Meister Maka Albarn and her weapon partner Soul Eater have collected 99 kishin souls, souls of weapon meisters and death scythes who have eaten human souls, causing their souls to become corrupt and turn into what they call kishin, and only need the soul of a witch to turn Soul into a death scythe. The two seek out the witch Blair, who frequently gets the better of them and tries to seduce Soul. During a battle, Soul tricks Blair into thinking he wants to abandon Maka and become her weapon, allowing Maka to take her soul.

Asura, being injured from the battle with Lord Death, begins to put up a barrier around himself preparing for a deep sleep. Before the barrier closes, Maka, Black Star, Kid, and their weapons are the only ones able to get inside and they proceed to end the madness that began long ago. However, having devoured Arachne's soul, Asura grows tremendously in size and strength, but although they do not appear to be injuring him, Kid thinks they are as the barrier is weakening. However, Soul accidentally pushes himself too far and is devoured by the black blood of the Little Demon. With Soul, the only one who can help them do a duel arts resonance link, down for the count, Maka goes to bring Soul back, with Black Star and Kid protecting her, and after crossing a long corridor she finds "Soul", who closes the door behind her.

Determined to avenge his father and protect the world, Kid tries to charge up, but Asura stabs him and Kid collapses to the ground. Seemingly dead, Kid's eyes suddenly fill with a blue light as the Lines of Sanzu, the white stripes in Kid's hair, activate and his soul becomes extremely powerful as his Death Cannon powers up. While Asura is distracted by this, Black Star takes advantage of the opening and knocks down Asura, allowing the empowered Kid to attack. However, Kid faints and Asura shrinks down to normal. Meanwhile, Maka is locked in a room with "Soul", telling her to open a box containing his courage, in which Soul's voice comes out from the box claiming to be the real Soul who sealed himself to prevent the madness from reaching him. However, Maka, knowing her partner too well, is aware that the "Soul" with her is actually Little Demon, who states to be a part of Soul now. Risking being devoured by the black blood while promising to save him, she decides to open a locked box and successfully saves him from darkness. Having lost control of the situation, the Little Demon shrinks in size, allowing Soul, who accepts the black blood as part of him, to eat him in one gulp. The two of them return to the battle to find everyone else laying unconscious and Asura still undefeated.
51	"The Word Is Bravery!" Transcription: "Aikotoba wa Yūki!" (Japanese: 合言葉は勇気!)	March 30, 2009	March 16, 2014
Maka and Soul are the only ones left standing against Asura. Believing that Maka's Genie Hunter is the only one that can combat against Asura, her strength and determination upgrades her ultimate attack to Kishin Hunter, but Asura easily shatters the attack and regenerates from it, and proceeds to issue his own attacks, one of which is blocked by Soul and for which Maka takes the full hit to protect Soul's unconscious body. As Asura believes Maka is finally defeated, her weapon blood awakens and she unconsciously continues attacking, but Asura still easily takes her down and forces her weapon blood to concede by waking her up with pain. Meanwhile, Crona tells everyone that Maka's true strength comes from her heart and not a technique, and Lord Death recovers. As Asura tells Maka that all hope for her is lost, she and the others, who recover from their unconscious state, reply that true strength comes from bravery. Asura, who does not understand what bravery is, then begins succumbing to fear. Afraid, Asura weakly tries to deny Maka's advances, but his attempts are futile when she punches him straight to the face. Realizing that bravery is just like madness, Asura explodes, cleansing the world of his madness. However, Kid fears the rebirth of another kishin. Maka remains confident, as everyone has bravery in their hearts.
