Soul Eater, Vol. 1

little sum sum scratches and tears but its small so its fine

`Soul Eater' is a rather strange manga about the students at the Death Weapon Meister Academy as they try to turn their weapons into a Death Scythe, a weapon wielded by Shinigami-sama himself. The main characters are the weapon meister Maka and her demon scythe Soul Eater, the loudmouthed and egotistical ninja Black Star and his demon shadow weapon, and the sun of Shinigami-sama Death the Kid and his pair of demon guns Liz and Patty Thompson.At this early stage of the manga before the overall story arc has kicked in the manga is good but not brilliant. The art is good with a nice individual style and the characters are all interesting. I would definitely recommend 'Soul Eater' to any manga fan although I would have to say that the series doesn't get really good for a couple of volumes yet but it is definitely worth sticking with.

Good plot, however it focuses on sexual themes quite often, so if your not okay with that then I wouldn't recommend, the characters are all really good and have amazing character design and backstory, I will be buying volume 2! 💕

I bought this after watching the anime series as I wanted to find out the rest of the story since the anime cuts off about 1/3 the way though and goes its own way. As mangas go, the artwork is top notch and a lot is covered very quickly. But what makes soul eater stand out above many other series that I have read and watched is the characters. It is filled with great memorable people that build character though the story and change as time goes on. The principle theme to me makes me think of Soul Eaters universe as a concept of what would Harry Potter had been created by Tim Burton.But I love it really for the way it combines such a creepy art style and universe with the humour so flawlessly, one scene could have blood everywhere whilst five minutes later everyone's joking and having a good time.If you're looking for a good manga series or have just finished watching the anime (the plots diverge around vol.11) then please read these books, I highly recommend it to anyone.

Can’t put it down once you start
