Its finally here!! Seemed like a short week for some reason, hopefully the fight lives up to the hype i got from the preview:)

I hope the fight is good. I was really pumped up at the end of episode 15.

Naigs!

...

NAIGS!

NAIGS!

*ahem* Anyway...

I don't understand why they always have Shinigami-sama outside of the mirror.

Awesome, Naigs is here; can't wait for the episode :D

This episode is gonna be great! Can't wait! :D

Also, yay Naigs! :p

uhh... what's up with the next episode preview? i don't recognize it at all. is this new?

Looks that way...

Kinda spoils the tension doing it here, if you ask me.

Was a pretty big episode that's for sure. Yeah that preview really kills the tension.

It's the only break they'll have for a long time.

Oh my gosh the preview...filler alert! :uhoh:

Damn, why now >_<

*sigh*

As for this episode...

So these people being mentioned have only been revealed in the manga right?

Next weeks ep is going to rule

This week's ep ruled just as hard. Nice fight between Kid and Chrona. That Scream Alpha is one heck of an attack. Too bad Kid's OCD kicked in. Poor guy.

No, Naigs was named and had a few lines in this episode (which is a change from the manga).

BTW, I'm 90% certain that her name is actually supposed to be Kniges (cause, you know, 'knives'), but I'll hold off on using that romanization until we get confirmation cause it doesn't look right phonetically in English :\

Edit: seiyuu is Noda Junko.

And Kid's OCD cracks me up once again. I can't help but facepalm everytime he does something like that. The fight was pretty sweet too, plus this episode has put Chrona much farther up on my list of favorites for some reason. o.o

As for the preview for the next episode.... oh crap.... <.<;;

Interesting. I can't actually remember where in the manga we first see her, though. I wonder if the anime will come up with an explanation for all those bandages. Just because well, even amongst Death City's population it looks a little odd that we never see her without them or a suggestion that it's down to some healing injury.

omg I havent watched 16 yet but its has one of my fav Stein moments in it!! (just based on screens I saw)

as for the preview...omg wtf...:heh:

Soul Eater is too hard to understand without subs T_T I'll just stick to my shoujo anime in raw...

BONES animation looks as pretty as always, Kid and Chrona's fight..is just amazing

Next episode is filler? Lets see would BONES make good fillers X_X''

Naigs does show in the manga without her bandages though. :uhoh:

Ah, didn't remember that.

Great fight showed by Kid against Chrona, although Liz and Patty weren't very effective against him/her.

The scene between Stein and Medusa was very intense and in some kind the highlight in this episode for me.

Naigs... hmmm... is she already a death scythe? Or is Spirit the only one?

The next episode seems to be filler. I don't mind filler, but why about Excalibur? I want to see Maka/Soul and BlackStar/Tsubaki back in action.

I couldnt hold it and went to read the manga, when i found out that the next episode is filler :P
I enjoyed every page

Lol I did the exact same thing. XD Screw sitting through fillers about Excalibur, I want more storyline. O.o

Wait.... wedding? Holy CRAP! Does this mean what I think it does? Kidd is scheduled to marry Medusa? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I'm done now.

Spectacular_Insanity, I hope you know what you watched was not real...
pretty hilarious at some points though.

Haha I'm not 100% sure about that. [snip] The episode itself is, but the wording used and the terminology that they have in the episode isn't accurate. I'm not fluent, but I have a friend who is and they said a ton of things were wrong with the sub,

But it seemed as though this episode strayed from the actual manga a little anyway, so I may be wrong.

(OR NOT! YAY SOMEONE CONFIRMED THAT FOR ME~!)

I wondered when things were going to start getting a little different seeing as the anime is only going to be about 51 eps, and the manga is still going at 51 chapters.

ROFL. EXCALIBUR WTF. No seriously, I think its all a big joke. Maybe the previews are only different in the "late night" version or whatever, but I swear a filler about Excalibur just blows me away. LOL.

Heh, time for a good old fashioned fangasm. :heh: *deep breath*

ftsdfghrjjghrgrdfgh, 10/10. T'was epic.

The animation for Kid vs Chrona was awesome, some of the best I've seen yet in Soul Eater (IMO of course)! Kid was so badass! :D

Also, SCREECH ALPHA! Man, that was so awesome.

The scene between Stein and Medusa was great, could really feel the tension ramping up.

Oh boy, let's hope that Sid and Naigs are ok. :uhoh:

Also, I guess I saw the[snip], because the dialouge was full of lulz. I could tell the sub wasn't very accurate, what with the whole wedding buisness and all. But it still had some funny moments, like FABULOUS!

The sub did not detract from the quality of the ep (for me anyway...), I loved every second of it. :love:

*Fangasm over*

I'm gonna love the next episode. Excalibur FTW! :D

I totally agree. I actually really liked the smaller lettering that they used for it. BUT OMG THAT FABULOUS PART WAS EPIC AND HILARIOUS ALL IN THE SAME INSTANCE. XD

I liked the small lettering too. I also, like how they did the attack names like Screech Alpha and Annoying Attack, a la One Piece. If it could have only been more accurate, than it could've been perfect. Alas, it wasn't. :D


Some of my favorite lines

Kid: Hey man, what the f*** is up with that kid?
Liz: I think he's on drugs! O__O
Kid: YOU JUST DON'T SEE HOW FABULOUS IT IS!
Liz: What? You need rehab...

Maka: Melia-sensei (Medusa) is a f***ing idiot.

Sid: (to stein) You should really go off-screen now.

Kid: There's alot of things I don't know. And I thought I might have made her (Medusa O__O)pregnant. How do you explain that?

Shinigami-sama: It's a secret of the gods.

:heh:

without touching her 'you know where', kid can get her pregnant? truly a secret of the gods.

I don't know about you guys, but the way Kidd holds his guns still bug me. Pinkies in general are niether as strong nor have the reflexes of index fingers. Oh well, not like it matters.

Kidd did really irritate me by getting distracted in battle. Doing it for gags at other times in the show is fine and quite hilarious, but letting it interfere with duty and what needs to get done is unacceptable.

[snip]

It is, but coming from Kid it's only another example of this happening; his obsession ruined the opening assignment in episode three, and the only reason he snapped out of his daze long enough to blow the Pharaoh to bits is because he noticed it was asymmetrical. Not because of duty, or even that the creature was slowly killing him.

ETA - I agree with you over the pinkie thing, in that it does seem rather implausible if not impossible IRL. Personally, I rationalise it by considering this is a non-human fictional character; the normal rules of anatomy and practicality don't apply, particularly in a show based on so many bizarre notions and abilities. Like with Kid himself being the highly questionable offspring of Death, I rather think it's one of the things the author put in because he thought it looked 'cool'. But that doesn't especially bother me, as I'm enjoying SE far too much!

Guys.....Soul Eater = MFI you cant talk about subs here!
So let's get back to the storyline, k?

ahem... I FRICKING LOVED THIS EPI!! 1)Miyano Mamoru you are awesome as Kid (I think Ive said that one, two, seven, eight, twenty times already)
2) Loved the Stein/Medusa scene! That I couldnt wait for in this epi and Stein saying how he was glad he felt fear again *_*

In terms of action and storyline, this episode was great! It's probably my favorite episode so far.

The action scenes between Kid and Chrona were beautifully animated. They did Kid's Stance of Sin justice. (IMO) :D

And things are starting to pick up storywise too. Looks like Stein and Medusa have seen through each other, it's only a matter of time before they confront one another.

Poor Sid, looks like he's in trouble. I'm glad we got to see a bit of Naigs. I like her. :p

T'was a great episode.

As expected, awesome episode but not really in the way i thought. Kid started the fight off kicking ass of course:D. And OMG at Chrona's screech alpa move.:twitch:. That was epic!!. It was a short fight(hence what i said about not being in the way i thought). Death the Kid's OCD kicks in.lol. I thought it would happen later, but in its place was the Stein/Medusa scene which was dope and had me a little on edge at the same time, if Stein would have said the wrong thing, he would have been done for:upset:. Medusa's evil attitude is sexy:cool:. We also got to see Naigs:)

9.5/10 but i gotta round it off of course when i vote:cool:

Thank god. I thought I would die. :heh:

You realize that Wikipedia is edited by fans, right? Her name has never been officially romanized.

And you also realize that there's a spoiler tag function and that manga spoilers have no business in this thread, right?

I loved this episode Kid was all types of hardcore and was really determined to win even though Liz and Patty were ineffective at stopping Chrona. Stein and Medusa OMFG that scene was so intense i think even i was sweating from the killing aura in that room. When they finally clash its going to be epic. Stein never ceases to amazes me with how much he knows and his tactics are great. Damn kid and his obsession i was hoping he would keep chasing Chrona but nooooooooooooooooo he had to chase the sun. I know there is a joke in there somewhere.

The marriage and pregnancy stuff was funny i guess i will actually watch a real sub eventually. Poor Sid i hope hes ok but damn that explosion was pretty damn big i duuno if hes getting out of this one.

That scene was one Id been dying to see animated ever since I caved and read the manga. Anime did an excellent job. I remember screaming, "I knew, he knew!!" when Stein shows up. ~fangirls~
