It was ok. I suppose these Black Star-centric episodes just aren't my cup of tea.

Good epi. A bit slow-paced (*duh* XD) but it's still good anyways. Tsubaki's fight looks promising, can't wait for it =P

Much improved over episode 9. It still wasn't episode 8 or anything, but at least it was one that made me feel the series was still worth watching instead of being the next thing I drop. Plus the animation and fight scene were pretty solid, although I suspect episode 11 will be the one they go all-out on again.

I thought it was an alright episode. Black Star and Tsubaki's soul resonance was ok.
And it wasnt that much of a surprise that the fey blade was one of her relatives.

I like Black Star's character so I enjoyed this episode. Liked the little background that we got about him. Hmm but what I really wanna see now is Tsubaki's fight next episode with her so called brother. I can't wait know Tsubaki's past now.

I wasn't really expecting much from last week's preview and despite being an episode with Black Star as one of the leads, I loved this episode. I'm glad Tsubaki is getting a chance to shine in this series. I also tolerated the Naruto-wannabe in this ep because he showed a different side of him that I liked. There's one thing that stood out for me the most: either I'm thinking too hard, or this shot is some kind of symbolism:



I think it represents the present relationship between Black Star and Tsubaki. It's one of my favorite parts of the series so far. Now onto the funny stuff...that old man wouldn't stop thrusting XD! And Black Star's little "accident" made my year.

OMG......Black Star was really cool here, and i bet the next ep will be cool as well ^_^

If Tsubaki has different weapon forms, does that mean she and Black Star have Different Soul Resonances for each weapon??! 0_o

It was a much better episode than last week...! Episode 8 is still the highlight for me... but this episode was a good build up to (hopefully) an awesome episode next week.

ps, LOL to whoever said Black Star was a Naruto wannabe... so true...! He reminds me of how annoying Naruto can be...! But yeah, I think the episode showed that he can have his moments. ^.^

Yeah , it was kinda slow but still it was so good ~ It still is so near with the manga ~
And it was touching to see Black Star and Tsubki talkning ~ Everyone there has such a unique charm ^^

And his Speed Star on a rainy day was so good xD
He was on stage once again ;)

And I officially love Black Star after watching this episode. After next episode I'll probably say the same thing about Tsubaki.

Have to admit Black Star impressed me this time... his serious side is pretty cool~
Tsubaki is boring though, even just her voice and speech can put me to sleep... I hope Soul & Kid will have some action next time x3

Nah I still hate him. A lot.

This episode was slow and I just hate Black Star and Tsubaki's annoying "Yes!" "Okay!" "Understood!"-s.
As much as Kidd annoys me I like him way more than these two.

And there was 0 Spirit in this episode, so it autofailed.

Not like it was bad, but it was easily my least favorite episode so far.

Who cares about maka's dad wini...

anyways I thought it was a good episode. Good action, good little backstory for Black Star. Tsubaki is my #2 fav weapon (patty my #1) so its always good seeing her in action.

LOL at the old man and the old woman/she-hulk. Oh whenever that dude's shadow came out, it started to remind me that this art style kind a looks like something straight out of a Tim Burton movie, namely the Nightmare Before Christmas one.

I wound the ep pretty fun to me. 5/5
Oh, and enough of the "filler bitching" no one forces you to watch them at gunpoint.

Omg, this episode seemed so short xD I was so into it, that when it ended I was like wtf, it just started ;O

Well, it was a nice episode after all, tho I was expecting a lil more.. But oh well. The old man was soo funny ^^ And Black Star's unpleasant accident :3 Haha! It was 4/5 for me.

It seemed too long for me.. The whole bad-guy-in-family cliche definitely killed the episode for me.
Tsubaki and Black Star were both boring, yet annoying.

Black Star is the only thing I don't like about Soul Eater. So I'm going to join all the people in that village and gang up against Black Star..... The only episode's I diddn't totaly hate Black Star where 6 and 9.

But I did like the Tsubaki part and i'm looking forward to her fight. In my heart I'm hoping for Black Star to die and Tsubaki's bro to become her new partner!

Really good episode. We got to see into Black Star and Tsubaki who are deeper characters than what they seem. Action was pretty good, not as intense as perhaps the first three episodes, but it was still interesting. My only problem is with the "shadow puppet" thing, which looks interesting. but could have been given more dimension. Can't wait for the next episode.
