Looks crazy enough, but a little ridiculous. The animation is pretty good though.

Anyone else watching this dubbed? I can't believe how many of my favorite VAs are in this! They're doing a fantastic job too.

Love the OP too. Same guy that did "Heart of Sword" for Rurouni Kenshin.

I loved the art, the concept, the actions scenes and whatnot. 5/5.

But when I heard Maka's and Soul's voices... meh. I felt that Maka's was... emotionless. And Soul's was... deep. He looks young and his voice is like, deeep. Anyway, I hope it gets better in the next episodes.

I ended up giving it a 4/5. It was an awesome watch. :)

o god i think i may have found a new favourite. both these 2 characters are awesome. the "cool guy" and maka. when i saw her i though she was gonna be an annoying tsundere type of character that will always beat up her partner (usually out of jealousy) but i'm glad it wasnt that way. and damn soul's voice is deeper that i though he would from his looks.

The episode was awesome, but would've been better if i knew the name of the song that comes in when the trailer about Blackstar is shown (between the episode itself and ending)

Pretty good first episode. I dig the artstyle, particularly the character designs. Maka's sticks out the most to me and her rather unique voice only adds to that. Also, the fight scenes were animated real well.

Making my transition from video games back to anime and manga. So this is my first anime in a while.
Watching English subbed. The second I heard Soul talk I was just shocked. Such a big voice coming out of such a little guy. XD
My favorites so far probably have to be Blaire and Maka's father. Even when he's being serious, I can't take Death seriously when he has a face like that.
It was pretty good; I was kind of expecting it to be more serious. The nose bleeds especially got me annoyed, making me think it must be one of THOSE kinds of anime.
I think I'll probably be able to adjust to the humor in the series. It's fine, just not what I thought I would find.
I'm hoping that Maka and Soul won't become anything more than friends. I wasn't really looking for another romance shōnen.

Action, Ecchi, Nosebleeds, Neko Girl and more Actions!

That sure summed up this epic start of Soul Eater! Great concept and just a nice prequel to the whole thing...

My hunches is now because they messed up in the end that their journey will be to get back those 99 Soul eggs and in the end a witches soul!

So lets find out how this actually will go!

First off, what animation! Clean action, clear character design, and vivid colors, this looks like a repeat of the pure bubblegum-pop that was Eureka 7, and that is exactly what I was hoping for. I like both Soul and Maka, so I'll enjoy their development throughout the series. Also, can we get a hentai spinoff for Blair? Or am I just that big of a perv...

I tried watching Soul Eater 2 years ago but only watched about 5 episodes. I don't know if it's because I'm watching this in blu ray, but I enjoyed it so much more this time around.

MAKA'S DAD. XD
Interesting start. I still remembered reading its manga years back. Now it soon end.
Maka's voice was really good. Totally different from other VA with sweet voices.

I was digging through very old screenshots and found like 2 from this show. I can't believe I've watched part of this before, it all came back in a flash. I remember losing interest and not thinking much of it back then but this has already been a strong reintroduction to it. Awesome fights, hilarious characters, and it's giving me some Shaman King vibes. Looking forward to seeing it through this time around.

I would like to ask a "strange" question but It's in my mind since a few....

What bad things Blair has done to be hunted and her soul being devoured?
Did she hurt someone? Cursed? Killed? Something bad?

Dropped this show awhile back. Not to sure why but now that I'm watching it again I don't regret holding off.. The fight scene was epic and the humor is alright. I like the sub a lot better too. Now I have something "new" to keep me busy!

Maka's voice feels a little bit forced but it does fit her character.
The comedy is alright.
The fighting looked very fluid and nicely animated.

Black Star sounds like a girl.

Haha, this show just immediately explains everything to the viewer.

"As you know, fellow protagonist, I can turn into a scythe! This is just my human form."

"Yeah, but I don't think of you like a father. We have family issues between us."

Great introduction to the world and isn't characters! I loved the execution of delivering the atmosphere of this world through Maka and Soul mission!
