Why does maka hate her dad

Maka and Eternal Feather begin fighting, Maka being on the defense and tries to appeal to Eternal Feather, stating that they have no intention of hurting the weapon. As Maka realizes that she needs to be taken down, she then suddenly stops and puts a blade to her neck as she is order secretly by Shaula to kill herself.

Eternal Feather slits her own throat, much to Maka's surprise. Akane questioned both on Eternal Feather's behavior, in which Maka noted that she looked like she was being controlled.

She is then questioned if she saw suspicious behavior but she notes that given the circumstances of the event, she couldn't tell. Akane then asks both Maka and Soul If they've seen their suspected, showing a picture of Shaula Gorgon , though both of them deny having seen her. As Soul questions if she's a target, Akane confirms and reveals they haven't released info on her yet. Soul takes advantage of the opportunity and tells him to leak the info to him so that him and Maka can get extra credit.

Akane then asks how much he's offering. Both Maka and Clay are surprised at their actions. As she eats, she comments on how the " deceased chicken " is " fillin' up my [her] gut ", as she is a Death Child and feels the need to speak in a odd manner. Soul, who arrives at the same table as her to eat, tells her to quit the " Death-Child talk ". NOT students are required to attend a summer school session.

Sid Barrett introduces to the students Maka Albarn and Soul Eater, who will demonstrate how weapons can control their abilities. But Sid tells Raid that he really needs to imagine himself being the weapon to completely transform. He does remind all students, however, to have patience, as they are in no rush to perfect their weapon abilities.

With Tsugumi now up for evaluation, Maka calls out good luck to her. While Tsugumi is able to form the spear and scythe of a halberd, Sid notes that she still lacks the axe blade. As Soul reviews the flyer for the Battle Festival , he questions Maka on the prize for being the champion, though Maka at first says " I'm dead " as a defeault answer and Soul reprimands her to not do so, as it's starting to scare him.

She then tells Soul the reward for winning the Battle Festival is that champion gets to meet Death in person. She tells Soul that as long as they understand one another and let their souls resonate, they can beat even the most powerful of foes. Her inspiring words encourage Soul to go through with the Battle Festival.

Maka is on a mission to hunt the evil soul, Jack the Ripper. Accompanied with her living scythe weapon partner named 'Soul Eater', the two heroic fighters reclaim the lost soul and report to the headmaster of the academy they attend, Death. While explaining their progress, Spirit Albarn , Maka's father and the weapon of Death himself, butts in to give his two cents and to critique Soul Eater for reasons ultimately going back to his daughter of who, hates her father with a passion.

Death gives them the final task collecting a witch's soul to achieve their final academic goal of making a weapon into a ' Death Scythe '. When a living weapon absorbs 99 evil souls of corrupt humans and consume the magical soul of a witch, the person in question will have their powers raised to god-like proportions and become worthy enough to be wielded by the shinigami.

Their eagarness gets the better of them as they rush off toward their graduating mission directly toward a pumpkin patch where a witch takes residence; the witch in question is Blair , a magical being who happens to be taking a bath. Soul Eater, unaware, bursts through her window and gets quite a show before being punished by Maka herself.

However, battle does ensue over the course of four days with the the DWMA duo losing. On the night of the fourth day, Maka and soul make a turn around on the witch and are close to reaching their goal they've hunted 99 souls for, Blair plays to Soul's ear and he apparently cuts ties with Maka. After a brief show of hostility, it turns out to be only a stroke of genius for Soul to get to Blair to drop her guard. Upon taking the opening, Maka and Soul relish their hard earned victory and customarily, Soul eats Blair's soul.

Unfortunately, this soul wasn't a genuine witch's, rather a magical cat 's soul, thus ruining their run. The morning after, Maka walks in Soul's room to find him with Blair, who had snuck up on him. Misunderstanding the situation, Maka kicks Soul out of the window in fury. Later, at school, Soul tells her of a rumor that had been going around recently.

