| Soul Eater (Manga) | comment |
Soul Eater is a Shōnen manga by Atsushi Ohkubo which was serialized in Monthly ShÅ�nen Gangan from 2004 to 2013, with a total of 113 chapters. It received a 51-episode anime by Studio Bones in 2008. As of January 2011, Monthly Shonen Gangan has run a prequel/Spin-Off titled Soul Eater Not! by the same mangaka, running alongside the original series while covering and expanding on events prior to the original story.In the world of Soul Eater, a human soul that falls to corruption has a chance of transforming into a "Demon Egg", which in turn has a chance of hatching into the ultimate avatar of madness.To stop this from happening, Death himself has set up the Death Weapon Meister Academy in Death City, Nevada. The DWMA trains warriors ("Meisters") and Weapons (humans who can shapeshift into weapons) to fight and retrieve the evil souls before they become Demon Eggs. A Meister and Weapon who manage to collect 99 corrupt souls and one Witch soul receive the highest honor: the Weapon becomes one of the Death Scythes, servitors of Death himself.The main characters include: Maka Albarn and her scythe, Soul Eater (just call him Soul). She's a raging workaholic, he's a slacker, but they make a great team. They almost made Soul into a Death Scythe at the beginning of the series, but failed on a technicality and have to start over. Black☆Star and his Morph Weapon Tsubaki: Black☆Star is a would-be master assassin who has trouble reconciling the concepts of "stealth" and "shouting about how awesome you are". His partner Tsubaki is an incredibly patient and capable Weapon who can transform into multiple ninja weapons, from a chain-scythe to a smoke bomb. Death the Kid and his twin-pistols the Thompson Sisters: Son of Death himself, whose incredible natural power is offset by his extreme Obsessively Organized behavior, being absolutely obsessed with symmetry. The Thompson Sisters serve as his weapons: Liz is the older and more cynical sister, while Patty is younger and goofier.The series is basically what happens when the plots of Shaman King and Harry Potter are pulsed together in a blender, Studio BONES is put in charge of the animation, and what appears to be the world's craziest graffiti artist and world's biggest Tim Burton fan is hired as animation director. It should be noted that, since the manga was still being published monthly when the anime aired, the anime starts to deviate from the source manga after about the first third of the series and pretty much creates its own climax and ending.The anime was acquired by Funimation, with tantalizing previews on their website. All of the episodes are viewable on their video portal (which is only viewable... In America...and Canada) and their YouTube channel. The series used to air on US television on Toonami on Saturday nights at 1:30 AM Eastern.See also Elemental Gelade, a similar concept with a more futuristic sci-fi bent. Shaman King shares lots of similarities with this series — a partner as a weapon, characters design, etc. See also Tweeny Witches and Little Witch Academia, two anime series about witches with a similar art style, premise, and themes.See also Fire Force, another series made by Ohkubo, which was revealed to be a prequel to this series in its final chapter.Notably, the character of Eibon and the Book of Eibon are both borrowed from the works of Clark Ashton Smith. Smith was a friend and contemporary of H. P. Lovecraft; his works are filled with Shout Outs to the Cthulhu Mythos and debatably comprise part of them. The influence of the mythos on Soul Eater can be seen in the series' focus on madness, power, and godhood, especially portraying madness as something akin to an infectious disease.Not to be confused with another Soul Eater, nor the literal kind. | |

Justin Law's headphones invert the pattern, using sound to cut Justin off from everyone around him and preventing him from resonating with anyone. Justin's loud voice and the big speakers of his car appear to be him compensating for this. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: Though she does care for her male friends, Maka believes in this as a result of her father cheating on her mother. Soul's tendency to get nosebleeds around attractive women doesn't help. Humorously, Liz and Tsubaki end up being the most perverted of Spartoi (as revealed during the Gender Bender) and even the now-male Maka gets a nosebleed looking at Black☆Star. | |

Nepharious Pharaoh: Witch necromancer Samantha tries to summon Wrath of the Pharaoh, a malevolent spirit residing in the Pyramid of Anubis. The sarcophagus of the Pharaoh is perfectly symmetrical, making it impossible for the Obsessively Organized Kid to destroy it. Then the Pharaoh steps out of the sarcophagus to give the final strike, and he is revealed to be horribly asymmetrical. Cue Kid's Berserk Button hitting the floor. | |

The Worf Effect | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_178ca149 | comment |
The Worf Effect: Black☆Star suffers from this (he beats Mifune in his first appearance and takes down Sid, but is utterly overpowered by Stein, bested by Death the Kid, needs help to take down Free, fails to stop Medusa and is one-shotted by Asura during his awakening, following being utterly humiliated by Mifune during their rematch and failing to complete his objective during the battle with Mosquito.) and indeed suffers a minor Heroic BSoD from it. Later in the anime after recovering from his Heroic BSoD, he fights Asura and the Worf Effect started when Asura recovered from Death the Kid's Death Cannon with all three Sanzu Lines. Seems to be reversing in the manga as well, unless Black☆Star loses to Crona... Chapter 79, Tezca Tlipoca is bitten nearly in half by one of Noah's worms. Since we know virtually nothing about him, it's unknown if it'll stick. Stein, Sid, Marie, and Nygus are all also defeated very easily by Noah and Justin Law in the same chapter. Turns out the Tezca we saw get bitten in half was an illusion; Justin knows that Tezca is the only person capable of tracking him, so Tezca faked his death put Justin off his guard. Also, this applies to Tsar Pushka and Feodor. They were killed (or maybe had a Fate Worse Than Death) by Crona in their return to the plotline. It was probably just to show that the new-and-improved Crona can, and will, kill a death scythe and its meister for Medusa. Black☆Star worfs Crona after he masters Tsubaki's Shadow Star forms. | |

Full-Frontal Assault: Kaguya is basically naked except for her cloak. The only thing offering any kind of "modesty" besides are the markings on her limbs and torso, although they actually bring more attention to her exposed breasts than away from them. This doesn't stop her from being extremely violent and dangerous. | |

World of Badass: The class focused on in the series is composed of dozens of teenagers (and some even younger!) training and studying to hunt and destroy monsters, and almost every single one of them is a skillful fighter. The teachers of the academy are even more skilled in combat and more. Unfortunately, the villains tend to be just as (if not moreso) capable of putting up a fight. | |

Stealth Pun | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_1e7c47ab | comment |
Stealth Pun: Dr. Franken Stein is a Mad Scientist with an enormous screw through his head, which he turns to keep his mind on the problem at hand. He is also The Corruptible, and the closest person at DMWA to full insanity. In other words... he's got a SCREW LOOSE. In Episode 3, when Death the Kid is seeking souls for Patty and Liz, Lord Death tells him about a witch who's ressurecting mummies in the Tomb of Anubis. She uses her mummies to collect human souls, which she uses to make more mummies. There's even a bit of a graphic showing how five mummies create two mummies each, who create two each, who create two each... she's running something of a Pyramid Scheme. The witches' ultimate weapon is called B.R.E.W. Given all the other music references in this show it should be a surprise to no one that the Werewolf is fought in London | |

Couldn't Find a Pen: Played for laughs, surprisingly for this trope, when Black☆Star is caught sneaking into Stein's office to steal exam answers. He's beaten bloody and hung up for the class to see. When Soul gets his cheat-sheets taken away (though, fortunately, not also beaten bloody), he notices Black☆Star trying to get his attention by starting to write on the wall next to him in his own blood. Soul is hopeful that maybe Black☆Star will write some exam answers...nope, it's only his signature, complete with star in the middle. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: Black☆Star should immediately remind you of another loudmouthed, egotistical kid ninja. Also both have similar reasons for their behavior (being called "demon chid" all their life). Black☆Star is basically a combination of Naruto and Sasuke. Think about it: a hyperactive, knucklehead, kid ninja who's the last of his clan, uses a sword, has crazy markings appear on his face when he in his dangerous, yet powered up form, and even has a special kind of star symbol in his eyes. Black☆Star is supposed to be an exaggeration of the whole Highly-Visible Ninja Hot-Blooded Idiot Hero thing. He does however get better, and can be very threatening when he gets serious. | |

Power Echoes: A rather humurous example with Black☆Star in episode 13. When he breaks out his demon blade form for the first time against Free, everything slows down and an echo of "shadow star... star... star... star" can be heard. Turns out it was Black☆Star repeating the last word over and over again as he passed out mid-attack. | |

World of Symbolism: The big showdown between Death and Asura could be strongly reminiscent of a debate between Christians and Atheists. Death could easily be substituted for God, while the Kishin could be substituted for the devil, or a nonbeliever. It's actually really interesting when looking at it under those pretenses. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Excalibur, who is something of an Infinity +1 Sword, is so awesome, that when a failure student claims him, he becomes THE BEST MEISTER in the school. The problem is he has an insane amount of unreasonable demands that he makes to the point that people generally decide that his power is totally not worth it. The weapon form itself is exceedingly practical and easy to use, and extremely awesome. It's just the PERSONALITY that makes it unmanageable. It's heavily implied that Excalibur is actually an Eldritch Abomination that is the personification of rage. He's just that annoying. Soul. Anyone whose ever done any kind of weapons training knows that having your only cutting edge on the side of your weapon that faces YOU is not good. Scythes are extremely impractical weapons in real life and hard as hell to use in a fight against any other weapon. Traditionally, even spearmen would carry a short sword on them in case the enemy got past the pointy end of the spear (the only part that they were concerned about). The fact Maka can wield Soul and beat up magic and sword users is a testament to her awesomeness. | |

