Please note that the 3rd and 4th opening are when Soul Eater reaired in Japan after it's initial showing. They're usually referred to as the "Repeat openings" The first two are the ones that are usually associated with the series.
@@maxkrepps9474 tbh whenever someone uses please note without it being an addition or important part of info i always found it passive aggressive. you usually use pleas note when adding something to what your explaining. for example you explain a plan of action then add please not that if you do this this will happen. or it can be used in a warning like please not if you do not follow orders you will be punished. but for just saying it like the original comment did it feels passive aggressive.
Soul Eater is both creepy, fun, and hilarious! The whole world is Halloween inspired and every character super interesting/likable. Highly recommend this one! I think the show aired in 2008, but it still holds up.
imho it deserves the Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood treatment. the manga was great and i would love to see it all be animated. "Soul Eater Resonance" or smth along those lines.
@@Gwydkid2003 well the courage punch was shit.. but the sealing is even shittier... I would've liked big fight. If they fight the same way in the anime but just win without this courage punch it would be perfect.
This one's a cult classic. It's a fantastic example of how style can sometimes be substance. It still holds up well today even if it can feel a bit tropey, but something about the art style and iconography is just so distinct and so inspiring.
Though I kinda wish they'd give it the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood treatment and remake it with the proper storyline at some point, since the manga wasn't done when they got to the halfway point so the rest is made up by the animators.
Yeah, it can whilplash you a bit between character based situational comedy, battles for the fate of the universe, goofy slapstick, sinister conspiracies and desperate struggles for survival, but it's battle animation is top notch and I was so disappointed that they cut it short after season 2.
@@GOTGames if you do watch this just remember ep4 is where the story starts. the first 3 introduce the characters and are funny as heck. DING! DONG! DONG! DING!
Soul eater was one of the first animes I watched and damn, I liked it so much. The first opening will forever be stuck in my head. The anime had such an unique vibe and characters.
i rewatched this last year, since i was in the mood. the series is mostly tame, with Blair (the cat lady) being the target of fan service when she shows up. the story is quite unique with its mix of action, comedy, and it's well placed introduction of horror elements. the basic gist given from the first episode is the main characters are students of an academy that train protectors of the peace. to which the Grim Reaper is the headmaster. it can generally be said that half the student body are capable of transforming into weapons, which are wielded by their partners. the goal of each student is to hunt down 99 souls of the corrupt, followed by a single witch's soul in order for their weapon partner to be powerful enough to be wielded by the Reaper
"Wait, what the fuck was that?" is a pretty good synopsis of the show. It's just a fun ride. It's generally pretty tame, but there are some moments of fanservice, which are the ecchi bits. Also, the OPs and EDs for GATE are pretty solid, and the OP for The Greatest Demon Lord is Reborn as a Typical Nobody goes way to hard.
"call of the nigh" (yofukashi no uta in japanese) is an anime with amazing op and ed done by the same band. Actually the writer was initially inspired by that band's song called "Call of the night" (which is why she named it like that) and asked them to do the music for the anime and use some of their songs. Obviously the song called call of the night is used as the ed and an original song called "daten" is the op. They are FIRE. They even have some great FIRST TAKE performances! edit: forgot to mention the nname of the band is creepy nuts!
Soul Eater is a good starter anime. It's more literally dark than it is story wise, but it is however, quite hilarious. Also, the "naked witch" is actually a cat with a lot of magic power that frequently transforms into a human.
@@GOTGames bit of a good news bad news when you check it out. it's got an anime only ending because it came out in a time when anime often ended before the manga was even close to ending.
Soul Eater in art style is pretty much Disney characters with Tim Burton backgrounds, the whole thing starts as kind of a light hearted Halloweeny theme then gets darker in themes, although I would describe it's more serious elements as body horror, rather than gore/blood, it strays more to the former than the later. The premise is kids go to witch hunter school, some people are the hunters, others have the power to turn into weapons for those hunters to use, when a hunter kills a target, the weapon eats the targets soul, thus the name, with the goal of each team of Meister (the hunter) and weapon(s) being to collect 99 evil human souls, and a witches soul so that the weapon can evolve and become a weapon for death to use against the main antagonist whom I won't name here. The plot starts out as more of a villain of the week slice of life deal before the main antagonist becomes active and the real plot begins to come out. As for the anime, honestly, I would read it rather than watch it, at best do both. What the anime does well is great, but it hit a hard wall a bit over halfway through when it caught up to the manga, and then devolved into mediocre filler with a non-cannon anime only ending, pretty much the same as the first full metal alchemist anime did, which is why it's one of the most wished for properties out there to get the treatment FMA did with brotherhood, because what happens in the manga after the anime went off in the wrong direction is amazing and really deserves to be properly animated. But sadly, it never has been, and to my knowledge, there are no current plans either.
So a quick rundown for Soul Eater. A Death God runs a school for demon / witch hunters. The students are split up as Meisters (Weapons welders) and Weapons (students who literally transform into weapons) and their goal is to hunt 99 demon souls and 1 witch souls to rank up.
You'd love Soul Eater bro, no doubt about it, it's such an underrated anime that needs to be watched by everyone, it's such a cult classic. Though it does diverge from the manga at around episode 36 I think? You should definitely read the manga after watching the anime It's like a shounen that's halloween themed there's demons and bloody action and psychological conflict It's about a group of students that attend the Death Weapons & Meisters Academy (DWMA) in pairs(usually) of students who can turn into weapons and students who wield them. They hunt demons and let their weapon partner eat the demon soul to strengthen them. The main goal is to let them eat 99 demon souls and then 1 witch soul to evolve them into a "Death Scythe". The school is run by Death and any student who attains Death Scythe status can work as his partner. But there's a greater evil underneath it all, something the students weren't ready for. Also, seasons consisting of 12/24 episodes is a pretty new concept for anime. Soul Eater aired in 2006 and had 51 episodes. No season breaks.
They dont fight demons the 99 souls they need to collect are human souls only the kishin and death-sama can be classified as demons but they also were human at one point
Soul Eater is a shonen action comedy so it never gets too dark, I love Soul Eater also adult shonen tends to have a tag "Seinen" it doesn't mean it's dark just means it's for an older audience.
Gosh it's been awhile since I've seen anything soul eater but it's a huge part of my childhood even tho it's not that old in the first place but still a gem nonetheless imo. I believe the target audience is definitely for young teens in the way it does "those things" if u know what I mean. It's tame all things considered tho and 100% a good watch for Halloween
I think you would love Bungou Stray Dogs! It has a lot of dark humor, great characters, solid plot and the fourth season is going to air soon. I think the fact that one of the VAs (Voice Actor) is actually the lead singer in a band (Granrodeo) and sings two of the ops would really interest you.
Stray Dogs is also great.The show is spectacular, and the little details about the 'authors' is fantastic. Durarara! and Baccano! written by Ryohgo Narita would also probably be in his lane.
