I don't think FF is related to Soul Eater. It's a fun theory and I liked it at first but it doesn't really hold up in the long run.
I originally thought they were unconnected. Until the chapter focusing on the past and we see what a cataclysm can do. We just saw how the last one turned our regular planet into their world. An the physical changes that came with it. The cataclysm could easily leave them with the SE world as the final project.

This mangaka is something else. I am straight up envious of their ability to create such fascinating and stand out characters. If I were to teach a class on characters and development, they would certainly be a reference point.

Of course. And I enjoyed it. But this one feels a bit different. I may need to reread Soul Eater, but the character work here feels a bit stronger.

I’m sorry, every passing chapter convinced me further this will end up some Soul Eater pre-verse, the references are out of control lol.

seriously, fan stuff aside, this has been brilliantly executed. That’s how you pay off hype!!!

The timeline just doesn't work. Soul Eaters history is like an alternative version to our world, where real places and real events exist and took place, just with Soul Eater characters placed into that world.

The best example is Excalibur. He's existed for at least 800 years and fought in old historical wars.

Soul Eater should be taking place sometime in the 1900s-2000s. Soul Eater also has all it's continents intact with all the original names.

In Fire Force, the cataclysm didn't cause history to change. It just changed the state of the world itself into a cartoon and gave people super powers. The timeline is post present times based on the Sumire flashback and most continents were wiped off the map.

This doesn't even account for the power systems being fundamentally different to each other.

That world really existed. An it would be nothin for the hope changing the cataclysm to fix the world. 200 years as a modern dark age isn’t that big a deal honestly. It’s nothing to explain those minor details away as it finishes. 🤷🏾

Caught up with the recent chapters.

Arthur vs. Dragon: Chef's Kiss

Tamaki vs. Assault Doppelgänger: Talk about a great payoff to the Lucky Lecher and that meta chapter, pure genius :lmao . Tamaki entered the convo for best girl and my boi Juggernaut with the score.

Beni vs. Beni: :-_- Really disappointed, as I was expecting explosive fireworks and been anticipating this since the fight with his master. Oh well, Beni is that DUDE.

On to Haumea hype, her eyes:

I completely forgot we had this discussion lol. Well, it became far too apparent that it was really happening when Excalibur started talking a few chapters ago. I was a FOOL! to doubt Ohkubo.

I continue to be doubtful of this.
