SoKid

SoKid is the slash ship between Soul Evans and Death the Kid from the Soul Eater fandom.

Canon
Soul and Kid are teammates and classmates at DWMA. The two only met indirectly at first, as Kid watched the others fight Sid. On Kid's first day at the academy, Soul and Black Star are waiting for him to challenge him to a fight. After Kid arrives three hours late, Soul approaches Kid and is confused by his behavior regarding Symmetry. Kid fights Soul and Black Star, defeating them but fainting after they clipped his bangs during an attack.

Despite initial difficulties, the two quickly become friends with each other. When Soul is released from the school infirmary, Kid attends a party in honor of his release. He sits next to Soul and compliments the neat condition of Soul and Maka's apartment. During the super written exam, the two sit next to each other again and Soul tries to copy from Kid. After Kid falls unconscious, Soul reports this to their teacher.

After Crona joined the DWMA, the group plays a game of basketball with them. Soul and Kid sit on a bench and watch the others. They talk about how well Crona is slowly integrating. Kid asks if Soul is okay with this and touches Soul's scar on his chest that Crona gave him in their first fight. Soul replied that it wasn't cool to dwell on the past. Kid is initially a little surprised by his answer, but then smiles in amusement. Later, Soul attends the party at Kid's house and brings a few of his records with him.

Manga
In the final chapter of the manga, Kid asks Soul to come on stage to officially give him the title of the Last Death Scythe. Afterwards, Kid asks Soul to play some music for the celebrations, which he does. In their final interaction, Kid is seen happily standing next to Soul as he plays music.

Fanon
SoKid is not a popular ship in the fandom and much rarer compared to other slash pairings like GiriJus, Spein or Deathstar. Fans of this ship started to like the pairing, due to the friendship between the two. On AO3, as of 2023, they have over 95 fanfictions. It is also the 11th most written pairing within the Soul Eater tag. Some fans like to ship these two with Maka, SoMaKid, or Black Star, SoKidStar.
