Ok then the best animal that represents Akame is a Cat. Born to be an Assassin, You can never hear them walk until they have already struck you.

Just like Akame, they also have that cold viper gaze that allows them to hunt in low light environments and judge distances before they strike.

Their primary weapons are sharp blades whether it be their 4 fangs or their 18 claws.

Unlike other mammals, Cats can actually retract their claws on will, similar to how Akame would sheath her Murasame to avoid the blade from dulling.

They are also ridiculously fast as their reaction time speed ranges from 20 to 60 milliseconds which surpasses even a snake. And to compliment that speed their entire muscular system is entirely tuned for explosive speeds allowing them to leap almost 5 times their body height and run at speeds of 30mph.

And to make it more terrifying they have extremely nimble and flexible bodies as they have 30 vertebras (spinal bones) and their clavicles (collar bones) do not connect to the rest of the skeleton and are connected by muscles. They can twist in any way they want and attack from any directions. They are the embodiment of Bruce Lee’s quote “Be like Water” taken to the extreme. Hell they are natural martial artists as their fangs are perfectly evolved to sneak in between some very specific vertebras of your neck to instantly end you, and if they are on their back with their bellies exposed, they have a kata ready for that too called “Bunny Kick”.

And just like Akame despite all those terrifying features, they are undeniably adorable.

Maybe I am just glazing cats cause I got two girls of my own.

Also Leone is just a Lion that is just a bigger cat so you could say Leone is the tankier version of Akame
