Both Naruto and Shinra have been the outcast of society for different reasons, Naruto because of the tailed beast and Shinda because of his mother's unfortunate demise. The MC Shinra is particularly a Naruto-esque, type of character. Demon Slayer and Fire Force (and a few others) are stories that satiate that itch you may have after the end of Naruto and Bleach. I'm always so bummed when really good mangas just shit themselves like this.įrom the creator of Soul Eater, need I say more? Lots of the jokes and references in chapters 240 and beyond seem really forced and honestly kind of annoying. But also around the 200 mark, stuff just starts going off the rails. I love a lot of the characters too, and the art style perfectly matches the aesthetic of the world the mangaka has created. The world that the author has built is extremely interesting. Twin Star Exorcists also had a great premise and started off extremely interesting and entertaining, but repeated plot convenience, random events that stopped making sense, and repeated time-skips ruined it.įire Force is, unfortunately, one of those mangas. High-Rise Invasion had an incredible nearly 200 chapters, and then the rest of it was absolute junk. There are a lot of mangas with great premises and a lot of promise, but they end up taking a nosedive after a certain point. TL DR - Started off interesting but has largely lost a lot of its appeal. ***SPOILER*** People are dying left and right, Shinra and Sho are debating philosophy with Haumea, and out of nowhere, their mother, who turns out to be an infernal, just shows up, and Shinra fused together with her and Sho to become "Shinra Banshoman." And then Haumea has just transformed into her final form, "Crying Holy Girl." LMFAO this is such a dumpster fire ***END SPOILER***. I can't make heads or tails of what's happening anymore. IDK WTF is happening anymore.Īt this point, I think the mangaka has been told to hurry up and wrap things up. Though that example possibly speaks more to Ōkubo's style than any cross-universe connections.UPDATE - Have you all read the latest chapters? The story is off the rails.

Fire Force's Shinra - the series protagonist - also shares a similar, sharp-toothed smile to Soul Eater's Soul Evans.

Excalibur's Arthurian legend's influence appears in both series, with Company 8's own Arthur brandishing a plasma blade of the same name.


As a meister, Maka partners with Soul, who can transform into a weapon that she then wields.Īmong the various recognizable characters from Soul Eater, like Death the Kid and Black Star, two of them make a small appearance as masks in the first episode of Fire Force's second season - Death and Excalibur. The series mainly follows Maka Albarn and Soul Evans, a young meister and demon weapon duo enrolled at Death Weapon Meister Academy.

The Soul Eater manga initially began as three separate one-shots before becoming serialized in Square Enix's Monthly Shonen Ganganfrom 2004-13, with a 51-episode anime adaptation from the Japanese animation studio Bones airing between 2008-9. While this has led to some fans wondering if it's a hint that the two worlds could exist in the same universe, let's take a look at the iconic moon and what connections actually exist between Fire Force and Soul Eater. Though this ends the series second season on a curious and ominous note, it also poses some interesting questions for Fire Force Season 3 to address once it is announced.