Someone who actually mention this anime. It has so many good openings and endings but somehow people seem to have forgotten it's existence. I think it might be because they are difficult to find on TH-cam since they are heavily copyrighted.
Soul Eater is a definite recommend watch. Its like one of the top ten "new to anime" type shows that's just an easy to dive into. Holds up to time very well.
The last 2 you saw are 'repeat show openings' so they don't really have the show concept. I personally love this anime (and I love how the final episode goes unlike many - I love the climax and ending and how the story gets resolved). I actually consider this my 'Halloween anime' - I re-watch it every year in October. You'd love it & it's perfect timing (to at least start it) - if you watch it, you NEED to watch Episodes 1-3 which are 'prologue episodes' that introduce our main characters. A bunch of stuff in later episodes won't properly make sense if you skip them.
@@GOTGames the anime changed a lot of things from the manga and it didn't cover the whole manga. after a certain point it went on it's own way compared to the manga. if you want the story of the creastor of Soul Eater then you have to read the manga. i wouldn't recommend to watch the anime when it doesn't follow the actual story of the creator and it's not even complete and there's more but no season 2.
The Re:CREATORS Openings are amazing. Every song Sawano Hiroyuki touches turns to pure musical gold, like "Tot Musica" (sung by Ado, also one of the best musicians of our time) from the One Piece Film: RED
Made in Abyss is an astonishingly good anime, but as for the openings, OP1 in particular is a rare example where the vocals are sung "in character" for the leads of the show. So not the kind of music that you'll ever hear on the radio, but a fresh experience for you!
This! The arrangements in made in abyss along with the stunning environments it’s an absolutely beautiful experience. Not to mention it being an incredibly dark anime.
Made in abyss is such a good show! If you react to the made in abyss openings you should definitely react to the osts as well, and in particular the Hanezeve Caradhina ost by kevin penkin.
@@GOTGames Made in Abyss is a good example for openings that show not in the slightest the tone/core of the show in the opening. The artstyle and openings are very devceiving - the show is actually very gruesome at some times and tacles very hardcore topics of humanity's (and nature's=the abyss) worst behaviours/essences. Made in Abyss has 2 seasons(in total 21 episodes) so far and 3 movies which need to be seen in order to follow the story. The show is very good but absolutely breathtaking at some points and you should be prepared to feel very raw and heavy emotions.
Soul Eater!! But such a shame you didn't check 4th Ending (Strength)! It's a heavier song and something I think you might like :) (imo the best song out of all openings and endings) Also, now that you've watched Soul Eater, you totally have to check D.Gray-man, too!
Definitely. If we are talking Tim Burton-esque anime, Soul Eater is absolutely the most, followed by D.Gray-man. And both are among my most wanted anime to get a new season. I mean, Soul Eater ended, but it did before the manga. So the ending was completely different and some of the BEST parts of the manga were left out. Dammit, I want to see Black Star's turning point and after animated. Kid too. Maka too! I can't even say what because it's spoilers, but it's awesome.
@@rafaelcalmon2858 I read manga to DGM (sadly it's plagued by countless hiatuses due to the author's health), but never tried Soul Eater - yet now you made me interested!
not seasons but there's specific episodes in most anime called "beach episodes" or "the hot springs episode" where the characters just chill and have fun
Vocalist is the talented Tomoko Kawase! She’s the vocalist for the band The Brilliant Green, and has solo work under her alter egos Tommy February6 and Tommy Heavenly6. This song is PAPERMOON under her Tommy Heavenly6 name
I still haven't worked up the courage to start Season 3 after what the movie at the end of Season 2 did to me. The art in this anime is so pretty, and the character designs are so cute, but the story is like a cruel collab between Lovecraft and Harlan Ellison.
Soul eater is a fantastic Halloween watch. It’s verrry burton-esque. It also takes place in a different worlds america! Probably cause the author really wanted to make a Death Valley joke but it’s an amazing time. Especially if you go read the manga afterwards, canon did diverge as many did back then.
Tommy Heavenly/February6 (Tomoko Kawase) was basically the Miku Kobato of the 90s early 00s. She had 3 musical projects, The Brilliant Green which was kinda Alt Rock, Tommy February6 was a synth-pop journey and a few years later Tommy Heavenly6 was her goth rock project. She was also a host on MTV, a model, TV personage, everything I expect Miku will become in the future haha
Soul Eater is a really good show! It was maybe my 5th anime I ever watched. I believe it’s rated M and it is a horror-parody/Halloween anime. I’ll definitely recommend Noragami (2 Ops and Ed’s) and Bungou Stray Dogs (3 Ops and Ed’s). They are both really good shows and they have great ops.
On the topic of Made in Abyss, it is something you should definitely check out. It's a show that hides its true nature in it's marketing and opening, and slowly devolves into something very dark and unsettling. Right up your alley
So many years have passed but the first Soul Eater opening is still one of my favorites ever and I still love rewatching some moments, that make me laugh every time. This anime is sooo chaotic and hilarious (but it also has dark plot episodes, so it is one of the best anime) And 1. Yes, moon and sun laughing all the time, it's just part of the unusual style of this anime 2. There is ecchi here, but not too much. And the cat-witch is constantly undressing and Soul always ends up with a fountain of blood from his nose. It's just one of those constant jokes.
It's been a while since I've watch Soul Eater, but it's definitely worth watching! I've always liked the manga's ending better (since the show deviates from the original story at some point half-way through) but the anime isn't bad at all. And don't worry, anything "ecchi" or lewd in it it's mostly used for comedy lol. As for openings to watch next, I would recomend Gintama's openings since you seem to be working your way around reacting to animes with lots of openings. They are all consistently good, and some of them are even amazing. They are a ride to react to, to say the least.
The anime came out before the manga was even halfway done. So it deviated because it outpaced the manga. Instead of just ending on a cliff hanger until the manga continued, they just did their own thing and told their own story.
The idea of Soul Eater is that all the kids are either apprentices of the Grim Reaper or of the Repaer´s Scythe, and go hunting down souls that refuse to go to the afterlife...with the villains being either witches that refuse to die, or their allies. But yeah, in Death City, moon is always smiling.
Soul Eater is one of my absolute favorite animes, it has both a deep creepy story with some comedic relief. All the characters are so in depth that you can relate with at least one of them cause they're realistic emotions! This anime has a spot in my heart ❤️ please react to it, you'll love t ❤️ as an artist I appreciate the art style so much too!
I'd love to see follow ups to these where he sits with someone familiar with the show and gets to ask questions and throw his speculations and learn what he got right.
