned off ( Hah turn off ) from excessive erotic scenes this might not be for you but still i would recommend to stick with it until episode 3 so you can get to know characters little bit better, if your still not convinced its ... probably not your cup of tea but i commend and praise the industry, writers and artist to be willing to do this kind of weird and over the top stuff with pride and care.

Wow, I have never seen such a promising and fun start to deep dive into boring and frustrating territory in just two episodes..

Normally I wouldn't write a review if I don't finish the show but this was such a huge shock and disappointment I couldn't even believe it myself.

There's so much to praise; Music (Intro is enough on its own to make you fall in love with this colorful show) and art design is just superb and yet story direction goes downhill after episode 2 and it treats its own characters like stupid that' was enough to drive me crazy.

This show is like falling in love.. Before you say " Well, that's an over exaggeration " Let me show you the truth. You know the feeling when you're enjoying a new show so immensely you wish it never ends and when you think about its ending and living without it you feel your chest tightness.. For me, that's an amazing feeling just like falling in love with someone. It doesn't matter if its a medium or human being if it can make you feel such a pure emotions its amazing nonetheless. This show is just like that.. First season is the ... hook that will catch you and the second season is the punch. I hope you'll like it as much as I did. Enjoy the Show.

Early episodes were really good since its true to the manga, but when show tried to create its own path it was moslty “ meh “ Don't get me wrong this is a good ass anime. I laughed, cried and cheered for Tatsumi and his friends, maybe this is the effect of reading the manga first but I didn't like the choices they made when they were creating their own path. In the end it was cool to see my favorite characters animated but last episodes were really rough to watch ( expect one scene in the last episode, you’ll know when you see it, ... let's just say 2 lovers in an icicle) which made me “ awwwww “ In conclusion if you read and liked the Manga watch it with low expectations if you didn't read the manga hey you're super lucky! You can watch the anime first, then read the manga and experience the akame ga kill two different times.

I wouldn't describe myself as a manga reader. In fact the only ones I've ever read was naruto and attack on titan ( Read them because I was tired of waiting for the anime episodes). So akame ga kill was the first manga I chose to read seriously and i couldn't have made a better choice (I may have even chosen the best).
I finished 15 chapters in 3 days, my eyes was swollen from crying while I was reading the last chapter.
Everything started with a typical manga/anime main character ( Passionate, never changing happy-go-lucky guy with a dream ) So I thought to myself ... “ Ahh i see, this is gonna be your typical main character gaining strength and power with time to claim his dream type of manga. OH BOY WAS İ WRONG. With every chapter you witness the change on main character while life beats him down. How he loses his innocence, joy and hope with every lost and struggle. While witnessing real human evil, can you stay the same ? Can you hold on to your soul ? This magnificent manga made by a writer and illustrator who does their best to show us that losses drills holes in our soul. Constant struggle against life can slowly numb and even kill your soul.

Definitely recommend. Tatsumi, Akame, Esdeath, Mine, Chelsea, Susano. These are the names i will not forget for a long time.
I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this manga and thank you for creating such a beautiful story.

I can't wait to start anime !
