Soul Eater (Manga)

I fell in love with this manga from the very first chapter I read.The drawing style,the story,the characters and pretty much everything else make the reader not wanting the pages to come to an end.There's almost everything someone might ask from this gender of manga and probably even more.A great story with amazing action and sudden blasts of humor when one least expects it make it worth reading.

The characters all have their own quirks that make each one of them unique in their own weird ways which adds even more to the whole package :P

I undoubtly recommend it for everyone that likes to get a thrill from battle action as well as good laugh at the same time... read more

I first started reading Soul Eater because my friend recommended it to me, saying it's "the lovechild of Bleach and Naruto." Which is pretty true, this manga is overall very very epic.

Art:
I think art is not as pretty as some of my favorite series (ie. Hikaru no Go) but it's not horrible and it's actually quite likeable. The style changes very slightly while in a different dimension and reflects some of the actions in the plot which I found very awesome. Also, it's not difficult to see what's going on in each panel like in some dramatic action series (ie. 07 Ghosts, I need to reread the chapter at least three times to figure out what exactly is going on). Overall, the art is great, this should get a full score but I'm just really picky and dislike the way how some of the eyes (MAKA) are draw. 9/10

Story:
Soul Eater isn't exactly your typical story, which is why I absolutely adore the manga. The main characters don't always win, the plot twists are awesome, and the concept of soul partners as weapons, although not exactly unique, works very well with the story. There's a mix of humor, action, and plot and there isn't really any super long fights that drag on for 20 chapters or something. I really wish I could fully express the awesomeness of Soul Eater's plot, but I really just can't. 10/10

Characters:
A lot of the characters are very amusing, they each have their own flaws (ie: Kid's Obssessive Compulsive Disorder) and are all pretty eccentric which gives me endless amounts of lulz. The character development isn't that obvious (or maybe I just suck at noticing it) but it is noticible and it makes me smile. Kinda.
The relationships between the characters are one of the manga's strong points as well. The characters alone are great, the character interactions are...well... *____________* (This is me being speechless in awe)
And Medusa is a pretty bad-a** villian. 10/10

Enjoyment:
Soul Eater is very enjoying for all the reasons above. I read all the chapters in one sitting because I absolutely fell in love with the characters and the plot. It's all really engaging, there's constantly new things in each chapter so it's never really dull. 10/10 read more
