Tatsumi died because he was weak.
That's all there is to it.
But what is this feeling?
It's General Esdeath!
She's the only one left.
Get her!
A pathetic kingdom like this...
Don't!
should be eradicated!
So you're Akame...
You've lost.
The empire has lost.
But my hunt continues.
Your hunt?
The war's over.
I'll move on to the next battlefield.
And if I don't find it, I'll simply create one.
For the sake of peace in the new world,
I can't let someone like you live.
I don't need your tedious speech.
If you want to stop me,
show me your strength!
Esdeath...
Just as I predicted, you're the last one standing in the way.
Akame, kill Esdeath!
Eliminate.
I'll crush you.
kuchihateru you ni moyuru tsuki
朽ち果てるように燃ゆる月
The moon burns, as if about to crumble,
akatsuki ni shizumiyuku
暁に沈みゆく
sinking into the dawn.
tsukurareta kao de sotto chikazuite
造られた仮面で そっと近付いて
With a face created for me, I draw closer,
shinjiru mono wo yami ni otosu
信じるモノを 闇に落とす
dropping believers into the darkness.
ito ni karamaru emono no you ni
糸に絡まる エモノのように
Like pray tied up in a web,
tada hitasura ni sora wo aogu
ただ ひたすらに 空を仰ぐ
I'm simply looking up to the sky.
kurikaesareru higeki bukimi ni warau ura no kao
繰り返される悲劇 不気味に笑う裏の顔
A tragedy put on repeat... a hidden face laughing ominously...
kore ijou nanihitotsu nakusanai you ni katana wo nuku
これ以上 何ひとつ 失くさないように刀を抜く
To keep from losing a single thing more, I'll draw this blade.
yami ni houmure yogoreta egao
闇に葬れ 汚れた笑顔
Smothered by darkness with a sullied smile,
yariba no nai ikari hanate
やり場のない怒り放て
I'll release this anger that has nowhere else to go.
doredake no chi to namida wo nagashitara
どれだけの血と涙を流したら
No matter how much blood and tears flow,
inoru you ni kirisaite
祈るように斬り裂いて
I'll cut through as if offering a prayer.
kyou mo akaku someageyo
今日もアカク染め上げよ
Another day of staining everything in red!
Freeze.
As expected of the infamous Akame.
This is fantastic!
Esdeath,
why continue to create and kill enemies?
What will be left in the end?
The winner.
That's just a butcher, standing on a mound of corpses.
Those words don't offend me in the least.
If you value your life, drop your sword and become my subordinate.
No.
If you cannot, you'll die.
That's how this world works, right?
You're wrong!
Everyone wants to live...
Everyone wanted to live...
Lives aren't meant to be trampled on!
I cannot comprehend what you're saying!
Pierce through.
What's wrong?
Is this all you have?
The weak have no right to stand before me.
Those without strength should not have hopes and dreams.
Lie down and die before me, like a pig should.
What do you think people are?
I have no interest in the weak.
Esdeath!
Oh?
You'll finally show me what you're made of.
So this is your trump card.
I've killed countless people...
Grief, sorrow, rage, resentment.
Murasame remembers...
all the lives I've taken.
I accept responsibility for all of them.
This is the turning point.
You are no longer human.
A trump card worthy of a demonic sword.
Even if this consumes me,
I'll defeat you.
Why, you...
How amusing.
This is indeed amusing!
This is worth the sacrifice of an arm.
Let's do this.
Let's fight each other to the death!
This form won't last much longer.
I must finish this...
with my next move!
You have my full attention...
Come.
Makahadoma!
This is the second time I've been forced to use my trump.
I applaud you.
This was fun.
An afterimage?
Where did you go?
Above?!
Eliminate.
How...
could you break through the Makahadoma?
Your trump card that took Susanoo's life...
I was waiting for you to use it.
That was part of your plan.
The afterimage you saw was your bloodlust.
I stabbed your inflated ideal of hunting.
Mission accomplished.
You really are interesting.
Where does such strength derive?
