Story - 9:
The reason I give the story a 9 is because of its unique and intriguing plot. I mean, I never really thought of people turning into weapons, never mind a school where they actually teach you skills in order to eat witch's souls! The only reason I do not give the storyline a perfect 10 is solemnly because the story should have progressed more into detail and define the situation and multiple conflicts a bit more deeply. Another of SE's good points are the intervals between conflicts. This really allows the viewer to relax in between conflicts and not get tired
...
of 30 straight episodes of just fighting, it just sort of gives you a laugh in a serious time in the anime.
Art - 10:
To be honest, I really do enjoy the art in Soul Eater. Like before, it has a very defined and different style that not many shounen are able to acquire. It's very edgy but a bit comedic, which is not like many shounen which are much more serious.
Sound - 10:
I absolutely adore the audio on this anime! It is very rare to find good english dubs, but this anime should receive an award for it! The character's voices generally syncs with their personalities and appearance. Another good point in the sound is the music. The music can range from alternative to relaxing, which really pumps up the anime. The ending themes really get you wanting to see more and the opening themes make you get anxious for what is to happen next!
Character - 8:
The characters overall are very unique and not bland and cliche like much other anime. Every character has their comedic and admirable quirks, and very unusual and fun personalities. The only thing I want to see more of is character development from characters outside the main circle like Kilik or Jacquline. They seem to have shown a bit here and there, but never a real connection towards the viewers.
Overall:
The general score for this anime is a 9. The anime itself is very heart-lifting and hilarious, but can also deeply get into conflict. The anime surely made a good impression on me, it's basically now a tradition to re-watch Soul Eater with a cold can of coke and some microwaveable popcorn. I highly suggest it for those who are looking for a good laugh and some awesome and unique supernatural action!
