New chapter is out: http://www.mangafox.com/manga/soul_eater/v14/c067/

Loved the combination power-up where the 2 gloves became human and used Liz and Patty. The art was good in that part.

That part was awesome, but I'm excited about the Black Star vs. Crona fight. More Black Star is always good, and it seems Crona's gotten herself a bit of a powerup which should make it interesting.

Buzz buzz evaporating...

Black clown is basically Ragnarok++, it has all of his black blood abilities, plus more advanced "madness" stuff.

Black Star vs. Crona will be incredible, sine they have almost hyped it up since Fight to the Death, when they were supposed to fight.

We don't really know why yetbut since Medusa has taken her, I'm sure she must have used guilt psychology again on Chrona. And maybe more witch magic experimentation. I hope Black Star beats the poo poo out of her though.

My fear is that Black Star is due for a loss. He just beat Mifune, and he's been doing well. It seems like a loss is coming, and if he was the Main Character I'd have no doubts. Being technically secondary, though...Still, I want him to beat the poo poo out of her. Just utterly surprise sex her stupid in a show of overwhelming strength. I think of the three main characters, Black Star is the closest to having a fully grown and developed powerset and capabilities. Without being a non-human, anyway.

Well, I'm pretty confident seeing as how Death the Kid and Maka have each had a turn to smack the crap out of Crona. Black Star's due for a go.

I think he was using her fire blast more as a counter-force stabliser to the power of his shots.

I finally got around to reading the manga after watching the anime a while ago. So much better holy god.

I was so confused about why he was carrying guns and (whats essentially) boxing gloves until this happened. I expected Patti to be shooting Liz all cursing and crazy like.

Man, maybe it's cause it's been awhile since I read, but was Black Star always so... pretty? I'm so used to him bein all squat and spiky, but he looks so tall and shaggy-haired right now. Maybe its the new outfit or something.

I wish this manga updated more than once a month

If it was a time skip so they're all older now. They have slightly different and older looks now but I think that Black Star is the most changed one.

After seeing everything go to poo poo on the good guys' side, this chapter was pretty cathartic.

A great chapter. Not only did they tease Black Star's increased powers but they also teased again with Chrona's gender.

Haha, yeah. The progression of reactions from "Let's start the experiment." to "He's not even stepping back from this many attacks?!" to "I thought Chrona could at least survive this fight. Black Star overtaking gods, huh? It's not so laughable anymore." was probably my favorite individual thing from the chapter. But really, Black Star in general is the best thing about the manga and that hasn't changed a bit.

Anyone who defuses Medusa's smugness gets an A+ from me. And yeah, the progression was a riot.

Especially since it ended with CLOWN GUILLOTINE.

Justin has got to be my favorite character, he's so ridiculous in a way. Listening to rock and roll just blaring into his headphones yet he can still carry on normal conversation with people.

Yes, but clearly you are a Cowboy, not a Cowman and thus it is acceptable.

Also you are correct, disagreement is an offense punishable by Super Visored 3-class surprise sex and my avatar is more than happy to dish out such punishment.

Justin and Death the Kidd would still be my favourites above Black Star. Maybe Chrona and her weapon too. Black Star is a bit annoying for me, sorry to say. I'll have to reread this at some point soon since the monthly schedule means I forget lots of poo poo - maybe I'll like him more after doing that.

Maka is my fave -- there's just something about her that seems to have stayed consistent throughout. It's that she doesn't dick around. She has a very direct style, unusual for a shounen manga heroine, that I've always enjoyed. She always finds a way to punch or kick the enemy directly in the face-- I love that.
