Akame ga Kill. They tried to do anime Game of Thrones and they failed. Half of the episodes play out like this. You meet a new character. You see their backstory and they get killed in their first episode. The worst one of this type of characters is Chelsea. You get hers backstory two minutes before she dies. The best thing from the show is Esdeath.

Akame ga Kill is a fantastic manga!

We do not talk about the anime.

In a nutshell, it tried to speedrun the plot of the manga, and halfway through decides it would be better for it to do its own thing. It then just goes completely off the rails compared to the plot of the manga. I honestly felt personally insulted as a fan and actively try to forget the anime exists.
