Soul Eater NOT!
Oshimeter
Synopsis
Soul Eater NOT! is a spin-off and side story that takes place one year prior to the events of the original Soul Eater. At the Death Weapon Meister Academy, humans born with the power to transform into weapons and those with the power to wield these weapons (Meisters) train to hone their natural talent. The characters of the main series are enrolled in the Especially Advantaged Talent class, where they train to become warriors of justice capable of defeating what threats prey on innocent lives—or even the entire world. Other students at the DWMA are less talented. Members of the Normally Overcome Target class focus less on being warriors of justice and more on controlling their powers so they don't hurt themselves or anyone around them. Tsugumi Harudori, a new halberd-transforming student, meets Meisters Meme Tatane and Anya Hepburn and quickly grows indecisive about which of the two new friends should be her partner. As they learn to use these powers and settle in, their lives as everyday students will be far from normal.

The fighting scene is too short, it seems like it was rushed to finish. It's going to be a long one.
In this episode, the former character of the soul eater was shown. And I was a little disappointed with Tsigumi's soul resonance.
I didn't expect something like that to happen, the plot twist is nice. Finally, it looks like there will be a fight in the next episode.
There's nothing special about this episode, so it's a bit boring. It's just like an additional episode.
In this episode, I thought eternal senpai would never recover. Then even though they were in the hospital, the comedy part was still there, it would make you cry with laughter.
Much like the OG show's ending, the writing scrambles to wrap everything up at once, never letting the climax breathe. While the pacing feels way too rushed, the visuals at least stay consistently solid throughout.
The writing builds up great tension at first, but then it completely flips and feels way too rushed. The pace goes from a steady climb to a chaotic sprint. Visually, the darker style looks really sharp, but the overall execution feels pretty messy.
Did not expect this twist at all. The writing finally gets to the point, giving the plot an unexpected, intense pace even if it feels a bit rushed. The animation handles the action smoothly and looks clean.
At first I thought it was another boring episode but no fight happened. And I was surprised because of the unexpected action. And the girls' ordinary days changed because of the trouble that happened.
The tension is still there, but it is much lighter now. It splits into separate short stories and loses all its previous tension. This sudden drop in pace feels very disjointed. Visually, it stays bright and clean.
The writing takes you on a weird ride. It sets a heavy, tense mood early on, but quickly pivots to a sunny, lighthearted atmosphere. The sudden drop in pace feels strange. The visuals feel a bit rushed, but the character chemistry carries it.
It develops a totally different kind of tension when real danger hits. Even though the girls' daily lives keep taking over everything, the episode's saving grace is a sudden fight scene that absolutely steals the show.
In this episode, it was slightly boring it didn't meet the scene I wanted. Maybe skip this one or fast-forward
The writing lacks the original's grit, but introducing new characters brings a rougher vibe that contrasts the cutesy tone. Seeing them in this new light has its own charm.
The story attempts a sudden, intense shift into a darker plot, but it isn’t built up perfectly. It maintains a casual pace and lighthearted fluff and lacks the sharp edge of the original series.
Still doesn't have that classic Soul Eater vibe yet. The writing leans way more into a cute, daily school life aesthetic.
That Kim's secret is out. At least she has a partner and is no longer lonely.
The visuals are so clean and pretty to look at, but the story feels way too safe compared to the original.
This episode is so cute, its all about love hahahaha. I don't know if it's a love triangle or a love square hahahahaha
Missing that original gritty charm. The story leans too hard into generic daily stuff, making the pace incredibly slow. Visuals look clean and bright, but it just lacks that unique Soul Eater vibe. But if you like a "girls' day out" vibe, you might like it.
