Akame #23 — Pew Pew Pew

December 7th, 2014

  

Lasers! Explosions! Loud noises!

Impressions:

I really really hope he’s actually dead. It would make next week’s apparently finale of “They kung fu fight for no reason,” so very, very moronically appropriate. I somewhat doubt that’s the sentiment they were going for, but after another episode of asspull power up after asspull power up and that’s when they weren’t just sure whether the lasers were capable of nuking the landscape or simply being slapped aside, and flashbacks of dead people blathering on, I’ve run out of anything for this show but inertia. Christ, he turns goddamned gold and grew wings because he released the darkness inside him. I think the crowning bit of stupidity may have been nearly the entire set of antagonists suddenly switching sides because they can’t stand to see innocent citizens die. Or maybe they just wanted to kill everyone and couldn’t stand that a giant golem shooting lasers at random places was taking all their murdering.

Next Episode:

Let us kung fu fight for no reason.

    My bet on “How will Aroduc discredit the animation quality?” was kinda right:
    [] “action was half-assed”
    [] “it was weirdly over-animated”
    [] “I know some of you people are into this weird way of animating things and are furiously touching yourselves over it but it’s certainly not my thing.”
    [x] don’t even mention it

    Good job, me. As for you, never change.

  • algorithm says:

    Oh my, actual budget animation.
    Oh my, competent action sequences.
    Oh my, Aroduc is still complaining.
    I hope you’re getting paid to rant about things.

  • The Phantom says:

    I am also wondering what purpose are they fighting for in the last episode. They will both die for no reason, not like this always made sense anyway.

    It looks like Akame triumph card is a suicide attack that will kill her anyway, so how about letting Esdeath win for a change? all she needs to do is freeze time -> Behead Akame, go Esdeath go.

  • Komatachia says:

    This episode pretty much sums up anything you ever wanted to know about Akame ga Kill… ahaha
