[00:13] ---
    A sound "soul"
[00:16] ---
    dwells within a sound mind
[00:18] ---
    and a sound body.
[00:45] ---
    Evil Monk Rasputin, your soul is mine!
[00:50] ---
    No way!
[00:51] ---
    Not even bullets can harm this body!
[01:05] ---
    I don't know how many bullets you've taken,
[01:09] ---
    but I'm still going to devour your soul,
[01:11] ---
    which has turned into a Kishin egg.
[01:27] ---
    Aah... souls are so yummy...
[01:31] ---
    These days are cool. This
    morning is cool, too, of course.
[01:36] ---
    A morning fit for someone as cool as I am.
[01:39] ---
    Oh, Soul...
[01:42] ---
    It's about time you were getting up.
[01:45] ---
    B-Blair?!
[01:47] ---
    Unless, of course...
[01:52] ---
    All right, those are done.
[01:57] ---
    Want to stay here, and have fun with me?
[02:04] ---
    Soul, it's time to go to school.
    Hurry and eat your breakfast.
[02:10] ---
    Good morning, Maka.
[02:18] ---
    A morning like this...
[02:20] ---
    with romantic comedy like this...
[02:25] ---
    Soul...
[02:27] ---
    you idiot!!
[02:31] ---
    Is not at all cool.

    How many souls have you gotten?
[04:10] ---
    12. How about you?
[04:12] ---
    Hey, Maka...
[04:14] ---
    Be quiet.
[04:15] ---
    I'm reading a book right now.
    Leave me alone.
[04:17] ---
    What are you so angry
    about, you study hound?
[04:24] ---
    Maka...
[04:26] ---
    Chop!!
[04:32] ---
    So, what did you want to talk about?
[04:35] ---
    I heard something earlier.
[04:38] ---
    Our last teacher... what
    was his name again?
[04:42] ---
    You know, the one who croaked.
[04:44] ---
    Stabbed with a Statue of
    Liberty, right in the forehead.
[04:47] ---
    Sid*-sensei*, right? The
    Statue-to-the-forehead incident.
[04:51] ---
    So?
[04:53] ---
    Have you heard the talk
    about some strange bastard
[04:56] ---
    coming after the students of DWMA lately?
[04:58] ---
    Someone in the next class over
    supposedly got beaten to a pulp.
[05:02] ---
    Anyhow, everyone who's seen
    the guy all say the same thing.
[05:07] ---
    "The culprit was a zombie,
    with a hole in his forehead!"
[05:15] ---
    You didn't have to slug me.
[05:17] ---
    Are you saying it's Sid*-sensei*?
[05:20] ---
    No way. I'll bet it's just
    something someone made up.
[05:24] ---
    Hey, quiet down! Class is starting!
[05:28] ---
    That's the new teacher?
[05:31] ---
    Attendance is a pain, so I won't take it.
[05:34] ---
    I'll also say something right up front.
[05:37] ---
    The bell doesn't decide when class is over.
[05:41] ---
    I do.
[05:46] ---
    What do you think, Maka?
    I nailed it, didn't I?
[05:51] ---
    Hey,
[05:53] ---
    I get the feeling that your
    dumb dad is making a strange face,
[05:55] ---
    and looking this way.
[05:57] ---
    S-Sure it's not your imagination?
[06:00] ---
    Besides, he's not my papa.
[06:02] ---
    Hey, Death Scythe, are you
    going to be our teacher from now on?
[06:07] ---
    I'm just here temporarily,
[06:08] ---
    until we find a replacement
    for Sid, who croaked earlier.
[06:11] ---
    Also, it's "Death Scythe*-sensei*," right?
[06:15] ---
    Don't drop the "sensei" part, you dope!
[06:19] ---
    Now then, let's take attendance.
[06:21] ---
    You just said you weren't taking it!
[06:23] ---
    I said I wasn't taking it for
    the boys. I am taking it for the girls.
