Yes, I guess we have :-) . Out of curiosity, which characters do you think that are like Akame. I can't really think of one that combines her personality traits.

As for Akame's sexuality, I don't really know. She is closest to girls and Tatsumi but doesn't seem to have a romantic interest in anyone. You just never see her be romantically or even physically attracted to anyone in the serie. Leone states that she is her best friend, and she has a very similar relationship with Tsukushi in Zero. I never saw these as romantic. Leone seems to be straight  (I guess she could be bi, but she never showed an physical attraction to women) and Akame and Tatsumi seem to have a close relationship. I am fairly certain AkamexTatsumi would be a popular ship, they have moments that could be interpreted as romantic (some shippers get utterly insane over a lot less moments, just google the IchiRuki fandom for example and see). I do get why people get the idea of her being bi/lesbian, she has no really romantic moments with males after all. But she also doesnt seem to be romantically attracted to woman, scenes of girls bathing together and even groping each other are quite common in manga. These moments don't seem to have romantic tension. It is not like she blushes when around Leone or gets jealous of Tatsumi when Leone shove him in her cleavage. Akame seems not interested in romance of any kind during the story, be it with a man or a woman. I also don't really know a manga where such an important character is subtely gay.

Lubbock seems best suited for that kind of "guide to the new world". I wouldn't mass produce Teigu. Synthetic soldiers are a good idea, but they also render Murasame ineffective. I wouldn't use mass produced Teigu of any kind, they would only damage role and "mystery" of the real Teigu. Tatsumi's reactio to the Gman would normally be utter shock and  demanding an explanation from him. A synth based on a danger beast would indeed be cool, and you can give them abilities accordingly.
