When I first watched the anime I had the assumption of Akame and Tatsumi being a ship because the show was more about fighting than it was a romance so putting two of the main characters together seemed obvious also because its something a lot of shows do but making Mine and Tatsumi be together was surprising in the back of my mind I always had a little hope that it would be Mine and Tatsumi but common sense made me believe that Akame and Tatsumi would end up together, Turns out it was Mine and Tatsumi which I was happy with but which made the deaths even more devastating.
