Do you believe in destiny? Then let there be light, because we’re reviving a podcast recorded in the past! Last year we recorded a retrospective of Hiroyuki Takei’s soulful battle manga Shaman King with Maxy Barnard to celebrate the series’ 20th anniversary. Computer problems have delayed the release of this episode for a little over half a year, but now we’re finally able to share it with you in all its glory! We discuss the themes and philosophy that makes Shaman King a timeless classic, and highlight what makes its characters and storytelling so memorable along the way. To wrap it up, we answer over a dozen Q&As, recounting the best and worst parts of the series, what makes Shaman King stand out compared to other shonen series, and whether it should still be considered a Shonen Jump classic among many others! But the biggest question of all is...will we sing the dub opening? You won’t need to look around you or look beyond for the answer - listen to us and we’ll tell all!