[06:28] ---
    Stop screwing around, you dirty old coot!
[06:29] ---
    Loser...
[06:31] ---
    Put a sock in it, already.
[06:33] ---
    Soul Eater... Soul Eater...
[06:36] ---
    "Soul"
[06:36] ---
    Oh, there he is.
[06:37] ---
    "Evaluation"
[06:38] ---
    Evaluation...
[06:39] ---
    lowest marks.
[06:42] ---
    Okay, let's get class started.
[06:45] ---
    Hey, you! You just wrote
    something down, didn't you?!
[06:47] ---
    Oh, right. Maka and Soul...
[06:50] ---
    What, you dirty old coot?
[06:52] ---
    Lord Death called for you.
    Never mind class, go see him.
[06:56] ---
    Shoo, shoo.
[06:58] ---
    Lord Death?
[07:04] ---
    "Engage the Witch Hunter!
    A Remedial Lesson in the Graveyard?"
[07:11] ---
    Excuse us.
[07:14] ---
    I wonder what Lord Death wants with us.
[07:17] ---
    Who knows?
[07:19] ---
    Soul and Maka...
[07:22] ---
    To think you'd turn your backs to me.
[07:24] ---
    Let's go, Tsubaki!
[07:26] ---
    Right.
[07:28] ---
    Rule of assassination number 1!
[07:30] ---
    Blend in with the
    darkness, hold your breath,
[07:33] ---
    and wait for a chance at your target!
[07:35] ---
    Ah, it's Black☆Star.
[07:37] ---
    What are you up there shouting for?
[07:43] ---
    They completely noticed us.
[07:45] ---
    My uncontrollable star-ness
    worked against me, did it?
[07:49] ---
    No matter.
[07:50] ---
    This is so much my era, it's scary.
    I'm too much, huh, Tsubaki?
[07:55] ---
    You sure are.
[07:56] ---
    He is?
[07:58] ---
    What's up? Were you guys
    called here by Lord Death, too?
[08:02] ---
    Yeah.
[08:04] ---
    Okay, I'll call him. 42-42-564...
[08:16] ---
    Hello, hello, Lord Death?
[08:18] ---
    Yes, yes, howdy, howdy,
    howdy. Thanks for coming.
[08:24] ---
    This is scythemeister Maka...
[08:25] ---
    Dark arms-meister Black☆Star...
[08:28] ---
    His partner, Tsubaki...
[08:30] ---
    So, what do you need?
[08:31] ---
    There's a little something
    I'd like you to take.
[08:35] ---
    What's that?
[08:36] ---
    A remedial class.
[08:38] ---
    Huh? A remedial class,
    like the kind that dummies take?
[08:42] ---
    No way. As someone who's
    going to be the ultimate Death Scythe,
[08:45] ---
    I'm not taking that.
[08:46] ---
    What is your duty as meisters and weapons?
[08:49] ---
    Sir, to recover 99 souls
    who have left the human path
[08:52] ---
    and become Kishin eggs,
    and one witch's soul,
[08:57] ---
    to make a Death Scythe,
    the weapon of Lord Death.
[09:01] ---
    That is correct.
[09:04] ---
    But currently, the number
    of souls you've all collected
[09:07] ---
    is zero, isn't it?
[09:14] ---
    This is no time to be laughing.
[09:16] ---
    Now then, as for the
    content of this remedial course,
[09:20] ---
    I'm sure you've already heard the rumors?
[09:22] ---
    About Sid*-sensei*, who was a
    teacher here at DWMA up until recently?
[09:26] ---
    There, you see? I was
    telling you the truth.
[09:30] ---
    Uh-huh. But he was such a great teacher.
[09:34] ---
    "Sid"
[09:34] ---
    Indeed, he was a nice,
    quiet teacher in life,
[09:38] ---
    but after becoming a zombie, and
    being freed from the fear of death,
[09:41] ---
    he said something about
    letting the students
[09:44] ---
    go through the same experience he had,
[09:46] ---
    so now he's holding a
    class for his own satisfaction,
[09:49] ---
    and staging bothersome
    attacks on our students.
