They call Kim a witch but I think they mean "witch" not an actual witch.
From chapter one, Medusa is still employed as the nurse, Sid is not a zombie, BlackStar is missing a scar or two, etc. I know I haven't been keeping up with the main series, but unless I'm missing a lot, Soul Eater Not! takes place before the main storyline even begins.
You're right, i had forgotten why i reached that conclusion as well in the first chapter
A good point. I completely forgot Medusa was mentioned, which established the timeline.
So, they call Kim a witch simply because she's eager to ask for money? That's bullying!
that's not only harsh, it's suicidal. using 'witch' as an offensive slur for someone who is greedy creates a stereotype that witches have a special connection with money and wealth, and might lead some idiot kid to the impression that he can buy off his life from a witch using cash offerings.
or even worse, a witch could use that stereotype and create a situation where she's supposedly doing business (for money) with a meister (technician), and he thinks that she's in this for the money. while in truth, she couldn't care less about it, and is using the connection for some other stuff.
speaking of the chapter... t'was kinda dumb/

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
Yeah, cause people who are making up slurs are usually being logical.Originally Posted by Death BOO Z
MangaStream has dropped Soul Eater according to Kara-san.
Mangacurse is the only option now and they have released chapter 84.

What about the spinoff?
Soul Eater Not! is still in their directory and on their release schedule. On the other hand, Soul Eater has been completely removed from their site.
Maka wasn't overly amused by Soul suddenly regaining control over himself and ending it all with a cool guy pose...
Now THAT was some shitty editing, but the translation was fine so i guess i can deal
Again i felt it was a nice development but stretched too thin, the author could have done a whole lot more with those 30+ pages
Man that translation is enrish as hell.

... and suddenly, moe
Not such an exciting chapter but not bad either. It's kind of entertaining to watch anew Ox trying to woo Kim in vain. Of course we now, in retrospect, know already why Kim tried to keep people farther away than an arm's length. It would be almost sad if anything in this series could be sad. But since everything needs to be either cool or big, there's no room for sadness.
... so do we have an ETA on the NOT series?
*points to the line about "stay tuned until next week" said on all three of the MRI release sites*
I'm missing Black Star + Tsubaki already... But I guess Tezca's weirdness will have to suffice for now. And of course the spinoff, which feels more Soul Eater than Soul Eater itself at the moment.
Hmm... Seems like Not! also has some sort of a bigger plot with the Traitors - whoever or whatever they are. The actual series feels like it lost some of its original atmosphere and dynamics the deeper the greater story developed and so I hope this spinoff won't try to reach too far.
Other than that, I'm still liking the regular appearances of the old characters in this series.
