History WMG / AkameGaKill

* Not in the anime.
** And neither in the manga, when he is even brainwashed by the Minister to kill the rebels more efficiently.

** And neither in the manga, [[spoiler: when he is even brainwashed by the Minister to kill the rebels more efficiently.]]

* Jossed: [[spoiler:Lubbock was killed by Izou in the manga during his escape attempts]]

* Confirmed in the anime version. [[spoiler: Confirmed in the manga too.]].

[[WMG: In the end of the anime, [[spoiler: Esdeath and likely the remaining Jaegers will perform a full HeelFaceTurn.]]]]
Because of Esdeath's great love for Tatsumi, this becomes a soft spot for her. She also will never change unless she loses in some way. [[spoiler:Now that Tatsumi is added to the body count, this will not go well for her.]]

* [[spoiler:Jossed. At least in the animé, his face was pummeled into a pulp by Leone ''without'' her Imperial Arm.]]
** [[spoiler: Jossed in the manga too. Even when he is submitted to a long and brutal torture, the narration mentions he eventually died from his wounds.]]

When Tatsumi, the main focus of the story, [[spoiler:forced Incursio to evolve, one of his eyes became red as a result of Tatsumi's body slowly merging with the teigu]]. The other red-eyed protagonist, Akame barely receives any focus aside of being a central member of Night Raid, and while she is important in the anime and manga, she is not as prominent as Tatsumi.

* More or less true, [[spoiler: considering he instaled the Purgue Mode in the Ultimate Teigu thanks to Dorothea's research. He also reveals to be in possesion of a Teigu, but it's the same Teigu he had in the anime, just with a different design.]]

[[WMG: The final battle in the manga will be [[spoiler: Murasame!Akame (possessed) vs Incursio!Tatsumi (consumed)]]]]
This is seemly Jossed as Akame seemly kills [[spoiler: Incursio!Tatsumi before finishing her fight with Esdeath]] in chapter 76.

[[WMG: Akame's battle with Zank foreshadowed her [[spoiler: losing her humanity to Murasame and killing Kurome]]]]
At first glance Zank seemed like another quirky minor villain meant to demonstrate the corruption of The Empire like Aria and Ogre. However, one interpretation of his character could be that he is a representation of what Akame is afraid of becoming. Both characters come from not so different backgrounds as they both were mentally stricken by the work The Empire put them into. Akame developed her stoic demeanor as a result of [[spoiler: her allies in the Elite Seven (an assassination squad created by The Empire) dying]] while Zank was driven mad by the insane amount of executions Prime Minister Honest ordered which led to him going on murderous rampages. In a way Zank metaphorically "lost his humanity" after going insane and during Akame's battle with him called her out on being similar. He tried to argue that him killing random civilians was no different from her murder of countless targets as both a member of the Elite Seven and Night Raid. There's also the fact that during their battle Zank took on the form of [[spoiler: Kurome]] as his Teigu allowed him to take on the form of the person his opponent values the most. Chapter 64 of the manga reveals that Akame can activate her trump card if she discards her humanity and the manga has now started Akame and Kurome's duel with each other. It is very likely that Akame will give up on her humanity and become possessed by Murasame after [[spoiler: killing Kurome]]. Akame's battle with Zank foreshadowed this by having her opponent take on the form of [[spoiler: Kurome]] as well as having her opponent be a reflection of what she fears becoming if she allowed her endless bloodshed to take over and give up on her remaining humanity. Lastly, similar to how Zank thanked Akame for [[spoiler: killing him at the end of their battle]], Akame wants Tatsumi to [[spoiler: kill her if she becomes consumed by Murasame]] bringing up the possibility that Akame remembers how senselessly violent Zank was and wants to prevent herself from becoming like him.

* Jossed.[[spoiler: Kurome was able to survive her battle with Akame, thanks to Wave, and Akame doesn't use her trump card during that fight]]. However, the [[spoiler: "losing her humanity" part might still come true, but during a different battle]].

* '''Absorbdex''': As we saw with Dorothea [[spoiler: she was able to use this Teigu to maintain her youth]] by sucking the blood out of other people. Dorothea believed that she could use this Teigu to make herself immortal so in theory if used enough it could prolong your life indefinitely. However the drawback with this one is that it requires the existence of other people in order to be used to its fullest effect, and eventually it would result in the death of everyone else in the world thus meaning its impossible for this Teigu to achieve immortality.
* '''Susanoo''': This is the closest the First Emperor came to achieving immortality through Teigu. Had it not been for [[spoiler: his core]] Susanoo would have been immortal himself. As we saw Susanoo managed to live for 1000 years without dying of any natural causes and as long as [[spoiler: no one tries to destroy his core]] he could have lived forever as far as we're concerned. Similarly Coro, another organic Teigu followed the same principles. Considering how Teigu are weapons first their [[spoiler: cores]] were most likely made as a way to balance them out, but the fact that they are biologically immortal and cannot be killed otherwise shows that the First Emperor came close to finding some means to create immortality but maybe something about their creation couldn't have been replicated with humans.

