Wait, i totally forgot about them. Though i don't really wants to know but, what happened?
This is late but it took some time to work up the courage to remember. the new anti-assassin team finds them at Bols' grave and rapes/kills them on the spot .
I can handle grimdark, I can handle bad things happening to good people, and I like darkly comedic moments. But I think akame as a story relied way too heavily on establishing villains through exploitation of extreme sexual violence or blatant "I love the sound of innocents dying in the morning." speeches.
Bols I liked since he wasn't into cruelty, had a flawed but compelling morality and had a human element.
such a wasted potential... i miss her so much bros
I do too. But the story went out of its way to try and make her "irredeemable", though that was more of it telling us rather than showing, as Esdeath wasn't necessarily evil, just had with screwed up understanding of "survival of the fittest." But she had so much personality and motivation it was a shame that she didn't at least see the error of her ways.

In fairness, her only redeemable traits were her loyalty to her unit and her unflinchingly yandere love for the MC. I don't think she could see the error of her ways, considering the position she was in and how ingrained her social Darwinist views were short of brainwashing. She was evil not in the sense she was as pointlessly cruel as other characters as much as she was completely okay with and complicit in brutality.

Yea she could have lived , she could have played a role eventually in the new series too how knows. I could have seen her becoming an anti-hero at best and maybe try to be a better person at times , similar to Accelerator from Index maybe.

She was kind of starting to, just not at a fast enough pace for the war. When she encountered Tatsumi in the mountains alone she was flying on the back of a dragon and she went out because of how pretty the moon was. Something she notes was very out of character for her, saying it must be the effect he had on her. If she fell for someone who loved her back, or at least tried talking to her more than twice, she may have changed. At least fought the empire to be stronger than their whole army. But there wasn't time. 13 years later I still get reminders this woman lives in my heart forever.
