Scar Chain arc
Akiyama participates in the Deadman mass prison break. In the first attempt, he is amongst Ganta's group carrying the data chip. After taking an elevator, the group encounters Genkaku. In the ensuing battle, Akiyama was one of the few deadmen that survived. In the anime, however, Akiyama was immediately shot by Genkaku's machine guns and then dies while protecting Ganta from an Undertaker.