It's pretty much shown that the "Black Blood" in general does this (and can cause a weapon to overwhelm their meister). For example, when Maka's using it and acts Ax-Crazy, her consciousness is basically observing her and finds it embarrassing and Soul has nightmares about absorbing her. | |

Also, when he speaks of the part of his past when he was a street hoodlum (in the same episode), many Gratuitous English words pop up onscreen, including even an aversion of Precision F-Strike (at a point, the word "PUCKIN'" appears). | |

Fusion Dance | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_302730a | comment |
Fusion Dance: The Mizune sisters can combine in various ways. Madness Fusion, the act of fusing with a Clown. It affects both body and mind, making one into a batshit crazy abomination. The only character to have done it so far is Justin Law, although Medusa powered up her snake tattoos at one point by fusing them with the Purple-Dyed Clown. Kaguya and White Rabbit, who are both Clowns, fused together shortly before they died. The result had both of their attacks, White Rabbit's Combat Tentacles , and Kaguya's personality. | |

Brilliant, but Lazy | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_355007c3 | comment |
Black☆Star very quietly and skillfully infiltrates the hideout of the Al Capone gang during the middle of a dinner celebration, and gets the drop on them with effortless ease... but instead of quietly assassinating the villains, he gives a boisterous speech about how awesome he is and then declares that his job is done, right before being chased off by gunfire. He then shows no remorse for it when his weapon partner, Tsubaki, calls him out on it, saying that he was the biggest star in the room. This establishes him as the Brilliant, but Lazy, Small Name, Big Ego, Highly-Visible Ninja. It's further established at the end of the episode, when he challenges the samurai Mifune and despite having trouble at first (specifically because of his flaws) manages to get serious and effortlessly win with a single move, showing that he really is as powerful and skilled as he claims he is... when he can manage to get his act together. | |

Cluster F-Bomb: The English translation of the manga by Yen Press becomes this around Volume 7 with the switch to a new translator. Rather jarringly, characters (especially Black*Star) start dropping F-bombs left and right, with almost every other swear word you can think of in between. Then there's Giriko, whose mouth is by far the foulest. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The manga ends on this note. The heroes win the day but can't fully kill Asura just reseal him, this time on the moon with Crona electing to stay behind to make sure he doesn't get out. What's more Lord Death dies after handing his power over to Kid, making him the new lord of death with Liz and Patty naturally still supporting him. But, in an agreement he had with the witches for their help, Kid abolishes any more hunting of them with Soul being declared the final Death Scythe, and peace seems to be set between the two groups, even Medusa's former cronies get a pardon. Likewise Black Star is now a accomplished ninja with Tsubaki's support, Stein and Marie get together with the latter pregnant with his child, Soul has made peace with himself and embraces his potential even playing the piano again and Maka seems to have... somewhat reconciled with her father and ends the story promising someday she'll find a way to save Crona. | |

Talking Weapon | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_441ccbad | comment |
Talking Weapon: Ragnarok, which can also use its mouth for Crona's Screech Alpha attack. Excalibur is also a talking sword, however much the cast might wish he wasn't. Technically, all Demon Weapons are this, to the point that in the first chapter/episode, Maka is honestly worried when Soul stops talking to her while in scythe mode. | |

Sealed Evil in a Six Pack: The Kisin Asura probably counts; he was sealed in a bag made of his own skin and his blood was drained and taken elsewhere to weaken him. Injecting the bag with black blood unseals him. | |

Worthy Opponent: Despite his love of children, Mifune fights Black☆Star as an equal because of this trope. Eventually. They're not fighting on truly equal terms until their last encounter, as Mifune held back due to his opinion of Black☆Star's youth and attitude. The trope applies once Black☆Star figures out the latter. | |

Four Is Death: The phone number used to call Lord Death is a play on words using this trope. When Crona has a dialogue with their alter ego inside their head, they refuse to answers 42 questions before the alter ego leaves. Of course, 42 in Japanese is a homonym of "to die". | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Black☆Star. Despite being an arrogant jerk that often sets back his and Tsubaki's goal and rubs people (Read: Maka) the wrong way, he is very loyal to his friends: when Tsubaki is fighting her brother, he sits very patiently watching and yells at anyone who disturbs her "show"; he tells Crona that if they are having problems with anyone to let him know, and Black☆Star will take care of them; and when Maka is paralyzed, he and Tsubaki go to track down who did it to her. | |

Characterization Marches On: Over the course of the anime, Soul becomes less hotheaded and more of the laid back 'cool' guy he always strives to be. It's not Character Development because this was never something addressed or called out on, it just happens and nobody notices. He makes Maka the hotheaded on in comparison. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: In the English dub, during a mission that takes place in a magnetic field that turns you into a memory after 20 minutes: "Come on, we've got to prioritize, this show's only got 10 minutes left!" There happened to be 10 minutes left in the episode, too. In episode 37, Soul says something along the lines of "Special training isn't cool. Leave that to characters in shonen manga." | |

Like Parent, Like Spouse | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_4fa68c72 | comment |
Like Parent, Like Spouse: for both Maka and Soul, AND Maka and Crona as a Ship Tease Maka's primary objective is to make Soul have the same power level as Spirit so he can replace her father. Spirit may not like Soul because of how similar he is to himself at that age. With Crona and Maka, while Maka has absolutely NOTHING in common with Crona's biological mother Medusa, she actually has a few things in common with Marie, who basically treats Crona like her own child. Both Maka and Marie are willing to forget the rules to do what is right and stand by the people they care about the most. In the manga, Marie defied Lord Death's orders to help Stein investigate the murder of Joe Buttataki, while Maka defies Lord Death's orders to kill Crona when they were put on his list of evil people for the Academy to hunt down. Also in the anime, they both were willing to do the same thing again for the same people, albeit for different reasons, Marie quit her job to take advantage of a loophole in Lord Deaths deal with Medusa to not send anyone from the DWMA to kill to save Stein from Medusa's madness and Maka disobeyed orders to go help Crona since they volunteered to go to make amends for their betrayal. They even both save their partners from madness with their special soul wavelengths, Marie used healing wavelength on Stein and Maka used her anti-demon wavelength on Soul. Their relationships with Crona are also similar in how kind and gentle they are with them, with the only difference in the anime is that Maka was more willingly to forgive them than Marie wasn't willing do so right away due to Steins condition caused by their betrayal, and said she couldn't trust or forgive Crona until Stein was brought back(though Marie later regretted being so harsh to them and saying that). This is a rare case having more in common with your love interests mother figure than biological mother, but it may be big reason why some prefer Maka and Crona being shipped together over Maka and Soul. | |

Series Goal | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_500c55cf | comment |
Series Goal: The meisters and weapons are supposed to be gathering 99 human souls and 1 witch soul, but this goal becomes mostly irrelevant once the Knight of Cerebus is introduced. Not exactly irrelevant, just not the be-all and end-all for the series. Once Maka and Soul actually get the Death Scythe rank (well, Soul technically) the reality of the position is quickly impressed upon them; Death Scythes exist for a reason, and their abilities are necessary. Which is rather different from the original impression, where it appeared that the position was sought for the sake of it; none of the kids seemed to know what being a Death Scythe involved. At the end of the series the original goal of making Deathscythes is visited again, though with a twist. In the final chapter of manga, they conclude their entire practice of making Deathscythes. | |

Body Horror | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Medusa is capable of inserting snakes into someone's body that all burst out at once on command. Soul has nightmares of bursting out of Maka's body. Crona and Ragnarok. Episodes 7 and 15 come to mind (7 being their first appearance, 15 Ragnarok's 'Black Dragon' transformation upon the "Nidhogg"). The hallucinations caused by Asura's revival involving biting people's faces and ripping the skin off like laffy taffy. Along with the grotesque body forming from a bag of flesh. Tezca's numerous copies of himself fusing back together in some very unsettling ways, with legs and arms in all the wrong places. | |

Power Born of Madness | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_51616227 | comment |
Power Born of Madness: In Chapter 42, Maka and Soul evidently agree that "insanity is the source of strength." The strongest example of this appears to be the black blood, although other characters seem to receive some form of power boost from insanity as well. | |

Guns Akimbo: Death the Kid not only uses twin pistols, but for some reason fires them upside down and using his pinkies to pull the triggers.