[09:51] ---
    What's more, there's no doubt
    that whoever turned Sid*-sensei*
[09:55] ---
    into a zombie is pulling
    the strings behind the scenes.
[09:58] ---
    Okay! Let us handle it, sir!
[10:01] ---
    What you're saying is, we just
    have to come down on them, right?
[10:04] ---
    That's what I'm saying.
[10:06] ---
    Now, I'm not trying to scare you,
[10:08] ---
    but if you happen to fail
    this remedial class, or anything,
[10:11] ---
    There will be a friendly
    expulsion for all of you.
[10:13] ---
    E-E-Expulsion?!
[10:16] ---
    It's all right, I tell you!
    You just let me take care of this!
[10:32] ---
    Hey! Come on out, you zombie bastard!
[10:35] ---
    Say, Tsubaki, is this Sid's grave?
[10:38] ---
    Is he even in there? He
    was out moving around.
[10:43] ---
    Still, I think maybe we
    should start with his grave.
[10:48] ---
    I'm not about to get expelled!
[10:50] ---
    --It looks like just an ordinary grave.
[10:50] ---
    --Come on out! Come on out, you!
[10:53] ---
    I never listened in your class!
[10:57] ---
    Soul is off his rocker.
[11:00] ---
    I thought I was a superb
    scythemeister, like Mom.
[11:04] ---
    When did I fall behind?
[11:09] ---
    --Come on! Get out here!
    Get out here, I tell you!
[11:09] ---
    --What's she so down about?
[11:11] ---
    --Black☆Star, you should be
    concerned, too, okay?
[11:12] ---
    --You're a zombie! Don't go
    trying to look like a bigshot!
[11:16] ---
    Hurry up! Where are
    you, you zombie bastard?!
[11:18] ---
    Hey, Soul, let's take a
    leak on Sid's grave!
[11:22] ---
    Yeah, let's do that! And
    let's take a dump while we're at it!
[11:24] ---
    --Come on, you zombie! Get out here!
[11:25] ---
    --I wonder if I can get up.
[11:26] ---
    --Mm-hmm, I can. I can still go on.
[11:27] ---
    --We're gonna let you have it! Hurry up!
[11:29] ---
    --But I'm not getting up...
[11:31] ---
    --Somebody... stop them...!
[11:41] ---
    Maka!
[11:43] ---
    Are you scared?
[11:46] ---
    I'll bet you're scared!
[11:51] ---
    That's Sid*-sensei*?
[11:52] ---
    Looks that way.
[11:54] ---
    Maka, Soul, Black☆Star,
    Tsubaki, good morning,
[12:00] ---
    good day, good evening,
[12:05] ---
    long time no see...
[12:09] ---
    I never failed to say my greetings.
[12:11] ---
    That's the kind of man I was.
[12:14] ---
    Tsubaki, we're going at him, too.
[12:16] ---
    Right.
[12:21] ---
    It's started.
[12:23] ---
    Sid*-sensei*, why are you doing this?
[12:31] ---
    Being a zombie is great.
[12:33] ---
    You stop caring about all sorts of things.
[12:36] ---
    Let's start class.
    I start class right at the bell.
[12:41] ---
    That's the kind of man I was.
[12:43] ---
    Fine.
[12:44] ---
    It's been a while.
[12:46] ---
    Let me show you my
    fanatical classroom comportment!
[12:49] ---
    We've got an expulsion
    riding on this. We'll take this
[12:53] ---
    decaying, past-its-use-by-date
    class of yours.
[12:57] ---
    Once you become a zombie,
    the pressure of dying disappears.
[13:01] ---
    You can escape your fears.
[13:03] ---
    This isn't right.
[13:05] ---
    You weren't the sort of person
    who would say something like that.
