* {{Expy}}. ''Freaking {{Naruto}}''. The similar personality, back story, power up-grades etc. (just see down the list of tropes) can be a bit of a BaseBreaker in some circles. It's also been suggested that Black☆Star is meant to be an exaggerated deconstruction of the whole Naruto-personality-thing, but if you compare Black☆Star with the [[CharacterDevelopment current Naruto]], you'd probably cock your head to the side.

* PantyShot: Source for this in the manga. Not a very ''reliable'' source, mind you - the fan service in general gets toned down as the series progresses, and Maka was never exactly MissFanservice to begin with. The anime averts this, however, instead using the MagicSkirt trope.

!!Maka Albarn
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/30818.jpg

-->Voiced by: ChiakiOmigawa (JP), JunkoTakeuchi (JP - CD dramas), LauraBailey (EN)

BadassBookworm heroine and meister to Soul. Her goal is to obtain the 100 souls required to turn Soul into a Death Scythe. [[spoiler:She succeeds.]]
-----
* ActionGirl
* [[spoiler:AllMenArePerverts]]: [[spoiler:Out of all the {{genderswap}}ped girls, Maka's the only one to get a nosebleed. [[NotSoAboveItAll Coincidence]]]]?
** [[spoiler:Made even better by [[AttractiveBentGender Soul]] lampshading it]].
* AlmightyJanitor: [[spoiler:Not anymore, since Soul is a Death Scythe now]].
* AwesomeByAnalysis: by chapter 76 she and Soul pull a CMOA via this trope.
* [[spoiler:AxCrazy]]: [[spoiler:Under the effect of the black blood when fighting Crona]].
* BackToBackBadasses: With Black Star.
* BadassAdorable
* BadassBookworm: Soul is her weapon of choice. Her second favorite weapon? A nice, hard [[ThrowTheBookAtThem book]].
* BadassInDistress: What Maka went through [[spoiler: in the Envy and Sloth chapters]]. She seems to be back to action now that [[spoiler: she's determined to save Crona even when everyone thinks s/he's hopeless now]], though [[RealWomenNeverWearDresses it didn't stop some people]] from crying "{{Chickification}}".
* BadassLongcoat
* BattleBallgown[=/=]KickingAssInAllHerFinery: [[spoiler:The BlackBlood dress armor]].
* BerserkButton: In the anime, after she befriends Crona, hurting Crona is her berserk button. An example, [[spoiler:during the final fight with Medusa in the anime, Crona gets badly injured trying to protect Maka. Maka then unleashed a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on Medusa. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrgVSogcqpo See it here]]]].
** More specifically, ''Medusa'' sets off a BerserkButton in Maka for what she did to Crona. Maka also finds Medusa extremely frustrating to deal with, especially since Maka seems to want to find the best in everyone.
** Soul getting hurt is also one, especially if she's the reason he gets hurt, although to a lesser degree. The most obvious is their in their initial fight with Crona. The next time they meet, she beats the ''shit'' outta the kid, before [[DefeatMeansFriendship befriending]] [[AmbiguousGender him/her]] of course.
* ButNotTooForeign: Is half-Japanese
* CatchPhrase: "I'll take your soul." Or something similar.
** "'''Maka...CHOP!'''" Mostly anime.
* ChildhoodFriends: With Black*Star
* CooldownHug: With Crona.
* CountryMatters: In the Hungarian dub.
* CryCute: Well, Maka is usually a tough girl, but...[[http://www.mangareader.net/157-51436-11/soul-eater/chapter-74.html just look]]. Might count as {{moe}}, too.
* CuteBruiser
* DangerouslyShortSkirt
* DemonSlaying: One of the few characters gifted with the sought-after anti-demon wavelength. As a result, she's extremely sensitive to anything "demonic" and extremely effective at killing anything "demonic".
* {{Determinator}} PluckyGirl: Eventually. When she ''does'' become it though, the only thing that can stop her is unconsciousness or death. Really. This is more focused on in the manga [[spoiler:particularly when fighting against the mad clown and destroying Arachne]], where her absolute grim determination tops everything else (in the anime they changed it to "courage").
** The manga has Arachne stating that courage cannot win every battle. Considering Maka's current dilemma [[spoiler:in the Book of Eibon]], it looks like she had a point; ''bravery'' isn't the problem here.
** Nope, by chapter 75, she fixes it with determination/courage.
*** Actually deconstructed, because she finds it by accepting that she needs to work with Soul in order to win, overcoming the influences of the Book. It wasn't purely about standing up to the bad guy.
* DoesNotLikeMen: Due to her issues with her father.
** It's not quite extended to men in general. Only the ones who act inappropriately get Maka-Chopped or otherwise punished. Some, like Stein, Kid, Soul to [[VitriolicBestBuds an extent]] Maka has little problem with.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: At least to some, Maka's [[EverythingsBetterWithSpinning scythe-spinning]] is reminiscent of color guard flag-spinning.
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning
* ExpressiveHair: In the anime her pigtails stand up and/or wiggle when she's agitated.
* {{Fanservice}}: While Maka was mainly an aversion of this starting from the first chapter, recent color pages have been showing her...um...[[IncrediblyLamePun development]]. Especially with the color page of Square Enix for Chapter 77, where her outfit looks quite similar to ''[[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Yoko's]]''.
** Or maybe BlackRockShooter
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric.
* [[spoiler:GenderBender]]: [[spoiler:Along with the rest of the Spartoi]]
* GenerationXerox: Somewhat, with her mother.
* GirlishPigtails
* [[spoiler:GreenEyedMonster]]: [[spoiler:The Envy Chapter forces Maka to acknowledge her envy of the other meisters who want to be Soul's partner, people like Liz who can appreciate music with Soul, and music itself]].
* GreenEyes
* HalfHumanHybrid: Her mother is a human while her father is a weapon. Slightly averted in that she doesn't seem to be any different to other humans. (Well to be fair, in ''SoulEater'' the "weapons" are just people with the special power to transform. They're still human.)
** [[spoiler:In the anime, she can unlock a weapon form while she's asleep]].
* {{Hammerspace}}: Where ''does'' that book come from?
* {{The Hero}}ine
* [[spoiler:HeroicSelfDeprecation]]: [[spoiler:Maka has a ''lot'' of secret insecurities about her strength as a meister. Something of a Tear Jerker in how it came about, illustrated by her seeming inability to pull of one of her signature moves, and coming after a period of Maka having gained much greater confidence and increased ability in the areas which troubled her earlier on; see how she handles both Arachne and Gopher]].
* {{Improbable Weapon User}}: Might not be as outlandish as other characters' cases [[spoiler:(e.g. Kim fights with something identified as a ''lamp'' and Kilik with twin ''pots'')]], but if you consider that a scythe is a legitimate agricultural hand tool, this could be applicable.
* [[spoiler:{{Joshikousei}}]]: [[spoiler:In the manga, after becoming part of Spartoi]].
* LamarckWasRight: She gains the ability of Demon Hunter, which was created by her mother.
** This is the case, as with the demonslayer wavelength, only in the anime. The manga doesn't (...or has yet to) make this connection between Maka's rare skills and her mother.
** Also in the anime [[spoiler: her weapon form]]
* LetsGetDangerous: Does this a lot after becoming part of Spartoi. Particularly when she learns to fly. At first she creates these [[PreciousPuppies cute fluffy wings]] that she's determined to keep (Soul, naturally, hates them)... and then the bad guys show up. The cute fluffy wings change into something else rather quickly.
* MagicSkirt: In the anime.
* {{Odango}}: Temporarily donned this while studying for the exams

