Ep 23. Dead or Alive! - in the Rift Between Revival and Dazzlement?

Maka and Soul have successfully retrieved the last of the evil human souls and are back at the DWMA. However, they quickly discover that the school is in chaos as their fellow students are revolting against the academy's system. The students are calling for an end to the tradition of turning demon weapons into death scythes and for the academy to focus on protecting humanity instead of collecting souls.

Meanwhile, in the aftermath of their fight with Eruka, Medusa is hiding in the shadows and watching the situation unfold. She sees the chaos at the academy as an opportunity to cause even more trouble and decides to take action.

Maka and Soul are tasked with finding Medusa and stopping her before she can do any more damage. Along the way, they encounter Crona and Ragnarok who challenge them to a fight. However, it quickly becomes clear that Crona is struggling with their own identity and loyalties.

As the battle intensifies, Maka and Soul must navigate the rift between the conflicting ideologies of revival and dazzlement. They also begin to question the motives of the DWMA and whether or not their actions truly align with their supposed goal of protecting humanity.

As the episode concludes, the fate of the academy and the world hangs in the balance as Maka and Soul struggle to find a path forward amidst the confusion and uncertainty.
