SynopsisYoh Asakura is a shaman--one of the gifted few who, thanks to training or natural talent, can channel spirits that most people can't even see. With the help of his fiance, Anna, Yoh is in training for the ultimate shaman sports event: the "Shaman Fight in Tokyo," the once-every-500-years tournament to see who can shape humanity's future and become the Shaman King. But unfortunately for Yoh, every shaman in the world is competing for the same prize...
The later serialized one-shots, Mappa Douji, Relax and the short manga, Funbari no Uta are also included in the volumes of Shaman King.
The side story Funbari no Uta, which lasts for five chapters, is set seven years after the end of the manga series and features Hana Asakura and his journey with his uncle Ryu to gather up the 5 elemental warriors
The side story Mappa-Douji shows Hao's childhood in his original life. It follows the story of Hao in feudal Japan through the death of his mother at the hands of humans, meeting his first spirit friend, and developing his mind reading powers and other advanced shamanic abilities. The side story Relax follows Hao gathering followers for the tournament years before it started. |

It is a perfect manga with a very interesting story. It is different to the anime and it is much better.
ps Now Shaman King KangZengBang is published and it is another manga. I don't know why the number of chapters here is changed.

By the same creator, of Shaman king. If you enjoyed Shaman King, then Butsu Zone also has all the adventure,supernatural, and spiritual qualities you're looking for, as well as humour.
Both series are from the same author/artist and have similar supernatural, action-packed, humorous situations in it. They also deal with some characters which feature in BOTH the series.

Both series have main characters who accumulate friends and allies on the basis of their unique categorization (shamans in Shaman King, mafia members in Reborn!). They also have, after a certain point, battle after battle and the accompanying need to improve their abilities to accomodate their opponents' abilities. Reborn! doesn't have Shaman King's tournament structure, but the successive showdowns and increasing danger of their enemies mimics it anyway.
