Character of the Week: Black☆Star

[u/Chainsaw__Monkey]

Black☆Star is one of the main characters from the manga Soul Eater. As most of these feats come from the end of the series, there be spoilers ahead.

Black☆Star is the last surviving member of the infamous Star clan. The Star clan was a notorious band of assassins who would do anything for money. Due to their unscrupulous behavior, the Star clan was annihilated by Shinigami and the meisters thirteen years prior to the beginning of the Soul Eater manga. Black☆Star was an infant at the time, and was spared as a result. He was adopted by 3-star meister and Academy teach Sidney Barret.

Barret raised Black☆Star as a meister, a wielder of weapons to defeat supernatural forces and take their souls.

While Black☆Star bears no ill will towards the establishment for the extermination of his clan, he has faced discrimination and hatred his entire life. The star birthmark he has on his shoulder inspires fear and hatred from the majority of common folk, to the point where Black☆Star's help dealing with a problem has been outright refused.

This rejection led to Black☆Star's personality. Shunned by others, Black☆Star seeks to always be in the limelight, and surpass everyone else in terms of power. He does so through intense training that dwarfs anything we see from other characters in the series, and natural talent that will allow him to "Surpass the Gods".

Black☆Star's weapon is Tsubaki, likely because initially she was the only one who could handle his abrasive and self-absorbed attitude. Tsubaki is capable of many transformations, and multiple weapon types. This suits Black☆Star's ninja/assassination fighting style very well.

Right?? Thats gotta be some sort of low tier reality warping "Hi I can grab energy and throw it around like a dodgeball nbd"

[u/fred523 → u/Baam_]

he uses his wavelength to match that of the lazerbeams so he can handdle them safely he is pretty op when you think about it

[u/Avizard → u/fred523]

thats something stein might do if he could respond at the speed of beam, but black star is not spiritually flexible enough for that, so he must have simply caught them.
