Main Manga Plot
Soul Eater is set at Death Weapon Meister Academy "DWMA" for short. Located in the fictional Death City in Nevada, United Staes. The school is run by Shinigami, also known as Death, as a training facility for humans with the ability to transform into weapons, as well as the wielders of those weapons, called meisters. Attending this school are meister Maka Albarn and her scythe partner Soul Eater, assassin Black Star and his partner Tsubaki Nakatsukasa, who can turn into weapons such as a kusarigama, shuriken, and ninjato, and Shinigami's son Death the Kid and his pistol partners Liz and Patty Thompson. The goal of the school's meister students is to have their weapons defeat and absorb the souls of 99 evil humans and one witch, which will dramatically increase the power of the weapon and turn them into "death scythes", weapons capable of being used by Shinigami.
Shortly after the start of Soul Eater, Maka and Soul Eater face off against the witch Medusa, who forces her child Crona, meister of the demon sword Ragnarok, to collect non-evil human souls and begin the journey to transform into a kishin, an evil god. Medusa and her cohorts attack DWMA with the intention of reviving Asura, the first kishin who nearly plunged the entire world into madness before being sealed beneath DWMA by Shinigami. Despite the combined efforts of Maka, Black Star, and Death the Kid, Medusa's group successfully revives Asura, who leaves to spread chaos around the world after a brief battle with Shinigami. However, Medusa is seemingly killed by meister and DWMA teacher Franken Stein in the process, while Crona surrenders to the DWMA and goes on to enroll there and befriend Maka |

Main Manga Plot Continued
As a result of Asura's spreading madness, Medusa's older sister Arachne comes out of hiding after 800 years. Arachne reforms her organization Arachnophobia, which poses itself as a serious threat to DWMA. Shinigami calls in death scythes from around the world to aid in the fight against Arachnophobia. During this time, Medusa reappears with her soul in the body of a girl, and forms a truce with DWMA so they can annihilate the threat of Arachnophobia together. The DWMA students and Medusa's entourage infiltrate Arachnophobia's headquarters where Maka defeats Arachne, only for Medusa to betray DWMA, possess Arachne's body, and brainwash Crona into rejoining her. Meanwhile, Death the Kid is captured by Noah, an artificial construct created from the Book of Eibon's Tables of Contents. Following this, Maka finally succeeds in turning Soul Eater into a death scythe. The duo become part of the newly formed meister unit Spartoi along with their friends, who rescue Death the Kid and defeat Noah (Greed), though a new Noah (Wrath) is created by the arcane power of the Book of Eibon thanks to its Tables of Contents.
While DWMA searches for Asura's whereabouts, Crona resurfaces in a city in Russia, destroying it and killing the death scythe stationed there, finally being taken by insanity after being forced by Medusa to kill her. Maka is ordered by Shinigami to hunt down Crona, and while searching for her with her powers, she inadvertently discovers Asura's location on the moon. The DWMA launches an attack on the moon to take down Asura, just to be repelled by his Clown armies. Maka and the others manage to take the upper hand helped by the witches after Death the Kid successfully convinces them to establish a temporary alliance, but the situation gets even more chaotic with the interference of Crona, who absorbs Asura's body before being overtaken by him. In the end, Maka, Kid and Black Star, along their weapons, defeat Asura in a decisive battle on the Moon and return on Earth, with Death the Kid becoming the new Shinigami in place of his deceased father and establishing a peace treaty with the witches.
Differences in the anime adaptation
The anime series faithfully adapts the plot of the manga until DWMA's first major battle against Arachnophobia, at which point it deviates from the manga's plot considerably. After giving DWMA information on Arachnophobia, Medusa takes advantage of Stein's increasing madness to lure him away with her. Crona leaves DWMA with teacher and death scythe Marie Mjolnir, and the two manage to bring back Stein after Maka defeats Medusa. Meanwhile, Arachne finds Asura and forms an alliance with him, intending to spread his madness across the world. Shinigami and Asura resume their fight in the ensuing confrontation between DWMA and Arachnophobia, which ends with Asura defeating Shinigami, turning on Arachne, and eating her soul. Maka defeats Asura in the final battle, Shinigami recovers from his injuries, and the world returns to normal.

DarkHellBoy19 Starz-N-Madness DarkHellBoy19 Just found out today that Vic Mignogna is going to be a PHX Comic Con this year! He does the voice of Spirit ( Maka's father) for Soul Eater. I'm excited now! biggrin I'll make time to met him for sure, I remember when he announce being the voice of Zero for Vampire Knight here at one of the conventions years back but I never got to personally go up to him and talk to him. Funny, everyone is talking about Persona lately and I've never play or watch anything Persona related but it's popping up in conversations more lately. lol
I thought he did such a great job as Zero! I really enjoyed Vampire Knight. Wish they continued it.
Lol, that always happens to me, I hear about something and then it keeps popping up in more conversations. Persona is great! You should play and watch the anime. I started with watching the anime- it was awesome.
Have you watched Soul Eater? |

It's been a while since I've watched Vampire Knight but I remember he was wearing one of the day class uniforms at the convention I went too. lol
I'll have to give it a watch, I've just been hearing about a lot lately so maybe that's a sign. xD
I have watched Soul Eater and I got a few episodes in Soul Eater Not but I lost interest in that one. sweatdrop |

Ya, Persona has been around for a long time!
If you want to watch the anime, then that would be Persona 4!
Playing the games, honestly, I have only started playing PersonaQ. Persona 4 Arena is fun- it's a fighting game! Super fun!
I love Stein! Honestly, I love all the characters in Soul Eater, which is why I enjoyed it so much. I love Death the Kid, as well. I'm thinking of cosplaying as him, but a girl version. ^^~ |
