They both have the same feel and comedy. Soul Eater is about shinigami's and One Piece is about pirates but their comedy and the idea of pushing ones self to be great is seen in both mangas. If you like One Piece you will defintely like Soul Eater and vice versa.
The context of both series are highly similar. Both feature organisations that are in conflict against witches. There are also strong horror references throughout the two.
Both series share a similar aesthetic particularly in regard to setting and characters.
I think the line drawing are similar.
Eu penso que os traços são similares.

Sorry, my english is too bad.
I think black star and naruto are simular, they both want to become the strongest, they both dont think before they do stuff, and they're amusing :)
I think maka and sakura are simulair too, both smart and dont hesitate to hit people.
Bleach is akin to Soul Eater in that they both feature characters with unique weapons and abilities. They are also set with a premise involving grim reapers.
Soul Eater is a little bit darker, but there are some similarities, the art styles are very similar.
Both mangas have characters that turn into weapons, the plot that develops around the catch of corrupted souls, and the soul-eating (as seen in chapter 2)
The similarities in these two series are profound. First, the setting is dictated by two groups. In Ao no Futsumashi, we have the humans against the demons. In Soul Eater, we have the meisters against the witches. Second, due to the uniqueness of the characters featured in both series, we are introduced to different fighting styles characterised by weapons, spells, and physical poweress. Third, the general asthetic is relatively similar.
In both Soul Eater and in Deadman Wonderland the characters are forced to struggle against insanity. While Deadman Wonderland is by far a darker tale, its twisted carnival setting sort of reminded me of the punk/halloween like style portrayed in Soul Eater.
The two series are similar to each other, with the main characters working in pairs and some of the character design and personalities.
Diabolo and Soul Eater have a story surrounding a set of two people fighting against an evil force that's threatening the world. Some characters similarities can be drawn as well: Rai (Diabolo) with Stein (SE) and Ren (Diabolo) with Spirit with be the closest, but Ren and Rai aren't exactly like Spirit and Stein - just in certain parts.
Supernatural themed shonen manga, kids as protagonists,little bit of horror added.

Both are shouen manga with a similar atmosphere. They deal with supernatural powers that are a common part of their societies, and they often bring up the topic of souls. Both series have two main characters who share a deep bond with each other. They both also have comic relief, exciting action, and with a character who attacks whoever insulted them (Ed when he's called "short", Maka uses her "Maka chop"). Edward and Maka are also similar characters.
Humans who turns into weapons
The stories are not very alike but they both have supernatural elements. Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro with, it's wonderfully funny sadistic demon and Soul Eater, with it's witches and people being about to change into weapons. If you like one you'll like the other is that the art styles are similar. Not exact but close enough to remind me of each other when reading.
Both Yumekui Merry and Soul Eater have very similar art styles. They also have the same surreal aspect to them. I strongly believe that if you liked one that you'd like the other. Irrelevantly; their names are about eating certain aspects of the human psyche.
both are changing weapons into human form.
When I first started reading Soul Eater, my first thoughts were "this reminds me of Jing" and it does. The art is unique and eccentric looking as Jing. The characters are also reminiscent of Jing, level headed hero (or heroine in Soul Eater) and the womanizing, sarcastic companion that's doubles as a weapon. If you enjoy the odd adventures of Maka and Soul, I think you'd also enjoy Jing and Kir's travels through a peculiarly similar world.

they both have a school/supernatural setting with tons of fighting and comedy
Soul Eater is a lot less serious, but there are some similarities. Check them both out if your a fan of either series.
Same author. There are some similarities with the characters. Same with the plot. Both are good stories!
Both are stylish shounen manga that present themselves as light-hearted, but regularly turn grim. Soul Eater has a halloween kind of theme that occasionally goes overboard while Akame ga Kill! has vivid displays of corruption and a rule saying if "Teigu" users fight, one will always die. They also both feature a particular city as the main location and most villains range from twisted to oh god what.
Akame ga Kill! is still quite a bit more down to earth than Soul Eater, but in return, it's also harsher.
The similarities between these two shows come in the form of the tone...

Both are dark and the amungst the more 'mature' shounen's avaliable:
- we don't simply see a 'fountain of blood' to maintain a 'horror' element, there is actual graphic scenery
- there we have crudeness present in both which doesn't rely on your typical cases of half naked ladies

We don't have a single 'be all and end all' safe hero:
- the 'good guys' aren't particullarly angelic
- minors and new cast members establish themselves
- 'bad guys' get their fair share of attention when not facing off against 'the hero's'
This manga has the same mission "Eat Soul" but in Million Tears, people whose soul eat by the Characters not only lost his/her life but also forgotten by everybody
Both have fighters who uses spirits and living weapons to fight. Both have weird drawing style.
Both these manga's are supernatural, dark yet comical and both feature a demonic* male leads with shark teeth who enjoys eating souls -litterally, however, teamwork is nessessary in order for the series to be what it is. The two then contrast... Hell's Kitchen has a basic plot; becoming a head chef, whilst Soul Eater has a complex plot that consists of facing off aginst powerful, supernatural evil.