After being infected with Ragnarok's black blood, Soul gains access to a special piano that appears to let him use Ragnarok-like sound-resonance in combination with weapon-meister soul-resonance. The powerful resonance of Soul's piano is essential to Maka, Death the Kid, and Black*Star resonating as a team in battle, and Soul later inviting Maka to play it herself gives her anti-demon wavelength a Next Tier Power-Up, upgrading the Witch-Hunt Slash to the Demon-Hunt Slash at the same time. | |

Dark Is Not Evil | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_575fd5e2 | comment |
Dark Is Not Evil: All of Black☆Star and Tsubaki's most powerful techniques revolve around Tsubaki shaping her meister's shadow into a weapon. Sometimes several weapons. Arguably Lord Death, Kid and the GOO (if not all their fellow anthropomorphic... things). At best, they're eccentric (the GOO's manner being very reminiscent of the Grim Reaper), at worst downright scary. Even Kid when he gets suitably provoked, and definitely Lord Death. | |

Sliding Scale of Comedy and Horror: Jack the Ripper is shown travelling the street and finds a girl. It immediately comes up, slashes the girl in half and eats her soul (This is all shown through a Shadow Discretion Shot). Right after Maka and Soul take her down, this is immediately followed with some comedy. How is this not an example of this trope? There are also a few more examples such as: Crona's weapon coming out of their body Tsubaki's brother. Enough said When the witch gets eaten by King Tut in one of the early episodes starring Death the Kid. To describe it accurately, it pulls the witch inside, all you hear are some crunching sounds and as if that wasn't enough there is BLOOD coming out of its tomb. Soul emerging out of Maka's body in his dream Do I even need to mention Dr. Stein? | |

As Long as There Is Evil | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_5dff009d | comment |
As Long as There Is Evil In manga finale, Crona tells Maka that Asura, the embodiment of fear, cannot be killed as long as there is fear in the world. This is why they proceed to seal him on the Moon instead, and it is likely that Lord Death sealed Asura under Death City in the first place for the same reason. The anime pretty much has the same stance. Sure they beat Asura and destroy him. But he claims as long as there's madness and fear he'll never truly be gone. Maka counters however that as long as people have courage, there will always be a way to drive him back. | |

Homoerotic Subtext: Parodied when Black☆Star and Soul team up to fight Death the Kid. In the manga, one of the later villains (Noah) has a Battle Butler who seems to run on Ho Yay. Spirit and Stein are rather worth mentioning. What with Spirit supposedly being a ladies' man, he sure spends a lot of time being subtexty with Stein. Or Spirit is a firm believer in bros before hos. There was that one scene with the cigarettes in the ending credits of the final episode.... Also, possibly Crona and Maka... Umm maybe? | |

For those watching the anime for the first time through the recently released Repeat Show, which so far is just the original episodes with brand new opening and closing sequences, the new opening features characters who don't even appear until the second half of the anime. It also gives away Crona's Heel–Face Turn by showing them alongside the heroes at all times and even helping them take down a giant golem. | |

Bunny-Ears Lawyer | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_61b8f9e2 | comment |
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: A very large amount of the cast, particularly the teachers at the Academy. For instance, Spirit is the most powerful Death Scythe in the world, but is a Lovable Sex Maniac and Bumbling Dad. Stein is the most talented Meister to have ever graduated from the Academy and is a brilliant, amoral scientist, but has a certain tendency to travel around on a swivel chair whenever possible and is a bonafide maniac. Marie has lightning powers and is another powerful Death Scythe, but is so obsessed with getting married that she once tried to start a relationship with a toilet. And Tesca Tlipoca...another Death Scythe who wears a giant bear head mask and can apparently understand a monkey's language. The list goes on and on. | |

Badass Normal: Mifune in the anime. No magical weapons or overt supernatural powers — all he's got is a backpack full of swords, and he still fights both DWMA teachers, Almighty Janitor students and a Kishin on equal footing. The Manga, however, explicitly reveals he has a supernatural connection with his swords. | |

Four-Temperament Ensemble | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_65bc92fc | comment |
Four-Temperament Ensemble: The main and supporting characters. Sanguine: Black☆Star, Patty, Kirikou: Extroverted, cheerful, energetic, and talkative—in Black☆Star's case, he's also pretty egotistical. Choleric: Maka, Ox Ford: Both are very task-oriented and studious, are hard-workers, tend to take the lead, and are very passionate for what they do. Melancholic: Death the Kid, Kim, Harvar: Analytical, organized, practical; all three tend to be the most critical of the cast. Phlegmatic: Soul, Jackie, Hiro: In the two former cases, both are generally laid-back, reserved, witty, and at times indifferent. Hero is quite patient (at least, enough to put up with Excalibur), open-minded, but at times a bit too docile. Leukine: Tsubaki and Liz: Both girls are the most "neutral" of the team, more often than not having to put up with their partners' shenanigans as opposed to getting directly involved in them. That said, they are loyal to said partners, albeit willing to knock them down a peg if needed. | |

Epiphany Therapy: Marie's 'redeeming wavelength' in the anime.

Black☆Star returns the favor to Death The Kid when the Great Old One drives him insane. | |

No Sense of Direction | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_69987960 | comment |
No Sense of Direction: Marie constantly gets lost at DWMA, even though she's supposed to be an Alumna. Crona and Ragnarok kind of use this to their advantage once to get out of trouble, saying they were also lost when they go into a restricted area. It took them two hours to find Crona's dorm room while being led by Marie. Shown again by Marie when her and Crona are on their way to Medusa's hideout. Marie points the two in the direction of a series of confusing signs, the first of which lead to snakes, the second which led to quicksand and the third which led to this creepy (possibly Nightmare Fuel) crayon monster. At the fourth sign, which is pointing in three different directions, is when Crona breaks the chain (before it went downhill) and leads the duo that time. Free also. After infiltrating Baba Yaga's castle the team split up to destroy the Magic Tool Locks that protected Arachne's room. Free was assigned to destroy Lock number 1 of 8. Because of his lack of direction, however, he went instead towards tower 2. However he ended up in tower 8 on the other side of the entire castle. Luckily this let him meet up with Kid and pull off a personality change and stick it to Mosquito rather easily. ...Mostly | |

And special mention to Justin. He's a friggin' guillotine. Who wields HIMSELF in combat. Then there's the fifth Death Scythe, Tezcatlipoca, who is a mirror. And the meister who uses him is a monkey. East Asia's Death Scythe is a magic lamp. Yes. We're not even kidding. | |

Lightning/Fire Juxtaposition | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_6aa1a448 | comment |
Lightning/Fire Juxtaposition: One minor group consists of Kim Diehl & Jacqueline Dupre as the id (fire), Ox Ford & Harvar D. as the superego (lightening) and Kilik & Pot of Fire and Pot of Thunder as the ego (one of the pots is fire based, the other is lightening based). Kilik is also an example on his own, since using two elements symbolises that he's really good at synchronizing with weapons ( at one point he's able to wield four partners at once, when most meisters can only manage one). | |

The Power of Family | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_6aa64734 | comment |
The Power of Family: "Bonds" is a soul-resonating phenomenon exclusive to family members such as parents or siblings. No matter the circumstances, it seems that a family member can always wield another should one be a Meister and another a Weapon (the most famous example being Liz and Patty). Even Soul Resonance attacks are possible like when Maka used Witch Hunter wielding her father, Spirit, against Crona. However, despite that, resonance between family members is not as strong due to a similarity in wavelength. | |

Only the Chosen May Wield | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_6aada778 | comment |
Only the Chosen May Wield: Due to their personality overlap and personal relationships, each weapon can generally only be wielded by whatever meister it is assigned to at the moment. Particularly advanced meisters (including all of the adults on the show) and deathscythes appear to be exceptions to this. Justified in that it is explained at a meister and weapon must tune their souls in order to fight together. The adult meisters and weapons have simply learned how to tune their souls to different partners. Ironically, the trope is averted with Excalibur. He is the most powerful of all weapons yet can easily be wielded by anyone who wants to; the main obstacle to partnering with him is putting up with his obnoxious personality and the strict rules he makes his wielders follow. | |

Puppeteer Parasite: Another lovely trick of Medusa's; After her main body is cut in half, she goes to a modern day suburbia in snake form, and slithers into a random child's mouth; taking over her body and running off. It Only Works Once, so she can't do it again. Later, it turns out she can do it again. Medusa explains to Arachne that it was splitting up her soul (to avoid it being eaten by Death Scythe), not the possession, that she could only to the once, due to the Kishin's soul wavelength at that point. | |

But Not Too Foreign: If Black☆Star's words when he visits Tsubaki's home are to be believed, Maka has at least a little Japanese in her. Since "Spirit Albarn" isn't a particularly Japanese name, it's possible that it comes from her never-seen mother. Which would mean her mother is a rare blonde Asian, or Spirit's hair is dyed, like Cat Valentine. Though one has to remember this is anime we're talking about... | |

And the Adventure Continues | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_716c0b1b | comment |
And the Adventure Continues: They don't fully beat the Kishin, just subdue him enough that he becomes a seal around the Moon. The witches save the heroes, Kid is informed of his dad's passing and eventually takes up his position. Black☆Star goes on to train as usual while Maka just reflects on what happened. At Kid's initiation ceremony, he abolishes the persecution of witches, citing Soul as the Last Death Scythe. Marie is revealed to be pregnant with Stein's child and a celebration is thrown with Soul providing the music. As he does, Maka vows to show Kishin what true courage is and to see Crona again. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_72d30083 | comment |
Cheaters Never Prosper: In episode 14, Soul is caught with answers written on his clothing, so he's stripped down to his underwear. After that, he attempts to cheat by copying off of his neighbors' tests, but runs into the problems of Kid still filling out his name and Patty making a giraffe out of her test. Since the test is only an hour long, he doesn't have enough time to do anything effective and the test is over. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_7335ffa9 | comment |
Grey-and-Gray Morality: On one hand we have the DWMA, the good guys, that hunt down those that eat the souls of innocent humans and bring chaos to the world. But at the same time, they have no problem hunting down witches, even if they did nothing wrong to deserve it, just to enhance their abilities and are not above using threats (like putting explosive collars on captive witches so that they would be forced to cooperate). On the other hand we have the witches, that while tending more towards evil, are more gray than actual black ( they even later help the DWMA defeating the Kishin). However, when concerning Medusa, Arachne and Asura, it is a case of Black-and-White Morality. | |

