Instead, his friends were murdered and Tatsumi finds himself at the centre of a bloody revolution. With an evil Prime Minister, the Secret Police, and the armies of an Empire on one side, and the elite assassins known as Night Raid and a handful of rebels on the other, it might sound like an impossible battle for Tatsumi’s new allies to win. However the playing field is levelled with the addition of a legendary set of unstoppable weapons, the Imperial Arms. Unfortunately, to use an Imperial Arm is practically a death sentence in itself, for while the Arms are indestructible, few wielders can survive using them for long in AKAME GA KILL – THE COMPLETE COLLECTION!"

With ambition buried deep down, and far more leadership ability than his beauty would suggest, Griffith gets the better of Guts in a duel, thus drawing him into the Band of the Hawk. Over the course of numerous hard-fought battles, the comrades all form bonds of trust with one another. The ties between Griffith and Guts in particular grow to become something special.
Eventually the Band of the Hawk joins the ranks of the kingdom of Midland's regular army, but this is nothing more than the first step in Griffith's grand designs.
