After the announcement in June about the release of the new Shaman King series, where all the manga volumes will be fully animated and it was promised that this time it will have the right ending, it was inevitable not to remember how good it was to enjoy this anime with everything and the separation from the Original story. Here we will talk about Shaman King without spoiler, so continue reading calmly.

Before continuing, it usually happens in the anime, that they separate from the original story of the manga, either because they cancel the anime or the manga comes out once a month and the producers decide to continue a different story. This happened to me with Claymore, an anime that I enjoyed, but unfortunately was canceled and I have to read the manga which has an exquisite story and it is a pity that it is not animated. With Shaman King it happened, among many things, that the anime was on a par with the manga, but at a certain point they split up, finishing the anime first than the manga.

Many people were happy with the end of the anime and others were not. I enjoyed it, I was about 12 years old when I saw this anime and at that time it wasn't easy to get a manga to read, so what I was shown in the anime was enough. What is Shaman King about? This anime is about scary spirits... nah lie hahaha. Shaman King is the title for the winner of a tournament that takes place every 500 years, where Shamans compete to show who is the best and thus be able to choose to define the destiny of the world.

Created by Hiroyuki Takei, it was released in 2000 on Tokyo TV and a re-release was recently announced in April 2021. The manga has 285 chapters, grouped in 32 volumes, but what is a Shaman?

source

A Shaman is a person who manages to connect with the spirit world, that link between the world of the living and the dead. A Shaman's connection with the spirits is such that it allows them to take advantage of the spirits' abilities to do incredible things. The story begins with a young man named Yoh Asakura who discovers that he has the ability to see ghosts and meets Amidamaru, a samurai who will become his guardian spirit and they will fight together.

During the whole anime, we will see how the main character is getting to know other Shamans and their spirits, who will accompany him in an adventure that will have incredible battles and here I must make a stop, since being warriors who are possessed by spirits and that these offer him their power and abilities to fight, you will be able to make an idea that you will see many sequences of fight during everything in anime that will excite you completely. Of course, anime features drama, comedy and romance in a balanced way that will grab you right away.

Among all the characters in the anime, my favorite is Anna Kyoyama. She is a priestess and the main character's girlfriend. I love her personalization, serious and strict, she will really push the protagonist to the maximum to be the best of all and become the Shaman King. Because she is a priestess, she has a special weapon, the 1080's rosary, which holds an extraordinary power. Does Anna get to use all the power of this weapon? It's up to you to discover it during the anime.

If you have not yet seen this anime or read the manga, I highly recommend you do so, it is a very well-crafted story, full of unique characters and battles that will fill you with adrenaline. I recommend that you read the manga first, but if you are not a reader, it would be best to wait until April 2021 to enjoy the new edition, which will be faithful to the story that was told in the manga. Although you may be like me and go running to see the anime and enjoy an equally exquisite story.
