The power of the Kishin goes beyond human understanding. It is evolution itself! Shinigami and you at DWMA have watched over and protected the world by acting as a deterrent to that power. DWMA's intent can be summed up in one expression: "Maintain the Status Quo." But time moves forward. Isn't it logical that we grow and advance along with it. It's only natural. Doctor Stein... do you really want a monotonous world... where nothing ever changes?
~ Medusa Gorgon explaining her intentions to Dr. Stein as she mocks him.
Fear is a driving force and a creator of order. Because of this, the amount of fear that exists in the world far exceeds the amount of danger that is present. At times, there is an excess of fear flowing from every human being.
~ Medusa Gorgon's viewing of fear.

Medusa Gorgon is a major antagonist of the anime series Soul Eater. She is the mother of Crona, who is also the crown jewel in her master plan: the destruction of the current world order to get the planet back on track. She is the middle of the three Gorgon sisters, younger than Arachne and older than Shaula. Lacking empathy for others, along with a twisted sense of love for those who are like her in personality, Medusa views everyone as a potential specimen to experiment on or as a tool to suit her purpose.

She was voiced by Houko Kuwashima in the Japanese version of the anime, and Luci Christian in the English dubbed version.

What Makes Her Pure Evil?[]

Manga[]

  • During her time of being Crona's mother, she forced them to kill their pet bunny, but when they refused, she would lock them up in a room as she leaves them to either starve or often get beaten up by Ragnarok (which was implied to be psychological abuse indirectly). This was done three times before she finally succeeds in breaking them as Crona and Ragnarok kill their pet.
  • She unleashed Kishin Asura via an attack on the Death Weapon Meister Academy (DWMA) all so she could observe the powers of the god that could end the world.
  • After being defeated, she took refuge by possessing the body of a young girl and feigning allegiance to the DWMA, intent on killing the girls' older sister Arachne and taking her body as well so that she could continue operating from within, happily manipulating the violent conflict to further her own goals.
  • When Maka succeeds in emotionally breaking through to Crona and getting them to turn on their wicked mother, Medusa utterly shatters her child's mind by playing the victim card and faking the facade of a loving parent, even dying with a smile when Crona finally snaps and kills her as she knew that she would still be leaving behind a broken and insane Crona when she died that would carry out her goal of destroying the world after her death, with nothing but interest in observing catastrophe motivating her.
  • While she apologised to Crona for everything she did to them when the two were having dinner, her apology was transparently deceptive and insincere, which Crona sees right through, so this is not a prevention.

Anime[]

  • It's very likely that she holds no care or concern towards her own sister Shaula Gorgon, who is also Pure Evil, and never felt any remorse of her death after the events of Soul Eater Not!.
  • She mistreated Crona the same way she did in the manga in order to drive them into insanity and make them into her own personal pawn, only she forced him to kill their pet dragon instead of their pet bunny.
  • She stepped on Eruka in frog form and threatened to squish her to death if she refused to free Prisoner 13 from the Witch Prison.
    • She also took quite a lot of sadism doing so as after Eruka transformed back to normal, Medusa told her to turn back into a frog because she liked how her frog form felt on her foot.
  • She callously admits her intent to abandon Crona after feeling they had failed as an experiment before once again manipulating them into unleashing the Kishin Asura.
  • She drove Professor Franken Stein into insanity to the point where he attacked his own allies before Medusa herself fatally wounded Crona for getting in her way, even dying smugly remarking the world is doomed to Asura as they were dying.

Trivia[]

  • Medusa Gorgon, alongside her sister Shaula Gorgon are the only two Soul Eater villain to be Pure Evil.