I just discovered this channel and - solely - because of Soul Eater. It seems like your already interested and its such an awesome show! Well paced, great characters, dark and funny and serious and twists it's just amazing, one of very few I've ever taken the time to re watch and even fewer I've invested in getting the manga (that itself is it's own wild ride after a while because the story starts to get a little different, still AMAZING) 15/10 would recommend both or either
Yes, "Made in Abyss" is a really good anime to check out. I would also like to recomment "86" (yes, the anime title is just a number). And since you seem to like anime with a bit of insenity check out "Dorohedoro" OP. Good luck guessing what this show is about XD edit: I just remembered. "Drifters" (definitly check this out at some point) and "ACCA"
Here I come answering questions once more in a completely spoiler-free way. Basically, Soul Eater looks *really* messed up, but the anime itself is actually really funny. It was animated by studio bones which always will and has delivered amazing animation. Secondly, for the anime genres. We have a lot, and by seeing your reactions you really like shounen (AOT or Soul Eater for example). To literally translate shounen, it would be 'young man'. So shounen animes are basically animes that include action, adventure, and fighting either monsters or other supernatural things.
You should definitely react to the Rising of the Shield Hero openings. There are only 3, all done by the same artist, MADKID, but they also did an English and a Japanese version of each the English versions were used for the English dubbed version of the anime.
Love papermoon song, Soul Eater was one of the first anime I watched in 2008 and the reason of the ''Evans'' in my nickname that is the last name of one of the main characters. Soul Eater Repeat Show was just Japan re-airing Soul Eater episodes with new openings and endings.
The art style IS what made me watch this. I don't watch anime in general but this isn't your regular anime. It has everything from comedy, to drama to crazy fight scenes... honestly, it's awesome
Soul Eater was my first anime- it's been in my life longer than I've known BTS, Stray Kids, and TXT which is crazy. I definitely recommend it after you finish Attack on Titan! It's only 51 episodes on Netflix (correct me if I'm remembering wrong) and is really great for someone just getting into anime. It starts out more as you would expect (a bunch of kids that fight bad guys going to school) but then in the second half it REALLY takes a turn on the more serious/dark side. It has great humor and plot (it can get gory at parts during the fight scenes). The naked cat witch lady you kept seeing is really only like that in the first half of the show lol so if that type of fanservice content is stuff you don't really want to see she isn't in every episode. Overall in my opinion a very classic anime that has a lot of love that I believe you will really enjoy! (P.S. can't wait to see you finish reacting to the Fairy Tail openings! Hope you end up doing Black Clover endings as well 💜)
Soul Eater is weird in that it starts out pretty ecchi and gets tamer pretty quickly. The manga it was based on started out as a goofy three shot series with lots of Naruto-style barely-safe-for-publication nudity and Maka's acrobatic fighting style leading to lots of panty shots, with one episode about each of the hero/meister teams. Once the manga got picked up as an actual series those elements got dialed back a lot. When it got adapted to an anime, things got dialed back even further, with most of the panty-shots removed. (Though this leads to a weird situation where Maka's long coat often mimics the elaborate physics from the manga shot-for-shot, while her skirt violates physics in all sorts of ways to maintain censorship without changing the camera angle. It can be a little uncanny to see them next to each other even if you don't know the history.) Maka's acrobatic scythe fighting techniques are so flashy and dynamic that many of them were incorporated into Ruby's fighting style for RWBY, especially in the first season.
You should react to fire force openings Fun fact the person who created the soul eater manga also created the fire force force manga in other words both shows were created by the same person
Ughhhhhh soul eater is my favorite anime of ALL TIME its absolutely glorious so cool so awesome i ADORE the art style (it mimics the manga style SUPER closely its amazing, its really like seeing the manga come to life) i love the development every character goes through and i love the music so much its all the best
I'd love to see you react to Senki Zesshou Symphogear openings 🥺 it's a niche, underrated gem that a lot of people don't know about. The premise is really wild and it doesn't sound like a good time but even after putting it off for ages, when I finally started watching it I couldn't stop and now I'm obsessed 🤣 very musical show with a great soundtrack about magical girls in Mech suits fighting monsters!
I highly recommend watching soul eater. It’s just 51 episodes and meshes themes of childish hope and humor with dark psychological torment. Aired in 2008. You follow a demon hunter school where students who channel energy are paired with students who turn into weapons.
This might be an odd request but instead of anime opening, could you react to the Soul Eater AMV "This Is Halloween". I don't often care for these types of things, but this AMV in particular is a CLASSIC, plus it's certainly about to be halloween soon, so I'd say no better time to react to it than now.
Soul Eater was the first anime i ever watched fully i had seen naruto and dragonball on tv before but i never finished them if my friend didn’t introduce me to Soul Eater i probably wouldn’t have gotten into anime
Soul Eater has a special place in my memories as one of the first animes I've watched. Though this is my first time finding out there were Japanese special openings Edit: If memory serves right, if an anime has more mature themes it is called a seinen, whereas MHA would be a shounen anime due to being aimed at teenage guys. AOT would fall somewhere in the middle Edit 2: I highly recommend checking out the Kekkai sensen openings, and the first terraformars opening (amazing break)
100% kekkai sensen /blood blockade Battlefront is my big recommend with op and ed, especially the ed it's so good! Plus as a show recommendation as a sci-fi action blend you don't see much in anime
There's a ton of different categories for anime, many being sorted by which audience it's intended for. As example many actionpacked/adventure series like this, Fairy Tail, Naruto, Dragon Ball, One Piece etc. are usually sorted as "Shonen" anime, meant for a somewhat younger male audience (13-17ish old) even if all kinds of ppl can enjoy it. These may still display some blood during fighting and what not tho despite being meant for younger audience, anime isn't as censored as western cartoons. "Shojo" anime is the opposite, usually more drama/romantic/magical girl driven series intended for younger female audiences. HOWEVER regardless of genre there's this concept called "fanservice" in anime. As in series not in the ecchi/hentai categories may still have some scenes or events happening of a bit lewd nature to well, service the fans of the manga/anime. This is why many anime's have an episode where the characters either go to a beach or a hotspring, an opportunity to have the characters in less clothing. The fanservice may also be intergrated in part of the comedy like "main characters falls onto a girl and accidentially feels her chest, followed by comedic pummeling of main character" or wind blowing up skirts to provide panty shots, main character gets sudden burst of classic, comedic nose bleed.
When I first saw the thumbnail, I was like „No waaaaaay!! I can't believe he actually did it” :))))))) It really made my day :))) I loved this video and seeing your reaction :))) I'm happy that you liked it. It was one of my favorite anime in my childhood. It's something that can make you laugh, cry and creeped out at the same time. :)) (I also agree that you should watch the endings too.) And for the next anime to watch after Attack on Titan, my personal recommendation is: FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Soul Eater or Vinland Saga (cause you said you like vikings). ^_^
The anime definitely has more dark themes than most. Of course it has a lot of comedy but I highly recommend it for its story and animation alone. The in anime music and OST is also crazy unique and my favorite after Attack On Titan. Really hope you watch it!
