Maka Albarn (Japanese: Maka Arubān) is Soul's meister and main female protagonist. She is a young but dedicated student who takes after her mother, another prodigious meister. However, her relationship with her father Spirit (a.k.a. Death Scythe) is incredibly strained due to his constant flirtations with women, leading her parents to divorce. As such, Maka was originally obsessed with turning Soul Eater into a Death Scythe that would surpass her father. She makes a good team with Soul, but is prone to nagging and violent outbursts whenever Soul does something foolish. When in danger, however, Maka does everything she can to keep Soul out of harm's way.

Her skills as a scythemeister allow her to perform the Witch-Hunt Slash (魔女狩り, Majo Gari, lit. "Witch Hunter" wink and Demon-Hunt Slash (魔神狩り, Majin Gari, lit. "Demon Hunter" wink with ease when resonating with Soul, but when Soul is infected by black blood, Maka risks slipping into madness if they can't control it. She eventually develops the Anti-Demon Wavelength inherited from her mother which repels the effects of insanity. She is adept at Soul Perception, which allows her to detect souls and judge their strength; she even has the potential to sense witches' souls even when they suppress their magic. After turning Soul into a Death Scythe, Maka gains the ability to fly with the angelic wings offered by her Grigori soul.
