Kid has been freed from Noah's greedy clutches, but The Book of Eibon remains at large. Noah was a troublesome foe, but the vast knowledge contained within the book could itself be dangerous - and information is not all that lies in its pages... Meanwhile, Crona has resurfaced in Moscow, his madness and Medusa's maternal pressure having all but consumed the friend Maka once knew. The question is how many will be devoured by Crona's madness before he can be stopped?!

Maka is a weapon meister, determined to turn her partner, a living scythe named Soul Eater, into a powerful death scythe - the ultimate weapon of Death himself! Charged with the task of collecting and devouring the tainted souls of ninety-nine humans and one witch, Maka and her fellow meisters strive to master their weapons as they face off against the bizarre and dangerous minions of the underworld. But the meisters' own personal quirks may prove a bigger obstacle than any sultry enchantress!

Kid's sense of order stands in sharp contrast to the unpredictable madness of the Kishin. But order and madness are two sides of the same coin. When Asura challenges the "tyrannical" Shinigami and his laws that serve to control humans' lives, Kid can feel the tendrils of madness within himself seeking purchase. The bonds of his friendships and his faith in order are tested to their limits as Asura makes his final stand against the forces of DWMA. When the moondust settles, who will emerge as lord of this world--Shinigami or Kishin?

Shinra, Arthur, and Tamaki have returned to Asakusa to get another massive power up from training with Captain Shinmon. While Tamaki must win a game against the foul-mouthed twins, Hikage and Hinata, Shinra and Arthur are pushed past the limits of their limits. Can they get the improved strength they seek, or will they die trying?

Deep in the belly of Baba Yaga Castle, Maka, Soul, and Medusa prepare to face Arachne in her own chambers. Arachne has grown even stronger since their last meeting, and even the crafty Medusa is caught in her sister's twisted web. As Arachne's intense madness threatens everyone in and around the castle, Soul must perform a string concerto that will move his audience to their very souls...or be caught in the witch's net himself!

On the night of DWMA's anniversary celebration, every meister and weapon in Death City has gathered at the school for an evening of music and dancing. Little do they know that the witch Medusa is about the crash Shinigami-sama's party. Trapping the meisters inside, the witch makes her way to the chamber where the First Kishin is imprisoned. Will the few meisters who've managed to escape be enough to prevent Medusa from rousing the madness that slumbers far below in the Kishin's domain?

When "BREW" activates in the middle of his battle with Mosquito, Death the Kid's soul wavelength is amplified to a whole new level! But once Mosquito has recovered from the shock of seeing the real "BREW" in action, he redoubles his efforts to destroy the young shinigami before the intruders from DWMA unlock the way to the Spider Queen Room. Will Kid's awakened power be enough to defeat Mosquito's deadly form?!

Arachnophobia has taken the offensive and spreads the Kishin's madness throughout the world, using "BREW" to threaten anyone who stands in their way. In the wake of attacks at home and abroad, DWMA sends its top students to quell the madness and gather information wherever they can. But the madness is spreading much quicker and is stronger than they had anticipated. When confronted by an incarnation of the Kishin's madness itself, will Maka and Soul fall victim to the sinister Clown's manipulations?

Tsubaki and Black*Star set off on their most difficult mission yet: a battle with the Uncanny Sword Masamune, a soul on the brink of becoming a Kishin. But this fight holds personal significance for Tsubaki - their target is her older brother. Jealous of her inherited talents, Masamune is holding nothing back. Usually docile and complacent, Tsubaki must find the strength to overtake the Uncanny Sword before she too is sucked into the darkness.
