Soul Eater

"A pure soul resides in a pure body~"

I love "Soul Eater" it's like the best manga/anime to come out for a while. Though I think of it more as a cartoon more than anything else. The reason being the style and story telling of the series, it's not very common. Actually it reminds me of what anime used to be, like back when "Speed Racer" and other titles were out, it's more creative that's for sure.

I need to start collecting the DVDs of the series (no they haven't came out in the U.S. yet) Here is the cover of the first DVD

This is actually the first time where I actually really like the main character. Maka is actually a pretty cool girl. Her voice can get a bit annoying once in a while, though it is better than most. The person who does the voice for Maka, well she doesn't give her a high pitched voice. And, yes, that is actually really surprising. It's a tiny bit nasaly, but it doesn't hurt.

The guy coming out of the sythe "Soul Eater Evans" or "Soul" well I like his manerisms a lot. His speaking manerism has to do with "cool" everything that is cool in the world is good to him. Items and attitude, all must be "cool". The other more physical mannerism is when he eats a soul. His mouth movemets are really exagerated. Yeah you've seen people eat in anime and it's subtle, but here it's drawn out, because the chewwing is a part of Soul's personallity. He says that souls don't really taste like anything, but he loves to chew them.

There are a lot of fun characters in the show. And it's really great, if you ever have the time I suggest you either watch it or read it.
