10 Second Anime - Soul Eater Not! - Episode 12 [END]

Soul Eater Not! - Episode 12 [END]



Tsugumi makes her choice for Meister: both of them! The soul resonance between the three girls works as they defeat the witch. They all grow a little by season's end.

Heh.

So that's how soul resonance works with one weapon and two meisters. Referencing the two different fighting styles, Tsugumi changes her halberd's shape. Long pointy tip for Anya, big axe for Meme, and super-sized for both of them together.

You know things are serious when Anya chooses to wear a short skirt on her own!



No blushing this time when she has to save her friend. And Meme, after being rescued with the antidote, said it only partially worked, and she could still feel Shaura's power.



However, because Meme was still connected to the witch, they could track her and attack her. I guess it had to be them, since the other weapons and meisters of Death City were overwhelmed by the students under her control, even though she had cancelled her soul cloaking spell. Still, she was one tough witch.



That hairstyle is pretty and versatile! Today was apparently a blue day for Anya... Also wearing blue, Patty!



The Thompson sisters always have too much fun in the midst of chaos.

After all that, and the double soul resonance, our three cute girls kill Shaura in a splash of cute pink light. They saved the city, and all they got was a souvenir balloon.



Did they not get far enough in their classes to learn that a weapon is supposed to eat a bad soul? If Tsugumi ate that soul, she'd need only to eat 99 normal bad souls to become a Death Scythe. She would have been well ahead of Soul Eater himself. Hey, that's the name of the show!

Hmm.

Did Meme's name come from reference to the Latin root mem, to remember? That would be a nice connection and evocation.

Final Thoughts.

With all the action in the last episode, the epilogue quickly brings us back to our cute girls do cute things fua-fua show. Tsugumi grows out her hair, Meme gets a little more boin-boin, and Anya's skirt got a little shorter, so she's showing ankle. And we get one last "Gargantous!" to end the show too.

It wasn't exactly a fua-fua show, since it was set in the Soul Eater universe as a prequel, so that meant whatever stress the cute girls would face would be based on evil magic and using their fighting skills, but the interactions between the girls and the good looking older guys were still the same as what you would expect.

Unfortunately, with battle scenes added to the cute girl antics, there were a few noticeable dips in art quality. Trying to bridge two genres usually means a compromise somewhere in budget or schedule, and that was the case in this show too.

Still, the overall quality of a fua-fua show is how much it relaxes your heart as you watch the girls talk, joke, and tease each other, and Soul Eater Not! hit those points very well. You know you've found gold when the girls make up a pumpkin growing song and use it to help rescue their friend from the influence of an evil witch. Quite an enjoyable little show when it was trying to be a fluffy slice of life. Just don't ask Maka to swing Soul Eater around until they get some more money or time to make it look right.
