Akame ga KILL!



Akame ga KILL! a great action battle anime from 2014. One of the best anime produced by White Fox. Akame ga KILL! the story originated from its manga series. So far this is one of the best adaptations from White Fox production made. Akame ga KILL! consists of 24 episodes, runs 24 minutes per episode and aired from July 7 2014 to December 15 2014. White Fox produces popular titles and mostly on the adaptation side like Hataraku Maou-sama!, Goblin Slayer, Steins;Gate and Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu. It's one of the strong points of White Fox knows what story to adapt and becomes a trend. The opening song “Skyreach” performed by Sora Amamiya and “LIAR MASK'' performed by Rika Mayama.The closing song “Konna Sekai, Shiritakunakatta” performed by Miku Sawai and “Tsuki Akari” performed by Sora Amamiya. 


Akame ga KILL! is a story of Night Raid an assassination branch of the Revolution Army that wants to overthrow Prime Minister Honest leadership because of the greed for power and taking up the advantage of the child emperor inexperience. Without a strong leader the nation suffers from poverty, conflict and devastation of the rest of the nation. Night Raid members are all experienced killers; they know the consequences that they will face after they are done eliminating everyone who stands in the Revolution Army. 

Tatsumi is the newest member of the Night Raid, a naive boy from a far remote village who starts his journey to help his hometown. Tatsumi joined the Night Raid because of their ideals and resolve to end the greed in power. As Tatsumi joins the Night Raid it starts the fight against the Empire facing the powerful weapons and enemy assassins, challenges his own morals and values and ultimately what truly means to be an assassin with a cause. Tatsumi is mentored by Bulat, not just because they are the few guy members of the Night Raid but also being a big brother for him and guiding him to be stronger and keeping still his values while being an assassin. 


In terms of battle animation White Fox did a good job in Akame ga KILL! a close fight battle scene and some magical effects and weapons and the assassin moves fast pace and goes for instant kill. It amazes me a lot in the fight scenes and some well explained weapons that they used. Sorry for the amazement but I really enjoy fight scenes and always looking how they deliver it decently and give them a pass level because it’s not too stiff movement but a bit smooth to look and how clean cut some enemy spawns. By doing a good audio effect and clash timing. 


For the story flow and because it's a manga adaptation, I find a good story that I never read at all and makes me decide to read the manga afterwards. It’s not confusing to start at the anime but seeing the difference for it something tells that the manga is great at all, but the animation and like the battle scenes they did are fair enough to compare to the manga itself. So far reading or watching first did not give me a problem as long as you look at the whole story and unique story for one of a kind of revolution. 


Akame ga KILL! deserves a decent recommendation because the story itself is something you don’t see on anime series. The action with a drama because of kill this and that, a bit of mixed emotion ride for this story, trying not to tell who and when because there some people who don’t want to be spoiled but looking for an anime recommendation to watch Akame ga KILL! have it a bit of fantasy because of the weapons they have, lot of action and a good drama for a story of a lot of sacrifice for a better living for the weak and stop the greed of power.
