Plot
The first scene is shown with Zank the Executioner strangling a woman who was begging her life, willing to do anything to live. After giving a little chat, he beheads her straight away, delighted with the site.

Tatsumi was practicing his swordsmanship but began to become tired. Bulat, who was with him, helped him in his training. Akame then appeared, asking for him to cook with her. Tatsumi becomes a little embarrassed, moving away from Bulat, because he and Bulat were shirtless and he thought Akame would have misunderstand.

When cooking, Tatsumi asked what they were making and Akame answered with croquette bowls which shocked Tatsumi a little because they were eating it for breakfast and he thought the reason was because they were assassins. Afterwards only Leone, Tatsumi, and Akame were seen at the table. Tatsumi was full, Leone was satisfied with her meal, and Akame wanted to eat more. Since Mine and Sheele weren't present at the table, due to them waking up later than the others as usual, Akame ate both of their meals. Then she told Tatsumi they were eating tuna bowls for lunch and at that moment, Sheele walked into the room wondering where her breakfast was since she saw no food in her bowl.

Somewhere else, Najenda was with an injured soldier of the revolution. He gave her a book of names that had signed to support the revolt. Najenda took it and thanked him, then the soldier died wishing for the revolution to be a success. When she got back to Night Raid's base, Najenda told the members of a new target, which was Zank. She gave the team some information on the killer. Tatsumi, who hasn't heard of Zank before, asked who he was and Sheele being an airhead said she doesn't know too but the fact was that she had forgotten. Mine then explained that Zank the Executioner was previously an executioner of the Capital's largest prison who later came to enjoy chopping off heads. Then it was told that Zank stole a teigu and started his random kills.
