So glad akame ga kill volume one 1 is finally out U.S one of the favorite manga's to read there's a reason why this is rated #1 in its category on all though i don't know why its under mystery.. if you guys are finding out about this for the first time definitely give it a shot. Cant wait for the other volumes to release
I love this manga and the anime I wish the author makes more volumes in the future. This manga and anime is in my top three I love the art in the book and the story it keeps you on your feet on who survived or dies.
There are a fair number of manga and their related anime that depict normal people thrown into abnormal or even horrific scenarios (e.g. High School of the Dead) and we the reader or viewer are left watching the ways these contort the protagonists and antagonists as they struggle to cope inside a new set of life governing rules. What really has intrigued me about Akame ga KILL is that it takes a cast, both protagonists and antagonists who by most modern societal definitions are deviants (professional or hobbyist killers) and reveals they ways in which they try to recover or engage in some mundane, everyday activities most of us take for granted like building and maintaining a network of friends, making light of life's circumstances and others. Akame ga KILL indeed has great action sequences and interesting powers/abilities.. but what takes this series one step further for me are the human side of the cast and how much more brutal that makes plot developments.
Tatsumi dreams of joining the Capital’s garrison with his friends and earning the money needed to save their country village. But there are worse things than just monsters in the Capital…Akame ga Kill doesn’t take long to crank up the tension and stakes in this introductory volume. It’s dark and gruesome in its depiction of the horrible realities faced by the general population and the root cause of it all, as well as the extreme measures being used to fight back. The core characters are doing bad things for good reasons, but are fully conscious of it and have no illusions about being righteous. This self-awareness is a good sign for future thematic depth of plot and characters.There is a large cast and a lot to establish, so at the moment several characters are a bit one-note, and the violence both in premise and implementation of the story could drive some readers away. The art, while decent overall, is quite dark and sometimes muddled, making the action scenes hard to follow.However despite the small flaws I am intrigued with the general setup as well as Night Raid and their mission. I can see myself continuing with this if I get a chance.
Akame ga KILL made me feel emotions that I have never felt so deeply before. Tatsumi a villager gets a real feel of how twisted reality can get on his adventure to search for his friends in the nations capital. I won't spoil, so I will leave it at here, but I got to say the artwork, deaths, and abilities of the characters have me pumped up and i'm ready for some more! I'm glad to support this series and i'm interested in buying future volumes. I appreciate that there are other people who found and enjoy Akame ga KILL, enjoy!Remember: Volume 2 comes out in April 21,2015 and Volume 3 comes out in July 21, 2015.( http://www..com/Akame-ga-KILL-Vol-2/dp/0316340022/ref=pd_sim_b_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0Z8BY3H4HJW6YMT5DBS7 )( http://www..com/Akame-ga-KILL-Vol-3/dp/0316340049/ref=pd_sim_b_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0Z8BY3H4HJW6YMT5DBS7 )
This story talks about a boy coming from a small village with his 2 friends who were aiming to make it big in the big city. While in the way, his 2 friends get killed by the warriors of the big city as he didn't know that people in the city were evil and heartless. That's when he finds this squad who kill these bad people. That's why he joins for the revenge for his friends, and also to bring justice to the mistreated people in the city.I find this manga really good, the art is very nice but more importantly the story material is amazing. I want to get all volumes of this series!
Akame ga Kill is a shonen/seinen manga about a country boy who goes to the capital of his country to make money and save his village from starvation. When he gets there, he discovers that the capital isn't the utopia he thought, and rather than joining the military, he joins Night Raid, a group of feared assassins.Akame ga Kill is a great read and I'd highly suggest it to anyone that likes darker manga. The only thing I don't like about it is that it takes so long for them to release official versions in English.
The anime was an amazing experience, that's why I decides to buy the manga. With the manga I have feeling that I didn't have with the anime. Ig you loved Akame ha KILL!'s anime, you would love the manga. If you're a new reader of Akame ga KILL!'s series, give ir a chance! Has a lot of a manga and is one of the coolest stories I has read and watch.
