Soul Eater 62 reactions and rambles.

It took me a good two days to notice this, but zomg all of the weapon/technician teams totally have matching themes to all of their outfits! Soul and Maka get the tailored jackets, Black Star and Tsubaki have matching scarves, and the Troika are all wearing the same puffy jacket. And yes, I noticed that Ohkubo kept the all-important three-motif going with the three fasteners down the front of Kid's coat. But there appear to be no skulls anywhere on his outfit anymore. (And yes, I noticed the eyes on his guns. Still don't know what to make of that. But I noticed it.)

LOL @ MAKA THE WHITE

SHE'S LIKE GANDALF THE WHITE only her magical upgrade actually happened ON SCREEN and involved a distinct lack of Balrogs.

(Maka to Kid: "Look to my coming at first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the east!" Kid: "Five days my ass. It's been how many months now?")

Oh, Justin. Oh, Giriko. Oh, Clown. Oh, Ohkubo! The Clown's little "get a room, you two!" whistle at Giriko and Justin was by far my favorite part of the chapter.

GiriJasu canon smex? Oh yeah, the Clown is so totally going to be watching.

For some reason, whenever I see that pic of Noah posing with his posse, I'm reminded of the "Professional Pirate" song from Muppet Treasure Island...

Hmmm. Maybe next month's recaps will be another sing-along, then.

I mean, come on you guys. Just LOOK at Tim Curry's grin in the first thirty seconds of that sequence. Creepy to the max. On a scale of 1 to Noah, that is definitely a Noah grin.

Now I'm imagining all of Noah's lines being spoken in Tim Curry's voice. Oh, shivers. (And yes, I know that he already has a Japanese voice, since he was animated and voiced in the Wii game. But I don't care! Tim Curry's voice will now and forever be Noah's voice to me.)

OH HEY WAITAMINUTE here's a dangling plot thread that I forgot about:

NOAH STILL HAS THE BREW. Well, now. At least Daddy seems as equally unconcerned about the Brew as he does about his own son. Or maybe Daddy just forgot about the Brew already. Or maybe he already went "Oh, fucknuggets! Well, we're boned!" offscreen at some point.

Now let's all watch Noah repeatedly try to kill Maka without using the Brew, because, you know. Maybe Noah is actually really, really stupid.

Should we start a betting pool to see how long Cannon Fodder Bishounen Henchman Number One will last before Maka kills his ass? I'm predicting three, maybe four chapters at the very most. I'm assuming that he's not going to survive the story arc, since the general pattern so far has been that only goofy/silly henchmen survive to fight another day, whereas the serious/loyal villains (notably Mosquito and Mifune) get offed.
