Soul Eater Vol 13

As Maka and a team of DWMA students slip into Baba Yaga Castle in the guise of Arachnophobian guards, Black*Star opts for his usual style of entrance: loud and without a trace of subtlety! But although Black*Star doesn't seem to have changed much on the outside, inwardly he has at last found the way to harness the true power of the Uncanny Sword. And that means he's ready to test his blade in a round three rematch against swordsman Mifune! Will Black*Star's transformation be enough? Or will he once again find himself at the mercy of the great samurai?!

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!

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?

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?!

Although Black Star doesn't seem to have changed on the outside, inwardly, he has at last found the way to harness the true power of the Uncanny Sword, and that means he is ready to test his blade in a round three rematch against swordsman Mifune. Original.

Like the other members of the newly formed Spartoi unit, Maka and Soul undergo rigorous training, probing the boundaries of Soul's hard-won new potential as a weapon. Maka's soul perception ability has made her the enemy's next target, and she and Soul will have to kick it up to a whole new level-and fast! Noah and his followers are coming, ready or not!!

In his madness, Death the Kid has embraced a new notion of "order": Only in nothingness can there be true balance and equilibrium. But for Black*Star, being on equal footing with anyone is not his style. Black*Star has always wanted to "transcend the gods"-now his only chance may be to overpower his shinigami friend and take Death down if he wants to save him...!

Kid enters the witches' realm to appeal for help! Though they have been DWMA's enemies for years, the witches share a respect for order--and are equally threatened by the Kishin. Kid's immediate goal is to deal with the situation on the moon, but he hopes that the negotiations will forge a new pact between DWMA and witches in the future--assuming anyone survives the Kishin's madness!