Their homeroom teacher, Sid Barrett had been missing and rumors had gone around that he might be a zombie attacking students. Maka is frightened by Soul Eater's retelling of the stories but tries to write them off as meaningless rumors. Much to Maka's dismay, her father becomes a temporary replacement for their homeroom teacher. However, the two are sent to the Death Room to see Shinigami. Death, upon meeting them, informs them that they all must take remedial lessons lessons.

Maka is shocked by this, thinking that remedial lessons are only for idiots; however, she is soon demoralized when she is told that she has acquired a low number of souls as of now.

Death informs them to go after Sid, who had indeed been turned into a zombie, and find who had turned him into one. If they do not succeed, all four of them will be expelled. The four decide to go to Sid's grave in Hook Cemetery to start their investigation. Maka is still too depressed to care because of her having to take extra lessons.

However, she soon readies herself as Sid attacks them. A battle soon ensues between the students and teacher. Maka and Soul argue as to who botched up the Resonance. Sid relents and says that is was Stein who had made him into a zombie, but refuses to tell them where he is. Soul, refusing to give up, flips Maka's skirt also, covering his eyes.

To Maka's annoyance, Sid shows no reaction towards her. The four then proceed to Stein's lab to encounter and deal with the source of the problem. After a rather bemusing introduction, it is concluded that the only way to resolve the issues is to defeat Stein. Maka rightfully begins to fear Stein and this is only furthered when she observes his far stronger soul, using Soul Perception for the first time. It appears that she is frozen by her fear, but Soul manages to encourage her to fight him, saying that just because she had seen his soul; she has not seen the future.

The two attack again and successfully Resonate and connect their Witch Hunt. Unfortunately Stein is still able to overpower the attack, leaving Maka barely conscious on the ground. Before Stein can grab her however, Soul appears and crouches over Maka, telling him that he will not let him hurt his Meister. Stein, pleased by Soul's bravery, gives him a pass point, and Stein reveals that the lesson has now ended. From this point onwards Stein becomes Maka's teacher.

Maka, horrified, actually starts to want her father to be her teacher instead. Maka is seen in class watching the new teacher, Stein; prepare to dissect an endangered bird on the brink of extinction. Maka tells Stein that, when two Meisters fight on school grounds, one staff member has to foresee it. With that said, Stein brings Tsubaki and Maka with him.

Outside, Stein teaches Maka about matching wavelength with one's partner s. She watches in dismay as the helpless pair fail to act as a Meister and Weapon and end up being defeated by Death the Kid after trying to execute a sneak attack. Maka explains that Soul's sneak attack earlier had cut Kid's bangs, making them asymmetrical, and he had fainted because he had just noticed this. She approaches a battered Soul, and gently scolds him for picking pointless fights, which had been what Soul had told her once before.

Soul laughs and admits that he had been 'not cool. Maka and Soul agree to work together again as they reconcile. When Death comes to pick up his son, Kid, Maka takes the opportunity to see his soul. She, however cannot see it and leaves it at that. What she does not know, however, is that the reason she cannot see Death's soul is because it covers the entirety of the DWMA. Having been sent to Italy to hunt down Sonson-J and entering a confrontation with the evil human wielding Soul Eater, Maka slays him before he has a chance to react, remarking the ability to kill from DWMA students isn't granted freely as the serial killer insinuated.

As Soul consumes the deceased human soul, she asks the Demon Weapon if souls taste good, her weapon confirming they, indeed are. Reminding Soul of their duty as DWMA students to investigate mysterious occurrences despite his objections, they investigate. Arriving there on Soul's motorcycle, Maka realizes all the souls present from before have vanished. As she opens the door, she has a feeling she shouldn't.

Feeling compelled to her duty as a DWMA student, she opens the door, finding the mysterious Meister and Weapon whom she senses earlier. Although she see's only one individual, Maka concludes that the other must be literally inside the Meister.

She notices the weapon, Ragnarok , making it's entrance from inside Crona and watches from utter surprise at the sight. Surprised at Ragnarok being able to speak, she informs Crona of it being forbidden to over hunt souls and when Crona retorts her notion with their own belief that " she " said it was okay, Maka prepares to engage the Meister.

Entering a fight, Maka seemingly easily gains the upper hand until she attempts to behead Crona. Maka deduces that Crona's blood harden, preventing their beheading. The tables turn as soon as Crona uses Screech Resonance , being unable to injure Crona or use her weapon to defend herself and resorts to dodging and attempts to escape. Trapped, Soul protects Maka as he recieves a grievous injury. Blaming herself for what happened to Soul, she is seemingly about to be killed when she is saved by the intervention of Professor Stein and her father, Death Scyhte.

Concerned for Soul, she learns that Crona is an individual on their way to becoming a Kishin. Learning of Soul Protect , she is intimidated by the Witch's power, surprised her mother made her father a Death Scythe by killing one. Back at Death Weapon Meister Academy, she watches as Stein finishes performing an operation on him, learning that Stein was able to save the Weapon from certain death and goes to see him.

Doctor Medusa then enters the scene, asking Maka to get her father off of her leg. Maka also chops her father. When Doctor Medusa comments on Soul's condition, she apologizes as she still blames herself. Medusa then "comforts" Maka, telling her that she'll get stronger. Maka later is present when Soul awakens after having a nightmare, relieved to see Soul awake and alive.

She then attempts to make herself useful to her partner to assist in his recovery, though he reminds her that he feels that it's his fault he's injured. However, this actually only makes her even more sad. As she leaves, she berates herself for worrying about Soul and is approached by her father, requesting the both of them go on the roof. Trying to make conversation, Maka asks If her father really loves her mother and then asks why did he cheat on her frequently.

With no response, she also doesn't allow her father to change the scenery. Maka later asks her father about Stein's words and Ragnarok being the "seed of the Kishin", pleading for her father to explain to her what it means. Her father then explains that the collection and hunting of souls has been a constant battle of good and evil, explaining the origins of the Kishin.

Her father goes on to tell the story of a Meister who once served under Death himself much like the DWMA and was afraid of death. During a battle, he began serving his weapon innocent human souls and a Kishin was made as the final result. Afterwards the DWMA was built to serve as a deterrent for the rise of another Kishin as well as teach Meisters and Weapons to further prevent another rising.

Maka then understands that Ragnarok, the Demon Sword, is a candidate to becoming a Kishin. Maka also watches as the assassin cannot handle the power, his wavelength overloading. Stein then informs Maka that his yearning to "surpass gods" was his unique way of motivating himself, telling her that once she found the motivation to come see him.

Going to see Soul, she finds herself running out as she is reminded of Soul's injury from his scar. Later that day during the party and after they all ate, Maka fumes at Soul for criticizing her cooking. Speculating that one of the Witches may be the one they encountered earlier in Italy, Stein dismisses it.

Yearning to face the Demon Sword Master once again, she tells Professor Stein that she found her motivation, with him smiling and alerting her to come by his office the next day. Maka pays a visit to Medusa in order to get a blood test, concerned of her condition after coughing up Black Blood in her battle with Free. Medusa gives Maka some medicinal herbs in hopes of strengthening the Black Blood, and then asks Maka on how Soul is doing. She tells her how Soul had told her of his dreams, and that he had been quite distressed.

Maka is shocked as she had not heard this from Soul and tries to hide her anger towards her partner as she excuses herself. She crossly decides to confront him when she gets home. However, on the way, she meets Stein, who, suspicious of Medusa, takes the medicine she had received from her.

Maka and friends arrive at the the DWMA commemoration party. During the party, she sees Soul alone outside and tries to talk to Soul about any of his problems, with little effect.

Annoyed that Soul had told Medusa of his dreams and not her, Maka tries to change the mood and asks Soul to dance with her. Soul declines this offer, and when Spirit arrives, asking his daughter to dance with him, Soul persuades her to do so, much to her dismay.

However, Maka leaves some food behind from the buffet for Soul. The party is interrupted when Medusa and her group begin to trap everyone in order for them to awake the Kishin. Once underground, Stein tells them of how Medusa is planning to reawaken the Kishin that is sealed beneath the DWMA, and offers everyone a chance to back out of the upcoming battle. Along with everyone else, Maka declines and prepares herself, changing from her dress to her usual uniform, donning her trench coat.

