I will try to make this brief. I know Soul Eater ended ages ago and I just
started watching it. I'm at season 3. I'm just curious about how they become
weapons? I know that one is born as a weapon, but what happens physically? I
might be overthinking it, but I am just curious.

How are weapons formed?


The so called _weapons_ are a artificial race, created due to inhumane
human/witch experimentation. We do not know how the actual physical
transformation happens. Nor how the experimentation ultimatetly led to this
_race_

These experiments known to create these _weapons_ was originally discovered by
Eibon and Death, whilst trying to find a way to create peace between the
humans and the witches. Due to the inhumane practices required to create such
demon weapons they decided to lock the exact steps away.

But as you learn later on in the story as well. Arachnid, with her spiders,
managed to obtain this information, and started her own experimentation.
Ultimatly leading to the race currently known as _Demon Weapons_