[13:07] ---
    Learn, don't just listen!
[13:12] ---
    Black☆Star!
[13:13] ---
    You're little, and I'm big!
    No need to thank me.
[13:16] ---
    I'm not very patient!
[13:19] ---
    That's the kind of man I was!
[13:23] ---
    Give up now. One-star
    meisters can't defeat me.
[13:28] ---
    I don't care if you are a zombie,
    once I get your soul, you're through!
[13:31] ---
    Sid*-sensei* is strong.
[13:33] ---
    Unlike us one-star meisters,
    he was a three-star meister,
[13:37] ---
    the highest rank, when he was alive.
[13:40] ---
    Well, isn't that something?
[13:42] ---
    Hey, Teacher! You swing
    that tombstone around like that,
[13:45] ---
    you're gonna catch hell,
    and end up getting killed again.
[13:48] ---
    It's my tombstone.
    I can treat it however I want to.
[13:52] ---
    Now then, let's start second period.
[14:00] ---
    By the way, when this period
    is over, you are all going to die, too!
[14:07] ---
    We're not even that far into the new term.
[14:10] ---
    I'd like to go home right
    now, and have a bath.
[14:16] ---
    I'm so bored...
[14:23] ---
    Maybe I should go to school, too.
[14:27] ---
    Maka and Soul seem to enjoy it, after all.
[14:34] ---
    What's the matter?! You need
    to understand each other better!
[14:37] ---
    Your wavelengths as meister
    and weapon are all out of sync!
[14:40] ---
    You're lecturing the
    person you're fighting?!
[14:42] ---
    I'm an ardent teacher,
    passionate about education!
[14:46] ---
    That's the kind of man I was!
[14:48] ---
    I'll give you a grave for your life.
[14:51] ---
    Living End!
[14:58] ---
    Black☆Star!
[15:02] ---
    Sid*-sensei* was a knifemeister.
[15:04] ---
    He can fight this well, without
    even using a magic weapon?
[15:10] ---
    That's what it is to be
    a three-star meister?
[15:19] ---
    Class is over.
[15:22] ---
    Are you about ready to die?
[15:24] ---
    What do you say? You're
    afraid to die, right?
[15:28] ---
    Once you're a zombie,
    you'll be freed from that fear.
[15:32] ---
    Urgh, now I'm mad.
[15:35] ---
    Would you just shut up
    already, you zombie bastard?
[15:39] ---
    Your "class" never got
    started in the first place,
[15:43] ---
    you moldering dope!
[15:46] ---
    I'm on-stage here, you know!
[15:49] ---
    Three-stars, one-star, it's all the same!
[15:52] ---
    I am...
[15:54] ---
    Black☆Star!
[15:58] ---
    He hit one of my pressure
    points, my solar plexus, dead-on!
[16:02] ---
    Hmm, that was a nice attack.
[16:05] ---
    It's just like Black☆Star to
    excel at the assassination arts.
[16:08] ---
    Tsubaki, Dark Arm Mode, Shuriken!
[16:10] ---
    Right!
[16:15] ---
    You won't get away!
[16:16] ---
    This is nothing!
[16:18] ---
    Maka, here he comes!
[16:20] ---
    Living End!
[16:27] ---
    What?!
[16:29] ---
    She slipped into that tiny opening?
[16:33] ---
    It's because of their sense of
    fear that anyone tries to get stronger!
[16:37] ---
    Oh?
[16:43] ---
    Not sensing fear is
    usually a reckless thing,
[16:47] ---
    but Maka has the courage
    to fight with her fear.
[16:57] ---
    Maka...
[17:00] ---
    Let's do it. Match soul
    wavelengths with me.
[17:03] ---
    But we've never successfully
    done that before.
[17:07] ---
    We can do it. We'll be able to pull it off!
[17:11] ---
    Mm-hmm.
[17:18] ---
    Soul Resonance!
[17:34] ---
    Scythemeister technique of lore!