Whilst on the way to stop Medusa, Maka senses a Wavelength that deeply disturbs her: that of her father. Spirit joins the group after he had also escaped from Free's Spatial Magic, much to Maka's annoyance. They soon encounter Medusa. Maka also does so, by taking a risky path right through the blind spot of Medusa's attacks.

She manages to pass through, and Stein stays behind with Spirit to battle Medusa. She expresses more confidence in the battle, and manages to aggravate Crona, and tells Ragnarok after he insults her that she is pleased that he is now treating her as an enemy rather than a meal. However, Crona still proves to be more powerful than her, countering her Witch Hunt with Screech Alpha. Soul, shocked, thinks she is only a mere illusion that Little Ogre had created, but a Maka Chop from her shows him that she is real, and that they can converse to each other because their souls are in Resonance.

The two dance together in the Black Room, and Maka tells him that she had heard Little Ogre after the Black Blood had temporarily infected her during the fight against Free, and urges him to accept his bargain for power when it appears to be their only chance of victory during their second battle against Crona. She tells him that she might gain more understanding of Crona's Soul Wavelength if she falls into the same sort of madness as it.

Soul appears reluctant, but he finally agrees, promising Maka that he will bring her back no matter how deep she sinks into madness. During this battle, the Black Blood causes Maka to fall into a crazed state of delirium, while Soul Eater holds on to both of their sanities, drowning in the darkness he refers to as madness. Because of the Black Blood hardening within her body, she is able to gain an immunity against slash and crush attacks and also acquires superior strength, quickly overpowering Crona.

While in this state, Maka is not only quite crazy but also quite silly, as her movements, behavior, and her fighting style change drastically, and she resembles a state of inebriation. Her drastic behavior is clearly indicated by her swaying, constant giggling, and attempt to devour Crona's head. The true Maka is embarrassed by her actions, but Soul reassures her that her current state is no different as to how she usually acts. Soul tells her to quickly find Crona's soul.

After passing by her own soul and her partner's soul, she sees Crona's soul. Whilst her physical self is crazily attacking them, her mental self manages to see into Crona's soul. Later in their fight, she begins to understand Crona's soul and realizes that Crona has always lacked any sort of close relationship with anyone, not even with their mother, Medusa.

As Soul manages to pull her out of the madness, Maka puts Soul aside, much to his surprise, walks calmly through Crona's Bloody Needle attacks getting stabbed a few times in the process, although the Black Blood still manages to protect her and embraces Crona, subduing them and stopping their rampage.

Their fight ends with Maka asking to become Crona's friend. Crona starts to cry and decides to help Maka. Ragnarok, however, is displeased, and attacks Maka, which Soul and Crona try to prevent. On the way, Soul is concerned for Maka's wounds she had received, but Maka realizes that the Black Blood had healed them.

However, she sees that her Black Blood is no longer in her body, and wonders why. However, she has no time to think as she senses Asura being released. She rushes to stop Asura.

Despite her effort Asura is still released, but Maka still tries to stop him, grabbing one of his skin scarves and using Soul to try and slow him down. However, when Asura emerges above Death City, some falling debris hits her and she is left falling towards Death City. Luckily, Soul cushions the blow, probably saving her life. Maka still briefly tries to go after Asura, but loses consciousness. After Asura escapes, Soul carries her through the ruined Death City.

Maka is cooped up in her and Soul's apartment, worrying over Crona. Soul, in order to give her some fresh air, drags a reluctant Maka outside this scene is only in the anime. To make the game more interesting, Soul brings up the idea of a bet for each of the teams' respective captain to follow if they lose. If Kid's team loses, they will put the paintings on Kid's walls in his mansion off by 1 in; if Maka's team loses, she has to go shopping with her father.

Ultimately, Kid's team wins, since Maka, having never played basketball, easily loses as she does not know the rules. Maka reluctantly asks her father to go shopping with her, and Spirit ends up vomiting out of happiness and suprise, much to her shock. Maka visits Crona on the day of their first day at the DWMA after asking Sid for permission, as the zombie fails to coax Crona out of their room.