The only ones aware of her determination (Soul, Black Star, and Tsubaki) respect her decision to fight alone, but make themselves available in case things go south.]]
* OpenTheIris: Averted with her normally invisible pupils becoming visible when emotionally shocked.
* PantyShot: Source for this in the manga. Not a very ''reliable'' source, mind you - the fan service in general gets toned down as the series progresses, and Maka was never exactly MissFanservice to begin with. The anime averts this, however, instead using the MagicSkirt trope.
* {{Pettanko}}: Compared to the other girls in the cast, anyway. And this anxiety is played-up in the manga.
** [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by the cast in chapter 72, where [[spoiler:everyone [[GenderBender turns into the opposite gender]] and Maka's friends note that Maka hasn't changed a bit..]].

The Wikia entries for both [[http://souleater.wikia.com/wiki/Maka_Albarn Maka]] and [[http://souleater.wikia.com/wiki/Soul_Eater_Evans Soul]] make it explicitly clear, no matter what [[WordOfGod Ohkubo]] [[LyingCreator says]] (as if his ''throwing himself on top of her'' to protect her from certain death and her worry that other ''female'' meisters might be better suited weren't hint enough):

A loud-mouthed ninja who doesn't seem to grasp [[HighlyVisibleNinja the concept]] [[WithCatlikeTread of stealth]], Black?Star is a perpetual show-off whose stated goal in life is to surpass God. He is Tsubaki's meister.
-----
* TheAce: Frequently lampshaded. The only thing that holds him back from succeeding in every mission is his own need to show off.
* AlmightyJanitor: After the [[spoiler:Book of Eibon arc]], Death the Kid hails Black?Star as the [[spoiler:strongest meister in Shibusen]], and yet Black?Star is far from [[spoiler:promoting Tsubaki to a Death Scythe]] or be recognized by the masses that [[spoiler:he indeed is the strongest]].