[17:39] ---
    Witch Hunter!
[17:59] ---
    What the hell are you doing?!
    Are you trying to kill me?!
[18:01] ---
    Hey, that was your fault,
    Soul! Do it right, you idiot!
[18:05] ---
    Huh? Give me a break!
    How was that my fault?!
[18:08] ---
    What are you, daft?! You're
    out of your mind, aren't you?! Die!
[18:11] ---
    --Die? How mean! You die!
[18:12] ---
    --What force...!
[18:13] ---
    --Shut up! Die in a fire!
[18:15] ---
    I wanted to go after him simple-like,
[18:18] ---
    without any big techniques!
[18:21] ---
    Huh? He disappeared?
[18:23] ---
    No, he sunk into the ground!
[18:25] ---
    He sunk?
[18:35] ---
    Damn! He sunk down again!
[18:39] ---
    Black☆Star...
[18:40] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[18:43] ---
    What Sid is doing is the
    first rule of assassination.
[18:47] ---
    "Blend in with the darkness,
    hold your breath,
[18:50] ---
    and wait for a chance at your target."
[18:55] ---
    Tsubaki,
[18:56] ---
    Let's go one step ahead of him.
[18:59] ---
    Right.
[19:05] ---
    Don't you get up on my stage,
    you moldering zombie!
[19:10] ---
    Black☆Star's breathing has changed.
[19:14] ---
    We don't need a second assassin here.
[19:17] ---
    I'm not in the limelight!
[19:20] ---
    Trap☆Star!
[19:26] ---
    Rule of assassination number 2...
[19:42] ---
    Concentrate... You'll hear
    the wavelength of his soul...
[19:48] ---
    It's coming through to
    you through Tsubaki...
[19:56] ---
    His breathing stopped.
[19:57] ---
    Here it comes.
[20:04] ---
    Trap☆Star activate!
[20:06] ---
    You should take some
    antiseptic after eating. You reek!
[20:15] ---
    Hey! Don't catch me, too!
[20:19] ---
    You also got in the way.
[20:22] ---
    Hmm, I guess that takes
    care of that, for the time being.
[20:27] ---
    All that's left now is the wirepuller
    who zombified Sid*-sensei*, right?
[20:31] ---
    Yes, yes.
[20:32] ---
    Who is it, Father?
[20:38] ---
    He's no small-timer, is he?
[20:40] ---
    Death Scythe is the greatest
    weapon around at the moment.
[20:44] ---
    You know which meister
    trained him up, don't you?
[20:48] ---
    Mm-hmm, Maka's mother, right?
[20:50] ---
    What about it?
[20:52] ---
    As it happens, Maka's mother
    was Death Scythe's second partner.
[20:59] ---
    Which means... by any
    chance, was it his first one?
[21:03] ---
    The wirepuller's name is
    Doctor Franken Stein.
[21:07] ---
    He was Death Scythe's first partner,
[21:10] ---
    and the greatest meister
    to ever graduate from DWMA.
[21:20] ---
    I just can't seem to clear my head.
[21:27] ---
    It's no use.
[21:30] ---
    I'm losing interest.
[21:44] ---
    Here, right?

    In the dead of the night,
    when even the plants are asleep...
[23:20] ---
    a cry echoes out in a
    patched-together laboratory.
[23:23] ---
    Fear. Shrieks. Splatter.
    What appeared before these
[23:26] ---
    boys and girls of tender
    years was Franken...
[23:29] ---
    Hold on, hold on! Tsubaki,
    create a little bit more mood.
[23:32] ---
    Oh, but I'm not really
    cut out for that sort of thing.
[23:34] ---
    That's not true. Just
    give it a try for now.
[23:36] ---
    I curse you...!
[23:38] ---
    That was good.

    Next time on Soul Eater, episode 5:
[23:41] ---
    "Shape of the Soul...
    Enter the Ultimate Meister Stein?"
[23:44] ---
    Your soul is mine!
