That was epic win.
And the fight scene was soo good >___<
Each time, I think the Soul eater episode of the week was the best so far .. but all episodes are just great !
Btw, Black Star reminds me (a bit) of Kamina .. oh well, just an impression xD

At first I was like poor Black Star... and then he started to act all Black Star-y xD

But that was a pretty deep episode... with Tsubaki and her bro.. I kinda wish they told us more about their past... but still.. awesome ep!!! >.<



Sig WILL change soon~

Holy Crap, good to see that Tsubaki can drop the push over personality when she has to. The last fight was insane.

I not only really liked Tsubaki in this episode, but Black Star as well. Excellent episode overall, the fight was crazy and it was funny at times as well. Next episode looks interesting.

lol agreed. but it's ok cuz it didn't ruin the already awesome-ness of the Ep. Animation was amazing! and the shadow puppet ending made me chuckle... "I'm so busy... I'm so busy..."

this episode was incredibly awesome. the animation was so fluent, i loved everything about it.
i was sad to see tsubaki chan suffer so much, getting stabbed so much, and actually almost dying.
stein is still kinda funny, trying to eat.
anyways, back to tsubaki. her back story was nice too.
lol @ buraku sutaa and tsubaki's meeting. expected xD
she was so cute too
funny and kind of touching = black star sitting in the rain, while getting pounded in the head by a couple of villagers, that made me laugh, and when he protected tsubaki's body, it was nice too.
Liz crying was funny, patty patting her in the shoulder was even more epic
the final fight's animation was so well done.... it was a moment to be remembered, but BS saying encore was good too.

after this, i can say that tsubaki is the best weapon out of the 4.

black star saying, "black star will give you a hug" made me laugh, but then tsubaki started crying, and she was so cute... moment ruined by lil' boy xD

demon blade form is nice, its also nice that black star will probably shut up after using it xD

Was a really good follow up to the previous episode.

In terms of how Tsubaki won I have my own idea. She really didn't get enough damage in to defeat her brother, but it was the effort that was important. For the first time she showed her brother her true feelings and they reached him. Instead of just following her name and acting like she has no scent she stepped up. Not just doing what she thinks the other person wants, but doing what she wanted. Probably made her brother realize he had misjudged her. She wasn't feeling pity and going along with him for that reason. It was just part of her personality. She was someone who loved her brother and sadly had to stop him as well.

Think the flashback really reflects the kind of person Tsubaki was. She arrived at Shibusen in pretty plain clothing. Later though she tailored her outfit to match with Black Star's. Their meeting really just showed their personalities well.

This episode really made me like this pair. Black Star really helped Tsubaki to show her true colours more. Since he is the kind of person who says things loud and clear. Though perhaps too loud for some people :).

A fun episode.

Black Star and Tsubaki ftw <3~~
It was really sweet to see how Black Star cared so much for Tsubaki. It was a really deep episode and it was nice to see how Tsubaki wanted her old brother back and in the end she was accepted by him. The whole episode was too thoughtful.

Next episode:
Soul Eater in his suit~ <33!!

I know! xD he says he'll give her a hug and then just pats her on the head (facepalm) I don't quite think he's got this right - do you?

Though he was actually cool in this episode! D: what's wrong with the world?!? xD and the next episode looks great too - Soul looks awesome in his suit x33

Is it just me, or should Black Star be dead? I mean good god, look at the blood loss he took, not to mention the insane brain damage. It's amazing he's not border line retarded. I still can't stand him though.

I still don't get how Tsubaki won. I'm not crazy about the whole main characters gets pwned for 90% of the fight, then miraculously wins at the end...a lil cheesy if you ask me. I can handle a 60/40 fight where the main character wins, but a90/10....c'mon. Then at the end he stabs her...and still loses?????? I just don't get it.


agreed on that, watch samurai champloo or one piece, they almost never get their ass kicked. hmmm maybe because they are the "villains" in those shows.

I thought it was a great episode, loved the character development. I'm beginning too like Black Star a lot more. Tsubaki was awesome however she did get her ass beat for most of the episode and suddenly won(but thats typical in most animes, so i'll deal)and i thought it was a beautiful episode, especially the hug. I like the contrast in characters, that actually make for an awesome team.

@Jacut i disagree, naruto and bleach just had way to much fighting, that's pretty much what its all about, Soul Eater is balanced it has a good amount of fighting, Drama, comedy and adventure, I actually like this better than both shows

Agreed.

Black Star, for the first time in this series I was like "AWESOME!" I felt horrible for him when he got continuously hit.

And that 'Encore' moments were quite epic!

Very touching episode. Especially that hug. <3
Black Star isn't my favorite, but when he started calling out, "Encore. Encore." ...Well, it put a smile on my face. :)

Other than that, meh. 4/5. I accidentally clicked 5/5.
