Soul Eater: The Weapon Collection(TV) (2008)
After 800 years, the witch Arachne has returned to spin a web of wickedness, leading an army of ghoulish minions in a war against Death Weapon Meister Academy. For more about Soul Eater: The Weapon Collection and the Soul Eater: The Weapon Collection Blu-ray release, see the Soul Eater: The Weapon Collection Blu-ray Review Soul Eater: The Weapon Collection Blu-ray, Video QualityMy comments on the first Soul Eater collection are equally true of this new set: Soul Eater's AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1 is from a native HD source, and the results are often staggering. This is simply one of the coolest looking animes out there right now and the Blu-ray presentation is top notch. Soul Eater manages to blend a more traditional anime style with a number of more innovative elements which make this series easily one of the most visually innovative in recent memory. What is a pleasant surprise about this second set of Soul Eater episodes is that the CGI elements are just a notch better in quality, especially with regard to the energy field and kind of tornadic activity that accompanies it. Several very cool elements congeal in thiese episodes which just give Soul Eater that much more visual energy and ingenuity. Colors are incredibly robust throughout this series, and line detail is phenomenal. The traditionally animated work looks great, and what separates this anime from the pack is the huge variety of styles employed, everything from really pretty standard looking character design to some really out there, kind of graphically oriented approaches, as in the many depictions of the sun and moon. This is certainly one of the most varied looking animes in recent memory, and the Blu-ray offers all of that variety in excellent clarity and sharpness. Soul Eater: The Weapon Collection Blu-ray, Audio QualityAs with the video section above, my comments about the audio options on the first Soul Eater collection are equally in force for this new release: Both lossless tracks on Soul Eater are excellent and the choice will probably boil down to whether you want to experience the original Japanese language track in a relatively narrow Dolby TrueHD 2.0 rendering, or opt for the at least slightly more expansive English dub in Dolby TrueHD 5.1. Voice work in both languages is great, and even those who don't like English dubs will probably find little to complain about here. This second outing has perhaps a bit more immersion in its surround mix than did the first set. This becomes more apparent in the later episodes, when we're dealing with the energy field, and several very nice sound effects dot the soundfield. These episodes also provide opportunity for some fulsome LFE, and fidelity and dynamic range are excellent as well. Soul Eater: Other Seasons
