Wasn't blending in with the fans precisely why they liked Fang Zheng?
"I toil in darkness, yet serve the light!
Shiru died in episode six, Big Brother Brody died in episode eight, and my wife
Tsukimi died in episode ten, while Lubbock died in episode seventeen! Big Shot Fang, tell me, how many of the ones left
are still alive?!!!
"Tsukimi died, and her head was even hung up. Author, do you have something against my Tsukimi dying
"Lubbock is a True Man!!!
By now, even the slowest viewers knew what kind of
anime this was.
This was nothing like the super-fiery battle anime Fang Zheng had advertised at first. Instead, it was incredibly depressing
and utterly heart-wrenching.
The characters they liked would still be calling someone "my wife" one moment, only to get
killed off the next.
After suffering through this again and again, the tormented viewers practically stopped hoping for any new characters to
appear, just as they had with Tsukimi.
Tsukimi had won a huge number of fans' loyalty as soon as she appeared, but after only a few episodes,
Tsukimi died after failing to assassinate Kurome.
That made the viewers realize Fang Zheng's sinister intentions.
There was no most tragic—only something even more healing!
Fang Zheng had no bottom line, killing off their wives one after another. The fans were furious, yet there was nothing they could do.
As a result, these fans both hoped for new characters to join and feared seeing another tragic
death.
When the anime began airing, quite a few fans held their breath. To be honest,
there had already been enough tragedies in "Akame ga Kill!" Far too many characters they liked had died,
leaving behind far too many regrets.
"Pierce straight through him!
For some reason, as the anime continued airing, when the viewers heard Mine's hoarse, desperate
roar, they instinctively felt a surge of tension.
Based on how amazing "Akame ga Kill!" had been throughout all these episodes, their instincts told them that the Mine they
liked might also be about to
win.
When Mine fell from the ruins, the hearts of countless viewers sank with her.
The bullet comments froze at that moment. Although the oppressive plot left them with a thousand things
to say, in the end, they all turned into prayers in the depths of their hearts.
Mine, don't die!
Although I wanted to fight alongside you until the very
"You're really bad at lying, Tatsumi. You're as naive as ever."
"Big man, don't bawl your eyes out."
"Hey, I'm really glad I was able to fall in love with Tatsumi."
The sun sank toward the horizon, its afterglow spilling across the earth. The Tsundere Mine of old was gone,
and that beautiful purple hair that had left such a deep impression was no longer tied into twin tails.
Her loose hair danced in the wind. At that moment, Mine was as beautiful as a painting,
like a fairy from a fairy tale, so pitiful that anyone who saw her would feel compassion.
"What are you talking about? I'm already a winner in life~"
A kiss that could topple the world. Mine leaned against Tatsumi's chest, and the two tightly
embraced each other, with nothing else remaining in their eyes.
"You damn Tsundere, don't go to sleep!"
"Mine!!!!!"
"You, but I really don't like seeing you close your eyes~ I like that straightforward
you, and I like the playful you. I like the strong you,"
"Cry! All of you, cry for me!"
Sure enough, the foreboding in the viewers' hearts had been real. Watching Mine lean
against Tatsumi's chest beneath the setting sun and close her eyes forever, many viewers felt as though a
mountain had been placed on their hearts.
When they thought about how they would never hear that noisy voice again, and never see that Tsundere
gaze again, many viewers broke down in tears all at once.
"I clearly told myself earlier that I wouldn't cry, so why can't I stop these tears?"
"I'm so glad I was able to fall in love with Mine. And why can't a big man bawl his eyes out?
I'll cry if I want to!"
"Heh, although I knew Big Shot Fang wouldn't let my Mine off, you damn beast, why did you
make the plot so touching? Did you really have to trick every last one of my tears out?"
"I won't say anything else. I'm going to send someone some local specialties right now. Otherwise, I'll feel miserable holding it all in."
"Please, Big Shots, support me generously. This Failed Author kneels in thanks~~~"
Modu City, Qinghui Building.
"Director Fang, I really think you should deal with the fans' emotional issues."
At Fang Zheng's office, Zhang Siyu pushed open the door and walked in.
Looking at Fang Zheng, who was working, she said with an exasperated bitter smile, "The company's Logistics
Department has received another batch of blades sent by your fans. At this rate, we might as well stop making anime
and switch to wholesale blades. Maybe we'd make more money."
Recently, as "Akame ga Kill!" had been airing and one character after another that the viewers liked had died,
the company's Logistics Department had been constantly receiving local specialties sent by enthusiastic fans.
Hundreds of packages, large and small, arrived every day. Whenever they opened one, the cold gleam of those specialties inside made
everyone in the Logistics Department feel a chill run down their spines.
Because of this, the Logistics Department's staff had already been replaced batch after batch, and strange rumors were spreading
throughout the company.
If you ever got the chance to work at ACG Culture Company, you had to seize it. But if
ACG's Logistics Department was hiring, you'd better refuse.
"That exaggerated?"
After Fang Zheng finished drawing the original artwork in front of him, he heard Zhang Siyu's words, raised his head, and asked
suspiciously.
"If you don't believe me, Director Fang, you can go to the Logistics Department yourself. The specialties in the warehouse are almost
piled to the ceiling, and the head of Logistics is worrying about how to deal with them."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng gave an awkward laugh.
Come to think of it, the Logistics Department had suffered entirely undeserved misfortune.
If he hadn't advertised "Akame ga Kill!" on the show as a super-fiery battle anime,
the viewers wouldn't have been completely unprepared.
When viewers brimming with anticipation opened "Akame ga Kill!" only to discover that it was nothing like
the battle anime they had imagined, but instead was extremely depressing and oppressive,
the drastic contrast between expectation and reality made the fans explode on the spot. Fans in this state would do