Soul Eater is creepy yet light-hearted, it's actually a tradition of mine to rewatch the series each Halloween. About time for me to get started on that.
soul eater has some fan service but it was my first anime which i watched around the age of 9 i think and to me none of the fan service mattered. i just fell in love with the characters, the music, the animation and especially the story it all amazed me and thats how i fell in love with anime
From what I understand, aot is a seinen which means like adult. While others are shounens which mean like teenager. Also, I recommend the golden kamuy openings. They are really good and I think the anime itself is underrated
Those terms also refer specifically to anime with mostly male demographic. Shoujo and Josei I think are the female counterparts. Shoujo and Shounen for younger demographic. Josei and Seinen for more mature themes. At least that's how I've always understood it.
This is a super weird but awesome anime. 😄 Sometimes badass, sometimes goofy... and so much more! 6:50 - you really got it's vibes through the opening.
I've watched Soul Eater right through about 3 or 4 times, have the boxset... and I've never seen those repeat openings before. XD The show is definitely a lot of fun, and the art style/atmosphere is a huge part of that. It's definitely a lot lighter in tone than Attack on Titan, but you may very well enjoy it. What I can say is that the first three episodes are individual stories that introduce the three main character pairs (well, two pairs and a trio) and just gives an introduction to the world itself; if you're interested in checking it out, I'd recommend just doing those three episodes and seeing what you think. Might make for a good three-in-one video for your 200k, or just for a Saturday show if you feel like it, without needing to commit to the entire anime right off the bat.
Yup, its the childish one but also dark, personally i love this mix, you had a point mentioning Burton, if you like his movies you would love Soul Eater too. Its one of a kind. I still dream about a remake because story goes worse in second half, but anyways its worth to check out ; )
Aaaahhh soul eater !!! This brings back so many memories! I loved this series but I was so mad they separated the story from the manga I'm not sure if it was cause the story got too dark for their liking or cause the anime caught up with the manga but I remember being mad cause they changed the part that made the story even deeper and darker but still a very great show with amazing characters and great music the character themes are quite nice as well! Glad to see you react to it thank you
I didn't even know those 3rd and 4th openings existed until I watched this. The first 2 are the original openings, and apparently the second 2 are from when the show re-aired in Japan. I've never seen an anime re-do openings before, very interesting.
"Should I watch 'Made In Abyss'?" I don't know, do you like crying nonstop? Not tearing up and sniffling... I mean hours and HOURS of bawling your eyes out! Is that what you want?
I have a weird suggestion for you: Mr. Osomatsu openings A really underrated in America series. And a while ago you asked about opening visuals where you have no idea what's going on...? Well, this show immediately came to mind in absurd visuals and comedy. They're amazing. lol
Ah Soul Eater such a classic. I wish they finished it. I never read the manga but the anime left us on a cliff hanger. I still think you should watch it.
Nice. You should do the endings too. At least 1-4, I don’t know about the repeat show endings, but the originals are really cool. Favorites are 3 and 4.
Soul eater is definitely one of my earliest animes I remember seeing and it is very fun. I will probably be recommending others later on(I can't think of anything at the moment)but Eighty Six is a series I think you'll like!
Soul Eater was one of the first like REAL animes i watched and i highly recommend it, the last two openings i havn't seen but they sound pretty cool :>
Honestly soul eater hits so hard and it’s just a lost gem! I don’t think you’ll ever find anything quite like it! Everything about it is unique even the clichés themselves!! God I hope you watch this as soon as possible we need more fans out there!
Soul Eater is more or less 15 years old and the manga it’s adapted from wasn’t done when it was airing so the anime writers had to make up it’s own ending because seasonal breaks weren’t a thing yet for most anime. Luke have you considered watching the first episode of any anime your interested because the openings aren’t always a good way to judge a show by. That’s especially clear with you when you think a season is laid back just because the opening doesn’t show much action when that is not what happens for the majority of the season.
THIS LOOKS COMPLETELY CRAZY IN THE BEST WAY!!!

You should react the bungo stray dogs all openings
React to gantz op, its just one, but you can see other op anime, for example “91 days” its just one too pls
Please do a reaction to both fire force openings
And please do a full reaction to opening 2 of fireforce
Please note that the 3rd and 4th opening are when Soul Eater reaired in Japan after it's initial showing. They're usually referred to as the "Repeat openings" The first two are the ones that are usually associated with the series.
I'm not antagonizing you, but I am wondering why you said "please note"? It seems like an odd choice of words to me.
@@maxkrepps9474 Please note that "please note" is used when you want to highlight something and/or want to bring attention to a point.
@@maxkrepps9474
Please note that what people are asking is for you to take note on the note they are asking you to take note off.
@@maxkrepps9474 tbh whenever someone uses please note without it being an addition or important part of info i always found it passive aggressive. you usually use pleas note when adding something to what your explaining. for example you explain a plan of action then add please not that if you do this this will happen. or it can be used in a warning like please not if you do not follow orders you will be punished. but for just saying it like the original comment did it feels passive aggressive.
on the first topic, ty, i'm a very long time soul eater fan and i didn't now those 2 openings.
“was watching it when it first come out“
Soul Eater is both creepy, fun, and hilarious! The whole world is Halloween inspired and every character super interesting/likable. Highly recommend this one!
I think the show aired in 2008, but it still holds up.
it is a good anime, but the manga's ending was 100 times better. well it wasn't that bad but could be much better
i would argue about it still holding up. imho it deserves the hunterxhunter/Shaman King treatment.
imho it deserves the Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood treatment.
the manga was great and i would love to see it all be animated.
"Soul Eater Resonance" or smth along those lines.
@@Gwydkid2003 well the courage punch was shit.. but the sealing is even shittier... I would've liked big fight. If they fight the same way in the anime but just win without this courage punch it would be perfect.
You mean all characters ...except, medusa and mosquito. Those are despicable.
This one's a cult classic. It's a fantastic example of how style can sometimes be substance. It still holds up well today even if it can feel a bit tropey, but something about the art style and iconography is just so distinct and so inspiring.
Though I kinda wish they'd give it the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood treatment and remake it with the proper storyline at some point, since the manga wasn't done when they got to the halfway point so the rest is made up by the animators.
Certified Hood Classic
I wasn't even aware there were 4 different openings. The 1st one is so good it's the only one that stuck in my memory.
Same here 😂
I thought there were only 2
i thought there are only two
for the anime there are only 2 used. so im not sure where the extra 2 came from.
The anime reaired in Japan after its initial release, so they used the last 2 ops
Ahh Soul Eater! Now I gotta go back and watch this again. This anime has a mix of dark and comedic themes. I recommend this one.
Yeah, it can whilplash you a bit between character based situational comedy, battles for the fate of the universe, goofy slapstick, sinister conspiracies and desperate struggles for survival, but it's battle animation is top notch and I was so disappointed that they cut it short after season 2.
Ooooh just off the openings alone it went straight on the list! 💯
@@GOTGames if you do watch this just remember ep4 is where the story starts. the first 3 introduce the characters and are funny as heck.
DING! DONG! DONG! DING!

@@TheGameleader5000 uugh he anoys me.
Soul eater was one of the first animes I watched and damn, I liked it so much.
The first opening will forever be stuck in my head.
