It looks fine to me, but that is strictly a matter of personal taste.
The "Zero" does match what Geneon did for the anime. That is probably one reason why the manga logo does not bother me. It seems rather, uh, familiar.

I think the same. I feel like they did a quick job. The cover is nice, a better logo would have been great.

It's uh... a cover I guess.

Yeah, I really don't care one way or the other about the paperback covers.

I'm actually not too bothered by the typeface of the Zero's Familiar volume, but more so how obtrusive it is. Rather than being vertically set, or even smaller, it kind of just sits there on the bottom and makes a mess of the coverart.

This is essentially my same problem with the Vinland Saga omnibus cover. It's not really the font choice, but how it detracts from the artwork. Seven Seas choice of this font is just simply too big; that's my only gripe.

Well, I'm not a big fan of that kind of cover for something so awesome, but at least the hardcover coverart are fantastic.

So out of curiosity does anyone know if the SOUL EATER SOUL ART book is made in a wide format or if its something like was the case with a handful of Gintama's volumes? (where the cover image was wide format but the way the book *actually* works is the same as most others)
