I think author went for this type of relationship because one of the biggest part of the anime is based around relationships between weapons and their masters
For me, Maka and Soul is my golden standard for how a soulmates should be portrayed. Their relationship is like that very old married couples that you would ask “why are you two still together.” The two of them just share a very special bond and it’s definitely not just “friends”
the main reason im sad they arent dating is that they would be one of the best anime/manga couples ever. not a lot of couples have their kind of development and chemistry. but even withought romantic feelings, they are soulmates and a wonderful team
Soul is clearly Maka's favorite person in the entire world, and vice versa. Imagine dating someone who is THAT attached to her ""friend"". They even live together, like c'mon. They would die for each other, without second thoughts. Shiping them with anyone else is just weird. When the manga ended I was SO pissed, bc we never had any confirmation that they actually ended together. But tbh we don't need it, their connection is stronger than love, literal soul mates. Even if they never had any romantic interactions with one another, I'm pretty sure that they spent the rest of their lives together, and with no one in between.
End of manga be like: *that's cute* Spoilers, It's hinted at the end when soul is deemed the "final death scythe" that maka feels like he'll be going far away soon ; - ; which is true since deathscythes are stationed all around the world
I remember thinking how bad ass SOUL was to just forgive Chrona for nearly cleaving him in half for Maka's sake. Also it would have been great if Crona tried to apologize for it.
I think it might have been one of those moments that Soul knew that they weren't themselves at that time and in reality they wouldn't dare hurt maka apology is nice song knew what was going on
Maka: “Why do men always cheat on women?!” Soul: “Heh… how am I supposed to know… after all, men should always stay loyal to their partner.” *As things should be… but in both ways.*
I like the manga a lot better. Don't get me wrong, the anime was going in an interesting direction, but not as good as the manga. Especially from Crona's side.
I LITERALLY CAN KINDA HEAR TOHRY IN THIS LITERALLY AND I HEAR NATSU AS SOUL. But Laura did an awesome job having a diff voice and making maka her own character not just tohru!
You know back when I first heard about the show and the dynamic they had, I was kind of mad that they didn’t ended up together. But after a decade, I kind of realize not every good relationship needs to end in a romantic relationship. They are soulmates in the platonic way. and I’m glad it stays that way.
The shows creators be like “no they’re not together romantically” Did…did you guys just ‘accidentally’ write two characters that clearly love each other deeply and just pretend like it ain’t that?? Because I don’t know who looks at their relationship and thinks “just friends” lmao
@@ephemeral1052 A lot of times I think the writers just don’t know how to write romance. In the case of shounen/action anime it’s either they don’t really try because of the whole stigma about boys not liking romance stuff, and they can’t write it in a good way and they’re afraid it’ll change too much about the characters or put less focus on them as individuals. But there are ways to write romance without completely taking away a characters individuality. You just need to separate them sometimes and show that they both have their own separate aspirations, hobbies, opinions, etc. A lot of times when they do write romance they end up making either both or one of the characters entire existence revolve around their partner, which sucks lol And I do like romance anime, but I never ship anything in them because what’s the point if it’s already canon. Most of my ships came from shounen because they’re not canon, but there is potential and the characters are always more fleshed out.
@@MrsDragonChefI also feel like writers want to leave this “mystery feeling” after the show ends and make viewers wonder by not bringing these ‘couples’ together. This way people are still involved with the characters and series and it promotes the anime further. But that’s true in many cases they don’t have the ability to write romance properly or they start well but later something goes not the way they expected. I love shounen romance much better than shoujo ones.
Maka: "What reason do men have for cheating??" Soul Evans: "How could I know that?" *SUMMONS BLADE* "...cool guys don't cheat on their partners, do they?"
I remember dying for them to become a couple, but nowadays I'm just happy to see them together. 🤣 It doesn't bug me that people ship them, though. I think it's cute myself, plus it makes them happy.
Both Manga and anime: we can neither confirm nor deny they're a thing Maka and soul: *Literally the definition of a married couple that would die for each other* Me and the fandom: Coincidence? I think *NOT!!*
Man what an amazing anime and just as amazing English cast. Man what I’d give for bones to make another soul eater. Only thing I’d hate is that spirit won’t be voice by Vic anymore. Sucks what happened with him and funimation.
They are in love, but in the most non-serious but serious way possible, they were basically already already dating smh. They r soulmates don’t tell me otherwise🥺💗🫶😭
Nah I'm happy they aren't dating, always a weird pattern that if a guy and a girl are very good friends then they HAVE to be dating. Why not just platonic dudes and dudettes?
Why did Maka get that level of upset that Soul didn't tell her about his nightmare but told Medusa (his doctor)? It falls under medical so ya he told a doctor not her, even if they were married it's not something she is entitled to know. I get that she was all oh didn't tell me, but reacting like he put his arm around her or went on a coffee date is ridiculous.
0:04 not the best dubbing in terms of lipsyncing, but they get better. Buy the way, after checking, neither the japanese version was great at lipsyncing that moment.
Tbh their relationship is way beyond “couple”. They literally are soul mates, I am fine with them not dating, its a different type of bond.
I think author went for this type of relationship because one of the biggest part of the anime is based around relationships between weapons and their masters

@@thetshadow999animates9 holy shit your right
Ya that's one of the reasons I love their relationship. You feel satisfied that it's not so serious and is at the same time.
"If we die, we die cool" I love that quote :)
“Cool men don’t cheat on their partners”
idc what anyone says they are dating,, they’re literally soul mates 😅
period
YES PERIOD
Fr I still can’t comprehend people that don’t ship them exist
👩🏾🦯🤣
I see what you did there m8