The anime had such an unique vibe and characters.
i rewatched this last year, since i was in the mood. the series is mostly tame, with Blair (the cat lady) being the target of fan service when she shows up. the story is quite unique with its mix of action, comedy, and it's well placed introduction of horror elements. the basic gist given from the first episode is the main characters are students of an academy that train protectors of the peace. to which the Grim Reaper is the headmaster. it can generally be said that half the student body are capable of transforming into weapons, which are wielded by their partners. the goal of each student is to hunt down 99 souls of the corrupt, followed by a single witch's soul in order for their weapon partner to be powerful enough to be wielded by the Reaper
The way I screamed and closed my thesis work to see this video
Absolute same reaction, the thesis can wait xD
Good luck, friend! :)
@@TheLpfan2611 thank youuu 💛💛
Open the thesis 😂 my video will still be here after!
Also I hope you do amazing!!! ❤️
"Wait, what the fuck was that?" is a pretty good synopsis of the show. It's just a fun ride. It's generally pretty tame, but there are some moments of fanservice, which are the ecchi bits. Also, the OPs and EDs for GATE are pretty solid, and the OP for The Greatest Demon Lord is Reborn as a Typical Nobody goes way to hard.
"call of the nigh" (yofukashi no uta in japanese) is an anime with amazing op and ed done by the same band. Actually the writer was initially inspired by that band's song called "Call of the night" (which is why she named it like that) and asked them to do the music for the anime and use some of their songs. Obviously the song called call of the night is used as the ed and an original song called "daten" is the op. They are FIRE. They even have some great FIRST TAKE performances!
edit: forgot to mention the nname of the band is creepy nuts!
Oh damn! Okay! Can't wait to check them out!
@Tanya Shosa as a big fan if creepy nuts even before the anime, I was never really thst crazy about yofukashi no uta. I definitely like the op more.
Soul Eater is a good starter anime. It's more literally dark than it is story wise, but it is however, quite hilarious. Also, the "naked witch" is actually a cat with a lot of magic power that frequently transforms into a human.
There's an ironic delight in him calling Blair, of all people, a witch. Takes me back to the very first episode.
@@GlassedGamer I thought so too
Oooo okay! Hmm might just have to watch this one 💯
@@GOTGames you will love the fight between the cat and mice.
@@GOTGames bit of a good news bad news when you check it out. it's got an anime only ending because it came out in a time when anime often ended before the manga was even close to ending.
Soul Eater in art style is pretty much Disney characters with Tim Burton backgrounds, the whole thing starts as kind of a light hearted Halloweeny theme then gets darker in themes, although I would describe it's more serious elements as body horror, rather than gore/blood, it strays more to the former than the later.
The premise is kids go to witch hunter school, some people are the hunters, others have the power to turn into weapons for those hunters to use, when a hunter kills a target, the weapon eats the targets soul, thus the name, with the goal of each team of Meister (the hunter) and weapon(s) being to collect 99 evil human souls, and a witches soul so that the weapon can evolve and become a weapon for death to use against the main antagonist whom I won't name here.
The plot starts out as more of a villain of the week slice of life deal before the main antagonist becomes active and the real plot begins to come out.
As for the anime, honestly, I would read it rather than watch it, at best do both. What the anime does well is great, but it hit a hard wall a bit over halfway through when it caught up to the manga, and then devolved into mediocre filler with a non-cannon anime only ending, pretty much the same as the first full metal alchemist anime did, which is why it's one of the most wished for properties out there to get the treatment FMA did with brotherhood, because what happens in the manga after the anime went off in the wrong direction is amazing and really deserves to be properly animated.
But sadly, it never has been, and to my knowledge, there are no current plans either.
So a quick rundown for Soul Eater.
A Death God runs a school for demon / witch hunters. The students are split up as Meisters (Weapons welders) and Weapons (students who literally transform into weapons) and their goal is to hunt 99 demon souls and 1 witch souls to rank up.
You'd love Soul Eater bro, no doubt about it, it's such an underrated anime that needs to be watched by everyone, it's such a cult classic. Though it does diverge from the manga at around episode 36 I think? You should definitely read the manga after watching the anime
It's like a shounen that's halloween themed
there's demons and bloody action and psychological conflict
It's about a group of students that attend the Death Weapons & Meisters Academy (DWMA) in pairs(usually) of students who can turn into weapons and students who wield them. They hunt demons and let their weapon partner eat the demon soul to strengthen them. The main goal is to let them eat 99 demon souls and then 1 witch soul to evolve them into a "Death Scythe". The school is run by Death and any student who attains Death Scythe status can work as his partner. But there's a greater evil underneath it all, something the students weren't ready for.
Also, seasons consisting of 12/24 episodes is a pretty new concept for anime. Soul Eater aired in 2006 and had 51 episodes. No season breaks.
They dont fight demons the 99 souls they need to collect are human souls only the kishin and death-sama can be classified as demons but they also were human at one point
@@necrowolf1810 that's just incorrect
Honestly you should watch the endings as well, sometimes they feel like the actual openings.
Oh yeah?? Okay! 💯
I completely agree
@@GOTGames definitly must watch the endings, first one is one of my favorite anime endings of all times
@@GOTGames sometimes better than the openings.
@@GOTGames Endings is such bangers for SoulEater, yeah. I think i even prefer them more than ops
I will say only one thing ... I got goose bumps when I heard that first opening after so long ... You must definitively check it out
Soul Eater is a shonen action comedy so it never gets too dark, I love Soul Eater also adult shonen tends to have a tag "Seinen" it doesn't mean it's dark just means it's for an older audience.
So glad you reacted to the Soul Eater openings! I’d also say the endings are worth checking out, since they are equally as good as the openings.
Gosh it's been awhile since I've seen anything soul eater but it's a huge part of my childhood even tho it's not that old in the first place but still a gem nonetheless imo. I believe the target audience is definitely for young teens in the way it does "those things" if u know what I mean. It's tame all things considered tho and 100% a good watch for Halloween
It was hard to tell if it was Tame or not from these but definitely interested nonetheless 🤔
@@GOTGames definitely a great show you should react to especially since there is barely anyone doing reaction videos to this show😢
I think you would love Bungou Stray Dogs! It has a lot of dark humor, great characters, solid plot and the fourth season is going to air soon. I think the fact that one of the VAs (Voice Actor) is actually the lead singer in a band (Granrodeo) and sings two of the ops would really interest you.
I second this comment ^^ Bungou Stray Dogs is definitely a good choice
Stray Dogs is also great.The show is spectacular, and the little details about the 'authors' is fantastic.
Durarara! and Baccano! written by Ryohgo Narita would also probably be in his lane.
The first anime I ever watched, I loved it so much got me into anime. Op 1 is so nostalgic but op 2 is my favorite.
I love this guy's reactions! Soul eater opening 1 and ending 4 are my favorite! TM revolution is one of my favorite singers
Ahhhh, I'm so glad you liked Paper Moon!!!! Its my all time favorite anime op. You should absolutely check out the ending songs too!
You should react to the "Katekyo Hitman Reborn" Openings. It's a super underrated old Shonen anime
yes dude, but for me endings are even more banger.
Someone who actually mention this anime. It has so many good openings and endings but somehow people seem to have forgotten it's existence. I think it might be because they are difficult to find on TH-cam since they are heavily copyrighted.
@@Dracocetus yea sadly, LMC made me fall in love with Visual Key
I think Soul Eater is more underrated, honestly. I did enjoy Hitman Reborn tho, despite the "babies" really bothered me.
@@Jinrou_Yumeno The babies got a reason to be that way, you should read the manga !
Soul Eater is a definite recommend watch. Its like one of the top ten "new to anime" type shows that's just an easy to dive into.
Holds up to time very well.
Omg yay! Soul Eater is so good! Thank you for this 😘
The last 2 you saw are 'repeat show openings' so they don't really have the show concept. I personally love this anime (and I love how the final episode goes unlike many - I love the climax and ending and how the story gets resolved). I actually consider this my 'Halloween anime' - I re-watch it every year in October. You'd love it & it's perfect timing (to at least start it) - if you watch it, you NEED to watch Episodes 1-3 which are 'prologue episodes' that introduce our main characters. A bunch of stuff in later episodes won't properly make sense if you skip them.
Ah thank you for explaining! Much love 🔥
@@GOTGames the anime changed a lot of things from the manga and it didn't cover the whole manga. after a certain point it went on it's own way compared to the manga. if you want the story of the creastor of Soul Eater then you have to read the manga. i wouldn't recommend to watch the anime when it doesn't follow the actual story of the creator and it's not even complete and there's more but no season 2.
The Re:CREATORS Openings are amazing. Every song Sawano Hiroyuki touches turns to pure musical gold, like "Tot Musica" (sung by Ado, also one of the best musicians of our time) from the One Piece Film: RED
Made in Abyss is an astonishingly good anime, but as for the openings, OP1 in particular is a rare example where the vocals are sung "in character" for the leads of the show. So not the kind of music that you'll ever hear on the radio, but a fresh experience for you!
Oooo okay! Interested now!
This! The arrangements in made in abyss along with the stunning environments it’s an absolutely beautiful experience. Not to mention it being an incredibly dark anime.
Made in abyss is such a good show! If you react to the made in abyss openings you should definitely react to the osts as well, and in particular the Hanezeve Caradhina ost by kevin penkin.
@@GOTGames Made in Abyss is a good example for openings that show not in the slightest the tone/core of the show in the opening. The artstyle and openings are very devceiving - the show is actually very gruesome at some times and tacles very hardcore topics of humanity's (and nature's=the abyss) worst behaviours/essences.
Made in Abyss has 2 seasons(in total 21 episodes) so far and 3 movies which need to be seen in order to follow the story.
The show is very good but absolutely breathtaking at some points and you should be prepared to feel very raw and heavy emotions.
Don’t listen to them it’s a trap ….. run!!!! RUN!!!!!!
Soul Eater!! But such a shame you didn't check 4th Ending (Strength)! It's a heavier song and something I think you might like :) (imo the best song out of all openings and endings)
Also, now that you've watched Soul Eater, you totally have to check D.Gray-man, too!
a fellow man of culture
@@somacruz1912 a woman, but thank you *high-five* xD
@@Shouri91 my bad, high-five tho XD.
Definitely. If we are talking Tim Burton-esque anime, Soul Eater is absolutely the most, followed by D.Gray-man.
And both are among my most wanted anime to get a new season.
I mean, Soul Eater ended, but it did before the manga. So the ending was completely different and some of the BEST parts of the manga were left out. Dammit, I want to see Black Star's turning point and after animated. Kid too. Maka too! I can't even say what because it's spoilers, but it's awesome.
@@rafaelcalmon2858 I read manga to DGM (sadly it's plagued by countless hiatuses due to the author's health), but never tried Soul Eater - yet now you made me interested!
not seasons but there's specific episodes in most anime called "beach episodes" or "the hot springs episode" where the characters just chill and have fun
Black Paper Moon is my ringtone after all these years
dang, you have the spongebob squarepant anime opening as your ringtone, nice.
Vocalist is the talented Tomoko Kawase! She’s the vocalist for the band The Brilliant Green, and has solo work under her alter egos Tommy February6 and Tommy Heavenly6. This song is PAPERMOON under her Tommy Heavenly6 name
Soul Eater has very good openings, I really like the first one. However, it also has very good endings. You should react to them as well.
Made in Abyss is such a great show, would love to see you react to it!
I still haven't worked up the courage to start Season 3 after what the movie at the end of Season 2 did to me. The art in this anime is so pretty, and the character designs are so cute, but the story is like a cruel collab between Lovecraft and Harlan Ellison.
@@MrFelblood there's no season 3, season 2 came out this year....
Pain 😔
I am so so curious about it 💯💯
@@MrFelbloodYeah I read the manga and am too traumatized to watch the anime lol
Soul eater is a fantastic Halloween watch. It’s verrry burton-esque. It also takes place in a different worlds america! Probably cause the author really wanted to make a Death Valley joke but it’s an amazing time. Especially if you go read the manga afterwards, canon did diverge as many did back then.
Tommy Heavenly/February6 (Tomoko Kawase) was basically the Miku Kobato of the 90s early 00s. She had 3 musical projects, The Brilliant Green which was kinda Alt Rock, Tommy February6 was a synth-pop journey and a few years later Tommy Heavenly6 was her goth rock project. She was also a host on MTV, a model, TV personage, everything I expect Miku will become in the future haha
Reminding me that i need to finish this anime. Paper moon is so good
Soul Eater is a really good show! It was maybe my 5th anime I ever watched. I believe it’s rated M and it is a horror-parody/Halloween anime.
I’ll definitely recommend Noragami (2 Ops and Ed’s) and Bungou Stray Dogs (3 Ops and Ed’s). They are both really good shows and they have great ops.
On the topic of Made in Abyss, it is something you should definitely check out. It's a show that hides its true nature in it's marketing and opening, and slowly devolves into something very dark and unsettling. Right up your alley
So many years have passed but the first Soul Eater opening is still one of my favorites ever and I still love rewatching some moments, that make me laugh every time. This anime is sooo chaotic and hilarious (but it also has dark plot episodes, so it is one of the best anime)
And
1. Yes, moon and sun laughing all the time, it's just part of the unusual style of this anime
2. There is ecchi here, but not too much. And the cat-witch is constantly undressing and Soul always ends up with a fountain of blood from his nose. It's just one of those constant jokes.
It's been a while since I've watch Soul Eater, but it's definitely worth watching! I've always liked the manga's ending better (since the show deviates from the original story at some point half-way through) but the anime isn't bad at all. And don't worry, anything "ecchi" or lewd in it it's mostly used for comedy lol.
