This week on I drink and Watch Anime, we consider which is My Least Favorite Ending of Soul Eater. Man, that was a purposeful and clear intro. I feel itchy

Your Least Favorite Ending

As I mentioned last week, endings 1 and 2 were my favorite. You figured having whittled it down already these week would be a breeze but noooo… I don’t do easy. That’s a lie – I do nothing but easy.

I’m not going to lie to you guys. I watched endings 3 and 4 over and over twice each, and I really don’t have a favorite. They’re really very similar. Both are fun to watch if not exactly special, both have catchy songs and both have similar themes going on.

I believe BlackStar would actually graffiti that

I was really just going to flip a coin but in the end I decided to pick ED3 as my least favorite because ED4 has the Kishin and I think we don’t see enough of him. It’s one of the weaknesses of the series in my opinion. The Kishin is a great antagonist. An almost blindly destructive force, defined by fear of all things, with a great backstory that weaves into all the main characters’ lives, he could have been one of the all-time great villains. The premise allows for both flexibility and visceral impact and some of the added details in the manga make him even more relevant. Sadly, I found that the anime simply didn’t have time to properly use him (the manga left something to be desired too).

I guess this doesn’t really have that much to do with the endings.

Alright so how about you guys let me know which one you like best. Here’s 3:
