Well since I'm siding with Maka , I have to say her being jealous just because she can't understand , why a fool (ehm no flame) like Black*Star can be stronger just with physical practice , yet she struggled so hard to fight to be stronger but can't beat him yet. (aside from her smart way to find enemy's weakness when she attack + witch hunter + black blood)
I do love her for being jealous , reminded me that she is still a child , and have a bad side too. Can't say much either. She is a girl , so maybe that's why she's so emotional

A good episode. Not the best since not much happened, IMO.
I feel bad for Stein. He knows he's going mad, but can't do anything to stop it, nor does he know what to do at all. I wonder if the SHinigami is fully aware of his situation. I dougt it because he probably doesn't know about Medusa's revival nor the Snake Medusa managed to sneak into Marie's system.

She basically blamed him for everything(when it was in part her fault,too) and then yelled at him to stop screwing it up. Noone would respond to that well. And B*S complained about Maka being leader but he didnt sink so low to try and TELL ON HER, thus getting her thrown out of the class. That was pretty underhanded. Quote:
And "fake" fight or not, ALL the enemies B*S fought were at the least fighting to injure their opponent at least and failed against him. It's not like Mifune was trying to tickle him into submission. He was trying to cripple or knock him unconscious so he'd stopped fighting but couldn't. The same goes for Sid and Frankenstein. Not to mention B*S being able to harness ANOTHER weapon inside of Tsubaki AND being able to use his wavelength without a weapon at all. Like the Shinigami said, he's clearly a fighting prodigy. When it comes to brains and focus, he comes up short, but when it comes to sheer skill, he's at the top. |

Kidd is able to resonate with anyone without a single problem because he's Shinigami's son. FFS he was out killing powerful monsters on his own and he's one of the few to use not one but two weapons with absolute ease. His expertise will allow him to resonate with anyone, no matter who it is. His fault lies in his obsession with symmetry, so he cannot be the leader.
Maka would probably be the best strategist, but I do feel she's the weaker of the 3. I just wish they would make her out to be as awesome as she seemed in the first episode. But, she is more able to keep a cool head when she's in incredibly dangerous situations, so her leadership role is indeed fitting for her. Black Star, though... man. He's got untapped potential within him, but apparently there is also a very deep evil within him. However, it *is* the best attacker of all, as he's the only one to actually land punches on opponents (Stein, Sid). But he's too rash to be leading anything ever. Using him as the main attacker and support (ninja skills!) is what suits him best. The whole animosity between the two seemed off to me though. Granted, they resolve it, but still... It just felt forced.

I really liked this episode for some reason. Soul Eater is the only anime in which I watch 100% of each episode. The OP, all of the episode and the ED + preview without skipping any part.
I agree with Black Star, Maka was as selfish as him during that test. @ The guy said Black Star hasn't won many fights: Wasn't he going around challenging most of Shibusens meisters to duels, and is as of yet undefeated? |

We don't know Kid can resonate with who he feels like. We just haven't seen it become a problem with him, because despite how he and Liz have their disagreements, it's never gotten to the level of Maka's 'strength' issues a while back. Indeed, all the little arguments and symmetry issues between Kid and the Thompsons seems to be all surface if we accept what Stein said about the bond of mutual admiration and respect between them. IIRC, there's no indication that he can resonate with any Weapon/Tech just because he's a shinigami. @FlareKnight - On the one hand, I think generally a Tech being able to fight on his/her own is a good thing. On the other, knowing how important resonance between team-members is in battle, I'm not sure Black Star abandoning Tsubaki for the sake of his own ambition/power is entirely a good thing. He just doesn't know when to back down, and the fact he's now leaving her behind at a point when they need to be able to cooperate in order to face the presence inside Tsubaki leads me to think that he might be making a mistake here. |

I can easily see why Maka did what she did. She did go too far when she punched him as she let anger get the better of her making her not too much better than him. B*S's character is one that does not like to make compromises, it's his way or, no way. Everyone who know him knows that. It's reason why Soul won't work with him and Tsubaki can. I like the fact that he has ambition and drive but, if he keeps up single minded view he has it's going to hard for him to from relationships with anyone. It also liable to get him or, Tsubaki killed. Quote:

Shingami has spoke quite highly of all 3 Meisters so, that doesn't make him special there either. Quote:

I think losing to Mifune hit something home to him anyways. Especially in those fights against Mifune it was noted that Tsubaki was an exceptional weapon. The first fight was connected to that in how he wouldn't have lasted so long if she wasn't a strong weapon. They are different but it almost felt like what Maka was trying to do after losing to Chrona. That drive to get stronger and catch up to their weapons. Black Star is probably pushing himself so its not his skill level that causes them to lose. Pushing himself with trying to master the Fey Blade and fighting other meister teams is part of it. Also think Asura being set loose has contributed to the change in him as well.
So I don't think he's trying to abandon Tsubaki. Just that he's trying to strengthen himself separately so when they do fight together they are at a higher level. The meister fights are probably his personal training and then he goes with her to work on grasping that other presence within Tsubaki. Do think its going to lead to a bad situation at some point. Like on the bridge vs Free. Because Maka and Soul couldn't align it could have ended badly. Or when Maka tried to tackle Free who is immortal off a bridge . Now if Black Star wasn't hasty it wouldn't have mattered but I'm trying to focus on that one moment. At least that's how I'm looking at it. Quote:
Do like slipping that bit in there. Maka throws the first punch but that still makes her better than Black Star is . Quote:
Besides its not like Black Star won't make compromises. If he was like that would have picked a fight with Maka and Chrona in the race to stop Asura from coming back. Instead he realized how important that fight was for her and let her do what she wanted.

Although I can easily see them disagreeing, it getting that heated and both of them being THAT bitter just seemed crowbarred in. Quote:
It sounds like you're letting your biased shape your reasoning here. I can understand WHY Maka reacted that way, it still doesnt make it cool. B*S has had that show-boating style from the beginning, and all of a sudden Maka decides she's going to throw a tantrum and try to get him thrown out of class because of it? Lame. Quote:
