The Soul Eater Scanspam that Ate the World, Part the First

Over 180 files, 250 megs, and one month in the making. Because I felt like it.

The Scanspam that Ate the World is going to be divided up into four posts. So here's the first part of the dump: Old school, old hat, but still very pretty illustration postcards and stickers.



THIS is the Soul Eater postcard-n-sticker book that Animedia released with little fanfare and *very* little in the way of advertisement last month. It's a collection of forty postcards and some stickers.

The postcards, unfortunately, are NOT printed on white cardstock. Rather, they're printed on sepia-toned, coarse, grainy paper. In real life, this actually makes them look really cool, like olde timey photographs. In scanning terms, however, this means that all of the postcards scan like crap. So, sorry about that, and here are the results, as you can see below.

These are nice if you want textless/creaseless versions of some of the magazine illustrations to date. But again, as the postcards themselves are a) physically much smaller than any magazine pages and b) printed on that grainy sepia-toned paper, these aren't going to be the highest-quality scans in the world. Just to let you know.



Next installment: New illustrations that y'all *haven't* seen before. I swear.

Thank you so much for scanning all of this! Must have killed you/your scanner/ a lot of your spare time.

So much SoulxMaka. Wow. And all the other character interactions are lovely.

I laughed when I saw Blair's (cat) butt. I guess that's the only time it would be worksafe lol.

Haha, awesome. A friend and I spotted this at Tsutaya and went halfsies on it, then eviscerated it all over the living room floor and rock-paper-scissored for who got a turn to pick first.

And now I have the other half, too! (In digital format, anyway.) ♥ for you.

Thank you so much for the pictures. The Hiro and Excalibur pic was the most awesome one. I love everybody's faces in the background.

I really liked every single one <3 and I'm still in love with Maka's earmuffs and that pose of K&L&P in the thirtieth picture

Thank you very much for your hard work!

That's Hiro. He was in a bonus story included in volume 09 of the manga. Also, he got his own episode (#32) in the anime.

Ahhh thank you ;w;
I was just considering buying this book, but now that I have the scans, I feel I don't have to. >A>;

Well...tell me, since you bough tit.
Is it worth it? o3o

Well, I bought it specifically to scan the postcards, so it was worth it for me. As for whether it'll be worth it for you, well... Only you can answer that question for yourself. ;) If you like to collect pretty post cards and/or pretty Soul Eater things, then probably yes!