Furo Scene: Blair is introduced in a furo scene. Also, Tsubaki takes a bath after studying for the big exam. After many chapters with little to no fan service, we get a scene with nearly all the female leads in the shower — which was immediately followed by nearly all the male leads in the shower. Apparently Okhubo had been taking a few lessons in gender equality when it comes to fanservice. | |

Lovecraftian Superpower: A few examples, the series being what it is, but the most obvious is Crona who can use their blood as a weapon. Not only does it become a sword, but if it is cut out of their body, it can be controlled to make blades and needles out of the spilled drops and it makes their body very durable against cutting attacks. | |

Amusing Injuries | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_78c895c8 | comment |
Amusing Injuries: In the first fight between Black☆Star and Kid, Black☆Star still has the head wound Soul accidentally gave him, even after the battle. The injuries last for the usual amount of time, but it's shown as comedic. People nailed by Maka's 'Maka Chop' (Hit in the head with the spine of a book) in the anime, at least, have a book-shaped dent in their heads for a bit, and occasionally tiny decorative fountains of blood, but next scene are back to normal. Death's Reaper Chop does the same thing, except he uses his large, square-edged hands instead of a book. Usually on Death Scythe. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_7a21fc07 | comment |
New Old Flame: Marie and Buttataki Joe in the manga. Temporary; Justin Law kills him shortly after. Because Buttataki has a different role in the anime, the role is given to Stein there instead. Though, that can also be seen in the manga. He's referred to as her "first love" and she's obviously pretty close to him, so it can be construed as at least a subtexty New Old Flame. | |

Legendary Weapon | |

Legendary Weapon: Excalibur is considered the strongest of weapons (which, in this setting, is a race) and his power is considered the stuff of legend. Any Meister who wields him is pretty much unstoppable, and many have tried, as his location and exploits are well documented. What isn't, is the fact that he is completely insufferable and no one can stand him long enough to use him for long. | |

When Kid first meets Soul and Black☆Star: "I already made a reservation. Just in case. At the Death-staurant...that French place on Third Street." -Investigator B.J. | |

Supermode: There's the basic Resonance of Souls, the more advanced Chain Resonance, using the power of the Black Blood, Maka's Witch Hunter and Demon Hunter attacks, Black☆Star's Fey Blade mode and his blade modes after unlocking Masamune's true power, Kid's Lines of Sanzu, Free's werewolf form, Mosquito's younger forms, and many others. From Mosquito's comments about the Grim Reaper, Kid's Sanzu Lines seem not to be a supermode so much as an example of a future 'normal' mode. | |

Humanoid Abomination | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_851dda8f | comment |
The entire storyline with Kid, Crona and the Flying Dutchman. It is here that Kid hears that Death and Asura may be somehow connected (see above, he not unreasonably assumes it's purely metaphorical), and here where Kid and Crona have their disagreement over fear and power, specifically Kid's declaration that to conquer fear Crona should "strengthen [their] soul". Come the end of the series Death and Asura are revealed to be Humanoid Abominations with a personal connection, and Crona has indeed dealt with fear by strengthening their soul, and choosing to imprison Asura for as long as possible. | |

Eldritch Abomination | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_8774fb47 | comment |
Eldritch Abomination: The Kishin. The strongest of them, even Lord Death isn't sure was ever human to begin with. In addition, Eibon is a direct reference to H. P. Lovecraft. Not to mention whatever the hell Noah's got stashed away in the Book of Eibon looks like Cthulhu made of ink. It's now referred to itself as a Great Old One. GOO says there were originally eight "Warlords", three of them eaten by Kishin. These beings all have powers over terror, rage, power, knowledge, and order which drives mortals mad. Oh, and it also calls Death the Kid as "fragment of Law" which sort of explains his obsession with symmetry. Also, Maba-Sama. As tall as, if not slightly taller than, Angelica, has bat-like wings, which are generally useless, since she prefers to hover; and one of the very few close-ups of her face makes her look like she was built by someone from a Tim Burton visual effects studio. | |

Partial Transformation: Pretty much the only way a Weapon can effectively fight without a Meister to wield him or her. Giriko is particularly skilled at this. He's a chainsaw, so of course he can turn his arms and legs into chainsaws, but he can also obtain Instant Armor or Super-Speed by strapping chains to his chest or the soles of his feet. | |

Bait-and-Switch Character Intro | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_8ce9bb7f | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Character Intro: All three of the main meister-weapon groups are introduced like this in their Debut Queue episodes/chapters. The title character, Soul, is the biggest example of it. He's initially introduced as a somewhat shallow young man who insults his partner and talks a lot about being a "cool" guy. It reaches a head a little later when, frustrated at his inability to defeat the not actually a witch Blair, he very despicably and cruelly gives up and switches sides to be with Blair instead of Maka, even dropping Maka in a trash bin and insulting her, saying "anyone would choose someone with a body like Blair's over you and your flat chest." After Maka calls him out for being a bastard, he reveals it was actually just a deception to get Blair to drop her guard and set her up for the kill. After all, cool guys don't cheat on their partners. Black☆Star very quietly and skillfully infiltrates the hideout of the Al Capone gang during the middle of a dinner celebration, and gets the drop on them with effortless ease... but instead of quietly assassinating the villains, he gives a boisterous speech about how awesome he is and then declares that his job is done, right before being chased off by gunfire. He then shows no remorse for it when his weapon partner, Tsubaki, calls him out on it, saying that he was the biggest star in the room. This establishes him as the Brilliant, but Lazy, Small Name, Big Ego, Highly-Visible Ninja. It's further established at the end of the episode, when he challenges the samurai Mifune and despite having trouble at first (specifically because of his flaws) manages to get serious and effortlessly win with a single move, showing that he really is as powerful and skilled as he claims he is... when he can manage to get his act together. Death the Kid's introduction has him chase down a fleeing villain and corner him, only to get side-tracked because Liz and Patty messed up their Ass Kicking Pose, allowing the villain to escape and establishing his Obsessively Organized tendencies. He gets another one later in the same episode when he finds himself unable to attack the evil super-mummy hiding inside a perfectly symmetrical sarcophagus, and is nearly killed before the mummy itself appears in all its asymmetrical Body Horror glory, at which point Kid declares that it makes him feel "violently ill" and utterly destroys it... and the pyramid they're in too. | |

Black*Star's physical condition is second only to the gods... and when confronted with the limits of his human body he grows frustrated and angry. When school nurse Naigus warns him that ongoing use of the uncanny sword will potentially kill him and that he's forbidden from using it, Black*Star picks a fight with Death the Kid to prove his physical condition to himself. His refusal to accept his limitations reminds the staff of someone else who went mad for the same reason, his father, White*Star. | |

Rule of Symbolism | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: The final battle against Asura in the anime version is entirely this, which irritated many fans due to the rest of the series not being like this at all. To make a long story short... the entire team pull out all of their most powerful attacks against the kishin without doing hardly any damage at all, until Maka and Soul are all alone. Maka pulls progressively more desperate techniques, including willing herself to fall asleep and fight him while sleeping so that she won't feel afraid. In the end, however, Maka gives him a speech about bravery and then destroys him with one punch. The symbolism comes into play when you remember that Asura is the Anthropomorphic Personification of fear and paranoia - more power won't make you feel less afraid, neither will surrounding yourself with strong allies, and you can't sleep to escape either because you'll eventually wake up; the only way to defeat fear is to be brave. | |

Monster Clown: All of them. Clowns are the Anthropomorphic Personification of madness, Humanoid Abominations that spread and feed on madness. Following the release of the kishin, they can be produced naturally or artificially. While there are a few clown characters, one clown in particular is notable for plaguing Maka and Justin Law. | |

Take a Third Option | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_950bbfa7 | comment |
Take a Third Option: During the last Mifune vs. Black☆Star fight in the anime. Mifune asks Black☆Star if he will choose the "Path of the Demon" or the "Path of the Warrior". Black☆Star (somewhat predictably) decides that neither path is good enough for him, and choose to forge his own path forward. He never really elaborates on what the path is, but it clearly comes with powerups (the Enchanted Sword grows about a foot longer and glows red.) | |

Odd Couple | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_985e118a | comment |
Odd Couple: Nearly all Meisters and Weapons are opposites of each other, and as they find a medium their power increases. Makes one wonder about Lord Death, looking at his current collection of Death Scythes. Even accounting for Spirit being 'the' Death Scythe, that's an awful lot of contrasting personalities going on amongst the introduced area heads. Azusa's uptight, Marie's a ditz... On that note, who imagines a Grim Reaper carrying a sniper rifle/crossbow, a hammer or a mirror? Puts a slightly different spin on the term "odd couple". One of the reasons that Spirit doesn't go searching for Kishin was along the lines of him being "the only one who can truly be called a Death Scythe". | |

Longer-Than-Life Sentence: Taken to its logical conclusion when the witches' Kangaroo Court sentences Free (who's functionally immortal, Nigh-Invulnerable and was already serving an indefinite sentence when he was introduced and broken out of their jail) to multiple death sentences. Of course, he gets off lightly compared to Death the Kid (the son of the Grim Reaper himself) who they sentence to a million death penalties. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Crona doesn't use soul-resonance like a normal meister—indeed, Crona is constantly at odds with its own weapon Ragnarok and is generally only able to tolerate and use him in fits of madness. Instead, the demon weapon Ragnarok creates its own literal resonance by shrieking at the top of its voice. This perverse alternative to soul-resonance is called screech resonance. | |

