Summary’s up for
SE 76! I don’t know what to make of you chapter 76, but then that’s a pretty typical reaction of mine when it comes to this series?
This sums up my feelings on the chapter:
"…
…
Is that Giricco Ohkubo.
Did you just turn Giricco into a woman, and then give a totally random explanation as to why he’s suddenly a woman?
You did, didn’t you.
Okay.
Moar gender-bending it is then!"
Well, at least Maka’s back to normal, and Soul’s back in his pinstripe suit (yes please). Go OTP, GO!
"I’M SORRY BB."
"I FORGIVE YOOOOU <3."
Also. Giricco reminding Maka that BODIES DON’T EXPLODE cracked me up something fierce.
I’m all, "Wait, YES THEY DO. This is SOUL EATER. THE MANGA IN WHICH EVERYTHING EXPLODES?" I could give a plenty instances in the series when random enemies explode for no logical, science based reason. THIS IS SHOUNEN. LOGIC BE DAMNED.
I’m not terribly pleased that Black*Star is the only one that can fight Kid :/. Since the fight still hasn’t started yet, I have little to say about it though. The page where Black*Star falls by Kid, who's just blankly staring at nothing, is hilarious though? Kid, you look like such a doof, ahaha. But I love his expression in the last panel of the chapter. That’s more like it Kid :D! If you’re going to be eviiil and all, you gotta look the part.
All in all? Not much going on in this chapter besides Giricco’s sex-change development. Maka and Soul are now BOTH hurt, and the Black*Star vs. Kid fight has yet to start up.
Hopefully, Maka and Soul will finish up soon, and Black*Star gets around to knocking the snot out of Kid.
I’m still holding out hope that Kid will be saved by Patti pistol whipping him with Liz, though.
