A flying lesson supplies the comic opening of Soul Eater 16. The digital contents list chapters 63–67, and the inspected pages give Maka and Soul a problem that depends on a shared mental image. It is a useful change of pace for readers continuing from the operation. The preview establishes the training setup and the need for a shared image; it does not establish the tone or success of the later chapters.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
An exceptional soul does not automatically make its owner a competent pilot. Marie separates the possibility of flight from control, and Spirit urges Soul to keep imagining Maka as angelic. The experiment briefly works. Soul then remembers an angry Maka, and the image supporting their cooperation falls apart. Their dispute about fluffy and spiky wings reduces an impressive ability to whether a partner will endorse a flattering self-portrait. The opening allows power to arrive before dignity. Its training pause is valuable as comedy, without promising that everything after the castle has become easier.