Taking the Bullet: Soul takes the bulle- er, sword for Maka. Crona also does this for Maka when Medusa is about to attack her. They then die, sort of. Also, in episode 48, when Asura attacks Kid (or the bystanders in general?) Lord Death takes the shot instead and gets blown to bits. Ouch. Soul does this again for Maka in episode 51, when Asura is just about to deal a finishing blow. Chapter 79 has Sid push Marie out of the way of an attack, costing him an arm in the process. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: While fighting Sid in the graveyard, Black☆Star listens for their opponent's soul wavelength using Tsubaki. Kishin souls are adapted as red, but Sid's soul was blue, hinting at the true nature of their 'Mission.' In the Pride chapter of the Book of Eibon, Excalibur's humility in letting the heroes use him without his provisions, utterly defying the Book's power over sins, is the first hint that he is actually a Great Old One. Asura's soul is said to spread Madness throughout the world. This is an ability of all his kind, and something Shinigami and Kid were/are capable of in their own way but refuse to do. Medusa survives being killed by Stein by using the Madness of Asura's escape. She pulls off the same trick when Arachne turns herself into a disembodied Kishin-like being of madness (and had previously told her sister how she survived her first 'death'). Her death by Crona's hand is also under suspiciously similar circumstances... Numerous times late in the manga, the moon is seen in the background whenever Justin Law praises the Kishin. Guess where the Kishin just so happens to be hiding? One of Kim and Jackie's abilities changes Jackie into a 'broom' that Kim can ride on. Kim is revealed to be a witch. Before she fights Stein and Spirit, Medusa notes the exceptional soul wavelength control of a Death Scythe. This is both a trait of the Death Scythes in general, and Spirit's specialty. This turns up when Soul becomes a Death Scythe himself, and later when Spirit joins the battle on the moon. An early villain tells Kid that he needs to be wary of the Kishin 'closest' to him. Shinigami brushes this off as a metaphor about fear and courage being two sides of the same coin. The hint towards Asura's actual closeness to the school quickly appears to clear this up, and we see Shinigami's figure of speech in how the cast deals with fear. But in hindsight the reference was more literal than Kid realised or his father would admit to. Asura is Kid's brother and they are both in opposition yet very similar to one another. The entire storyline with Kid, Crona and the Flying Dutchman. It is here that Kid hears that Death and Asura may be somehow connected (see above, he not unreasonably assumes it's purely metaphorical), and here where Kid and Crona have their disagreement over fear and power, specifically Kid's declaration that to conquer fear Crona should "strengthen [their] soul". Come the end of the series Death and Asura are revealed to be Humanoid Abominations with a personal connection, and Crona has indeed dealt with fear by strengthening their soul, and choosing to imprison Asura for as long as possible. | |

Made of Iron: Black☆Star mostly. When first introduced, Kid got impaled numerous times and was covered in blood, but just got straight up again and shrugged it off. Though to be honest, most of the main cast have taken great amounts of damage and treated it like it was nothing. Crona. Pretty much impossible to damage through physical means. | |

Fridge Logic | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_9dfd7154 | comment |
Crona. Recognized as ambiguous numerous times by characters within canon itself. The official English translations of the manga and anime use "he" simply because it's the closest English has to a widely used gender ambiguous pronoun note Although using "they" would have been a much better alternative. There is no solid canon support for Crona being any gender, partially thanks to third-person pronouns ("he" & "she") being almost completely unused in Japanese. Word of God is that Crona's gender is unknown. Later translations eventually went with they/them, as this usage became more widely accepted with the greater visibility of nonbinary gender identities. | |

He appears as a shrunken old man with a long pointed nose, but he can shapeshift into the forms his body has taken over the centuries. His 100 years ago form is enormous and very, very tough. His 200 years ago form is grotesque and quadripedal, with an even bigger nose than his other forms. His 400 years ago form is where he crosses the Bishōnen Line : A Lightning Bruiser who looks much like a classic "noble vampire" and can turn into a swarm of bats. His 800 years ago form is a twisted One-Winged Angel that gets promptly offed by Noah. He can also heal himself by drinking the blood of others through his nose. | |

Half-Human Hybrid | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_a2cbad1 | comment |
Half-Human Hybrid: Maka's father is a weapon while her mother was not, but slightly averted in that she doesn't seem to be any different to other humans. In the Soul Eater universe, being a weapon or meister is a part of your genes like your hair color and whatnot. And Maka got the meister gene from her mother. A flashback in the manga has Soul's brother commenting on how their family had just enough of the "Weapon Bloodline" for it to manifest in Soul. In the anime, Maka activated her "Weapon Bloodline" to fight Asura. In the manga, the 'weapon bloodline' mentioned above was the result of Arachne using Eibon's work to create the original Demon Weapons (the Nakatsukasas are direct descendants). So, being a Weapon is genetic but the result of tampering, not 'natural' evolution, as it were. Maka has unusual traits - demonslayer wavelength, Grigori soul - but these are put down to being very rare in humans rather than a result of her dad being a Weapon. | |

World of Weirdness | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_a2f3e380 | comment |
World of Weirdness: The world of Soul Eater is this full stop. Between the Sentient Sun and Moon that are inside the Earth's Atmosphere, the various collection of weird monsters and soul-eating creatures, dangerous magical witches, and people that can weaponize their souls or turn into talking weapons, nothing in it is particularly sane or normal by any definition. Not to mention the world worships the Grim Reaper as its God. This ends up justified by the prequel Fire Force where Shinra, his brother, and his mother essentially remade the Earth during the Great Cataclysm where his thoughts became reality in the image of Shinra's wild inaccurate imagination and musings from a Gadgeteer Genius and Mad Scientist. The World of Soul Eater is effectively a product of wild teenager's imagination made manifest. | |

Clown Species | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_a3e44664 | comment |
Clown Species: Clowns are living embodiments of fear and madness. The first Clown Maka and Soul encounter in the manga does resemble a monstrous circus clown, with a bulbous nose and permanent grin, but later clowns have different forms and act as an unbeatable line of defense for Asura when Shibusen lay a full-on assault of the Moon. | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Excalibur, who is something of an Infinity +1 Sword, is so awesome, that when a failure student claims him, he becomes THE BEST MEISTER in the school. The problem is he has an insane amount of unreasonable demands that he makes to the point that people generally decide that his power is totally not worth it. The weapon form itself is exceedingly practical and easy to use, and extremely awesome. It's just the PERSONALITY that makes it unmanageable. It's heavily implied that Excalibur is actually an Eldritch Abomination that is the personification of rage. He's just that annoying. | |

Motifs | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_aa2cd0c9 | comment |
Motifs: Escaping fear through obtaining power is a recurring theme that shows up as early as Sid-sensei's debut. The first Kishin, Asura, was so afflicted with fear that he started murdering innocent human beings to consume their souls for the power it would give him. His fear remained un-sated... and still does, to this day. Black*Star's physical condition is second only to the gods... and when confronted with the limits of his human body he grows frustrated and angry. When school nurse Naigus warns him that ongoing use of the uncanny sword will potentially kill him and that he's forbidden from using it, Black*Star picks a fight with Death the Kid to prove his physical condition to himself. His refusal to accept his limitations reminds the staff of someone else who went mad for the same reason, his father, White*Star. In an inversion of the motif, when they confront the clown in the Nidhogg factory, Soul and Maka have a heart to heart about madness and come to the conclusion that courage is a kind of madness itself. There are strong religious motifs in Soul Eater. Soul admires the gothic cathedral that he and Maka investigate right before they meet Crona for the first time. The witches have public gatherings known as witches masses. Justin Law wears the zucchetto, mozzetta, and cassock of a church bishop and makes the hammiest displays of religious piety to the god of death. Arachne is described as The Heretic among witches. Resonance, in both the literal sense of sound and the metaphorical sense of emotion and mind. Soul-resonance is the Synchronization of a weapon and its meister—the relationship of a meister and weapon is compared to an electric-guitarist and the guitar's amplifier. Crona doesn't use soul-resonance like a normal meister—indeed, Crona is constantly at odds with its own weapon Ragnarok and is generally only able to tolerate and use him in fits of madness. Instead, the demon weapon Ragnarok creates its own literal resonance by shrieking at the top of its voice. This perverse alternative to soul-resonance is called screech resonance. After being infected with Ragnarok's black blood, Soul gains access to a special piano that appears to let him use Ragnarok-like sound-resonance in combination with weapon-meister soul-resonance. The powerful resonance of Soul's piano is essential to Maka, Death the Kid, and Black*Star resonating as a team in battle, and Soul later inviting Maka to play it herself gives her anti-demon wavelength a Next Tier Power-Up, upgrading the Witch-Hunt Slash to the Demon-Hunt Slash at the same time. Justin Law's headphones invert the pattern, using sound to cut Justin off from everyone around him and preventing him from resonating with anyone. Justin's loud voice and the big speakers of his car appear to be him compensating for this. | |

Halfway Plot Switch: The manga and anime starts with the principle characters capturing 99 souls and 1 witch's soul so any of them can become the new weapon of Lord Death, who is basically the Grim Reaper... too bad! Witches eventually become actual antagonists, and that goal is set aside completely to defeat them. The manga eventually circles back to its original goal, while the anime has an original ending that forgets it. | |

