ariel-kreynin Soul Eater is my favorite show on Earth! There are many great characters like Blair and Blackstar. It's full of action and some funny moments. You don't need to like this show but at least watch it.Some things are very surprising in this show. About everything is epic about this show. The beast part about this show is this: Blair. Blair is my favorite character. She is a cat-girl with magical powers and is first seen on episode 1. There is more to her but you can learn about her while watching Soul Eater.There are many different kinds of moments in this show: tragic moments, funny moments. etc.. If you never seen this show, go watch it. Watch at least 1 episode.
mrseriously The premise and art style of Soul Eater is quite appealing even though it has some undeniable similarities even in that field to at least one other anime. Outside of that my main gripes with the show center around how formulaic most of the show is. This is of course something which is more or less consistent within animes targeted at guys in their early teens.The characters, for starters, are more or less the obligatory posse of various flavours of weirdos with a few variations. There's the serious hard-working girl, the overconfident and at first seemingly incompetent loudmouth, the pervy older guy, the scarily severe mature woman, the person who is really nice but is a victim of their circumstances, a whole collection of unhinged characters for comedy relief and so on and so forth. I feel like I could go on quite a while but I think that will do. My main point of this is that most of the characters are neither particularly interesting nor relatable, especially what with the constant digressions into weird comic relief situations. One thing that I thought was quite interesting - even though it didn't necessarily make for a better character - was Kid's obsession with symmetry. It was really surprising to see that it actually came into play in some of his battles. Usually in this kind of show the modus operandi seems to be to throw all kinds of established character flaws out the window to make room for fight scenes and whatnot. Asura also seemed like an interesting character initially. The fact that one of the most powerful beings in the world couldn't stop shaking with fear and would reflexively kill people because he just couldn't help himself was - at least to myself - a new way of presenting the main villain. Sadly this characterisation was later thrown away in favour of the more typical and less interesting calm and completely nihilistic flavour of bad guy.Speaking of fight scenes, here too the problem is how according to formula the fights are. Almost every battle seems to consist of the same steps as every other shounen anime: the hero is outmatched, the villain taunts him, the hero gets to play punching bag for a while until he or she somehow pulls the victory right out of their nether region, and usually along with one or other contrived explanation for it. The main moral aesop is also delivered in a very ham-fisted way, going as far as to write it out on the screen in huge letters.Pretty much all of this can be explained to some degree by the intended audience for the show, but I still feel like there is untapped potential for something more interesting even for the older viewer which is ultimately squandered. For example, I would have liked to see the concepts of fear and madness and how they work as driving forces for the villains be given more space than they got. When it was present the horror feeling was very well done, but it would often evaporate as soon as one of the above mentioned comedy relief moments came along.
iluvedelric Soul Eater is about a world were there are weapons and masters and they work together to get demon souls for the weapon. In the show the first characters introduced, which were Soul and Maka work together to help make Soul an Death Scythe. That's like my lame plot description. o.o xD I'm not good at that kind of stuff. xD The reason i love this anime is because i think it's very original and it has a good mix of funny moments and serious moments and it just pulls everything together and i consider it a must watch to anyone who loves a good anime. :] ^^
Ardi H Im not a seasoned anime pro, i have seen like 3-4 series so far. Soul Eater is my latest discovery, and i must say I'm glad i found it.Usually a fan of refined, state-of-the-art-graphics stuff such as Ghost In The Shell, Soul Eaters style didn't catch me from the first second. But having decided to give it a try anyway, i found out that this complete graphical madness somehow has reason to it. It emphasizes (with arrows! :) ) only the most important, almost childishly drawing out the obvious. Which is actually quite original, plus you get surprised a lot by the changing style.Story is deep enough and has just enough background to tie the episodes together, yet always having a new twist. As childish as it is, it doesn't really feel like meant for kids - reminding me Harry Potter for that matter. Maybe its just me, but i found some other similarities with Harry Potter stories there..All in all, Soul Eater is a series worth watching for every anime fan for its original style.