* A few aspects of a Akame ga Kill! are remnants of its origins as a visual novel. This includes the attractive character designs for the female characters, Esdeath and a majority of the female cast having crushes on Tatsumi, the fact that a majority of Night Raid is females, and [[spoiler: Mine ultimately being the one who ends up in a relationship with Tatsumi]]. The major character deaths were most likely a carryover of a mechanic from the visual novel in which depending on the player's decisions some characters would live while others would die in certain routes. There would have also most likely been a normal visual novel mechanic of allowing the player character to have romantic relationships with the other characters. All of these are factors that would be more appealing to an adult visual novel rather than a battle shounen manga which may indicate that when Takahiro was offered the opportunity to make Akame ga Kill! a manga he probably wanted it to be a seinen.

Let's face it, there is just too many cases of DoomMagnet‎, NiceJobBreakingItHero, and evidence of a CartwrightCurse linking back to this guy to be a coincidence. Sure he mean well, but it seems that anyone who starts becoming close to him usually get some form of misfortune shortly afterwards. Why else would seasoned assassins, that have been going their jobs for years, are killed off shortly after spending a couple weeks, or even days, after meeting Tatsumi. It's possible that Tatsumi's village elder knew about this and had him sent away to a corrupted capital in an attempt to restore fortune to the village, and bring misfortune to the capital. In anime, it's only after [[spoiler: Tatsumi's death]] did things slowly started to get better, [[spoiler: the Empire is defeated and Tatsumi's village is given money for his deeds]]. Futhermore, the reason why both [[spoiler: Leone and Esdeath]] were killed after his [[spoiler: death]] was because they were the only two characters left that were attracted to Tatsumi, so his CartwrightCurse wouldn't allow them to live.

** Jossed. [[spoiler: Honest is finally killed by the rebel army after being wounded by Leone. Najenda's participation in his demise is not implied either.]]

* In chapter 76, the rebellion's Perfector wielding doctor, goes on to wonder if all Teigu-user will slowly transform to danger beasts after extended use and even states that Leone would have been at a greater risk of suffer this side effect than the already transformed [[spoiler: Tatsumi]]. While this seem like a BigLippedAlligatorMoment, it actually could be foreshadowing that Leone was unknowingly suffering from this side effect and possible attained a HealingFactor without her teigu.
** Jossed. [[spoiler: While Leone indeed merges with Lionelle and manages to survive long enough to beat Honest and deliver him to the rebels, she still dies from her wounds like in the anime.]]

[[WMG:Tatsumi and Mine [[spoiler:had their baby before Tatsumi was kidnapped]]]]
* With Tatsumi [[spoiler:staying a dragon for the rest of his life]], there's no plausible way that [[spoiler:he could ever procreate]]. However, there's a flashback in Chapter 50 where Mine asks Tatsumi about when he was on the island with Esdeath, and if [[spoiler:she did anything perverted to him]]. The flashback ends with Mine promising [[spoiler:to make Tatsumi forget what happened]], with Tatsumi fully realizing his feelings for her. If would make sense that [[spoiler:they did it at that point]], rather than after [[spoiler:Tatsumi's transformation]].

* Jossed: [[spoiler:Lubbock was killed during his escape attempts]]

[[WMG: During the first meeting of wild hunt, Champ tried to have his way with Dorothea.]]

** After all, in the world of Akame Ga Kill!, it could go either way…

* As shown in the attack of episode 3/ chapter 2, when that girl gets on the wrong side of Night Raid and cornered, she is killed, not recruited or sent to the Revolutionary Army HQ. My Theory: Sayo and Ieyasu found Night Raid first. Both are heavily wounded in their first few missions, and Sayo dies shortly after. To pay their sacrifice back, Najenda sends Leone out to find Tatsumi, put him in a desperate situation, then a group of sympathizers who are willing to die for the revolution sets up the stage.

* There are not anyone inside the manor except the family of three and the guards. No handymen or maids, who could have tipped Night Raid if the guards are collaborators? It's also very convenient that no other witnesses are around at the night when they come.
* Everyone available in Night Raid appeared on the scene despite the handful of people at the manor can hardly fight at all. Much more like a show of force.

** And neither in the manga,[[spoiler: when he is even brainwashed by the Minister to kill the rebels more efficiently.]]

[[WMG: Was Sheele’s former friend the one who told her ex’s friends about what happened?]]

*** Possibly a mistranslation of "having kid after they're married", meaning the kid she was carrying.

** Slight problem, the thing in question was plural, not singular.

* [[spoiler:Jossed. At least in the animé, his face was pummeled into a pulp by Leone ''without'' her Imperial Arms.]]

** Seemingly confirmed by Akame and Najenda that this was indeed the case.

* Confirmed in the anime version. Hanging in the manga.

* 2 After just receiving the news of his homes horrid fate. Tatsumi in his heartbroken rage swears on his unassailable fury to killing Esdeath, honest and eradicating the corrupt empire that took everything from him.

* With Tatsumi [[spoiler:staying a dragon for the rest of his life]], there's no plausible way that [[spoiler:he could ever procreate]].