Scars are Forever: Soul gets a large scar during the first fight with Crona; it remains visible on his body for the rest of the series. Also, in the manga Black☆Star ends up with a clean scar that bissects the star tattoo on his shoulder after his last fight with Mifune. Even the healer can't remove it, and Black☆Star essentially claims that's because it represents his Character Development. | |

Catchphrase | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase: Half the cast, at least. Maka says "I'll take your soul!" or something similar (she even says it at the end of each episode preview after the closing credits). Soul does it in her place too, sometimes. "MAKA CHOP!!!!" Black☆Star has his "YAH-HOO!" when he's showing off. "Not a single being in heaven or on earth is as holy as I." (This is a line from the Buddhist canon, believe it or not, alleged to have been spoken by Buddha himself. In Japanese, the first few words are... get this .. "Tenjho Tenge.") Sid likes the phrase, "That was the kind of man I used to be." Of course, before he became a zombie, it was "That's the kind of man I am". Crona has two; "My blood is black", and "I don't know how to deal with [X]." Excalibur's "my legend began in the 12th century", and "FOOLS!." Death the Kid's "Kichiri Kachiri", which could be translated as "Precise and Perfect". Stein's "I want to dissect [X]." "REAPER CHOP''!!!!" Free is a bit rusty at the whole magic thing, so his mishaps are usually accompanied with an emphatic "GODDAMMITSHIT!" As he's using his magic, he often repeats "Wolf! Wolves! Wolf! Wolves!" | |

Abusive Parents | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
With Crona and Maka, while Maka has absolutely NOTHING in common with Crona's biological mother Medusa, she actually has a few things in common with Marie, who basically treats Crona like her own child. Both Maka and Marie are willing to forget the rules to do what is right and stand by the people they care about the most. In the manga, Marie defied Lord Death's orders to help Stein investigate the murder of Joe Buttataki, while Maka defies Lord Death's orders to kill Crona when they were put on his list of evil people for the Academy to hunt down. Also in the anime, they both were willing to do the same thing again for the same people, albeit for different reasons, Marie quit her job to take advantage of a loophole in Lord Deaths deal with Medusa to not send anyone from the DWMA to kill to save Stein from Medusa's madness and Maka disobeyed orders to go help Crona since they volunteered to go to make amends for their betrayal. They even both save their partners from madness with their special soul wavelengths, Marie used healing wavelength on Stein and Maka used her anti-demon wavelength on Soul. Their relationships with Crona are also similar in how kind and gentle they are with them, with the only difference in the anime is that Maka was more willingly to forgive them than Marie wasn't willing do so right away due to Steins condition caused by their betrayal, and said she couldn't trust or forgive Crona until Stein was brought back(though Marie later regretted being so harsh to them and saying that). This is a rare case having more in common with your love interests mother figure than biological mother, but it may be big reason why some prefer Maka and Crona being shipped together over Maka and Soul. | |

Lost in Translation | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: In the original recording, Joe Buttakaki argues with Lord Death about his coffee requirements, requesting Mandheling coffee beans. Mandheling sounds like "mandolin", so Death, confused, holds a mandolin. In the English dub, they change it so both characters just say "coffee beans", meaning it's no longer a miscommunication, and Lord Death holds a mandolin for absolutely no reason! In a similar instance, Lord Death and the Death Scythe Spirit are having a philosophical argument about telling jokes and women's underwear. In the original recording, they compare the importance of repetition in jokes to the repetition in layers of lasagna, which props a helpful popup on the screen to explain the comparison. In the dub, the comparison is taken out of the dialogue, but the popup remains, referring to a lasagna which none of the characters are talking about. | |

Specifically B.R.E.W and the Book of Eibon, and with good reason, as B.R.E.W is whatever you desire it to be, and the Book of Eibon is a collection of magical and dangerous creatures that can be summoned at any time by the user and actually IS Eibon himself at one point. | |

Soul Eating: Humans with the weapon bloodline (essentially a gene which allows them to become an Equippable Ally) can eat the souls of other humans to grow stronger (the good guys only consume the souls of corrupted humans, villains tend to be less picky), so long as they also consume at least one witch's soul. Those that indiscriminately eat other humans slowly become Kishin. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_bd4264a3 | comment |
Slasher Smile: So, so many examples. Medusa's is particularly demonic; Maka's is surprising when you realize just how much control she has over it. The Sun and the Moon BOTH have one! Soul also shows his off a lot, too. In chapter 69, Medusa and Justin Law seem to engage in some kind of Slasher Smile arms race. Don't forget madness incarnate Asura. And Stein whenever he gets a screw loose... Patty sports one when she kicks Black☆Star in the nuts after he unwisely decides to ask for a time-out at the very beginning of their sparring match to get his hands tied up to supposedly make it even. | |

Faint in Shock | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_bee8baee | comment |
Faint in Shock: Death the Kid is Obsessively Organized and is absolutely obsessed with symmetry. This causes him to overreact when his symmetry is disrupted: He faints after Soul cuts a couple of centimetres off one side of his hair, as this meant it was not perfectly symmetrical anymore. He also has a complete breakdown and passes out after he erases too hard and tears his test paper. This seems to happen any time he is not perfectly symmetrical. Liz mentions that if he tried to not use Guns Akimbo, "he'd get a Nosebleed and pass out". However, this only seems to apply to Kid himself. if he encounters an asymmetrical enemy, he's more likely to fight back with Unstoppable Rage. | |

Character Title: Subverted. This interview with Atsushi Ohkubo says the "Soul Eater" in the title refers not to the partner of the true main protagonist Maka, but to an enemy faced towards the end of the story that can devour souls. Surely enough, Crona refers to Asura as the "Soul Eater" in the penultimate chapter, making this an Antagonist Title. | |

Xanatos Gambit | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_c32ff031 | comment |
Xanatos Gambit: Medusa manages to dupe the Sibusen into raiding Arachne's castle and going up against her forces with the whole intention of taking Arachne's body for herself. When two of your enemies are fighting each other, it doesn't matter who wins. Though, as per the trope, she did have a prefered outcome. Which leads to Maka being used as the Unwitting Pawn. An earlier example is during the battle for BREW when Medusa has the Mizune sisters and Eruka retrieve the real BREW before the DWMA and Arachnophobia can get to it and switch it with a fake BREW while the two opposing sides cut each other down fighting for the fake artifact. She later informs the DWMA of the real BREW's location so as to gain their trust as a part of the previously mentioned gambit to get DWMA to trust her. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_c3478f1d | comment |
Badass Bookworm: It's easy to forget under the maniacally grinning, scythe waving badassery, but Maka is a nerd that spends most of her free time reading and has really no idea how to play basketball or to dance without crushing her partner's feet. Don't forget about Ox, he pretty much describes himself as such. Stein probably counts as well. He's the only character other than Maka who's shown actually reading a book on-screen, and also the most powerful meister to ever attend the Academy. | |

Weapon Wields You | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_c5011a76 | comment |
Weapon Wields You: Crona in Soul Eater has a sword named Ragnarok that is physically part of their (it's hard to tell) body (via his essence being blended with their blood). They always follows its directions, and during fight scenes is seen to be being dragged around by it. It's pretty much shown that the "Black Blood" in general does this (and can cause a weapon to overwhelm their meister). For example, when Maka's using it and acts Ax-Crazy, her consciousness is basically observing her and finds it embarrassing and Soul has nightmares about absorbing her. | |

Compliment Backfire | |

Compliment Backfire (or possibly Compliment Just-As-Planned): After Crona devastates a whole city using the black blood, Medusa makes dinner(!) and tells Crona how proud she is(!!). Crona freaks out, first attacking Medusa for her hellish experiments and forcing them to abandon Maka, the only person who made Crona happy, then for acting so strangely ("Who are you?! What have you done with my mother?!"). The Clown is pleased: Crona is now completely independent and able to receive the Kishin and Medusa's vectors indicate she's not quite dead. | |

I Will Wait for You: Non-romantic (unless you ship them) version. Crona makes this sort of vow to Maka when, right before they make their Heroic Sacrifice and imprison themselves alongside Asura, she tells them that she'll come back for them someday and tells them to wait for her. The series ended right after, but on the hopeful note that they may yet be reunited, someday. | |

Magic Skirt: With the frequency that she is thrown rolling backwards and all the tumbling she is doing, it's quite surprising that Maka hasn't become the queen of Panty Shot with that short little skirt of hers. The manga averted this for a bit, but later chapters have played it straight. | |

Charles Atlas Superpower: Humans in Soul Eater are often capable of superhuman levels of might with proper training, and some like Black Star push it up to eleven by committing feats that defy the laws of physics.

