This isn't your average Soul Eater obviously, and I know that a lot of people might expect this to be like the original Soul Eater. When I first saw the Manga, I was like "Oh nice! Another Soul Eater Series!", but then at that time, the original Soul Eater was still ongoing, so then I thought that this was going to be Spinoff series with less-action, and I was right.

This anime is pretty nice, and fun. Obviously no serious plot or whatsoever, so for those who are expecting this anime to turn out to be like Soul Eater, then let me warn you that this isn't anything like that. While Soul Eater focuses on the Action genre, this is more of a Slice of Life genre. And I can't compare those 2 because one does not simply compare 2 Animes with a different genre. And even the description (for the manga) said that this series is more of how 3 best friends get along their daily lives.

And for the returning Soul Eater fans, if you don't mind some slice of life anime, this is for you. There are some returning characters that'll make you feel nostalgic, and even get to know more about Kim, Jacqueline, Liz, Patty, and Ox.

I'd like to say that this anime is a refreshing one.
But I'd like to warn some others, despite the name has "Soul Eater" in it, it barely have any action in this. So for those who expect more action stuff like Soul Eater, don't set your expectations high. (show less)

Like other anime series. You can't compare any to Soul Eater, unless It's Soul Eater. And this new series is such a disappointment. It lacks the main story and for some reason it has gone down the "Slice of Life" path which is not like the series at all. The first Series was Serious and funny from the first episode to the 50th Episode. Where this story has no plot, no story on which it follows, and when you think there's going to be a final story in the series that will lead into a serious and emotion filled episode. It falls back into the Slice of life. And currently on Episode 06, I don't see the plot coming anytime soon. Don't get me wrong, I like Soul Eater, And i definitely like the characters in this series, but we'll just have to stay tuned and see where it takes us. (show less)
