Number and location of the intruders?
Judging by my barrier's reaction, there's probably eight of them.
They're all close to the hideout.
I'm impressed they sniffed this place out.
They're probably assassins from another race.
Move out!
Let none of them leave alive!
You aren't used to group combat yet.
Don't overdo it.
Focus on getting a feel for the battlefield first.
Okay!
Also, call me "Aniki" or "Handsome".
All right, Aniki!
Nice!
Feels great!
I'll show you something cool in return!
Incursio!
Wow! Awesome!
Right?
This is the Teigu Incursio.
Teigu?
I don't really get it, but I'm pumped up!
Oh, so you understand its awesomeness?
The enemy.
Let's go!
Take a good look at the power of this Teigu!
Yeah!

Kill Your Cares
Her face is on the wanted posters.
This means Night Raid's hideout must be close.
What a cute girl.
We can have some fun after we kill her.
Don't damage her body too much.
You guys are too relaxed in enemy territory.
Too fast...
Damn it!
I'll take her down with me!
Death
Cursed poison from my wound?
One slash, certain kill.
They detected us!
But I'm certain that Night Raid's hideout is here.
This information alone is of huge value!
Looks like he has already run pretty far.
I don't really like to expose myself, but...
You're mine!
I'm sorry.
Thanks, Sheele.
Nice pinch.
It'll reach him just fine with this amount of risk!
Right on target!
The more of a pinch I'm in, the stronger Pumpkin gets.
That was Mine's Pumpkin, huh?
I don't get how she can use such a bothersome Teigu.
As for me, I just turn into a beast and beat people up.
So easy!
I see, the wires felt so light because it was a woman.
Please save me!
I'll do anything!
Nope.
I knew a guy who died because he fell for a woman's seduction.
Ah, what a waste.
This job really sucks sometimes.
Aniki!
H-He's strong...
Is this Night Raid's power?
You survived, Tatsumi?
Y-Yeah.
That's good!
You're showing promise, Tatsumi.
Yeah!
Assassins... and the vital point of the revolution,
Night Raid.
Looks like I joined an amazing group.
Why did Aniki's face come to my mind?
The imperial capital is here.
A wall surrounding the capital for thousands of miles...
and huge ships crossing the canals.
There's a lot to see, right?
Not to mention the refined ladies from the capital!
So vulgar!
Why only me?!
Sayo, Ieyasu...
I'll do my best!
Did something happen?
Sheele.
Well...
I was told to accompany Mine on her mission today.
That's why I'm waiting, but...
Mine doesn't wake up easily.
What's with that?!
She has work to do!
I guess it can't be helped.
Shall I go wake her up?
No.
Tatsumi should go.
Why me?!
You're Mine's subordinate today.
And it's a subordinate's duty to get his superior.
I got it.
Is that so?
This is also a trial.
Hey, Mine!
Don't keep sleeping forev-
Are you trying to kill me?!
Of course!
That was my intention!
Well dodged, you pervert!
Idiot!
You were still asleep, so I came to get you...
You don't even know how to knock?
You hick!
What?
Is it some kind of festival?
They're really going at it.
Sounds like Tatsumi will have more work to do.
Now that I've had a closer look at the capital I admired so much,
a lot of people seem to be gloomy.
Hey, you peeping tom!
What's taking you so long, you hick?
You're accompanying me as my minion today, right?
Minion?
Didn't the boss tell you?
She only told me to learn from you!
That means you're my minion.
Just hurry up!
H-Hey, wai-
Hey, Mine.
Doesn't it look like lots of people are suffering?
That's because of the recession and the ruthless government.
Only one social class is prospering.
The rest are suffering from poverty.
That's the reality of it.
Hey!
Hey, what's wrong?
Hey, what are you guys doi-
Stop bullying the weak!
Who the heck are you?
She's a refugee from another country.
She can't disobey us citizens.
Or what?
Tatsumi.
Yeah!
Um, thank you.
Don't thank us!
Become strong enough to protect yourself!
By the way, is it all right for us to walk around in broad daylight?
Only the faces of those four are known.
I see.
Who's the guy in the middle?
Bulat.
Bulat...
A-Aniki?!
That's how he looked when he was a soldier.
He changed his image after joining Night Raid.
Isn't that too much?!
This is history's worst "before & after".
That's why the two of us can walk around freely and carry out our mission.
Got it?
Bring it on!
That's why you brought me along, right?
All right!
Let's start investigating the capital's condition.
I don't really get it, but yeah!
What a haul!
Pink clothes really are best in spring.
That's right.
We have to stretch our wings on our days off.
That's right.
Okay!
Mission complete!
Isn't this just shopping?!
Know your place!
I'm above, you're below!
A subordinate shouldn't talk back!
You should be grateful I'm letting you carry my bags!
You being my superior is only temporary!
Besides, this isn't even training!
Did you think we'd be equal right away?
It seems you're confident in your sword skills,
but there's a difference in the number of battles we've fought.
I also...
I also know that I'm inexperienced.
But I have to keep moving forward!
For Sayo and Ieyasu's sake too!
Akame and Bulat seem to have high expectations of you,
but I'm not so sure.
