Also I've seen Akame ga Kill, and read it's manga, so I'm already used to the idea of nearly every main character dying by the time the show ends.

-Defcon Deceiver 1. I'm not sure what part of the fanbase you're talking about, there were many of us who called Pyrrha's death shortly after V1.... based on facts provided pretty much by the end of the initiation. She was never safe, if you believed that you had to be sharing the peace pipe with the part that still thinks pyrrha isn't dead and should be revived... trust those of us who actually called Pyrrha's death when we say... Weiss can't die yet.

2.  Akame ga Kill is very different(the entire series follows essentially a revenge plot while threading the old saying about those who go seeking revenge needing to dig 2 graves)... and rather upfront about the casualty rate. The title character doesn't even die(unless she does in the manga)... instead the author deceptively tells the story through another characters PoV, then hops through the other's PoV's before they die.
