Episode 1
Akame is first introduced during a raid on a sadistic family protected by the government. Tatsumi, unknowing of what he was protecting, attempted to fend off Akame but was ultimately outmatched. As he was willing to fight to the death, Akame decided to show him what people he really was defending by opening a nearby warehouse door and revealing the tortured innocents the family were willing to add him too later, which included his missing friends. After Tatsumi kills the girl he was protecting in a fit of rage, Akame is joined by the other members of Night Raid, who decide that Tatsumi is worth recruiting.