From all the lives for which I am responsible.
Those are what gave me strength.
You plan to continue being dragged down by others' souls?
That's right.
I cannot possibly understand.
However, a loss is a loss.
I suppose it is time to die.
Tatsumi...
Esdeath!
Tatsumi,
I wish that you had been beside me.
Those feelings you have for Tatsumi...
are exactly what you said you couldn't possibly understand.
Captain...
Rest in peace.
The wise are those who win in the end.
As long as I'm alive,
I can try again and again.
Found you.
I won't let a piece of crap like you escape.
Someone...
Isn't anyone there?
You're the one who avoided detection.
I need you to die now.
Don't come any closer.
What?
Huh?
Fool!
This is the power of my Teigu.
Concealing your trump card is critical.
Now, since you're guilty of scaring me, you get the death penalty.
Well, well...
I said this about the emperor, too,
but dealing with fools is tiring.
H-How do you have...
so much strength...
I grew up in the slums, so my body's tough.
You can't imagine what that's like, can you?
Even if you stop my Teigu,
my soul is stronger...
than whatever rotten thing you have for one!
Ah, it's finally over!
Night Raid's done, huh?
Yeah.
Goodbye, my friend.
Leone, you...
Don't give me that look.
I'll be able to see everyone now.
There... That's a nice smile.
See ya.
See you, Leone.
Cheers to the revolution!
I'm not gonna live in poverty anymore!
But if you keep messing around, you're just gonna stay poor.
Good point!
Hey, Leone...
Have a drink with us.
Hey, old man!
Get Leone a drink, too, will ya?
Come on, Leone...
Huh?
The guillotine, I see.
That's what must be done to set things straight.
Yes.
I failed as an emperor...
But I have one last task.
Yes.
If I cry now, I'd be a laughingstock.
I would at least like to die with honour.
Please build a peaceful kingdom without any more bloodshed.
You have my vow.
This will be the last drop of blood shed.
Kurome,
I'm going to do my best to protect the new kingdom's peace.
For your sake, as well.
And I shall do my best from within the government...
for everyone's future.
I wish you could give us some of your strength, Captain.
I wonder if she was able to meet Tatsumi.
I bet he's running away from her again...
Now, shall we go?
There is much to do.
It's more than we've ever gotten.
Thanks to Tatsumi and the others, no one else has starved...
Since there's a new kingdom,
maybe Tatsumi, Sayo, and Ieyasu will be coming back.
Yeah.
Our heroes are returning.
We'll welcome them home with an extravagant celebration.
People really are strong.
The city is already restoring itself.
Boss, are you all right?
Yeah.
My lifespan was merely shortened.
While I don't know how long I'll live...
I'll gladly use the rest of my life to help build the kingdom's foundation.
As a survivor, that's the best I can do.
I believe in you.
Do your best.
Are you going to leave, Akame?
Yeah.
You can place all the Revolutionary Army's wrongdoings on me.
I'm sorry.
That's a difficult role.
Your role in helping build the new kingdom is far more difficult.
There was a lot of heartache.
But I'm glad you invited me into Night Raid,
Najenda.
Yeah.
It's been fun.
Farewell.
Survive, Akame.
Night Raid.
The end of the Imperial Era.
They were known as the criminal organisation that caused an uproar in the capital.
However, no trace of them remains...
in the new kingdom's historical records.
Where there is life, there is darkness.
Where there is darkness, there is evil.
To protect those who are unarmed, and to punish the evildoers...
that heaven cannot judge in the shadows...
We are all assassins.

信じた道を行く
As I head down the path I believe in
watashi wo tsukiugokasu netsu egakitsuzuketekita sekai e michibiku
私を突き動かす熱 描き続けてきた世界へ導く
The fever that drives me forward... will lead me to the world I'd been imagining
I survived...
So I must continue to bear on my shoulders...
the feelings of those who've passed.
I can only kill.
However, that doesn't mean I have no future.
I have faith.
That's why...
I will continue to walk this path.
Eliminate.
