    Black Star is a total moron about anything outside of fighting (which he's a genius at) so I'd guess he doesn't see them. Whereas Stein and Maka seem to fight more intellectually, Black Star is all instinct. Even if he could see them, would he really look for information he could get out of them or even care at all?

    Are only technicians able to see them, and not the weapons?

    I don't think so, since both technicians and weapons need the skill to tune their souls together to create something like a Witch Hunter. I believe seeing other's soul is an extension off that skill. As Stein said before, he can see other's wavelength and tune his to theirs to neutralise their attack.

    If it's bigger than his he would.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    That's a good question, I was assuming that only the Meisters were able to see them, but maybe the weapons too, and it goes without saying that also the Shinigamis should. But so far, all seems to point to only the Meisters, since they have been defaulting to them so far... I think Tsubaki was wondering about Black Star... if weapons would be able to see them, I would think that Tsubaki would be capable. With that said, I don't think this anime would have a strict rule about it, since it's whacky enough to bullshit it's way through any given situation.

    I didn't think Soul was able to see it, just Maka. So then I'd assume only Technicians could see them

    That's a hasty conclusion, based on one weapon. Soul is competent enough but hardly any model student. Perhaps if somebody told him it's cool to see the souls, he would train to do so...

    If somebody told Black Star all big men have seen the souls, he would also strive to learn the skill. However, I reckon this series works better when those dudes and dudettes are somewhat flawed in various ways.

    I laughed a lot.

    Between constantly asserting that Liz and Patty are "from the streets, yo" to all the incredibly stupid things Black Star and Soul were doing.

    The part that really got me was when Black Star caught Soul with his head, squeezed his hair together to stop the bleeding, and then struggled to lift Soul, causing him to spout a fountain of blood that increased every time he strained harder.

    Patty's psycho laugh makes a bit more sense now though. She probably is an insane killer, but now laughs it off since she has the easy life.


    We also got a very clear answer on our question of who can see souls and who can't among the three teams. Tsubaki is still a little unclear, but if Black Star can't, it's either a special skill only the highly trained or disciplined can see, and it doesn't stick to "technicians can, weapons can't."

    A great episode. I wonder though why Black Star and Soul were so totally incompatible considering they are otherwise so similar: One wants to be Cool and one Big, and both ready to do goofy deeds for that end. You'd think they would have at least some harmony of souls. Unless it's so that the souls indeed need to be quite different yet supporting of each other in order to work in appropriate harmony. In that case the similarity between Soul and Black Star would explain this ep.

    In any case Tsubaki is a real saint to tolerate someone like Black Star. That guy is a total and complete idiot.

    It's because they are so alike that they aren't compatible at all. Both of them are attention whores who want to do things Cool and Big.

    If they are both trying to run the whole show and...well, show off, then they're competing rather than harmonizing. All ego, and like Black Star keeps repeating, you can't have two stars.

    Tsubaki works because she's more than happy to let Black Star lead. She has infinite patience and tolerance, at least so far. Maka and Soul work for a different reason. Maka wants to succeed, and Soul wants to do everything "cool." They are towards the same goal, but compliment each other since Maka doesn't mind being a little to the side as long as everything goes smoothly and Soul is happy to let her take the lead as long as it all looks very cool (and with Maka's skills at scythe wielding, it usually does). Maka and Soul share the stage, equally.

    Soul Eater: News

    Just making this thread so that people can talk about interesting news stories or articles that concern Soul Eater.

    With that said, apparently there are two anime specials being made for the series:

    The official Japanese website for the Soul Eater anime seres has announced that two specials will air in Japan in two weeks. The "Clip! Clap!" special will air on May 28 at 26:50 (effectively 2:50 a.m. the next day), and the "Ninki Bakuhatsu! Soul Eater Oitsuke! Oikose! Saki made Misemasu!" special program will air on June 1 at 10:30 a.m.
    http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...o-air-in-japan

  12. #132
    hmm...is this a normal occurance, for a program to have 2 special episodes like that? Does it mean that Soul Eater is really popular in japan?

  13. #133
    Certainly not a normal occurance I think. What I want to know is if this is similar to the "Naruto one hour specials" which is simply 2 episodes aired back to back, or will this specials will simply be new material in addition to the series episodes.

    But wasnt it mention that their Souls wherent synchronized, thus the reason the first Soul Resonece went totally failure?
    And I did also love the last scene in this episode, for just some reason...

    Are you referring to episode 4 where Soul and Maka used Resonance of Souls? If so, it actually succeeded, and you could see the Witch Hunter Scythe. Maka was just clumsy and directed the attack at Black Star instead.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
