10 Second Anime - Soul Eater Not! - Episode 3

Soul Eater Not! - Episode 3

The witch of the dorms isn't all that bad, even if she does give out bad stage names. Clay and Akane used to be in the EAT class. Hint of the Big Bad?

Heh.

Gargantos... This is going to be a thing to see how Tsugumi uses this exclamation each episode. I guess it's like "Dude," for me.

Clay and Akane better not be a reference to Clay Aiken.

Kim, the witch of the girl's dorm, used to be so cute. What happened?

Why does it take a spinoff story that's basically a prologue to the original Soul Eater to explain why Soul Eater, Black Star, and Death The Kid had such weird names when their partners had normal ones? Eternal Feather (heh) uses her strange stage name as an example of a naughty thing Kim did, submitting the paperwork for her.

Finally in the third episode we get an explanation for the title of this show. They're not just telling us it's "not" the same Soul Eater story, but there are two classes for the Weapon and Meister students. NOT, for Normally Overcome Target, and EAT, for Exceptionally Advantaged Talent. It's all the kids in the EAT class that we saw in the first Soul Eater storyline. Two tracks for magic using students? This sounds familiar... Interestingly enough, all the kids share the same dorms, and there doesn't seem to be any animosity between the kids for having different abilities.

Tsugumi is such a nice girl, thinking that anyone that hums while making food can't be a bad person. Nice, but naïve.

Hmm.

We got the barest glance at the Big Bad for the season, after she's been sending out minions under the moniker Traitor, and asking Death Weapon Meister Academy students if they slept well last night. We know that Kim is having nightmares of her old cute self attacking her, so this might all be related.

Clay and Akane used to be in the EAT class, and they are indeed operating undercover, going so far as to address their old classmates like Ox Ford as their senior. Mr. Sid seems to be in on the covert operation.

Anya mentions that she ran away from the castle to enroll in DWMA, so maybe this is why she needs secret bodyguards? And was Traitor attacking students just to look for her?

Why is Ox trying so hard to protect Kim anyway? He goes so far as to take part time jobs to pay back the money she takes from other people. Is she still the school idol to him?

I will say that anyone that carries cute Band-Aids and uses healing magic is probably not a bad person.
