Here is a link to the summary of the chapter for those who can't wait for the actual chapter.
http://nenena.livejournal.com/223534.html Obvious spoilers abound. So now... Oh my god. Let's get to my thoughts before actually reading the chapter. Spoiler for CHAPTER 62 SPOILERS:

The name of the corps is Spartoi.
Greek mythological warriors that sprungs out of sowed dragon teeth. And lol at Frey D Sadoko, a serial killer that's a mix of Freddy Kruger and Sadako from The Ring. She makes you listen to cursed music, then kills you in your dreams. Hahaha oh wow.

Speaking of Death Scythes...isn't Tsubaki just a witch's soul away from becoming one too? They did make a big deal about Mifune being a 'great soul' in the beginning, after all. lol wow, if this actually happens (as in Ookubo brings this up as a plot point later) then I gotta say his writing is tight. Soul's cool and all, but I am just drooling over the hotness that would be Death Scythe Tsubaki.

Mifune's soul was as much as 99 human souls, they only hunt down kishin souls, so it didn't count. On the other hand, blackstar has fought many enemies in his long journey so he's bound to reach 100 sometime soon. I was wondering when Maka and Soul would get back to 100, didn't expect it to be now

mm, the whole 'kishin' soul thing was an original distinction only made in the anime, if I remember correctly. In the manga, the reason Black Star went after Mifune in the first place was because that would allow him to swiftly gather 99 'normal' souls in one go.

Hm, did anyone feel Shinigami-sama isn't as goody goody as he looks?
With him hiding all the artifacts in the storage, and paying almost no attention to what Noah is up too (and Noah happens to be the Eibon collector too). I say this sounds fishy, really fishy. Could Shinigami-sama purposefully let Noah runs around doing what he wants?? |

^ I expect it all to go according to shinigami's plan, whatever that may be.
@ Sno-oki: Spoiler:
I think I'll leave SE for now and wait till the chapters pile up next year, this story is too good to wait for. |

We have to remember that Shinigami basically has to police the entire world. If he panics, EVERYONE panics. He's spent centuries building his fluffy-happy persona, just to provide a sense of peace. If he freaks out over his son, there would be mass panic.

No, it's correct.
It's 99 souls + 1 soul of a witch = 100 souls total. He already got the soul of a witch, Arachne, remember? So he ate the 100th soul (99th normal soul), and just had to eat that Arachne soul he kept around for this occasion.

You know how all of Kid's Shibusen mates believe that he's alright and stuff? Yeah, even they care about Kid more than his own daddy. Shinigami doesn't need to freak out over Kid, but he hasn't shown a tiny bit of concern at all for Kid, I have to say that's pretty impressive for a father. Unless this Spartoi group is now off to hunt for the magician that Shingami is so interested in, then I just find it a little strange. =/ Granted, Shinigami isn't exactly normal, and he has a huge amount of problems riding on his shoulders, but still...
Spoiler for Justin, Gikiro, and Noah:
I just hope they don't go into the Maka assassination thing already, since the little minion seems like a boring little lap dog and it'll only lead to more SoulxMaka fluff. I wouldn't mind so much if the manga was weekly, but a month is long time to wait for development, and I'd rather them focus on the big problems like Medusa or the Kishin himself.
