Black Star was my favorite Soul Eater character (until I've read Kid's intro xD)
He's a parody of an annoying and typical shounen character. I like it that he has exagerrated those negative traits, because instead of annoying, it turned out to be so damn funny xD Man, I love crack xD But if Black Star's serious, he could actually be so awesome Yay for Black Star! As for Tsubaki, she's a lovely girl Lucky for Black Star to have someone as nice and sweet as her for a partner I admire her for being so selfless! Oh she's terrific

Black Star pwns that dattebayo guy in all aspects. He's BIGGER, is the STAR, commands the STAGE, and has blue hair. And he's got much better weapon proficiency than anyone in that series.
If anything, Maka is more related to the orange ninja by way of the Drama CD.

The thing that makes Blackstar salvageable and interesting/tolerable as a character is the "Wiley Coyote" effect. His ego slams him to the pavement every time. He suffers consequences for being an asshat. It makes him far more tolerable than the sorts of characters he represents - it actually makes him funny.
It does make you wonder about Tsubaki's "stand by her man" determination Everyone in this series is a little bit dysfunctional - it lifts them out of stereotype cardboard just enough that even if you don't like the archetype, *these* characters are bit easier to swallow.

Full props to Tsubaki though for sticking by him. She can see the good qualities and does all she can to support Black Star. Of course someone like her could get someone else. The variety of weapons and her personality would be easy to work with. But she sticks with Black Star so you know the guy is worthwhile.

Well interesting stuff from episode 5. Seems like with his soul type would be hard to find a partner for Black Star. While Tsubaki is the type that could work well with most. Have to say the images for their souls was pretty entertaining. Though that episode had to be rough on Tsubaki overall. Did seem for a bit there that Black Star got taken out for good this time. Luckily it all turned out alright.
Was a surprise to hear Black Star called a genius....well at least in how he can use wave lengths to attack opponents.

Since he is a stereotype for shonen leads, it wouldn't be unusual for him to be some sort of battle genius, revealing hidden potentials and breaking limits when he gets serious.
Being a genius at using his soul wavelengths is similar to having kyubi, bankai, going to a higher gear or even 'spin on'. He's quite a cool character to me, but I wouldn't like him as much if there wasn't Tsubaki, they are a great team to watch.
