Whenever people say that episode 51 is really stupid as accordance to Maka i have no idea what they are talking about. It's fantastic.

It is also a fantastic meta vehicle. Normally only Deathscythes fight like that, but it's not that the other weapons don't have the POSSIBILITY they just don't THINK LIKE THAT. What does that say about her, then?

@themadmaka And see, Soul is the Deathscythe with the most malleability and even he doesn't do it like that.

themadmaka Pat
@nomnombrainz Yes, exactly! Well, he showed possible traits in the book of Eibon but that was also, well... the book of Eibon.

@themadmaka No what he did there stuck, you can see it in 83/84. But those chapters + episode 51 are weapon transformation without fear.

That's the difference.

themadmaka Pat
@nomnombrainz But see what would they even have to be afraid of?

nomnombrainz Phones
@themadmaka A lot of things. It's hard to come to terms with "I can become something potentially deadly and not at all human".

There's little focus on that element but I really can't see how it WOULDN'T have an impact.

+ In the 1st place it's black blood aka insanity that makes Soul malleable. You have to look 4 it but he wasn't at all before.

themadmaka Pat
@nomnombrainz You know, I was aware that his pole gets v. bendy when Maka has insanity but I never connected the rest. That's interesting.

I feel like a bad fan because I simply assumed that was artistic and not at all actual details.

nomnombrainz Phones
@themadmaka You're not a bad fan. A lot of people assume that because neither Bones nor Okubo care if you interpret it wrong.

Or if they do there's certainly no sign of it.

@nomnombrainz @themadmaka I see it less a lack of care & more wishing to not limit any particular person's view of madness.

Because if you start to limit it then you are starting to give it barriers which starts to cross back to sanity.

Any rules I have seen people claim for SE insanity only floats for one particular character.
