Soul Eater NOT -- ep 11

So it hits the fan this episode. Shaula has activated her army of mental slaves and is trying to destroy the school, one student at a time. Maka and Ox and some other guy from Soul Eater are out fighting for their lives. A group of slaves is trying to break into the dorm, and if they succeed then Kim and Jackie will have to fight them off. I hope they don't burn the place down.

Meanwhile, halfway to the airport, Anya and Tsugumi are reunited. They need to get back into town to try to rescue Meme, and Anya suggests that Tsugumi transform into a flying halberd. She retreats into her soul, and Anya joins her there.

Akane says that it's "soul resonance", a characteristic of a successful partnership.

And because of it, Anya can provide an image of what Tsugumi should become.

Tsugumi has trouble controlling it at the beginning, naturally enough, but she gets better. And then more stuff happens.

I figured Tsugumi was going to show up with a new ability, somehow. I didn't quite figure on this, though. It's pretty awesome. It makes me wonder whether she can manifest other features or abilities as well.

1 They seem to have built in a nice way to avoid the NOT students from fighting directly with the big bad. This makes a lot of sense, since witches are supposed to be pretty serious, and these two are beginner students.

What's your prediction on how the partner stalemate gets broken?

3 That makes sense. I wonder if ?

I'd bet you're right.

4 Ooh!
I wonder if the whole gets resolved, or instead is actually beneficial in the upcoming battle, considering who they will be fighting?

5 Would you recommend this series?

It's not terrible. It would probably work better for someone who had seen the other series first. I've enjoyed it, but I can't claim to be massively enthusiastic.

I guess the answer is that I wouldn't really recommend it, but equally I don't recommend against it.
