Akame Ga Kill

[Satoshi Ookami]

Anime and manga differs?

From now on.
They want anime original ending or something...

 

[TwilightBlade]

I was not ready for that ending this week.

They jumped past many chapters, including the major fight vs Esdeath and as well as the later Tatsumi x Mine developing scenes. The anime is currently at present manga chapter. I don't mind it.

Anime and manga differs? I thought they're going for a on-point adaptation! Could you manga readers fill me in on the details as to how much they're deviating? With minimum spoilers, ofc.

I've read up to the newest chapter. I haven't really watched the anime, because I wanted to watch it when it finished because I liked the manga. So I've been only reading discussion threads on Reddit. So as far as I know they jumped from 30-something chapter to the 52nd chapter. Also as far as I know they missed an important fight including Esdeath(which revealed a really strong power) also pretty much missed a whole arc(Which had new villians and character development to some characters)

They will most likely go full FMA with an anime original ending.

 

[Mana1]

Oh no.

Episode 21:

Spoiler:

Susanoo AND Mine? What are you trying to do to me! ;-;

I wish they had spent slightly longer elaborating with the Tatsumi/Mine relationship. It seemed to go from hate to love to death far too quickly to have any impact. Nevertheless... I like the set up we now have - assuming Tatsumi will now want revenge (/will fight for) Mine and take down Esdeath himself.

Looks like we get a sister battle next week. Assuming Kurome dies, Wave and the angel guy (we haven't seen much of him, have we?) are left before big boss.

Also. Yeah. They skipped Lubbock's

Spoiler:

castration

and all. I guess it was too controversial for TV.

But the anime interpretation is good in its own right.

I think you wanted to say was good. ;)

No? When referring to literature, it is standard to use the present tense.

 

[DJTiki]

Eh, I get that this was vastly different from how the Manga did it, outside of a few things and how the deaths were spaced, but I don't mind it. This is Episode 21 and there are 24 episodes planned. I can see how they need to wrap it up. :)

 

[Sheep]

Just saw 21.

Spoiler:

Did Mine really die here? So they jumped 20 or so chapters and even went beyond the latest chapter in the manga. Wonder if the manga will have a similar conclusion but I'm really upset because Mine. :( -wah-

 

[destinedjagold]

Just recently got introduced to this animé by my youngest bro (he's such an animé freak :P). He mentioned something about the animé that I'll always keep in mind: never grow attached to any of the characters, because they'll die sooner or later. >.>

Ep21:

Spoiler:

OMG Mine is dead! D: noooooooooooooooooooo!!!1! ;(

 

[Akiba]

Lol Psycho Pass 2            

 

[Aslan]

So I finally caught up with the last few episodes of AGK after kinda slacking off in the past few weeks and...

Spoiler:

I haven't read the manga but holy crap, the deaths. I saw Lubbock's coming since my friend spoiled it but Mine's and Suzanoo's were really unexpected. I didn't care that much about Seryu's though. :(

Tatsumi x Mine would of been awesome to see more of, I agree! But I guess things don't work out as planned. ;__;

Anyway the final fight's gonna be interesting with these deaths happening all over the place. As for Akame vs Kurome, I'm gonna go with Akame winning because well... she's Akame. Bias towards the character who's in the title of the series.

I highly doubt the mangaka would copy story elements from the anime. Anime is almost always made to advertise the source material. They probably decided to make an anime original ending because they want to end the series. This move by the studio probably indicates that most likely there won't be a season 2.

 

[Mana1]

Episode 22!

Spoiler:

Unfortunately, most of this episode was predictable. I guess it's the slightly-calm episode before the chaotic finale. Kurome was clearly not going to win, and sadly I don't think her ending meant much. I'd of liked a glimmer of understanding or forgiveness somewhere.

This episode has made me more sure that Wave will somehow assist. He won't join Night Raid, but I'll be expecting a small gesture (letting them into the Capital / past him) sometime soon. I wouldn't be surprised if it is the Emperor's devastating of the city which finally pushes him over to NR's side.

 

[Strom Thunder]

I love AGK !! One of the favs ! the action are good ! and I really love fantasy types ! I like tatsumi too !

 

[derozio]

Anime original, bleh. Would've preferred had they followed the manga and stopped for a second season. :<

That said, though, I can't really say I was too affected by that character death. :p I have yet to watch episode 22 though - which I'll be doing and reporting my impressions of in a while.

 

[Strom Thunder]

Agreed in some matters, Never mind that, I've only watched 5 or some episodes. I am not updated with details either. But I do know some new news up to episode 25 or something I guess So what happens after she decides to search and find Night Raid ? And what happened after her mind Flows back to orge? I she seeing her teacher or something as I remember. I wish can get the next episode ;~;

 

[Altairis]

Kind of a shame that they're not going to be continuing for a second season and they're following an anime-original ending. I just started to get into the show, and now it's going to be stopping :(
