Harvar and ox, I don’t have much of an opinion on them but they sure are there. Harvar’s a giant anteater and Ox is a Hampshire pig

I'll be honest before reading the whole manga I truly believed that "wow the B-team get a whole lot of focus!" but after reading it it seems that even if they get more in the end they still feel like negligible parts of it all (besides the Ox-Kim thing and some little scenes) If I was cheeky I would say that it is actually a plus of the anime that they got shown so little because they didnt matter in the end so not focusing on them was the right call.

I mean, I think Team B gets short shrift in the first anime.

Granted, we get a lot of Kim and Jackie in the NOT anime, thanks to that anime sticking close to the manga. And we get most of Ox’s big moments in the first anime, such as the Ultimate Written Exam, and some anime-only stuff in the Excalibur episodes.

But we miss out on the big Ox moment, that being his dedication to bring Kim back to the DWMA.

And we don’t get to see Kilik wielding four weapons. (Anime reboot stans? _That_ is the moment that needs an adaptation.)

I think losing Ox’s Baba Yaga moment and Kilik’s contributions to fights is enough to make me think they got better served in the manga (although, at least the anime removed the worst parts from the Hiro and Excalibur episode with regards to Kim and Jackie).

In comparison, I struggle to think how the anime serves Team B better. We get some more scenes with Ox in the Excalibur episodes, and those scenes are funny. Jackie is a non-entity in the first anime. Kilik’s participation in the fight during the third Excalibur episode is well done. We get their disguises in Baba Yaga Castle, but they don’t do something as big and flashy as Team A in that anime finale--important for infiltrating the enemy headquarters, just not as memorable or built up in a way to let us love these characters and cheer them on. I find it hard to act like this anime sequence compares at all to how emotional Kim and Ox get in the manga’s Baba Yaga arc, or Kim’s dramatic arrival on the Moon (before slapping Ox for shaving his head), or Kilik firing Azusa at Asura from the Earth’s surface.

But you’re not wrong that the fandom response to Team B would give the impression they must be a big part of the manga--because, honestly, this fanbase is usually excellent at giving attention to underserved characters. Maybe that’s more noticeable with how fans give us a lot more depth to Maka and other main characters. But they don’t slouch on giving Kilik and the Pots attention, as well as attention to Kim and Jackie and Ox.

Too bad Harvar is a rather blank slate.

This isn't riordanverse related but I need anyone who sees this to know I am absolutely unhinged and uncaring of canon okay I used to ship Harvar D Eclair and Hiro from Soul Eater based solely on the evidence that Harvar doesn't appear in Hiro's episode or manga chapter and while I don't really ship much anymore I still 100% headcanon they have some sort of complicated relationship stemming from a shared past. Do I have any evidence? Absolutely not-- HOWEVER I do have a LACK OF EVIDENCE OTHERWISE and that's all I need.
