Soul Eater

[Archangel]

Soul Eater is a mecha anime now, spread the word

I wasn't a huge fan of such an abrupt ending to the Mifune/Black Star rivalry but it's not like anything i haven't seen before in a shonen anime so i can live with it

Lol i totally called it, i knew they were gonna add legs to the city ever since Stein suggested it many episodes ago but they went ahead and turned it into a mecha for extra awesomeness.

The fight between the 2 robots was incredibly stupid and i loved it. I laughed through all of it till the point the kishin God was eaten by the city, after that i fell from my chair ( true story )

Haven't enjoyed a Soul Eater episode like this in a long time, i hope they keep the quality to these standards for the next final episodes

how many eps they making of this does anyone no ?

[Nadouku]

The series should end around episode 51, and a second season is unlikely, but...

[gos27]

k thank you !

I'm hoping for something along the lines of what they're doing with the second season of FMA but it's really only wishful thinking

[Buffalobiian]

The thing is FMA deviated quite early, so that anime for the most part was significantly different from the manga, meaning that a remake would be less of a repeat.

As for shows that follow through, then come up with an anime-original ending, chances are less likely IMO.

So wait, if Eibon's tool made the Shibusen a giant mecha out to destroy Asura, does that mean Shibusen is a "weapon" now? I mean, it is, in an obvious sense. But is it a weapon capable of sealing souls?

[Buffalobiian]

I don't believe it's a weapon. It's as you say, a walking mecha, much like Baba Yaga Castle. It's not capable of performing soul resonance or anything, so I wouldn't consider it the same type of being as Soul or Patty.

I didn't really mind the fight in the beginning, but it feels like they're rushing it a bit. It's too bad there won't be a 2nd season likely, because it feels like they need it.

The beginning of the end:

Episode 48 - Tsubaki-Hatsuyuki

[Nadouku]

Awesome episode between the gods, although Asura did a very "good" move by aiming for the weak. How ruthless of him! Black Star's entry was kind of dummed down this episode, so he didn't get much action to boot.

Someone forgot to put this into the En Fuego section.

Someone forgot to put this into the En Fuego section.

It has been, for a few months now, the custom to have the latest thread of the En Fuego series here in General Anime, and the older threads in En Fuego. This is the latest until the next episode (a week from now).


Interesting enough episode, even if Asura's move was to be expected. Black Star certainly appeared a little bit more stupid than he normally is (like a shuddering reminder of Naruto), but I suppose that's mainly because he didn't have much of a role in this episode anyway.

[Buffalobiian]

Though I like seeing Shinigami fight in pissed-off mode, I love how he switches back and forth between that and, well "normal"/dorky mode. It helps create some dynamics in an otherwise fairly alright fight. He did bring out a new move, so that was pretty cool I guess.

I agree with the Black Star comments. It's almost like they're trying a bit too hard to show his "straighforwardness".

The cheap shot was to be expected, though I still think Shinigami could have put up another yellow shield, had his defeat not been necessary to make way for our main trio.

Excalibur was pretty awesome this episode.

I lolled when Black Star took one in the balls.

Last night I found that link on TokyoTosho:

Soul Eater - 49 [1280x720 - H264]​.mp4 279.98MiB @ nyaatorrents

Be aware that it isn't a high quality sub, with words missing, mispells or unfinished sentences. Also some seemingly strange translations at times (though I'm not one to understand enough)

But for a dose of Soul Eater, that translation was ok, it was more than possible to extract some pleasure from it.

You've been warned though, have fun!

PS: will update whenever Tsubaki is out

[Kraco]

With less words missing:

Episode 49 - Tsubaki-Hatsuyuki

[David75]

I think I do not need to update my first post, as yours is right after.

I'll watch that one this evening, thanks

[Nadouku]

Fine episode, and a strong one to boot. Asura is just toying around with them, as he could have gotten serious and tried to finish them off. Soul's in a pinch right now, as his soul has been consumed by the madness. Lets see if Maka can rescue him from it.

[Kraco]

Asura is just toying around with them, as he could have gotten serious and tried to finish them off.

That's not actually guaranteed. Power wise I have no doubt he could have finished them, even though he seemed to be spending a lot of effort to build the barrier, but it seems to me like he's losing screws from his head a bit faster than normally. So, whether he could have mentally controlled himself enough to kill them, is another matter. Toying with them might have been just an aspect of his madness.

In any case he's one tough dude.
