Overall, I gave Soul Eater a 10.
Story - 10: I can't say that I haven't seen animes that don't revolve around the concept of "souls", but SE made it interesting in its own little way. And, for me, SE was constantly surprising me, with all the small twists and turns. I could never predict what was going to happen. (Even the ending surprised me!) I love that in animes. :) Also, Soul Eater had a mix of most everything... humor, action, supernatural sort of things, etc. Romance was left out (;n;) but you can use your imagination to picture things going on with the characters. (Plus, who doesn't see the obvious chemistry between Maka and Soul?! They're perfect.) I never got bored watching this.
Art - 9: I think I'm a little too forgiving for this whole reviewing thing, but I really, really loved the art in Soul Eater. The characters are sort of average, but backgrounds, buildings, and most scenes were nicely done. I loved the sort of childish feel to Death City. Contradicting, because of its name. I also enjoyed how the sun and the moon weren't important figures, but they were always there... the way they were drawn makes me laugh, now that I look at it. I'm not really sure what could have been changed or added to make this a 10, but, as close as it was to deserving a 10, it wasn't quite there.
Sound - 10: 10, 10, 10... but the music was pretty much amazing. I adored both openings and all of the endings. I actually never once skipped the openings (which I usually end up doing because I get sick of them), so it came as a surprise to me that I could rewatch the same opening 25 or so times and still bob my head along to the music. I'm pretty sure most fans would also agree with me. :D All of the background music for fights/other dramatic scenes fit them perfectly! It added lots of feeling to the scenes and fit the settings accordingly and everything.
Characters - 9: Since the main character (of the main pair) was a girl, it surprised me that I didn't get annoyed with her. Usually girl protagonists start to annoy me halfway through any series, but Maka seemed pretty awesome to me (>.> not because she uses a scythe or anything...). The character development was also great. You go on an adventure alongside with them and watch them mature in their own ways. Each character was different from each other, but still learned to all fit and get along. You couldn't honestly dislike any of the characters. (Except the bad guys, but even they're hard to dislike.) The evil characters were perfectly evil, and the good guys were awesome. Once again, I really can't seem to give it a 10, but I still loved everyone in SE.
Enjoyment - 10: I enjoyed Soul Eater and will probably watch it again, too. (I'm gonna get started on the manga as well, because I honestly cannot get enough.) Soul Eater is highly enjoyable and I really recommend it to anyone.
