Shaman King, a series created by
Hiroyuki Takei, began way back in 1998 and has been running ever since its debut in
Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump; and now
Kodansha's Shonen Magazine Edge. THe series was described, by
Viz Media, as follows;
"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. Tapping the supernatural swordfighting powers of samurai ghost Amidamaru, Yoh fights Bokuto no Ryu, a sword-wielding gang member. But an even more dangerous opponent is stalking Yoh and Manta — a Chinese shaman who wants to possess Amidamaru." The series has had huge success since its creation, including a successful anime series and has continued to excite and surprise even after 20 years!
