Will there still be more shaman king manga in the future

I'm not sure, but I hope so.

I don't see why not. They have published 224 chapters already, and it is out on a weekly basis. I did not hear anything about this manga being stopped. What gave you the idea that it will not be done anymore?

Are they continuing Shaman King? I only watched the anime, and figured that was all the story was. Did they follow a similar story, and if so did the manga continue past it?

I wonder why the anime didnt continue. I read one volume of the Shaman King jst because I loved the anime so much (I dont read manga, but had to go out and buy a volume of Shaman King because I was obsessed). If they are continuing it, I dont see why I wouldnt read it every week.

well i dont think the anime followed the manga that well and one of the admins said that shaman king managa will be updated so yer its not finished yet

I wonder how much different it could be? Was there even the shaman tournament thing that the entire anime was based on winning?

Very different. Manga and anime are same until they get to Doby village (not sure about spelling, but you know the place). After ta ht they have totally different stories. Manga is much better and darker.

Cool, What chapter does the manga start to be different? Because I would definitely consider reading the alternate story.

Not exactly sure, about 15th volume or something like that.

There will definitely be so much more mangas, according to my Japanese friend, there are about 30-35ish... I can't entirely remeber and I saw some of the ones that he had online and they were totally not like the anime... The anime is so rated G that it sucks... So for those who have seen the anime, sorry to disappoint you guys but that's not going to be it... Just like what some of you have said, the anime hasn't been totally true to the manga... And for one I definitely believe that the manga is so much better than the anime... The fights are just retarded and the storyline seemed to have been rushed, it's like another Yu Yu Hakusho... If you've seen it, it was totally rushed in the end... Once again, according to my friend, there is a really crappy reason to this... But anywho, I just thought that I'd throw that out there... Hopefully someone will check this out... Also I want to know if any of you still collect the manga, there are 11 english ones right now and I'm trying to sell my first 10... If you're interested or know someone who might be, let me know... Thanks

I disagree with you. The anime may have been a bit geared for kids, but it wasnt crappy at all. The only bad part was the ending, but it seems like that is how most anime ends. In comparison to the manga, not many people think the anime is as good. To manga people, anime always seems to be second place. I personally enjoyed the funny childish moments of Shaman King and consider it to be one of my favorite anime. The fact that I enjoyed it just as much as teen or R rated anime means that it doesnt suck just because it was G rated. I dont care what the rating is, as long as I enjoy it. And I could care less about your Japanese friend, the internet holds all of this information. And just because hes Japanese doesnt make his opinion more credible or valuable.

Well I'm glad that you have your own opinion and that you don't just take what others tell you... Kudos to you... But your opinion in concern of the matter of what's better between mangas and animes are just as credible or valuable as my friend's; meaning they are either great or sucks...

Now that being said here's a question for you... Have you read at least 4 of the volumes of the Shaman King Mangas and then Compared them to the Anime?...

I have done both and believe me, I watched the show before the manga was introduced in englsih form and I liked it at first... The problem is, it was as dry as toast... yes there's the comic relief but it wasn't enough to cut it... I then bought the manga as soon as it came out and this was during the show was on the air still and man I was greatly disappointed... Now that's my opinion on both the manga and the anime... Also for your info, I saw some of the manga in Japanese in the internet (because it holds a lot of informtation) and it looks amazing and those were the ones that were never shown on TV the other ending...

If you want an anime that really rocks both in anime and manga (and if you're interested in something funny) try Onepiece...

The show was no where close to being G rated as I mentioned, I'ts called "Exagerating"... I've seen shows that were of this rating and would consider them masterpieces... Therefore don't think that I am just nother biased person who only sees what I want to see in this "one-sided" world... I try to see both in different perspectives... I read and watch... Do you?

Finally:
Back in highschool, in english class, reading novels are a part of the curriculum and during those times a movie of the novel would also be shown in class... Many looked forward to the movie due to the fact that it did not require a lot of effort so sit, watch, listen and reason... In college (and in my own experience), reading is the requirement... movies are to be seen during leisure time as part of the learning experience, but never the source... Apparenly it's more professional that way...

hi,
from what I've known, the manga itself already finished in Japan with 32 Vol.
Can't wait for NC to continuing on this manga..

The manga has 33 volumes( only 32 published, they said that if sales of the volumes go well it's gonna be published). After vol31 they decided to stop it so vol32-33 are quite faster in terms of plot. You can find until vol31 infrench or vol27 in english. I don't think it's possible to find even scans for 33.

please someone please tell me where can i download SH volume 31-32 please,please tell me

BTW. There have been rumors that creator and artist
Hiroyuki Takei would finish the Shaman King saga
with a final volume this year
But now it is CONFIRMED! As per press information
at a French Anime Convention, volume 33 will be released this year
with a book of over 280 or more pages It may be the proper ending!
