She also has a tattoo on her chest, which is the sign of her Teigu. She wore a general's apparel with long sleeves, a blue scarf on her neck, and high-heeled boots. She was voiced by Satomi Akesaka in the Japanese version of the anime, and by Christine Auten in the English dubbed version.Įsdeath was a slender and beautiful young woman with long light blue hair, and dark blue eyes. She has committed the second largest number of horrible atrocities of any member of the Empire, behind Prime Minister Honest himself. She is the archenemy of both Najenda and Tatsumi.Įsdeath was responsible for the deaths of millions of people in the north of the country and several other conflicts and war on account of the rebellion against the Empire. She also serves as the biggest physical threat of the series. She is a high-ranking general and the most dangerous warrior of the Empire, one of the most powerful Teigu users in the world and the leader of the Jaegers. Tatsumi, I wish that you had been beside me.Įsdeath (in Japanese: エスデス, Esudesu) is the secondary antagonist of the manga Akame ga Kill!, and the 2014 anime adaptation of the same name. ~ Esdeath's most famous quote, expressing her philosophy on "survival of the fittest". It's only natural for the weak to perish. It just means those people that died were too weak. The law of the world is survival of the fittest. For this I give it an 8/10, that could have easily been a 9 or even 10 for the reasons just mentioned.I don't understand the feelings of the weak. I recommend watching it because it does its job of carrying you away in a different world and making you live, for a little while, the lives of these people, in a world far away and far easier than ours. In the end the only problem with this anime is that it is a bit shallow, and it could have been really great if only it was spent some more time in the writing. Some things could have been done much better, like spending more time in developing some characters or making sure to describe the setting more deeply, and it I didn't like the fact that when someone dies, in the next episode they're almost forgotten and only mentioned casually when needed for the story. Nevertheless, when I think about it I still have sad/bitter feelings for some events that happened to some characters, and these after-feelings aren't often found in an anime. On the other hand, the sadness caused from the death of a main character is soon replaced by a sense of anger, because too many of them die, and you end up wondering whether it was necessary for the plot or just a cheap way to make you feel bad for the others. One of the things I liked the most was the fact that it isn't obvious whether a main character will die or survive, which makes the story less obvious. As I mentioned, the atmosphere is dark, but it has some funny moments (perhaps too many). The characters aren't deep but they are all different, and their backstory is explained, making it easier to become affectionate to them. It does a great job visually, and the music is also well suited, and it is perfect for those who seek an anime with adventure, fights, a tiny bit or romance and a slightly dark athmosphere. You just need to know that the society is corrupted and the rich take everything they want from the poor. The story goes around this group of people, their training and their missions, and it doesn't deeply describes the society, nor the setting, which are interesting. This anime tells the story of a young man that comes to the capital to make money and save his village, but instead joins a group of rebels that want to overthrow the government because it is too much corrupted.
