Soul Eater - 19
Argh… soul eater …soul eater… soul eater…. this anime just keeps on disappointing me.
I’m ALWAYS expecting something great and something to make me go HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT. But 20 episodes have passed and i have yet to feel any excitement. The only time Soul Eater has capture me was during the promo, and after watching the promo I’ve had VERY high hopes for this anime but it just keeps disappointing me…
I’m not saying that this anime is bad, and this episode wasn’t bad either. But it wasn’t amazing. Soul Eater has yet to blow me away and amaze me besides using it’s humor. This episode was just alright. Frakenstein vs Medusa was alright, but not the most bad ass’d fight i’d ever seen. There were a LOT of moments during their fight that felt slow and empty, and i think that could have been fixed with some cool background music which this scene extremly LACKED.
My score for Soul Eater drops to an 8. The characters are most definatly the most unique, and strongest characters in all of anime. But story telling wise… not so great. Pretty mediocore if you ask me.
Overall Episode Score: 8.0/10
It was just…’alright’

Yep, that’s exactly what I’m thinking too, Mel. In term of shonen anime, Soul Eater is just a good/decent anime but not really over the top. Well, at least, it follows manga material pretty well so not much filler crap which is a good thing. Also, the up coming fights are pretty decent so you may like it more.

i kinda agree with you. but i think im enjoying this anime a bit more for some reason. this episode in particular was so so for me just because the kishin guy didnt turn out how i expected but hey when does it ever. also the continuous twists and whatnot kinda screwed with me but other than that i liked the flow. the episode progressed at a decent pace (maybe a tad slow but bearable anyways) and the fight scenes were kick ass not quite bad ass but still in my book 8.5/10 but what i want to see is a love interest to form in this anime so that it doesnt turn out like bleach. im not dissing bleach at all no i luff my bleach XD but the romance factor in there is scarce if not non existant. so far the only connections ive seen in bleach is a lil G rated ecchi and sum nose bleeds woopee. the fanservice is here in soul eater (first or second ep) but then all of the progression of inter-character development kinda slowed to a crawl which dissapointed me. but it is still up there in my favorites Xd happy blogging and i cant wait for you reviews for the other shows.
P.S. if you havent watched Akane Iro Ni Somaru Saka yet the story is ok but i think the ending SUUUCCCKKKKKED i mean for other viewers it might be “bearable” but i couldnt handle i wanted to smash my computer so… wait… where was i going with this? whatever happy blogging XD
