    Not Just Jojos bizarre adventure for kids despite its obvious influences

    Shaman king is a very good shonen anime that takes inspiration from Jojos bizarre adventure. Even though it was dubbed by 4kids back in 2003 it was a very dark series. I remember watching the anime and reading the manga when I was 10 years old and being fascinated with the shows spiritual and religious concepts along with being mildly disturbed by one of the villains. Not just a kids show if you like JoJo or yuyu hakusho or any other super natural shonen give this a watch also don't watch the dub the only thing good about that was the opening.

    Thought it was okay at first but then got better

    This show is pretty interesting but I have seen a few episodes and they were cool. But I didn't like Yu-Gi-Oh but at least the creators of it came up with something a little better but still no contest. I think Yoh is really cool! I like his style and his cool relaxed attitude! This show sort of reminds me of Medabots almost except this is ghosts instead of robots. But on the other side the spirits and the action on the show is pretty cool and all. But my other most favorite shows for the Fox Box is probably Sonic X along with Kirby: Right Back At Ya! and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Shaman King follows the adventures of a 13-year-old shaman and his teammate a samurai warrior spirit, who traverse the world fighting evil spirits and misguided shamans on their journey to be the next Shaman King. I now think the show is pretty good I just needed to see more of the show in order to get the idea of it.

    User Rating: 7/10

    BOTTOM LINE: NOT BAD AT FIRST BUT BETTER AFTER!

    Digimon but with spirits

    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.

    Shaman king is the best!!!

    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!

    COOL

    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"