Spoiler Opening | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_cd83fa5b | comment |
Spoiler Opening: Subverted. In the second opening, we see Soul holding an unconscious Maka. In the series, it's actually Soul who falls unconscious at a pivotal moment, and Maka is the one who must save him. The fourth ending is actually a Spoiler Ending. For those watching the anime for the first time through the recently released Repeat Show, which so far is just the original episodes with brand new opening and closing sequences, the new opening features characters who don't even appear until the second half of the anime. It also gives away Crona's Heel–Face Turn by showing them alongside the heroes at all times and even helping them take down a giant golem. | |

Shown again by Marie when her and Crona are on their way to Medusa's hideout. Marie points the two in the direction of a series of confusing signs, the first of which lead to snakes, the second which led to quicksand and the third which led to this creepy (possibly Nightmare Fuel) crayon monster. At the fourth sign, which is pointing in three different directions, is when Crona breaks the chain (before it went downhill) and leads the duo that time. | |

Badass Longcoat: Maka. With a sweet new white one to parade around in school, as of joining Spartoi. Special mention to Death the Kid in the manga; during the beginning of the Baba Yaga's Castle arc he temporarily sported a trenchcoat with the same closures and shoulder-decals as his blazer and a collar like the cloak he sometimes wears on outings. It was invisibly ditched before he could fight in it, but he still looked even more badass than usual in it. No sign of it in the anime, though. | |

Inconsistent Translation: A bit of a minor one, but the English dub alternates between referring to some of Tsubaki's various forms by their English names (chain-scythe, ninja star) and their Japanese ones (kasari-gama, shuriken). | |

Cloud Cuckoolander: Excalibur. Explains why no one tries to wield him, ever, despite being the most powerful of all the weapons. And Patty. So very, very much. Giraffe! Not to mention Marie, willing to marry a toilet just so she won't be an Old Maid. Free got himself sent to witch prison for the sole purpose of digging out with a spoon. He then found out that witch prison serves meals with chopsticks. Though at least Free has the excuse of being immortal. A few years of digging out of prison with a spoon wouldn't have really amounted to much in the long run. He probably hatched the idea out of sheer boredom. Lord Death, although a lot of it is apparently Obfuscating Stupidity. Practically everyone in the series is this to a greater or lesser extent. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Several of the characters in the anime get this. They're not really any less competent, but many of them don't reach the heights of power their manga counterparts did, due to the series having a Gecko Ending. Crona/Ragnarok never becomes a kishin. On the other hand, they manage to keep up their sanity, so they come out ahead there. Soul never becomes death scythe. In the manga he killed Arachne and devoured her soul to become one, but in the anime Asura betrays and eats her instead. Death the Kid never succeeds his father, due to the latter being Spared by the Adaptation. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds: Soul and Maka. Maka and Black☆Star; although somewhat more jagged than their mutual relationship with Soul, mostly due to a clash of personality (they were at each other's throats during chapter 33 in particular), it's no less real. Crona and Ragnarok too, at least in the anime. | |

Shinigami | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_da78e9a0 | comment |
Shinigami: Interestingly, only Lord Death and his son are directly referred to as this. Meisters and Weapons have varying origins; some are born in Death City, and some Weapons were "found" as humans. It's a blurry line, as Maka is the daughter of a Meister and her Weapon Partner. The Funimation dub refers to Lord Death and Kid as Reapers, instead. Thanks to the manga explaning some things, it seems now to be more clear. Grim Reapers have distinctive souls, and there are only two in the cast - Lord Death and Kid - and it seems to be a race rather than a designation. The Weapons are descended from experiments by Arachne to fuse the souls of humans with the transformative souls of witches - their ability to switch between human and Weapon forms is genetic. The anime uses Maka's parentage to give her special abilities, whereas the manga has not; she is apparently a normal human, albeit one with a few rare traits and a very handy infection. That being said, the manga hadn't yet specifically ruled out the possibility of Maka having latent weapon powers yet and it is a shonen series so really it's still up in the air. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_daf4da31 | comment |
Anime Hair: While both Soul and Black☆Star have spiky hair (though the former lampshades it in Soul Eater Not! when he's shown to have lost his hair gel), their hairstyles pale in comparison to Ox Ford's sheer pillars. During the invasion of Arachne's castle, Ox pretty much outright says that his pillars are the source of all of his powers. When he breaks them off (not rip; break, like they're made of ceramic), his soul actually starts weakening. | |

Ship Tease | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: There are numerous potential couples in this series. Maka is very devoted to both Soul and Crona, who reciprocate her sentiments. Further, Maka is blatantly jealous whenever other women have intimacy of some kind with Soul, such as Blair throwing herself at Soul to "play" or Dr. Medusa claiming Soul has confessed inner worries to her that Maka knows nothing about. Tsubaki and Black*Star both have quiet and obvious moments, such as Tsubaki chastising Black*Star not for peeping on her in the bath but for being too obvious about it. Medusa tries to seduce Stein into madness, but she has a Foil in Stein's Old Flame, Marie. The first Repeat Show ending features scenes of the main meisters spending time with their weapons—except for Maka, who is positively anguished over Soul's absence—set to a wistful ballad. | |

Standard Female Grab Area | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_e192c0a7 | comment |
Standard Female Grab Area: Sort of played straight during the introduction of and subsequent first fight with Stein. Stein grabs Maka by one of her ponytails at one point, almost completely immobilizing her. While this is certainly more effective (and more painful) than the arm, one would usually expect that a strong Action Girl like Maka would be perfectly capable of throwing a few elbows into Stein's stomach or something. Had the size of Stein's soul not made her sink to her knees in fear and had she not exhausted her strength in using (what was at the time) a technique that was her most powerful and which she was still inexperienced in, then Maka might have attempted an escape. | |

Our Souls Are Different | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_e294a0be | comment |
Our Souls Are Different: They're little blue orbs that appear when someone is killed. Eating them makes you more powerful but also slowly turns you into a twisted monster; however, Demon Weapons can consume tainted souls and Witch souls with no negative side effects. While a person is still alive, their soul manifests as an orb surrounding their body, visible only to people with Soul Perception. The size of this orb is a rough indication of someone's power. | |

Animal Motifs | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_e2ccee25 | comment |
Animal Motifs Medusa and Arachne both have the motifs of predatory animals (snake and spider), whereas their henchmen have the motif of their prey. Frogs (Eruka) and mice (the Mizune sisters), whose names are the Japanese words for "frog" and "mouse" with their syllables reversed (kaeru and nezumi) for Medusa. Mosquito for Arachne. Kim has a raccon motif and Angela is associated with chameleons. In fact, every Witch seen so far has a clear Animal Motif (with the exception of Mabaa). Noah is associated with bugs. To be more precise, greed!Noah with caterpillars/grubs and wrath!Noah with ants and stag beetles. | |

Ass-Kicking Pose | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_e2e80e71 | comment |
Death the Kid's introduction has him chase down a fleeing villain and corner him, only to get side-tracked because Liz and Patty messed up their Ass Kicking Pose, allowing the villain to escape and establishing his Obsessively Organized tendencies. He gets another one later in the same episode when he finds himself unable to attack the evil super-mummy hiding inside a perfectly symmetrical sarcophagus, and is nearly killed before the mummy itself appears in all its asymmetrical Body Horror glory, at which point Kid declares that it makes him feel "violently ill" and utterly destroys it... and the pyramid they're in too. | |

Cigarette of Anxiety: Doctor Stein tends to do this when he needs to calm down. It's subverted once after his second fight with Medusa, where rather than calming down he's has a bout of Laughing Madness because of the Kishin being released. This is later exploited to frame him for the murder of BJ, by leaving a packet of his favorite cigarettes (which the local shopkeeper orders in for him specially) at the scene. | |

Art Evolution: Very noticeable in the manga. The art gets a little more complex and detailed as the series goes on, and character's faces grow a little longer, their eyes not as large. There are some things that do get simpler, though, such as Maka's pigtails. | |

Expy | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: So many: A fair amount of the characters bear a strong physical resemblance to several characters from B.Ichi, Ohkubo's first manga. For example, Emine◊ resembles Crona◊. All Black☆Star needs is an orange jumpsuit and blonde hair. Speaking of Black☆Star, his father White Star sure looks an awful lot like Kakashi. Arachne bears a strong resemblance to Lulu. She also looks very much like Lust except with a different hairstyle. Dr. Franken Stein seems to be an expy of a number of different characters, as follows: First, he seems to be a Composite Character between Dr. Victor Frankenstein as well as his monster. He greatly resembles Shaman King's Faust VIII. Mostly, he is very similar to Kakashi. Let's see... they're both badass genius prodigies with silver hair, both have a stupid thing happen to them on their first appearance (the eraser trick gag with Kakashi, Stein falling over in his swivel chair), both give their students a dangerous, high stakes test early in the series (Kakashi's bell test, Stein's remedial lesson), both have lightning powers (Kakashi's signature move, Stein's Soul Force attack), and both were loners as children (Stein because he was Axe-Crazy, Kakashi because he was an arrogant I Work Alone type). Nobody sees Stein's resemblance to Juji Kabane? I mean just◊ look◊! Marie Mjolnir bears a great resemblance to 1930's bomb fetishist Nice Holystone, to the extent that they're both voiced by Colleen Clinkenbeard in the English dub. | |

A-Cup Angst | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_e621b159 | comment |
The title character, Soul, is the biggest example of it. He's initially introduced as a somewhat shallow young man who insults his partner and talks a lot about being a "cool" guy. It reaches a head a little later when, frustrated at his inability to defeat the not actually a witch Blair, he very despicably and cruelly gives up and switches sides to be with Blair instead of Maka, even dropping Maka in a trash bin and insulting her, saying "anyone would choose someone with a body like Blair's over you and your flat chest." After Maka calls him out for being a bastard, he reveals it was actually just a deception to get Blair to drop her guard and set her up for the kill. After all, cool guys don't cheat on their partners. | |

