Talk:Akame VS Raven Branwen/@comment-27518422-20190623190404/@comment-27518422-20190623215051

@Ragazz - I still think Akame has her topped in speed, especially helped with her shorter and more nimble frame, though shape shifting could be tricky to keep up with at first. Akame is more than capable of whittling down Raven though. She has done this time and time again so I don't see her struggling here.

@Ghost - I disagree. See, she has more blades - but they hardly offer her more functions than Murasame alone. They just become enlarged clubbing tools. There was nothing she used on Cinder that suggested her blades being giant Dust swords added anything to her versatility. Sure, she has more weapons than Akame, but I wouldn't say any of them are more useful in a scrap. Akame hardly ever needs to use her Trump Card but I can bet she'd be wise in its deployment vs Raven - thanks to her skill, discipline and experience as an assassin, she would probably be able to tell if / when she needs it and how to not leave herself exposed.

I also don't think Raven's blades offer her many outlets for different scenarios. Sure, she can whip up elemental combinations behind them but I can't see much of it threatening Akame's reactions and natural movement speed.

Her regular blade was seemingly and instrument for her semblance (the teleport thing) and while yes, her Maiden powers are versatile I really believe Akame still holds enough advantages to pull ahead.

Of course, that is all just my opinion, and I get it that people will have different outlooks on it. Look forward to seeing what you do with this fight, Ghost!
