First of all, why was the anime completed before the manga? As far as I am
aware, the anime is ahead of the latest manga chapters by a large margin.

I've heard that the anime actually differs from the manga; does this mean we
might get a remake like _Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood_ for _Fullmetal
Alchemist_?

Furthermore, will the manga continue on with Akame's story? Will it explain
some of the plot holes that were left unanswered in the anime?

What are the differences between the Akame Ga Kill! manga and anime?


## Difference between the anime and manga of _Akame ga KILL!_

I have listed out some of the differences between the anime and manga of
_Akame ga KILL!_ [in this
answer](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/15124/what-akame-ga-kill-
manga-should-i-read-if-i-want-to-continue-the-story-line-of/15129#15129). Let
me reproduce it here for posterity.

Originally, this happened during the mission to assassinate Borick, which
spans from chapter 40 to chapter 43. In the anime, Susanoo's death is moved to
episode 21 during the rescue for Tatsumi instead, and Borick's assassination
is trivialized at the end of episode 19.

## Possibility of a remake ending

It's not unprecedented and even common for the anime to have an original
ending, when the anime runs out of source material. Heck, for the case of
_Fullmetal Alchemist_ , the 2003 anime branched off from the manga half-way
and followed its own original storyline.

For the case of _Akame ga KILL!_ , it is extremely unlikely that it gets a
remake. Unlike the case of _Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)_ anime where the plot
in the manga was still developing, _Akame ga KILL!_ manga is currently on its
way to the ending. The anime's ending also prohibits any logical extension to
the story, and an anime continuation would require a completely new arc in the
manga, plus great demand from fans.

Since the manga is currently on-going, only time will tell whether the manga
has the same ending as the anime or not, or whether there is any extension to
the story of the characters who survives.

There are also several exclusions of the story of several side characters. For
example the anime completely leaves out the Wild Hunt without which viewers
never find out Run's story (it's touched on in the anime but never developed).
Because the anime ended early, people will never know the story of people like
Wave.

Spoiler:

> Lubbock gets killed by Budo after escaping being tortured in prison by
> Syura.

And there will probably never be a remake - it's just too brutal...

But you should definitely read the manga.

And the elite team by Shura is skipped so much even the connection between
Ran's past and one of the member. In the end Ran did his revenge but death in
the end...

It's the same from episode 1 to 18, but after that, they did many shortcuts:

  * Borik's assassination became "easy np"
  * They skipped the Wild Hunt Arc
  * Transformed many awesome combats and just ruined it. Most of them are short silly combats, removing most of the meaning et deap of some characters.

The adaptation was quite disappointing.