Maka enters Crona's room to get them out. After a shaky start as Maka gives Crona a Maka Chop by accident after aiming for Ragnarok, who had flipped her skirt, she and Marie coax them out and show them around the Academy. However, Crona, depressed, seems fully convinced that they will never fit in.

To cheer them up, Maka proposes that Crona write a poem to express themselves, which is met immediately with scorn by Soul who suffers multiple Maka Chops as punishment. There, the gang ask around about the event with no results. Their arrival seems to attract hostility from the villagers. They soon meet a man named Sou who promises to tell them about the incident. While following Sou, Soul expresses his suspicions about him, and indeed, the group are soon attacked by the Oldest Golem.

Maka quickly notices the Golem has a Soul Wavelength, despite the fact that Golems do not have souls. At this point, the man named Sou reveals himself to be Giriko and transforms into his Weapon form and partners with the Oldest Golem. The Golem goes after Maka and Soul and quickly overwhelms them. Maka then convinces Ragnarok and Crona into helping her. With that, the two team up and battle the enemy. Maka manages to get through the Golem's guard, cut the Golem and, immediately after dealing the strike, a large amount of spider webs shoot out of the opening and paralyze her.

This forces Crona to defend her when the Golem strikes. Soul watches over the paralyzed Maka. Maka then watches numerous spiders congregate and form into the Witch Arachne. Arachne reveals that she had been surveying the world for hundreds of years through the eyes of many spiders. She proves this by referring to Soul and Maka by name and identifying Crona as Medusa's child. The battle soon seems hopeless, as Crona is overwhelmed by Giriko, who is ordered by Arachne to kill them.

Before Crona can be beheaded, Justin Law makes it in time to prevent it. Maka, along with Soul, watches the battle between Justin and Giriko. She expresses her awe at both of the Weapons' power. After defeating it, he orders everyone to pray for it.

As Maka closes her eyes, she hears Soul curse to himself about being too weak to fight for Maka like Justin and Giriko, and gives him a concerned look. After Justin defeats the golem, he carries the paralyzed Maka off inside the coffin attached to his dune buggy. Maka is annoyed as everyone pretends to ignore her, and sympathizes with Sid as she finds herself covered in flowers in a coffin.

Maka is visited by all her friends in the infirmary in light of the recent events that had caused her paralysis. He later returns, defeated by Mifune , when Soul is saying goodbye to Maka for the night. Maka recovers from her condition and is seen in Stein's class as he is about to start a lesson. Overall, the lesson is a failure. Maka is seen at a party with all her other friends thrown in celebration for her recovery.

She comforts Crona with everyone else, who is still getting used to having people around him. When Maka asks Soul to play the piano, he refuses and goes to the bathroom. When Liz asks what kind of songs he plays, Maka replies that Soul plays really dark and strange songs. When the party ends, the group splits up. The group again try to make Soul play the piano for them. Their efforts still remain fruitless. Soul tells everyone that his songs are not worth listening too. Maka objects, telling him that she had liked the song Soul had played for her once.

Soul, frustrated for some reason, tells her that she only likes his music because of her low Musical IQ. Maka defends her love of, 'The Pon Poko Dance,' which is immediately made fun of by the others. She attempts to bring Crona into the conversation, but they quickly retreat and excuse themselves. Maka wonders about their strange behavior.

Witnessing Hiro being bullied around by the other students, she sympathetically comments that Hiro would have been more popular if he went to a normal school, since he is too shabby here at the DWMA. Stein warns them that if they do not succeed, then they will be removed from his class. Despite this, the three students fail multiple times, which angers Maka. She starts arguing with him, but Kid steps in between them, and Stein decides to give them a break to cool down.

She fails at this and returns to the group. This infuriates Maka, bringing her to try to punch him, but fails. Kid tries to diffuse the situation, but Soul steps in and tells him to leave the two to sort it out on their own. With that said Maka curses at the top of her lungs and runs off in tears. She is soon visited by Tsubaki. Maka replies simply by saying that he ticks her off.