What's the commotion?
Probably a public execution.
It happens often in the capital.
How cruel!
The current minister has no issues with doing something like this.
He's a sly person who helped the young emperor win the battle for succession.
I won't end up like that.
I'm going to survive and be one of the winners.
A sly minister, huh?
Just what kind of person is he?
Domestic Affairs Official Shoui,
for opposing my policies and delaying government affairs,
I sentence you to dismemberment by bulls.
Was that all right, Minister?
Splendid.
You're such a wise ruler, Emperor.
Meat again?
You sure eat a lot.
It's best to eat while it's still fresh.
Buono, buono.
Emperor, the minister is deceiving you!
Please listen to the voices of your people!
Hey Minister, did you hear what he just said?
He's lost his mind.
Yeah!
You've never been wrong, after all.
Shoui-dono.
This is a sad farewell.
Emperor, at this rate, the empire's thousand-year history will...
Shoui-dono.
Don't worry about the beautiful wife you're leaving behind.
I'll take good care of her...
in every possible way!
H-How can something like this be allowed?
Sins must be punished!
Anyone will do!
Please...
make this demon pay for his horrible crimes!
We received a new mission.
The target is a distant relative of Minister Honest, Iyokaru
He uses the minister's name to kidnap woman and beat them to death.
His five guards are getting their share too, so they're also guilty.
This is an important mission!
I'm sending all of you!
That's the mansion Iyokaru lives in.
It's huge.
Hey.
What?
Is that also a Teigu?
That's right.
The Teigu Pumpkin.
The more in a pinch its user is in, the stronger it becomes.
It's not like I'm ever in a pinch, though.
How do they even make something like that?
Teigus are powerful weapons from ancient times.
No one knows how to make them anymore.
You're a pretty nosy guy, aren't you?
It should reach him just fine from this distance.
I'll shoot as soon as he leaves the mansion.
Okay!
My job is to guard you after you shoot him, right?
Leave it to me!
Don't get your hopes up.
Amazing concentration!
Even I can feel it from here.
He came out.
Where? Where?
There are also lots of people who aren't targets.
So what?
"So what?"
How are you going to shoot him?
It doesn't matter.
"It doesn't matter?"
Don't tell me you plan on shooting those peop-
You know, I'm a genius sniper!
We have to find the person who killed Iyokaru-sama at all costs!
The minister will kill us if they escape!
They couldn't have gone too far!
Here they are.
All right, let's go wild this time!
Ah, geez...
This route is hard to walk on.
I wonder if our pursuers have been annihilated already.
Those guards were trained at Koukenji.
They may not be so easy to deal with.
Koukenji,
the best martial arts temple in the empire.
If you're a relative of the minister, you get to have good guards, I guess.
Using the power of a relative to do whatever they want...
Something like that pisses me off the most!
Did something happen in her past?
As a special treat, I'll let you hear a story about my past.
I didn't even ask!
I was born on the western border.
I'm half foreigner.
I was cruelly discriminated against in the city.
Nobody accepted me.
It was a tragic childhood.
But you know, the Revolutionary Army formed an alliance with the people of the west.
Once we form a new country, diplomatic relations will improve...
and nationalities won't matter anymore.
Others won't have to go through what I did.
I won't let anyone suffer from discrimination again!
Mine...
And then, as someone who helped with the revolution, I'll receive enormous rewards and live like a celebrity.
I feel so refreshed!
They were pretty strong, weren't they?
That's strange.
There should have been five guards.
I didn't even get to kill one.
Not enough!
That means you only get half the reward, Lubbo.
No way, Nee-san!
Half share!
Tatsumi.
This is the rendezvous point.
Mission complete.
We're on mission until we've given our report.
Aren't those Akame's words?
Watch out!
Wai-
Tatsumi!
T-This guy!
As expected, you're not bad.
You're a martial artist from Koukenji, aren't you?
That's right.
I was even the assistant instructor.
That was 10 years ago, though!
And you're just a lowly guard now?
Your status seems to have fallen a lot!
I was a little bad, so they expelled me.
I'll have some fun before I hand you over to the minister.
Prepare yourself!
You must be joking!
Now, Mine!
Shoot!
Tatsumi...
To sacrifice yourself for me!
Hell no!
Let me go!
You're a genius sniper, aren't you?
I believe in you!
You little!
Damn it!
Let me go!
Hurry up!
Even thought you're just a newbie...
All right, let's do it!
Wait!
You dared to kill a relative of the minister,
you won't be able to get away easily!
So you do have some guts.
I have no choice but to acknowledge you a lit-
Say what you want, that was way too close!
Look what happened to my head!
W-What?
Just when I was about to acknowledge you!
Shut up!
You're no genius!
You're not even close!
Seems we didn't need to rush over here.
It's obvious that I'm a genius!
Besides, geniuses don't call themselves a genius!
What?!
Idiot! Idiot...
The same as me, a Teigu user.
An assassin!
Happy! Happy!
So someone like her is going wild?
Hey, you over there!
He's suspicious.
Don't move from there!
It seems the capital is the best place to live.
No matter how many I cut down, there are always more people!
Happy! Happy!
