Poor Raba, always has to kill the pretty ones.

Also this is kinda a little detail I skipped while reading the manga but noticed it now while watching the anime. So the four rakshasa demons said they dont need/use teigus and that they got their abilities because they grew up tasting the broth of the lake kraken that lives in the lake behind their temple, but doesn't that technically count as a teigu since it was something from a danger beast? Cause I'm pretty sure we can apply the same rule from esdese teigu here.

No it doesn't.

A Teigu technically has to choose its user so it would need to be compatible. Esdeath's Teigu chose her and only her at the time.

A Teigu can't be simultaneously used by four people at once.

Thought her ability was really cool. Its such a damn shame. It was just so brutal :(

Lubbock is really a badass. I always thought he was lame but the last episode changed my opinion of him.

Lubba was too op this eps. Usually means death flag. Rip.


And sacred rituals huh? Damn it guard why did you intrude.

This was about as fillerish as Akame ga Kill! episodes can get. Still enjoyable, though.

As dumb and foolish as Chelsea was to run off and target Kurome all by herself (why join up with a team only to run off on your own and do something reckless), she probably deserved a better fate than having her fingers shot off, her arm sliced off, her head decapitated and hung on a spike, her body dissected by Esdeath and the remains of her corpse fed to Seryu's Koro.

At least the enemy isn't using the remnants of Gaea Foundation against Night Raid... not that finding someone compatible with it is an easy task.

Another cute girl bites the dust

Tossed into the same grave with big ear girl. RIP.
Poor Lubbock. Seems like all of these girls he's killing would have put out for him, too.
Mez even had a natural skill that would have made her a demon in the sack.

And yet he remains vigilant in hopes that his childhood crush, Najenda, will finally acknowledge him. Perhaps... someday...

I have to give the show its due, the Lubba fights this week were quality shonen. For all the dumb shit this show does, it can knock some things out of the park from time to time.

dont read the manga, but in this genre, when a characfer shows all their cards, usually means they will be killed or written off soon.

rip bayonettaman.
 
Are we getting an anime original ending? Oh god the way this episode played out with the assault on Bolrick happening at the same time as the battle against Seryu and then next week we're randomly jumping ahead to Kill the Carnage which is like 20 chapters from where the manga currently is :|

Night Raid's Recruiting at Akame ga Kill Exhibit
Akame%20ga%20Kill%20exhibit

Akame ga Kill! was last season's go-to show for gorehounds although now it has serious competition from Parasyte and Terraformars. So take your pick: do you want a blood-splattered past, present or future? Of course, Akame offers more character coupling options than the other titles and Akihabara GAMERS has the full cast on display to fuel your slash fiction.

Now that the show has a full season under its belt the producers are ready to release a slew of still frames and designs to the public. If you ever wanted a better look at Teigu mechanics, here's your chance. Though I still have no idea how Koro is supposed to work.
Akame%20ga%20Kill%20art%20by%20Maybe

Artists from Gangan Joker, Akame ga Kill!'s parent publication, drew up their support. I recognize Maybe (Dusk Maiden of Amnesia) and Midori Endo (Gugure! Kokkuri-san). How many manga-ka can you spot?
Akama%20ga%20Kill%20character%20popularity

The fans have spoken: Everyone's in love with Esdeath! Though you shouldn't get too attached to any one character. Fate catches up to all of us at some point, though some have a more gruesome time of it than others. At least the TV broadcast has the decency to censor the gore and lessen the blow. Say your good-byes during the opening credits--you might not get another chance.

I was raising an eyebrown when the fight between night raid and mine was happening at the same time, then the switch to original anime ending out of nowhere :u, thou to be honest I am totally ok with that

because they could use some of the skipped events for the last few chapters, also kind of relieved that
Wild Hunt
probably won't appear, didn't like most of their arc, too edgy for the sake of being edgy

let's see how it turns out

It really feels like they're skipping to Syura's part and Kill the Carnage for no real reason other then "oh hey we showed this character and we better resolve him because we're not going to get a second season" which is just all around shitty : /

Wish they actually show like some good guys That work in the Capitol. Everyone is a comic villain makes it hard to take any of this seriously.

I'm not sure we're supposed to take any of this seriously.
And Wave seems like a decent enough guy.
Dude's going to be depressed about another of his comrades dying.

The Jaegers seem awfully diminished in strength right about now. Esdeath's going to need to recruit some more lackeys or step up and do some fighting herself when she's not showing off for Tatsumi.

WHOOA, there, alright then.

Original anime ending it is. They didn't even try to explain how everyone got out of the church, haha.

Didn't like what they did to
Syura's and Lubbock's deaths,
but at least I'm looking forward to seeing what the hell they'll come up with for the final episodes.

So what does tatsumi 's armor even do?

Reminds me of ichigo's bankai that is fucking useless when other people move faster than him.

how is the manga atm?

Kinda liked the show more when it was just brutally killing cartoonishly evil aristocrats instead of these just 1v1 shounen fights.

I mean im fine with fights but you gotta space stuff out pad stuff with other content, etc.