She asks Tsubaki why he never gets good grades, and Tsubaki admits that she does not know. Tsubaki says that friends do not need to understand each other all the time. Realizing her mistake and on how to achieve a true Chain Resonance, Maka eagerly decides to return to the others, and Tsubaki wonders if it was necessary for her to come in the first place.

However, Maka, on the way, panics, wondering on how to apologize. She is then met by Soul. She asks him if he had come to laugh at her, and Soul pauses before replying that the laughter should wait until after they had succeeded the Chain Resonance. The group resume their training and succeed, with Maka not trying to understand them, but putting her life in their hands and trusting them.

Stein then makes Maka the leader of the group. To everyone's surprise, he ends up hitting her hard and, though apparently bruised after being sent flying, Maka smiles and says, 'Ouch. The Demon Tool is located in a large magnetic field in the middle of the island , which is harmful to the human body if one is there for too long. The students' job is to prevent Arachnophobia forces from entering the field whilst Marie and Stein go inside. If they do not return after twenty minutes, they are to retreat.

Maka questions on this, saying that she does not want to leave Marie and Stein behind. Ox replies that if they go in the field, the enemies will follow and the battle will get out-of-hand, leading to people being lost because of staying in the field for too long. He questions Maka, saying if she deserves to be top of the class, a comment which hits Maka hard. When Stein and Marie, the duo responsible for retrieving Brew in the vortex of Lost Island, take too long to reappear, the group begins to worry.

Ox, Kirikou, and Kim decide to stay behind and take care of the forces opposing them. The first thing they notice is Death and that the vortex is a sort of frozen time anomaly repeatedly showing the events that led to the explosion on the island. The group then hurries to a temple. It may come as a surprise but Spirit is actually a very childish character, sure he can be serious but most of the time he is childish. He seems to be playful, but can be serious when it is needed, like during battles.

Spirit is also a kind of player. In a sense he reminds me of Brock, from Pokemon. He chases after every pretty girl he sees. Although Brock does not go to cabaret clubs. This powerful demon weapon is also a huge pevert. An example of this is when he calls role in the academy, he only calls role for the females, which is rather creepy. Another would be when he meets Blair, he offers to be her "cat toy".

Spirit is also very compassionate and loving. He loves Maka deeply and still hasn't given up on winning her affections, so I guess he is also perserverant. This got to Spirit because he transformed back to and grabbed Medusa to speak his mind but he choked up and couldn't actually say anything.

Okay so Maka's and Spirit's relationship is very strained. There hardly is any communication on Maka's side. You see, this is a somewhat normal behavior since her mother and father are divorced. Now I know what some of you may be thinking, that is no reason Maka to hate her father with a burning passion.

Well my beautiful souls, there it more to the story. The reason that they got divorced was because Spirit cheated on Maka's mother, in multiple occasions. So you can see why Maka has some issues with her dad. She is very untrusting when it comes to men, especially if it's her father. Every time Spirit tries to get close to Maka she pushes him away or just plains ignores him. This, however, does not discourage Spirit from loving Maka or supporting her. Spirit always claims that he feels very guilty, but Maka doesn't believe that because his actions speak differently.

By this she means, that he is constantly chasing after other women. I wondered if this father felt rejected by his daughter. Is this toddler rejecting her father? Is this toddler being mean to her Dad?

Children often act dismissive toward us when we just want to be with them during that time when we first get back together. It is one of the big drivers of guilt in parents, especially mothers, who work. Working to provide for the family is not letting our kids down. Neither is taking a couple hours to go to the gym and annoying your little one by putting them in the kids playroom.

Consider that these separations are valuable practice for our children. They are a chance for our kids to try managing for themselves for a while, in the safe and caring environments where we leave them. Pediatricians observe repeatedly that children who are never away from their parents actually have a much harder time with separation anxiety than those who get to practice here and there.

All too often, when I walk into an exam room, young children suddenly stop playing and run to their parents. I may be well known to their parents, but with three to six months between visits, I am a relative stranger to their kids.

So, what do I do with a shy kid? I flip it.
