  1. I don’t think, that it will be very good, when it really stays close to the Manga.

    In my eyes, shaman king gained a lot of it’s popularity, through the really good Anime. The Manga…with the start of the second Round of the turnier…it starts to go down, really fast.

    Espacially the end:
    – We get to know, that the whole competion for the Shaman king started…because the Patch were visited by Aliens. Really? Aliens?
    – At First Yo wants to become Shaman King, but then he says, Hao is better…maybe his reason for this descision was, that he learned that he will die and his body will be the medium for the great Spirit.
    – And…Hao becomes good…becuase the ghost of his Mother gives him a slap, that was overdue…come on.

    What i want to say is: The closer the manga drew to his end, the more the quality was going down.

    And then they made a Sequel. Called “Flowers” and the “Super Star”. For me: Flowers completely killed the Series with it second competition, which made the original turnier obsolete and is unlikable characters. And “Super Star” burried the series. No contination of FLowers and despite being made by the original creator, it feels like a diffrent mangaka made them.
