Akame ga Kiru! is one of the my favourite action manga. The fights are intense and the speeches are humorous. The story plot line of Akame ga Kiru! is placed in the setting of the medieval ages when people use physical arm combat attack instead of technological military attack; however, this manga defies   it all. You can almost see all kinds of weaponries, including swords, guns, and even claws. On the other hand, the story even makes it more interesting by using the involvements and connections of the characters.

The story started with a young lad named Tatsumi proven his beastieness by killing an Earth Dragon, and like many others he fantasizes himself to become famous in the Capital. Unfortunately, with his childishness he managed to get himself kicked out of the military enlist building and rubbed by a friendly thief. We for sure had a good laugh in the way how easy he screwed things up and got tricked.

Interesting Quote: "You'll learn a lot from your meeting with me, young lad!"

Latter on he was rescued by an extremely cute girl called Aria. With her cuteness and richness, she could probably seduce any man in the world. She was seemed as a kind hearted person in the Capital, and her parents were very friendly toward the visitors her brought in. On the following day, the guards mentioned the corruption and the massive assassination in capital. It kept Tatsumi on guard. With the foreshadowing,  we may even allude to something that might be happening in the following events.

During night on second day in the capital, the Night Raid, assassination group, showed up! With the attack of the right raid, Tatsumi was quickly overwhelmed; however, Tatsumi had proven his combat skill, and this attracted their attention!

After the the truth of Aria family's secret was revealed, Tatsumi found his old friends were captured and tortured to the edge of death. Tatsumi showed his determination to kill by killing Aria himself, and his true emotions to face the death of his old friend. Night Raid oversaw this occurance and decided to get Tatsumi into the assassination trade!