The Team | |

The Team: A complicated example. Maka's Resonance Link team consists of herself (The Hero and The Leader), Black☆Star (The Big Guy), and Death the Kid (The Smart Guy, maybe with a bit of Sixth Ranger as well). However, there are also their weapons, that all have their own roles. Soul is Maka's scythe, and is The Lancer. Tsubaki is Black☆Star's sword, and is The Heart. Liz and Patty are Kid's guns, and are the Only Sane Woman and the Cute and Psycho one, respectively. Meanwhile, the sensei have Stein (Team Dad for the above) double as The Leader and The Smart Guy, Spirit as The Lancer, Sid as The Big Guy Nygus as the Combat Medic, and Marie as The Heart. Membership can also vary depending on the mission, such as when Spirit has to stay at the school or Azusa comes in as Mission Control. | |

Witch Classic: Blair the Cat fits into this, although she's technically a cat with strong magic (and thus the ability to shapeshift into a Cat Girl form). Angela (a child witch) is the only other non-antagonistic witch in the series who wears black. The rest of the witches are either a Wicked Witch (and wear the standard outfit, but modified with an Animal Motif and different colours) or avert the trope entirely (particularly Kim, although her non-witch partner just happens to have a flying broom form). | |

Free also. After infiltrating Baba Yaga's castle the team split up to destroy the Magic Tool Locks that protected Arachne's room. Free was assigned to destroy Lock number 1 of 8. Because of his lack of direction, however, he went instead towards tower 2. However he ended up in tower 8 on the other side of the entire castle. Luckily this let him meet up with Kid and pull off a personality change and stick it to Mosquito rather easily. ...Mostly | |

Moment Killer: During the scene in the infirmary shortly after their first battle with Crona, Maka is shown standing beside Soul's bed and starts to tear up while looking at an unconcious Soul. She just about gets to finish making a heroic promise before Black☆Star literally crashes into the room and starts strangling Soul on his bed. Also, when Maka meets Crona in the desert in episode 39, she decides to forgive Crona and they share a hug when Soul is suddenly annoyed and just wants to get the heck out of there. :At the very end of the manga, Excalibur tells Kid that coming into his full power as a Shinigami has led to his father's death. He then inspires Kid with a big heroic speech, which segues directly into deciding what he wants to eat (interrupting Kid's own speech in the process.) | |

Mobile City: In the anime, Death City is revealed to have legs and to be able to get up and walk around. This is set up early, with Dr Stein pointing out that the only way for Death to chase the Big Bad would be if Death City grew legs and started walking, lampshading the ludicrousness of such a thought and making it so that no-one would assume that it could, in fact, happen. | |

Never Say "Die" | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_f51c5f3c | comment |
Never Say "Die": Oddly enough, this trope is present in the English dub when Crona's training as a child with the baby dragon "little one" comes up. Flashbacks show Medusa ordering them to "defeat" rather than kill it. This is strange, given that other parts of the dub seem to have no problem mentioning death. Medusa probably figured that telling Crona to kill the "little one" would have freaked them out even more. | |

Anthropomorphic Personification | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_f76b8969 | comment |
Anthropomorphic Personification The Clown, who is madness made flesh. As of now, it been explicitly stated that Lord Death is an Eldritch Abomination / Anthropomorphic Personification of death, and his actual name is Death. Kid is actually a fragment of him, given a unique personality and independence, and Lord Death ceases to exist once Kid comes into his full powers. Kid himself just looks like a normal teenage boy. According to Kid, this was intentional on the part of Lord Death during Kid's creation, and his appearance is likely to help him get closer to humanity than Lord Death ever could. | |

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Asura is defeated in the anime because he cannot comprehend the concept of courage. Medusa seems to genuinely not get why Spirit and Stein are so disgusted by the way she speaks about Crona. While not evil, Crona was raised in a very evil environment and as a result is completely baffled by the lack of abuse received from the gang at the DWMA. Stein has a relevant line when witch Medusa confesses her love for him: | |

Weird Moon | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_fa686f29 | comment |
Weird Moon: In addition to a Weird Sun. Both have faces, the sun laughs ominously and the moon occasionally drools blood. Additionally, the Moon is situated only a little bit above the clouds, close enough to fly to. Its face isn't just for show, either. A cave system can be entered via the nostrils. Its mouth can open. Thanks to Crona, it loses a tooth. Naturally, people are only surprised by the last part. Later it becomes the Can for Asura made of a black blood sphere, the moon appears perpetually eclipsed—except for the eye staring out from the gloom, which can cause further Paranoia Fuel, or inappropriate hilarity over its new semblance to a giant, floating boob. More weird moon shit: Early in the manga, the moon is briefly impaled on two of Death City's towards. And yes, it bleeds. | |

He gets angry and more than ever he teases Crona, who still can't defend themself. And then later on when Crona apparently kills Medusa. You really can't say that the bloodbath that followed wasn't very much deserved. | |

You Killed My Father | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_fb6b207f | comment |
You Killed My Father: In the anime, Mifune killed White☆Star, Black☆Star's father, and Black☆Star eventually defeats him. Though in something of a departure from trope, Black☆Star isn't interested in revenge — rather, Mifune tries to kill Black☆Star because Black☆Star is following in his father's footsteps — his father nearly became a Kishin. It's averted in the manga, however, in which Sid was the one who killed Black☆Star's entire family after they turned to evil, and is now the closest thing Black☆Star's got to a surrogate father. In the anime Sid did still kill the rest of Black☆Star's family, but after Mifune killed White☆Star. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: And how! The witches seem to be named after animals; especially women in Greek Mythology associated with animals. Kishin Eggs are a mishmash of historical/fictional/mythological antagonists. The weapon people, who are usually named after mythological and/or video game weapons: Marie Mjolnir, Masamune, Ragnarok, Excalibur, Soul Eater, etc. Though Excalibur is stated (at least in the anime) to be the Excalibur in Arthurian legends. Two of the students are named after Western Universities (Ox Ford and Harvar D. Eclair, Oxford and Harvard respectively). Mosquito's Police Stinger (both the band The Police and their singer Sting) He is also, appropriately, a vampire. Though one of his transformations has him taking on a more 'traditional' look rather than the insect thing. Unwisely, Liz and Patty point out this look is 'boring' and he "looked stronger before". Blair's Smashing Pumpkin Sid Barrett's The Living End. Patty and Liz's surname might be a dual pun on the Thompson Sub-Machine Gun and the Thompson Twins. Blair's name can be seen as a reference to The Blair Witch Project. In the first chapter, Maka is actually seen carrying around a folder entitled "Maka's Blair Witch Project". On top of that, Maka Albarn is named for Blur frontman Damon Albarn, who voices 2D (a Soul Eater look-alike) for Gorillaz. Sid Barett (Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd) and Kim Diehl (Kim Deal of The Pixies). Kilik's Soul Resonance: Aphex Twin. Justin Law (Cantonese pop singer Justin Lo) The reference is more obvious when you see the names in katakana). Black Star is the name of a Hip Hop group formed by Talib Kweli and Mos Def. Coincidence? It's possible, but given the massive number of music references made with every other character in the series, it seems likely that the band is Black☆Star's namesake. Even more telling, this would round out the three main teams by giving each a musical reference (Damon Albarn for Maka and the Thompson Twins for Kid). Black Star is also a song by Radiohead. In a theme that isn't part of a Shout-Out, all three named members of the Star Clan are named a color and then "Star." Black☆Star, his father White☆Star, and his cousin Red☆Star (though he generally goes by the less obvious Akane Hoshi). Dr. Franken Stein. Need we say more? One Monster of the Week had an attack called Nine Inch Nails. That Monster of the Week 's name is Frey D. Sadako Eibon is named after a character who happens to be a sorcerer in Clark Ashton Smith's story The Door to Saturn. Eibon also wrote "The Book of Eibon" which chronicled his life and was filled with magical spells and rites. The little girl Rachel may have been a reference to Jacob's wife Rachel in the Bible. (Especially considering the obvious reference to Eve, the serpant, and the apple shortly after Rachel's body was taken over by Medusa.) Noah, the collector. Another well-known Noah also spent time collecting things—animals for his Ark. Kishin Asura may be a reference to a group of power-seeking dieties in Hinduism called Asura or Ahura. | |

| Soul Eater (Manga) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: A few. Remember all those grave markers in the Death Room? The anime ending strongly implies those are all the graves of kishin. Remember when Soul mentioned, right back in the very beginning, Lord Death's Seven Lights? Neither did Noah. Anime only: Maka, Soul, Black☆Star, and Tsubaki see who can make a basket for rights to defeat Asura. Maka makes it. In episode 9 of the anime, in Excalibur's first appearance, he asks Black☆Star and Death the Kid if they know what his hat is. 23 episodes later, he finally answers the question: It's an english seaweed roll. A brick joke from within the same episode of the anime: episode 28 is named "The Sword God Rises - Does It Have A Sweet Or Salty Taste?", which seems like a meaningless, gibberish question. At the end of the episode it turns out it was talking about a candy that Mifune gave to Maka. The answer? Salty. | |

Pet the Dog: Upon hearing that Maka was injured in a battle and is now bedridden, Mifune gives Black☆Star a 'get well' candy to give to her. Medusa too can have some kindhearted moments, prompting Soul to ask, "Why would someone who could say something so kind decide to mess up the world? Are you really that cold-hearted?" Medusa doesn't respond. Unlikely to be a true example, as it's just Medusa being a very cruel Manipulative Bitch using a supposed parent-child bond with Crona against the kids, Maka in particular, to gain their favour. | |
