From award-winning Hiroyuki Takei, Shaman King was produced as a hit anime in 2001. When he takes a shortcut through a cemetery, Manta Oyamada meets a strange kid with headphones — surrounded by ghosts. The kid is the teenage shaman Yoh Asakura.

But an even more dangerous opponent is stalking Yoh and Manta — a Chinese shaman who wants to possess Amidamaru.Details Books As Shaman King, Vol. 1: A Shaman in Tokyo (Shaman King #1)

I recommend this Manga to those that like a bit of comedy in there stories.Shaman King is one of those rare instances where the show is better than the manga. I worshiped the anime as a ten-year-old; I couldn't get enough of it. When I read the manga a few years later, however, I wasn't as moved. Manta (Morty in the show, a name playing off the word "mortician") takes a shortcut through a cemetery at night and meets Yoh, a shaman. The two inexplicably become friends and Manta follows Yoh on his adventures to become the shaman king. Unfortunately, what detracts from the
I've read the entire series but I'm too lazy to tag each one. I loved the storyline and the characters (Yoh, especially. Always have since I first saw the anime version. Always will!). The story had a heart; the artwork was nice. It's full of action with just enough dozes of comedy to break the monotony. I enjoyed it thoroughly and would have given it a 5-star rating if it weren't for the ending which was kind of meh. Shame really 'coz it was a fun and addictive read for my first ever shonen
Shaman King is the first anime I ever watched and this happened to be the first manga Ive read too. But in all honestly I didnt enjoy this as much as the anime. Yoh is charming like always but I still think Im used to watching him that its not the same but I still loved him a lot. The biggest problem is Manta in this manga because his reactions look so fake and the art where he shouts is just horrible. I enjoyed the parts which didnt appear in the anime like saving children etc. but I dont know
First, I started with anime, quite a long time ago. And ever since I started living in London, I promised myself that one day I would read manga. I must say, it was as good as I remember. The story is about the young shaman, named Yoh, who is coming to Tokyo to train himself to become more and more powerful. There he meets Manta, a small boy, who becomes his friend. From now on, they are having numerous adventures, finding out more about shamans and their role and abilities, and meeting new
Shaman King (1998) is one of the best fantasy and religion manga of the 90s written and drawn by Hiroyuki Takei. Especially the well round characters like the love triangle between the twin brothers Yoh and Hao Asakura with Anna Kyoyama. Finally, to let you know that a sequel of the manga is available called Shaman King Flowers!
What would you do if you are taking a shortcut home and see a boy talking to a ghost and you realize you can see them too. Well that's how things went in the first few pages of Shaman King.After the first pages of these books I wa hooked. I love how the action comes so fast in the first book.I really like some of the quotes from these books. A few examples are "Everything will work out" and"don't be scared I got you." I know that manga's are not for everyone but if you like comedy, action and
