Woah i was expecting to see Bulat getting fatally wounded or at most killed, but Tatsumi getting the Incursio armour O.O
So awesome.. and that strike! SMACK into the wall!. glad he is dead because jesus was that kid ugly, while using his special imperial ability.

Jeez, Bulat was one of my favorites.. RIP </3

Also, glad Kurome was introduced. I'm not a big fan of this anime still but it's picking up and the action is nice.

See, this is better handling of a dramatic death. And Bulat's death doesn't have the same impact when it's not overdramatized for 5 minutes now is it? Despite him havng stronger characterization and facing his past.

Facepalms: Incursio "compatibility" (omg so cool=it's yours), the general idolizing Esdesu for no rhyme or reason.

Nitpicking the obviously awful kid villain and the presentation of Kurome doesn't make her any more sympathetic.

4/5 For half decent, but stilted action and SOME semblance of being an OK shounen.

Fun episode to watch, I did enjoy the fight quite a bit..

So now Incursio is officially Tatsumi's imperial arms? At least he got a power up now, they're going to keep fighting crazy ass people in the future so he can't always rely on other night raiders to help him out of a tight spot..

Overall I think this series has been quite fun to watch every week. I can't wait for Esdeath to eventualy interract with night raid members, it seems she at least will meet tatsumi next week? I wonder if the captain chick of nightraid will be the one who will have to defeat Esdeath in the end..

Is that chick akame's sister or something? Or just someone she worked with in the past? hmm (Not a manga reader here)

All night raid combined can't defeat esdeath.Dead serious .That' how powerful she is and there's another Empire General on par with Esdeath.
Night raid Zero chance to win really.

Yeah she's her sister if you didn't read Her say "Sister" Lol.

i really appreciate the zeal of the story, killing off supporting characters so quickly, especially ones held dear to the MC. it really magnifies the concepts behind the story, i think.

Ok...
So.......what the hell!! >:O

Yet another Night Raid member dies?! :( No~! Bulat~! You were so cool....
Oh well, Assassins are the class that dies the most, since there job is dangerous and stuff. o-o
But, it looks like his Imperial Arm has taken a new form to fuse with Tatsumi, and that was pretty cool. :3 The way Tatsumi killed Nyauh~! xD "killed by Tatsumi in one blow after activating Incursio." So cool! XD

Oh, that ending....Akame's sister? o-o Oh no.....this is bad...
So, her, Esdeath......oh my....
This is turning out to be so good! But, in terms of new and powerful enemies.....BAD! D:

IDK about this episode, though I'm sad that Bulat was gone, it just felt the execution and the emotional drama to it felt out of place, and tbh I wasn't feeling the drama into it. Though another is that, I wish I can see his childhood days and why was he enlisted to join forces with the emperor. Although I think I skipped information from the previous episodes about his past or something.

Well aside from that, Bulat and Tatsumi are true bros, and that Tatsumi will never forget him. Kurome is coming to see her sister, it's going to be an unpleasant reunion. Tatsumi Incursio was so freaking epic tbh.

The development is solely on Tatsumi and the other characters are already developed in their Backgrounds.They are professional assassin and Pretty much they already experienced every kind of development there is.
If you're hell bent on development too bad for you This anime isn't for ya.
Akame ga kiru is just moving forward and there's no Plot armor for almost anyone in Night raid..Its intense because pretty much can anyone can die in their Fights with the empire and you want to see it to the end.

yea I hope they dont skip that scene honestly, its not as disturbing as the torture scene
that scene is pretty important to her character and give some more backstory

This. If it was the other way round there would be people complaining about slow pacing or plot armor, you can't please everyone. I would have liked to see him in a few more eps simply because he was my favorite but there really wasn't much more to tell, we learned everything that we needed to know about Bulat, unless the studio wanted to tell his whole life story since birth in a series of flashback episodes.

Episode 8 strikes again.

Bulat was Kamina as fuck, he even basically told Tatsumi to grit those teeth! Let's hope Tatsumi can be as much of a cool guy in the end as Simon, now that the torch has been passed.

trying not to spoil here

in the manga, tatsumi can barely use the invisibility for more than a few seconds. after we see the formation of the jaegers(YAY ESDEATH) we get to see my all time favourite part from the manga. the 2 guys working out, with Akame calling leone fat :')


but yeah, awesome episode, RIP bro, but it had to be done i guess.

the only problem was that River/Liver joined esdeath for a real crappy reason. i mean, sure he was still a soldier, but come on.


and Kurome's design/voice look really well done. lets hope they continue that with the rest of the 6

5/5

I don't even like this show, but I agree with this. It doesn't matter how many characters they kill or develop, especially obviously minor ones like most of Night Raid. But a death a week is far too formulaic and boring; I'm hoping they abandon that trend before it sets.

after a certain point in the Manga, they seem to stop killing of Night Raid as fast as they were, but its good, because i read/watch every ep on the edge of my bed wondering if anyones going to kick the bucket. IMO thats the sign of a good anime/Manga, because its so intense and you get caught up with it.

i guess about around ep 15-17 will be a new side if they follow the same formula that they have been

Why are you still here discussing lmao.
Also in the manga It didn't seem like Death a week since There were a lot happening before bro died and Its just the Anime taking matters into their own hands and Removing a Few chapters here and there.
But Anyway there won't be any Deaths after Bro's death for a While :l I can give you that.

Differing opinions is what generates discussion, but I just came here to leave my thoughts on the prospects of this show. "I liked this episode" "I love this episode" "Me too" is boring and not a discussion, and composes 90% of these threads. There's also the off chance that the next few episodes may change my mind. My point was, the majority of Night Raid was introduced to be kill off, so I don't want them to do so as an asinine routine.

Even though I read the manga beforehand I still wasnt ready for bulat's death. He's probably my favorite night raid member(or the most bearable one there at least). It'd be nice for tatsumi to actually get his own new imperial arms without inheriting bro's old one but still looks cool I guess...

At least the episodes to come will seem less formulaic than the ones so far.

Liked the episode for what it was worth. It's slowly getting better in my opinion and is finally dropping the playfulness that drove me up the wall. I really detest the comedy/fan-service in AgK, so the last couple episodes have been somewhat more refreshing in that regard.

@Pencil. It's hard to say this without spoiling anything, but I can assure you that your last sentence in relation to them killing off almost all of Night Raid isn't exactly the case. I'd rather not explain. As you said, the next few episodes might change your mind, and I'll leave it at that.

Bulat dead makes for many sad days. I'm curious as to how Tatsumi will fight with incursio. It has the exact same design as when Bulat wore it and it would just be weird to see him fighting like that, kinda wish that he would get his own style/imperial arms or something.
