Wow I'm looking forward to this anime!Well mostly because the characters from Soul Eater will appear too.I find weird the new art style of Soul and Maka though...I'm so used to the old animation of theirs...

I too am so used to the old animation style of this series and I have such adoration for Ookubo's art style in general.

This is definitely moving further away from his style, but it is also comforting knowing that Bones has once again brought Shibusen and this universe back to life. Which I thought would never happen again.

I'm torn but i'll watch it for what it is- this is still an entirely different manga to Soul Eater and should be treated as such.


Also you cannot and will not stop me from enjoying every single ounce of Black☆Star I can get.

New art looks strange with Maka and Soul. Does anyone know what time this series is set in? Because Maka looks younger, like is it set before, during, or after the events of normal Soul Eater?

It is set a bit before the normal Soul Eater.
Notice how Sid is still alive (0:13 in the preview) while in Soul Eater he had already died and become a zombie.
So it's correct that Maka should look younger.

The artwork of this series compared to the original Soul Eater is so....different. Maybe I'll check out the manga before watching this series so I don't expect too much lol.

Man, one of the best things about Soul Eater was the soundtrack...Crossing fingers for a cool soundtrack once again.

This would look better if it was in the old art style. I hope it won't bother much when the show starts :\

You know what, i'll be honest, i think anyone who bashes this anime just because of the fact that it doesn't focus on the original storyline should just suck it up, okay, so what if it isn't the original storyline, the original characters, the original art, and so on. The original Soul Eater is done and I don't want to see some pissed off teenager or grown adults throwing a fit because it doesn't focus on Maka or Soul anymore. All I can say is, give this anime a chance and if you don't like it, than drop it. But I can never respect anyone who just bashes an anime on first appearances. Besides, who knows, you might actually grow to appreciate it. Lastly, who ever gave you the damn right to bash this anime? What are you the president of their fanclub? Oh please, you and I both know that the Soul Eater franchise can survive with or without you.

I apologize to anyone I might have offended.

No one bashed the story or the show. We are expressing our dislike of the moe art style which, in our opinion, doesn't fit a show like Soul Eater. We have the right to express our opinions no?

I don't mind Maka but...

What did they do to Soul? Nooooo. Seriously though, the whole reason I will be watching this is to see the original Soul Eater characters, I wasn't a huge fan of the manga.

But I WILL be super excited to see Maka and Soul doing their demonstration in front of the class. That was one of my favorite parts <3
