For Soul Eater Evans, becoming a Death Scythe means collecting the souls of 99 evil beings and one witch. A Demon Weapon able to transform his body into a scythe, he relies on his straight-laced meister, Maka Albarn, to wield him. His fixation on being cool makes them a contrasting pair.
They study at Death City’s Death Weapon Meister Academy, also called Shibusen. Led by Lord Death, the school trains transforming human weapons to become Death Scythes for him to use against the world’s evils. Their fellow students include the hotheaded Black☆Star and his caring weapon partner, Tsubaki, along with Lord Death’s son, Death the Kid, who wields the twin pistols Patty and Liz. Between their studies and soul-collecting missions, the students work together to strengthen themselves and defend the city from threats.
