Tatsumi (Akame ga Kill!)

Tatsumi, also known as Blacksmith Tatsumi, is the main protagonist from the Akame ga Kill! series.
== Charactah Account ==
Tatsumi embarks on a quest towards the capitol in hopes of joining the military and earning enough money to send back to his impoverished village. After narrowly escaping an evil ploy by sadistic nobles, Tatsumi soon learns about the true corruption within the Empire and is recruited into the ranks of Night Raid whose task is to rid the Empire of this corruption by slaying the wicked. Further on whilst competing in a fighting tournament sponsored by the Empire he unknowingly manages to steal Esdeath's heart who unceremoniously decides to make Tatsumi her lover, much to his discomfort.
Tatsumi is widely regarded by many, both allies and enemies, to have an immense amount of hidden potential despite his young age. Lacking the skill and experience of his fellow allies in Night Raid, he makes up for the fact by becoming increasingly more powerful with every battle, with his rapid growth rate being noted by stronger members such as Akame and Bulat.
Mine later confesses her love to Tatsumi and they start going out afterwards. Tatsumi survives the final battle by fusing with his Imperial Teigu Incursio.

== Trivia ==
* Tatsumi's name means "Sleeping Dragon", which seems to be a reference to his hidden potential, which has been noted by many different characters in the series. The first creature he was shown fighting was an Earth Dragon, and he later obtained the "Demon Dragon" Teigu.
** Ironically, in the end of the manga series, Tatsumi has transformed into a literal dragon.
* Tatsumi's parallel in the Jaegers is Wave.
* Tatsumi is apparently a fan of the manga Hatsukiai, which is published in Gangan Joker, the same publication that Akame Ga Kill! appears in.
* Tatsumi had a rather large forelock of hair on top of his head which has a tendency to be rather expressive during times of emotion, such as when Esdeath walks into her bedroom half naked, it stands straight up.
* Tatsumi was briefly mentioned in Hinowa ga Yuku! by Akane during her meeting with Hinata at Elder's Class as she's determined to not only undo Murasame's curse on herself, but also find a way to make Tatsumi human again.