Spoilers,
It's hinted at the end when soul is deemed the "final death scythe" that maka feels like he'll be going far away soon ; - ; which is true since deathscythes are stationed all around the world
I mean there is that one part where he stated he doesn't see her any more than a friend and the manga
We don't really need a confirmation in the ending, they've been together from the start

Maka is just freaking adorable.
She's both cute and cool.
Maka's the perfect example of a great female protagonist
The Show Creators: Maka and Soul are not together.
The Fandom: *I have never heard such bullsh-t.*
“If we die, we die cool” - Soul Evans that’s my favorite quote😭
Maka: “Why do men always cheat on women?!”
Soul: “Heh… how am I supposed to know… after all, men should always stay loyal to their partner.”
*As things should be… but in both ways.*
he said 'partner'. that could be interpreted in many a-ways.😏
“After all, cool men don’t cheat on their partners-“ ok, maybe cool people rewatch Soul Eater
I like the manga a lot better. Don't get me wrong, the anime was going in an interesting direction, but not as good as the manga. Especially from Crona's side.
They're literally one kiss away from being a couple.
I love how soul forgives crona for makas sake and even helps them. He’s perfect for Maka
There so cute together omg

"Cool men don't cheat on their partners."
Men need to follow Soul's example on how to be cool
Remember kids die cool not dumb
my life moto HAHSHA
OH MY GOSH! They’re totally Soulmates! So cute! Also not everything needs to be romantic in order to be special, these two are proof of that. ^^
I LITERALLY CAN KINDA HEAR TOHRY IN THIS LITERALLY AND I HEAR NATSU AS SOUL. But Laura did an awesome job having a diff voice and making maka her own character not just tohru!
Bruh I didn’t know they were the same voice until I watched this show and I was like they sound a like
Natsu's VA voiced Kid though, not Soul.
Years later I'm still frustrated they didn't end up together. They have obvious feelings lol
Read the manga and you’ll be surprised

i watched it 6 times already this will be the 7th LMAO
I love them so much💗💗💗
Every time soul says Maka’s name it sounds like Baka 😂
"cool men dont cheat on their partners"

They’re partners

Soul is such a good character
Parents : don't put your fingers in your mouth
Soul :
I like to think they end up falling in love and confessing their love to each other in the most random way ever and end up getting married n shit
One of the most underrated animes ever created. Honestly my #1
I feel like Maka would be a good fit in demon slayer with her unique attack
0:36 the best moment
Maka: "What reason do men have for cheating??"

Everyone else: don’t care, didn’t ask
why souls teeth so sharp. T_T
Good question
Because that's just an anime feature art.
Many characters have sharp teeth like Kirishima from my hero academia and Grell from black butler.
@@cloudy4621 well explained
I personally love his teeth
@@cloudy4621 so manly
They’re in love, your honor.
We already know they are dating 😒
That outro music is always a banger
Still one of, if not THE COOLEST show out there! 😌
I still miss it.. ❤
I love that quote
Both Manga and anime: we can neither confirm nor deny they're a thing
Maka and soul: *Literally the definition of a married couple that would die for each other*
Me and the fandom: Coincidence? I think *NOT!!*
That guy with the black and white hair sounds like Akutagawa and soul sounds and looks like Suigetsu
I like how black star was trying to tell if he was ok 🤣 and maka got mad
Sometimes I think soul should have been voiced by Clifford chapin aka, katsuki bakugo.
THEY ARE NOT A COUPLE!!!!!! -the writers
2:14 that didn’t age well
The voice actress that does Maka also did bloodrayne
Man what an amazing anime and just as amazing English cast.
Man what I’d give for bones to make another soul eater. Only thing I’d hate is that spirit won’t be voice by Vic anymore. Sucks what happened with him and funimation.
if only the anime followed the manga i would be so happy bru
SouMa is one of my favorite ships ever
I know that Soul is another person but...why his voice actor looks like Johnny Yong bosch too? O_O
But...I like it
I just realized that Soul has the same dub voice as Yuno from Black Clover
i like spiky teeth
makamoments makamoments makamoments
1:31 look at the poster, i just now noticed it, is this a jojo reference? ☠☠☠☠
whoaaaaa
Just wait for Chrona to come along and mess it all up

They are in love, but in the most non-serious but serious way possible, they were basically already already dating smh. They r soulmates don’t tell me otherwise🥺💗🫶😭
If we couldnt get Shinra x Tamaki. This one should have more chances.
I ship them - Saka
Nah I'm happy they aren't dating, always a weird pattern that if a guy and a girl are very good friends then they HAVE to be dating. Why not just platonic dudes and dudettes?
whether u ship them or not they are soulmates anyway, let ppl habe wtv opinion on them they want
May Allah bless you all 💎

uh oh
I see tamaki kiss shinra
2:39 what episode?
Am I the only one that thinks Souls voice sounds a bit too deep for his age
In the sub too
He had a deep voice in the Japanese dub too, but the seiyuu was actually still in high school back then. The youngest main cast member I believe.
What? I think it's perfect. Both dub and sub nailed their performance.
Yeah he’s like 13
I forgot I watched this anime
Same comments like this remind me
I assume pun intended?
2:38
In the manga do they end up together?
Sadly no
no they just have feelings for each other in it I'm pretty sure

I don’t ship them , they’re platonic soulmates for me , idk why everyone ship them they haven’t any romantic moment
Maka and Soul are my top 5 favorite ships in Soul eater NOT! :D
Dub in all animes suck
Saiki K:
except for black lagoon
This dub rocks, WHAT?
Soul Eater dub is good though. And it actually make sense this time considering they're supposed to be in America
Mob cycle dub hits hard
