Shaman King

i started watching this show a few years ago, and it was my daily morning fix. I really thought the idea of bringing a load of cool characters, new and old together was an excellent idea. I also quite liked voice-acting & plots, as it brings back the olden days (2003-2005)and introduces them to young children. I also thought that the characters were quite good, and the creators of this show (whoever they are) added some really interesting traits to the classic characters eg. Morty becoming a helper like Toad (Mario Game Series), and Anna & other females, Tammy & Millie becoming Shaman Queen was really good. Another thing was that they added some new characters, eg Rio who was an annoying version of the main character (Yo or whatever it's spelled)! The side stories were also rather well thought out. So, to conclude a very good and interesting series!

I hope no one here is judging it by the English version... they completely changed it, removing all Japanese references, changing the character's names, and making it for little kids. Certain character's names stayed to same, such as Yoh Asakura, Amidamaru, and Anna, but many of them changed. Manta Oyamada became Morty Manta. Ryu became Rio. Lien Tao, who is Chinese, became Lenny... who is British. Horohoro became Trey. An entire storyline got cut from the English version... a storyline that explains how Yoh gets his sword. In the English version he just kind of has it suddenly, and Rio suddenly has a spirit ally. All Japanese writing, even on signs in the distant background, were either changed to English or whited out. Thankfully, 4Kids has released an uncut version on DVD, though they kept the English names.

Yoh is a Shaman, he moves to Tokyo, because of the unusually high number of Ghosts. while hanging out in the Cemetary one night he meets fellow 7th grader Morty, Morty is special because, as with Yoh he can see ghosts, but unlike Yoh, Morty fears them. Yoh is looking for a spirit partner and finds one in the 600 year old Samurai spirit Amidamaru. By fusing with Amidamaru, Yoh Uses his powers to fight evil spirits and evil Shaman's all the while training for the chance to be crowned "Shaman King"

hi, i just want to leave a comment ^_^, I was just wondering if shaman king episode 64 is the last... because I took a lot of my time watching this anime and then me and my friends were waiting for the moment between Anna and Yoh, but if episode 64 is the last, I'm really disappointed because it left a lot of questions, and then when i saw the manga written by takei, there seems to be an exciting part of Anna and Yoh having Hana Asakura, but takei wrote 200+ chapters and its really far from the incomplete anime. But you know I still enjoy Shaman king fights and many of the parts are funny... ^_^ but the thing is it is not fair for us people to not know what will happen and of course we will be all glad to watch it. Please I really need you to complete this anime. thanks! goodluck!

Good series that begins with a boy who sees ghosts and ends with clashes between demigods to decree the fate of the world. I'm sorry that the series didn't have a real ending but was cut off towards the end but luckily the manga exists.
