Bio:
Manga
Akame is the leader of the ancient group of ninja dogs, the Iga Clan . The Iga dogs and the rivelising clan, the Koga dogs, have been fighting for decades over territory and the sacred documents which the Iga clan conseals within their base. A long time ago, Akame encountered with the Great Dane, Ben, in the woods of Mie. Here, Ben's owner mistook Akame for a squirrel and shot him in the back leg. The owner then took Akame home to train him to be a hunting dog. However, Akame pleaded to Ben to release him and told him that he belonged to the ancient clan Iga. Ben felt sorry for him and finally destroyed the chains that held Akame in his cage.
When Akame first encountered Ben's platoon, he suspected them for being spies of the Koga clan. He therefore lures them into a trap and poisons the platoon with spikes. However, Akame soon realises his mistake and rushes to the Koga territory to find healing herbs. Here, he fight with the Koga clan's leader, Kurojaki. He gets badly wounded, but taken to safety by the tora-ge Akita, Gin. After Gin defeats Kurojaki, Akame burns the Iga clan's base, the Iga house, to erase all memories of the past along with the sacred documents. His nemesis, Kurojaki, dies in the flames. He then decides to join Ben's platoon, after being impressed with Gin's fighting skills.
After the final battle against Akakabuto, Akame helps Gin defeat the wolves that are attacking the peaceful Ou. He kills the wolves Shuga and White Tiger and injures the evil leader of the clan, soldiers of the empire, Gaia.
