dotcom Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 So this is a topic for discussion of Atsushi Ohkubo's manga series Soul Eater and Soul Eater Not!, as well as the anime based on the former. Anyways, anybody following the series?SE Chapter 91 and Not! spoilers followingI'm really curious where the Moon arc will lead. It feels like the finishing arc, to be honest. Either way, I am really wondering about Garan. Dinka has already proved himself as awesome (He is an axe.) So I'm curiosu about the last Death Scythe. And the new 3 clowns look really awesome, although Kaguya is... well, not really anything new, but still. Not! doesn't seem to be leading anywhere, since Sheila hasn't done much. It just feels like a random homoerotic slice-of-life manga. :I Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nescent Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Loved the show. I watched through all four seasons over the summer (in about two days' time). I even have a Soul Eater necklace (Death's mask). EXCALIBUR! EXCALIBUR! From the United K, I'm looking for heaven! I'm going to California! EXCALIBUR! EXCALIBUR!

Delta Titan Sparta Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I was introduced to Soul Eater just this year, and it's currently my favorite anime. I haven't been able to find the manga yet. Quote SUPPORT LEGO HUNGER GAMES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bundalings Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 My friend tried explaining the show to me and I was like "That sounds like the worst thing ever." Then I watched it and I was like BRILLIANT. This series is really really hard to explain to people and make it sound like not ######. =/ Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive.

Delta Titan Sparta Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Know what you mean.Kid always makes me laugh. If he was real, I'd take Sharpie to one side of his face and see what happens. XD Quote SUPPORT LEGO HUNGER GAMES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XDHe would probably loop out, then spend hours replicating the design exactly on the other side of his face to make it symmetrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta Titan Sparta Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 He would probably loop out, then spend hours replicating the design exactly on the other side of his face to make it symmetrical.And I would sit there ROFLMAO-ing the whole time.Personally, I relate to Soul and Black Star a lot. Black Star's introductory episode in the anime was hilarious. Soul and Maka's... a bit embarrassing. Quote SUPPORT LEGO HUNGER GAMES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Shameful display. No matter how good the anime is (It is pretty good) the manga is ultimately better.If only because it has Tezca and Gopher.We need more manga readers. I think Volume 7 is coming out this week. I need to get my hands on a copy.Marie is on the cover yuss. Edited October 25, 2011 by dotcom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZTG Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 My favorite characters are Kid, Maka and Soul. Maka reminds me a lot of my friend eve.

dotcom Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 Having the main characters as favorites is so mainstream.The best characters are obviously Stein, Crona, Tezca, Giriko, Gopher. Justin and Marie. Obviously.Or Soul and Kid, I guess. If you want to be boring d: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundalings Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Crona is definitely my favorite in the anime. I really should read the manga. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 Yes, yes you should.Anyone wno watches the anime but doesn't read the manga is doing a diservice to themselves.Of course, the anime has very toneed down version of the 'sexy parts,' so the somewhat explicit nature of the manga could turn away some people.

Bundalings Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Meh. That's not really a selling point, nor something that discourages me particularly. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Yeah I guess, but considering SE is basically softcore hentai, it's worth mentioning.In fact that's my least favorite aspect of the manga, but I've learned to tolerate it.

ZTG Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Oh karzahni! If the sexual parts are toned down in the anime...wow..."The only thing that should be stuffed in everyponies' face is chocalate cake,"-Pinkie Pie Quote "Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it.

dotcom Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 Yeah. I bought the first four volumes of the manga (ie, all the released ones) last year after becoming a fan. The first volume ._. Anyways, I got Vol. 7 yesterday. Finally we're reaching the point where the anime breaks off. It should only take another year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
