![]() Our young schoolboy’s growing up! Pretty soon, he’ll have to change those sheets every morning. Whoa, but don’t blush too hard! Later that night, Tatsumi can’t help but dream about his aniki’s proud face. Nevertheless, Bulat pays our hero a compliment, so he blushes like a little schoolboy. Evil or not, you just killed a bunch of people. They just got done murdering a bunch of people. We have a body count that goes up exponentially every week!” It’s like, “No, we’re different from those other shounens. Honestly, because of all the blood and guts, the whole thing just seems childish. But where’s the gratuitous rain of blood? Oh, there it is. Why does it look like she got the most painful, agonizing death of the bunch, though? Let’s just kill them one-by-one with reckless abandon. Oh hey, generic assassins are attacking us. The anime just feels like showing off the various different abilities of the various different assassins all at once in a very lazy, perfunctory way. We’re not watching anything important here. When it’s Leone’s turn to show off, she says, “In my case, I simply turn into a beast and hit people.” That’s pretty much what this opening scene is all about. I’d just be wasting everyone’s time if I have to spell it out any further than that. On the other hand, Sheele is just a meganneko in a Chinese dress, cutting actual murderers and rapists in half with her scissors. Ryuuko eventually uses her giant scissors to cut through killer pieces of fabric and various red strings of fate. Everything about Kill la Kill is tiny bit eccentric and a tiny bit oddball. Yeah, I know, I know… so did Ryuuko in Kill la Kill, but it’s different. After all, Sheele fights with a pair of giant scissors. Hell, it’s not even the dumbest-looking thing here. I don’t think any further commentary is necessary. She calls her gun Pumpkin, and like the Atma Weapon of FF6 or something, it gets stronger when its wielder is in bigger trouble. This is how Mine attacks her opponents. And she still has time to make a smart-ass quip! Oh look, before the bad guys can even blink, Akame has disappeared, slit their throats, then reappeared behind them. But again, don’t make the mistake of thinking we’re the good guys! Naw man, we’re killers! Stone cold killers! ![]() So y’see, they’re just a bunch of murderous, rapey necrophiliacs! In fact, our heroes would be doing the world a service by mercilessly killing these fools. Make sure you don’t wound her too badly…” Shortie: “Seems we can have fun, even after we kill her. ![]() Oh, but don’t you worry! These assassins are evil too! I mean, despite the little, black happy face you might see on the sides of their hoodies, these are all evil rapists: But what are we even doing out here in the woods anyway? Well, it turns out some assassins may have sniffed out Night Raid’s location. Maybe even Akame ga Kill! realizes how dumb this running animation looks. Like a flame decal on a Mustang, this lets you run faster! Too bad it’s one of the bad guys doing the pose. The only things missing are the two arms sticking out behind their them. You know the anime won’t be any good when its good guys are running through the woods like a bunch of Naruto characters. Despite what you see in the screenshot above, I’ll have you know that Mine is a very hardcore assassin!