* BoisterousBruiser
* CatchPhrase: "I am the man who will surpass god!" and "YAH-HOO!"
* CharacterDevelopment: Especially in the manga.
* ChewingTheScenery: Any damage to the scenery is probably the result of Black?Star chewing on it.
* ChildhoodFriends: With Maka
* CrossdressingVoices: He's voiced by a woman in both the Japanese and English versions.
** But not in the Hungarian dub...which actually makes him ''slightly'' more tolerable.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: When Black?Star actually shuts up, he's able to fight well.
* DarkIsNotEvil
* DeadlyUpgrade: The Shadow?Star.
** [[spoiler:He gets better.]]
* {{Determinator}}
* {{Expy}}. ''Freaking {{Naruto}}''. The similar personality, back story, power up-grades etc. (just see down the list of tropes) can be a bit of a BaseBreaker in some circles. It's also been suggested that Black?Star is meant to be an exaggerated deconstruction of the whole Naruto-personality-thing, but if you compare Black?Star with the [[CharacterDevelopment current Naruto]], you'd probably cock your head to the side.
** Who else immediately thought of [[GuiltyGear Chipp Zanuff]] when he first saw Black?Star?

* IHaveTheHighGround: He loves this one. Once being so high up that nobody could hear him.
* [[spoiler:IKnowYouAreInThereSomewhereFight]]: [[spoiler:Against the {{Face Heel Turn}}ed Kid. Doesn't mean he'll stop trying to both talk ''and'' beat sense into him, though.]]
** [[spoiler:It ultimately worked, and Kid's more or less back]].
* InnocentCohabitation: According to Black?Star in Chapter 75, Tsubaki and he sleep in the same room because they aren't enough rooms in the house. Kilik is jealous because, hey, it's ''[[TallDarkAndBishoujo Tsubaki]]'' we're talking about here.
* JapanesePronouns: Refers himself as Ore-Sama most of the time.
* {{Jerkass}}

* KiAttacks

* OnlyOneName
* OpenTheIris: Averted, similair to Maka, his normally invisible pupils becoming visible when emotionally shocked or angered.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: His [[spoiler: Shadow?Star Zero Kata Masamune]] and later after he joins Spartoi he gets one.
* [[spoiler:ScarsAreForever]]: [[spoiler:His star tattoo is bisected by a scar after his final battle with Mifune in the manga, indicative of his character development. And from that same fight he got scars down his arms and one on his face.]]
* ScreamingWarrior: [[spoiler:He uses loud voice to disrupt Crona's Screech resonance.]]

* TookALevelInBadass: In the manga. [[spoiler:When Shibusen tracks down Crona, he encounters him/her and whups his/her ass so hard that even [[SmugSnake Medusa]] starts getting a little disconcerted at how the fight's going. Then she sent Eruka and Mizune sisters as backup, they don't help much.]]
** Well, there's that and the fight which first demonstrates that improvement; [[spoiler:after how badly he'd been getting beaten before leaving for Japan the ''proper'' dark demon blade mode, when Black?Star and Tsubaki fight Mifune, comes out of nowhere]].
** [[spoiler:The fact that he doesn't give into the "Madness of Power" in chapter 78 bears mentioning. Thirty chapters ago, [[HeroicBSOD he would have]]. CharacterDevelopment is a marvelous thing]].
* TranquilFury: He's most dangerous when he's not talking.
* [[spoiler:WarriorTherapist]]: [[spoiler:Succeeds in talking Kid back to sanity.]]
* [[spoiler:WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity]]: [[spoiler: Literally and without him losing his mind.]]
* TheWorfEffect: Black?Star suffers from this [[spoiler:(he beats Mifune in his first appearance and takes down Sid, but is [[CurbStompBattle utterly overpowered by Stein]], bested by Death the Kid, needs help to take down Free, fails to stop Medusa, [[SingleStrokeBattle is one-shotted by Asura during his awakening]], [[CurbStompBattle utterly humiliated by Mifune during their rematch]], and failed to complete his objective during the battle with Mosquito)]] and indeed suffers a minor HeroicBSOD from it. Later in the anime after recovering from his HeroicBSOD, he fights [[spoiler:Asura]] and the Worf Effect started when [[spoiler:Asura recovered from Death the Kid's Death Cannon with all three Sanzu Lines]].

-->Voiced by: MamoruMiyano (JP), TakakoHonda (JP - CD dramas), ToddHaberkorn (EN)

Son of the Grim Reaper and meister to Liz and Patti. He is a very gifted meister whose only flaw is his crippling OCD, which manifests as an obsessive need to have everything be symmetrical. Hence, his naturally asymmetrical hairstyle is a source of great angst for him.

In the recent story arc, [[spoiler:Kid has been kidnapped by Noah and is trapped in the Book of Eibon. His mental state has seemed to take a turn for the worse... so much that he either went crazy, was BrainWashed, or just plainly had a FaceHeelTurn]].

[[spoiler: And now he's going to kill the Kishin in his father's place. ON THE MOON.]]
-----
* AlmightyJanitor: Perhaps the only one of the three main teams to still count as this. [[spoiler:Black?Star and Maka are promoted to two-star students whereas Kid, thanks to having been kidnapped by a magician, is still where he started. Though for him it always was more of a technicality]].

* {{BFG}}: As a Death Cannon.
* BigEater: In the episode of Crona's party, she and Black Star could be seen sucking up the entirety of the buffet table. Earlier that episode, in a brief shot of the group having a meal, she's practically face down in her plate of food, shoveling.
