This has been the first manga I bought in my life. Back then, in 2013, I only could afford to buy one manga every month, so it took me a long time to finish it. But reading it was always very exciting and it was soooo hard waiting for the next chapter.

So, well. What is it about? Sorry for eventual mistakes, I haven't read or watched it's adaption in a long time.

It's about the life of Maka and Soul, who are students in the school of a Shinigami (Death God??). But this school is not an ordinary school, no.
Every student in it is either a weapon master or a weapon. So the students need to get a partner to get started and after they've found one, they start to train to slay these beings who've 'left' the human way of living. The souls of these creatures have turned into so-called Kishin-eggs. And a Kishin is basically a really strong and evil monster which just keeps killing humans in fear of dying.
But before they turn into A Kishin, they have to consume lots of human souls.
The objective of the school is to pretend a new Kishin from hatching.
After the weapon of one of the students ate 99 'dark' souls and 1 witch soul, they become way stronger and graduate from the school.
After collecting 99 souls, the two protagonists finally beat the cat-witch Blair,
which turns out to be just a cat and not a witch, so they have to start collecting souls from 0.

After that, they slowly begin to realize, that there's a Kishin really close to them...

The artstyle is really clean and there's some nice ecchi here and there.

Same goes for the characters. All really different and unique.

I loved this and I still do.
