That was such an awesome fight scene, I still feel that the plots a little rushed but the action makes up for its flaws.

Awesome episode, had a little bit of everything in it. Kid and Black Star fighting Asura was very sweet. Can't wait to see how this ends.

Also, Asura in his human looking form looks so awesome. His eyes look so cool. :O

woo, infinite plotkai! Suddenly Kid can use uber Death Canon because he got stabbed in the chest. And Black Star has powered up again from his fight with Mifune somehow.

The animation wasn't bad, though. And this fight is certainly better than the previous one vs Medusa. The writing is still awful. I don't like how they have all of Shibusen sitting around doing nothing, or how no one is paying attention to the fact that Shinigami is seems to be dying. I can't believe they didn't even have Stein say anything about Shinigami's tattered body laying on the ground.

Best part of the episode by far was the scene after the credits (episode preview?).

With this episode, my fears of a terrible Bones ending, *cough* FMA *cough*, have gone away. It was freaking epic and the preview for 51 looks even better. I can completely agree with someone of the complaints of inconsistencies, but in general its been awesome. There are times I thought that it was going in weird tangents, but it has always been able to revert back to course.

The biggest problem, I think, with Soul Eater, and almost all shouen series are the power inconsistencies. Other than that, I don't have much to complain about for the series in general.

If that wasn't fucking Soul/Maka, I don't know what is.
So happy to see Kid's Sanzu Lines connect, I was worried that'd never happen in the anime, so o uob on that.
Looks like the ending'll be intense just like this episode.
Predicting pretty much that Maka defeats Ashura (who looks fuckin' godly, btw, as is atm) with her new red slayer attack after it looks like she'll lose.
Then we'll probably get some closing lulz, happy moments and all will be over.
-sigh-, I love how Soul Eater can be intense one minute and make me giggle the next.
Because I was giggling when Stein was just like 'O HAY GUISE, LONG TIEM NO C!'
Also, why was Soul a candle thing?

I giggled for most of the episode. Well, major power boost for kid- all three Sanzu lines connected! OO… Maka and Soul weren't as boring as I expected, which was good, and I find it hard to see how they're going to warp it all up in just one epi… but by the looks of it, Maka, would get a super boost too (though it would make less sense, since it'll mean Maka is stronger than a shinigami… oh well.)


No.

Kid's sanzu connected when he was in a coma state, if he would be able to activate them when he want (and not with his unconsius like now) he would probably be able to fight really well against the Kishin, maybe even kill him if it were a 1 vs 1.

Maka only have a good scythe handing level, spirit recognition and the anti-demon wavelength who work only on madness, that mean I'm pretty much sure Maka right now would be defeated against Kid, she would only have Witch hunter against him since Demon hunter would not work.

Maka is only a lucky student who innerithed a really rare power from her mother, she have good skill for her age but she's the weakest of the three main char tough she is the only one able to use Demon hunter and it comes handy when you face the incarnation of insanity since it's mean to beat it to crap.



I can understand why for anime only watcher Kid power-up seemed stupid but that's because they didn't took the time to explain what the Sanzu line were before the fight.

Not to be all 'zomg manga,' but...zomg, the manga explains Kid's power up so much better.
I'm not sure (obviously), but if the same logic applies in the manga, the lines of his hair connecting is essentially a power boost to him that isn't permanent and takes a lot of strength, meaning it's doubtful he'll be able to use it again any time soon, if at all. And he technically can come back from a stab to the chest as he's a Shinigami and is resistant to attacks like that (aka flesh wounds).
But yeah, wtf at Black Star, he was getting a bit too deus ex machina, only not because there wasn't even a plot device to explain why he was able to be so fast, they didn't even indicate whether it was White Star or what.
I still really liked this episode, but I am iffy about the whole Black Star situation. |:

The anime hasn't given iself enough time to explain most happenings, which is why there are so many plotholes. I knew there wouldn't be enough episodes to explain everything from when I watched 45. It was just ending far too quickly without much being explained from ep to ep.

No, Black star just used his brain for a change, he always could get this fast this time he only used it without rest. I guess he understood that it's not the time to play even if he doesn't stop to brag he's full serious right now. As expected it wasn't enough to beat Asura's real form who is far stronger than it's big one

As for being able to cut through the Kishin it's because, if you didn't forget, Black star was in resonnance with Kid and Maka, Maka is now down since she is rescuing Soul, he keep the resonnance with kid. This same Kid got a huge power up because of his Sanzu line allowing Black star to be more powerfull since he was in resonnance with him. It wasn't said but it looked like that for me.

Ya know I really don't care enough to put a full explanation, but I will say that they could have done better. This arc started out good and turned uninteresting fast, at least for me.

As I haven't gotten to read it, I'm left wondering if the anime will have an original ending, or if it will have some sort of cliffhanger.
Oh and flashy episode too ^^

I agree that the last episodes have felt rather rushed. Oh well, I think I'll probably start reading the manga after finishing this series, which sounds a lot better and doesn't seem to have all these problems so much.

It pretty mutch follows the manga completly until the batle for brew where Maka beats Mosquito with the demonhunter. In the manga Mosquito tell them he can tranceform several times more and the gang runs off as to not get killed... after that the only thing thats the same is that Joe shows up and Black Star getting pawned by Kid. I don't feel like looking up the episode numers or manga chapers...

It's also noteworthy that in Free's introduction is a lot more well blood in the manga..

u make a good point about it not making sense that maka and soul beat him since that would make her stronger than a shinigami but im still looking forward to it

Kid's part was pretty awesome; even if he was semi-unconscious. Poor Kid, he didn't even know he got to be symmetrical. Also, I totally LOLed when Soul ate the demon! What was that?! That's exactly as it should be! Haha, I'm totally reading the manga after I watch the final episode, especially since everyone and their mothers have been saying how much better it is. Soul Eater is too much fun for it to just end.

Soul Eater is truly spectacular. Kid's hair finally becoming symmetrical was genious and his death cannon was completely badass! Looks like it's come down to Maka vs Kishin, though I do hope that Crona gets one last chance to shine.

Great episode, some really good fighting between Kid/Black Star and Kishin. Kid's uber-ability was pretty sweet as well.
Glad that little asshole is dead now as well, he's been pissing me off since he appeared in Soul.

I fear that the fight in the next episode might be rather anti-climatic, though, with Maka and Soul only needing to resonate, which they've done twice already, and hit Kishin...

Pretty damn happy with this episode. Black Star's power up is very annoying, but Kid's is awesome (his random hair lines actually seem to have a purpose!) and makes slightly more sense - I haven't seen him use Resonance for Death Cannon for a while now, so I was guessing he'd either gotten stronger or the animators had gotten lazy. Am wondering if he's inheriting Death's power - the foreboding crack means the animators certainly want me to believe that, at least. Next, last episode~
