Fire Force and Soul Eater are two hugely popular series created by Atsushi Ohkubo. So, when it emerged that both series were connected, interest in them went through the roof. There are aspects of Soul Eater and Fire Force that, at a glance, seem worlds apart. For one, Soul Eater is famous for its fantastical world and characters, whereas Fire Force, despite having fantasy elements, is much more rooted in reality as we know it. However, once Soul Eater Easter eggs started appearing in Fire Force, speculation grew rife about there being a more tangible link between the stories.