As for openings to watch next, I would recomend Gintama's openings since you seem to be working your way around reacting to animes with lots of openings. They are all consistently good, and some of them are even amazing. They are a ride to react to, to say the least.
The anime came out before the manga was even halfway done. So it deviated because it outpaced the manga. Instead of just ending on a cliff hanger until the manga continued, they just did their own thing and told their own story.
The idea of Soul Eater is that all the kids are either apprentices of the Grim Reaper or of the Repaer´s Scythe, and go hunting down souls that refuse to go to the afterlife...with the villains being either witches that refuse to die, or their allies. But yeah, in Death City, moon is always smiling.
Soul Eater is one of my absolute favorite animes, it has both a deep creepy story with some comedic relief. All the characters are so in depth that you can relate with at least one of them cause they're realistic emotions! This anime has a spot in my heart ❤️ please react to it, you'll love t ❤️ as an artist I appreciate the art style so much too!
I'd love to see follow ups to these where he sits with someone familiar with the show and gets to ask questions and throw his speculations and learn what he got right.
You should definitely check the openings of. "Katekyo Hitman Reborn" and "Eyeshield 21" both are GOAT.
Omg, yes KHR’s openings are SO good 😌🎶
Still can’t believe people aren’t suggesting this as an anime to watch 👏🏻 it’s fantastic x
You should check the show is a great mix of comedy and creepy, the best Halloween themed anime
This is definitely a great Halloween theme anime and it's hilarious!!!
I just discovered this channel and - solely - because of Soul Eater. It seems like your already interested and its such an awesome show! Well paced, great characters, dark and funny and serious and twists it's just amazing, one of very few I've ever taken the time to re watch and even fewer I've invested in getting the manga (that itself is it's own wild ride after a while because the story starts to get a little different, still AMAZING) 15/10 would recommend both or either
Yes, "Made in Abyss" is a really good anime to check out. I would also like to recomment "86" (yes, the anime title is just a number). And since you seem to like anime with a bit of insenity check out "Dorohedoro" OP. Good luck guessing what this show is about XD
edit: I just remembered. "Drifters" (definitly check this out at some point) and "ACCA"
Here I come answering questions once more in a completely spoiler-free way.
Basically, Soul Eater looks *really* messed up, but the anime itself is actually really funny. It was animated by studio bones which always will and has delivered amazing animation.
Secondly, for the anime genres. We have a lot, and by seeing your reactions you really like shounen (AOT or Soul Eater for example). To literally translate shounen, it would be 'young man'. So shounen animes are basically animes that include action, adventure, and fighting either monsters or other supernatural things.
You should definitely react to the Rising of the Shield Hero openings. There are only 3, all done by the same artist, MADKID, but they also did an English and a Japanese version of each the English versions were used for the English dubbed version of the anime.
souleater!!!!!!!! ahhhh timeless, you'd love it
I would recommend the ending for soul eater as well. I think #4 would be right up your ally.
Love papermoon song, Soul Eater was one of the first anime I watched in 2008 and the reason of the ''Evans'' in my nickname that is the last name of one of the main characters.
Soul Eater Repeat Show was just Japan re-airing Soul Eater episodes with new openings and endings.
The endings are so good too
The art style IS what made me watch this. I don't watch anime in general but this isn't your regular anime. It has everything from comedy, to drama to crazy fight scenes... honestly, it's awesome
Do the fire force ops next
I was just about to ask if he already reacted to the fire force openings considering both fire force & soul eater are created by the same person
Yesyesyes
Up
Up
@@dario2011 I still find it funny that Fire Force turned out to be a prequel.
One of my favorite anime of all time is Katekyo Hitman Reborn, is both hilarious and bizarre
Soul Eater was my first anime- it's been in my life longer than I've known BTS, Stray Kids, and TXT which is crazy. I definitely recommend it after you finish Attack on Titan! It's only 51 episodes on Netflix (correct me if I'm remembering wrong) and is really great for someone just getting into anime. It starts out more as you would expect (a bunch of kids that fight bad guys going to school) but then in the second half it REALLY takes a turn on the more serious/dark side. It has great humor and plot (it can get gory at parts during the fight scenes). The naked cat witch lady you kept seeing is really only like that in the first half of the show lol so if that type of fanservice content is stuff you don't really want to see she isn't in every episode. Overall in my opinion a very classic anime that has a lot of love that I believe you will really enjoy!
(P.S. can't wait to see you finish reacting to the Fairy Tail openings! Hope you end up doing Black Clover endings as well 💜)
It's not that crazy because those K-pop bands didn't even exist when Soul eater aired 😂
Soul Eater is weird in that it starts out pretty ecchi and gets tamer pretty quickly. The manga it was based on started out as a goofy three shot series with lots of Naruto-style barely-safe-for-publication nudity and Maka's acrobatic fighting style leading to lots of panty shots, with one episode about each of the hero/meister teams. Once the manga got picked up as an actual series those elements got dialed back a lot. When it got adapted to an anime, things got dialed back even further, with most of the panty-shots removed. (Though this leads to a weird situation where Maka's long coat often mimics the elaborate physics from the manga shot-for-shot, while her skirt violates physics in all sorts of ways to maintain censorship without changing the camera angle. It can be a little uncanny to see them next to each other even if you don't know the history.)
Maka's acrobatic scythe fighting techniques are so flashy and dynamic that many of them were incorporated into Ruby's fighting style for RWBY, especially in the first season.
You should listen to the D. Gray Man openings
Souleater is one of the ones. Totally worth watching.
You should react to fire force openings
Fun fact the person who created the soul eater manga also created the fire force force manga in other words both shows were created by the same person
Ughhhhhh soul eater is my favorite anime of ALL TIME its absolutely glorious so cool so awesome i ADORE the art style (it mimics the manga style SUPER closely its amazing, its really like seeing the manga come to life) i love the development every character goes through and i love the music so much its all the best
I'd love to see you react to Senki Zesshou Symphogear openings 🥺 it's a niche, underrated gem that a lot of people don't know about. The premise is really wild and it doesn't sound like a good time but even after putting it off for ages, when I finally started watching it I couldn't stop and now I'm obsessed 🤣 very musical show with a great soundtrack about magical girls in Mech suits fighting monsters!
seconding this the Symphogear songs are awesome!
I highly recommend watching soul eater. It’s just 51 episodes and meshes themes of childish hope and humor with dark psychological torment. Aired in 2008. You follow a demon hunter school where students who channel energy are paired with students who turn into weapons.
This might be an odd request but instead of anime opening, could you react to the Soul Eater AMV "This Is Halloween".
I don't often care for these types of things, but this AMV in particular is a CLASSIC, plus it's certainly about to be halloween soon, so I'd say no better time to react to it than now.
eyy thats one of the OGs lets go! The endings are good too!
You've got to start doing the openings and endings in your videos the amount of bangers you've missed it insane, all because you just do the intros.
Soul Eater was the first anime i ever watched fully i had seen naruto and dragonball on tv before but i never finished them if my friend didn’t introduce me to Soul Eater i probably wouldn’t have gotten into anime
Soul Eater has a special place in my memories as one of the first animes I've watched.
