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’

Wow, I was so freakin behind on this series. 3 episodes behind? I suck.

The good part is, we got to marathon a bunch of Soul Eater episodes without having to wait every week for an episode. So yay!

Was it worth it? No not really >_>; These Soul Eater episodes were just…ok…

Soul Eater is really letting me down, action wise. See… with this anime… it’s extremely strong with humor, however, when it comes to the fighting scenes, they’re KICK ASS at first but can’t keep it up for more than 5 minutes.

Episode 15 was really funny, however, i feel like they’re kind of re-using jokes. Kid’s same old symmetrical phobia, and Liz’s phobia of like…everything. When I saw Chrona appear and Kidd getting ready for action, I was all FUCK YEAH. THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

… but apparently, there was little action in this episode and dragged on to the next episode >_>; 

So DTK and Chrona start off with this KICK ASS fight that only lasted like… not even 5 minutes q_q… i mean, i was just craving for more but nothing really blew me away.

In the end, Kidd ran off into the marvelous symmetrical sun set. I think the past two episodes were cool for giving a glance at how Kidd, Liz and Patty teamed up but I wish it was more of a deep episode than just a glance. The rest of this episode was pretty lame, imo.

And just when I thought Soul Eater couldn’t get any lamer…it gets extremely lame at episode 17.

I can’t believe I made myself sit through this episode. I wanted to kill myself the whole time through. The only reason I watched this episode was cuz my little brother thought excalibur looked cool. Then he sat on my lap, and we ended up watching the episode. My little brother was laughing, i just wanted to throw my computer out the window. 

So after watching Soul Eater, expecting BADASS’D action, it left me in a sour mood by the end of episode 17. *cries*

Overall Episodes Score: 7.8/10
so not worth marathoning… however, the humor in episode 15 & 16 were pretty good.

In one 30 minute action packed episode, Soul Eater was able to offer all the elements needed for a successful anime series!

Overall Score: 9.5/10
