I mentioned Soul Eater recently as the series beprised really for its innovative art and setting. Well, I saw it at con today, and ZKC it ain’t. In fact, it looks downright crude by comparison. Creators apparently aimed for game-faithful dynamism, and made everything else cartoony. Their shimigami is a downright caricature of Grim from Billy [...]

That scene where Chrona is being molested by Ragnarok always brings the LULZ. That scene also suggests two possibilities. The first is that Chrona is a girl and that's why Ragnarok keeps harassing her. The second is that Ragnarok swings the other way. That's why it is keen to check out Chrona's phallic good down there. See? Either way, it's still full of LULZ. The question is, would you rather see Chrona as a guy, a girl, or a sexually ambiguous character like he/she has always been? Personally, I just want them to decide the character a gender and stick with it. I'm tired of having to remember not to call Chrona using gender-specific words. Moreover, I don't see the point of withholding her gender like this except for some occasional LULZ like this episode. If you've read the manga, has there been a situation where Chrona's non-disclosed gender ends up becoming a major plot point? Anyway, if I have to guess, I think Chrona is a girl.

As Kid races up to catch Elka and Free, he runs into a scattering of Elka’s tadpole bomb which are blocking the pathway. In typical Kid OCD fashion, he breaks down into tears since the bombs aren’t oriented in a symmetric fashion. But fortunately for him, Patty does her best sergeant impression and [...]

I’ve been playing some a serious game of anime-catch up lately. I’ve been watching episodes I put off, because I was to lazy to wait for the new ones. Hence the lack of posts. Oh, well…I now bring you my review on Soul Eater episode 22! Chrona?…Bishie Sparkles…My Chrona?! *Dies* Summary The episode begins where 21 [...]

This week in Soul Eater: Good fun. Summary Medusa’s gang continues to advance to race to the Demon God, with Black Star and Death the Kid tailing behind. Setting up little bombs against Kid, the absolute lack of symmetry of the bombs’ arrangement disgusted Kid and make him hate himself to the core, as usual. Thankfully, Patty with [...]

Oh yes… Keep 'em coming… Something just b*tchslapped me as I was browsing for new episodes of some series I've been watching for now. They're just a handful compared to some seasons away. Anyhow, as I was checking out new episode releases for SOUL EATER (and as of now, Rumbel is the only fansub working [...]

Man was this episode action packed. If action packed was an article of clothing I’d need like 5 suit cases. The Chrona skirt pull scene seemed like it was funnier in the manga. I guess the animators didn’t wanna focus on ecchi jokes but on the action instead. That’s cool, I loved the part where [...]
