I really wanted to give this a better score, but I just couldn't because of some of the flaws. Like sometimes from the end of an episode to the next one didn't really seem to fit together, its kind of like they just showed up to that place and you really have no idea what's going on, but this happens only a few times, and isn't really that bad, but I just thought o would give a heads up about it. The first 24 or so episodes were great, but I feel the next episodes didn't really seem to fit with the first 24ish episodes, and that's just me.

So at first we see maka and her blade, soul. And they attack corrupted souls and then the weapon or soul eats the soul and when you get 100 of these souls the weapon turns into a deathscythe and seems to be more powerful, they didn't explain much of the powers you receive when you turn into a deathscythe. So know what? Do they go around trying to get more souls? Nope. They attacked a false witch to get the 100th soul, because you need a witches soul for the last one, and then they reset to 0, and this happens within the first 2 episodes I think. And the show then turns into maka and soul making friends in their school and face many enemies among they way, in the first 24 episodes there is a witch that is trying to revive the demon god, and we see what she does and how she tries to revive the demon god. Then after the demon god is revived things seem to go downhill, we meet new enemies who we don't know much of, and the witch takes over a kid, and the witch is now a kid, and I'm not sure what the goal is in the second half of the show, is the demon god trying to get revenge? The demon god just kind of sat around until the last episodes, and he got way to easily I thought. There is my say on the story, not the best but I liked it nonetheless, the characters were good, some were annoying, some were cool, some were strong, and some were weak. They are all well developed and get a good view on each of their personalities. I loved both of the openings, they were good songs and good videos, fit the show very well. Endings were good also. Animations and art were good, animations were good during fights, very fluid. Art was decent on the characters, some people looked unrealistic but overall good job there.

Now while the story wasn't the best, the fights were really good, non repetitive movements, animations were high up there, soundtrack was really good, good character list, some might be annoying to some viewers. Those things definitely make up for the weak storyline, and make it quite enjoyable for some people. I did actually enjoy it, so don't let my review of the story turn you away. If I were on the edge of watching this, I wouldn't waste another second, I would watch it right away
