Later that day, Maka and Soul are seen at school. While Maka is trying to read her book, Soul tried converse with Maka but she didn't want to be bothered as she was studying and tells him to leave her alone. Soul calls her a "study hound" and Maka retaliated by hitting him with her [[Maka Chop]]. Maka reluctantly allowed Soul to finish what conversation he originally wanted to talk about. Soul goes on by telling her that there is someone out to get Shibusen students and kid next door got beaten to a pulp, supposedly the culptit being a zombie with a hole on his forehead. Soul tries freaking Maka out and Maka hits him with her book again. Maka believes the story Soul heard is just a rumor. Suddenly, [[Spirit]] walks in the room trying to make a strong impression especially to Maka though she only gets annoyed. Soul asks her dad if he is the new teacher to which he answers he is temporarily.

Manga and Anime Differences

  • In the manga, after Maka and Soul leave, Spirit decides he wants to take the class to Chupa♡Cabra's for a field trip while in the anime this was never seen.
  • In the manga, when Sid first tried attacking Maka with his tombstone, Black☆Star stopped his attack with his foot while in the anime he stopped it with his Kusarigama.
  • In the manga, Black☆Star when Black☆Star uses his Kusarigama to corner Sid it creates strong wind currents while in the anime it was less extreme.
  • In the manga, when Maka's Witch Hunter misses it slashes several graves but in the anime it doesn'r and instead slashes the ground.
  • In the manga, when Sid emerges from under the ground the second time, he manages to cut Maka but in the anime it doesn't happen as Black☆Star deflected his attack.
  • In the manga, after Sid was defeated they questioned him on who turned him. Though he doesn't spill, so Black☆Star unravels Tsubaki's dress to get him to talk which he does.

Trivia

  • Shinigami made the comment that altogether Maka, Soul, Black Star, and Tsubaki had captured a total of zero souls. Despite this comment Maka and Soul had actually captured the soul of Rasputin earlier on the night before.
  • In the anime it isn't noted how Maka, Soul, Black Star, and Tsubaki find out Stein is the culprit, however in the Manga Black Star coaxes it out of Sid by lifting up Tsubaki's clothing and Soul lifts up Maka's skirt.