Though this is my first time finding out there were Japanese special openings
Edit: If memory serves right, if an anime has more mature themes it is called a seinen, whereas MHA would be a shounen anime due to being aimed at teenage guys. AOT would fall somewhere in the middle
Edit 2: I highly recommend checking out the Kekkai sensen openings, and the first terraformars opening (amazing break)
100% kekkai sensen /blood blockade Battlefront is my big recommend with op and ed, especially the ed it's so good! Plus as a show recommendation as a sci-fi action blend you don't see much in anime
Since we're on Halloween season and all, might as well check the opening of "Another"
Please react all 1-24 One Piece opening
🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️(attempt 8)
+1
One piece is great but the openings are kinda mid tbh
So glad he actually wrote down my suggestion
There's a ton of different categories for anime, many being sorted by which audience it's intended for. As example many actionpacked/adventure series like this, Fairy Tail, Naruto, Dragon Ball, One Piece etc. are usually sorted as "Shonen" anime, meant for a somewhat younger male audience (13-17ish old) even if all kinds of ppl can enjoy it. These may still display some blood during fighting and what not tho despite being meant for younger audience, anime isn't as censored as western cartoons.
"Shojo" anime is the opposite, usually more drama/romantic/magical girl driven series intended for younger female audiences.
HOWEVER regardless of genre there's this concept called "fanservice" in anime. As in series not in the ecchi/hentai categories may still have some scenes or events happening of a bit lewd nature to well, service the fans of the manga/anime. This is why many anime's have an episode where the characters either go to a beach or a hotspring, an opportunity to have the characters in less clothing.
The fanservice may also be intergrated in part of the comedy like "main characters falls onto a girl and accidentially feels her chest, followed by comedic pummeling of main character" or wind blowing up skirts to provide panty shots, main character gets sudden burst of classic, comedic nose bleed.
I started soul eater not that long ago and it is one of the animes that had me binging after not watching anything for almost 5 months
When I first saw the thumbnail, I was like „No waaaaaay!! I can't believe he actually did it” :))))))) It really made my day :))) I loved this video and seeing your reaction :))) I'm happy that you liked it. It was one of my favorite anime in my childhood. It's something that can make you laugh, cry and creeped out at the same time. :)) (I also agree that you should watch the endings too.)
And for the next anime to watch after Attack on Titan, my personal recommendation is: FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Soul Eater or Vinland Saga (cause you said you like vikings). ^_^
The anime definitely has more dark themes than most. Of course it has a lot of comedy but I highly recommend it for its story and animation alone. The in anime music and OST is also crazy unique and my favorite after Attack On Titan. Really hope you watch it!
Soul Eater is creepy yet light-hearted, it's actually a tradition of mine to rewatch the series each Halloween. About time for me to get started on that.
Similar anime with Halloween vibe and great OPs is D. Gray-Man. It has 5 total.
soul eater has some fan service but it was my first anime which i watched around the age of 9 i think and to me none of the fan service mattered. i just fell in love with the characters, the music, the animation and especially the story it all amazed me and thats how i fell in love with anime
From what I understand, aot is a seinen which means like adult. While others are shounens which mean like teenager. Also, I recommend the golden kamuy openings. They are really good and I think the anime itself is underrated
Those terms also refer specifically to anime with mostly male demographic. Shoujo and Josei I think are the female counterparts. Shoujo and Shounen for younger demographic. Josei and Seinen for more mature themes. At least that's how I've always understood it.
This is a super weird but awesome anime. 😄 Sometimes badass, sometimes goofy... and so much more! 6:50 - you really got it's vibes through the opening.
I've watched Soul Eater right through about 3 or 4 times, have the boxset... and I've never seen those repeat openings before. XD
The show is definitely a lot of fun, and the art style/atmosphere is a huge part of that. It's definitely a lot lighter in tone than Attack on Titan, but you may very well enjoy it. What I can say is that the first three episodes are individual stories that introduce the three main character pairs (well, two pairs and a trio) and just gives an introduction to the world itself; if you're interested in checking it out, I'd recommend just doing those three episodes and seeing what you think. Might make for a good three-in-one video for your 200k, or just for a Saturday show if you feel like it, without needing to commit to the entire anime right off the bat.
Yup, its the childish one but also dark, personally i love this mix, you had a point mentioning Burton, if you like his movies you would love Soul Eater too. Its one of a kind. I still dream about a remake because story goes worse in second half, but anyways its worth to check out ; )
I didn’t know there were two more openings. Learning something new everyday
Aaaahhh soul eater !!! This brings back so many memories! I loved this series but I was so mad they separated the story from the manga I'm not sure if it was cause the story got too dark for their liking or cause the anime caught up with the manga but I remember being mad cause they changed the part that made the story even deeper and darker but still a very great show with amazing characters and great music the character themes are quite nice as well!
Glad to see you react to it thank you
I love Soul Eater I watch it every October. It's my all-time favorite Halloween anime. I'm literally watching it right now.
I didn't even know those 3rd and 4th openings existed until I watched this. The first 2 are the original openings, and apparently the second 2 are from when the show re-aired in Japan. I've never seen an anime re-do openings before, very interesting.
"Should I watch 'Made In Abyss'?"
I don't know, do you like crying nonstop?
Not tearing up and sniffling... I mean hours and HOURS of bawling your eyes out!
Is that what you want?
I have a weird suggestion for you:
Mr. Osomatsu openings
A really underrated in America series. And a while ago you asked about opening visuals where you have no idea what's going on...? Well, this show immediately came to mind in absurd visuals and comedy. They're amazing. lol
Ah Soul Eater such a classic. I wish they finished it. I never read the manga but the anime left us on a cliff hanger. I still think you should watch it.
Nice. You should do the endings too. At least 1-4, I don’t know about the repeat show endings, but the originals are really cool. Favorites are 3 and 4.
I'm a little sad the endings weren't here because seeing people's faces after watching the op and then seeing the endings brings me such unbridled joy
Soul eater is definitely one of my earliest animes I remember seeing and it is very fun. I will probably be recommending others later on(I can't think of anything at the moment)but Eighty Six is a series I think you'll like!
Soul Eater was one of the first like REAL animes i watched and i highly recommend it, the last two openings i havn't seen but they sound pretty cool :>
Honestly soul eater hits so hard and it’s just a lost gem! I don’t think you’ll ever find anything quite like it! Everything about it is unique even the clichés themselves!! God I hope you watch this as soon as possible we need more fans out there!
Soul Eater is more or less 15 years old and the manga it’s adapted from wasn’t done when it was airing so the anime writers had to make up it’s own ending because seasonal breaks weren’t a thing yet for most anime.
Luke have you considered watching the first episode of any anime your interested because the openings aren’t always a good way to judge a show by. That’s especially clear with you when you think a season is laid back just because the opening doesn’t show much action when that is not what happens for the majority of the season.
