But as one young witch flees Death City, another has come back to DWMA hoping to strike a deal with Shinigami-sama.

Can Medusa be trusted to lead a team of students into the heart of enemy territory?!

"On the night of DWMA's anniversary celebration, every meister and weapon in Death City has gathered at the school for an evening of music and dancing. Little do they know that the witch Medusa is about the crash Shinigama-sama's party. Trapping the meisters inside, the witch makes her way to the chamber where the First Kishin is imprisoned. Will the few meisters who've managed to escape be enough to prevent Medusa from rousing the madness that slumbers far below in the Kishin's domain?"--Amazon.com.

The question is how many will be devoured by Crona's madness before he can be stopped?!

Kid enters the witches' realm to appeal for help! Though they have been DWMA's enemies for years, the witches share a respect for order--and are equally threatened by the Kishin.

Maka is a weapon meister, determined to turn her partner, a living scythe named Soul Eater, into a powerful death scythe - the ultimate weapon of Death himself!

Kid's sense of order stands in sharp contrast to the unpredictable madness of the Kishin. But order and madness are two sides of the same coin.

The bonds of his friendships and his faith in order are tested to their limits as Asura makes his final stand against the forces of DWMA. When the moondust settles, who will emerge as lord of this world--Shinigami or Kishin?
