As much as I Любовь Shaman King and all that good stuff. The Аниме seriously needs to be rebooted. It changed the storyline. It changed the personalities of some of the characters. The main character wasn't supposed to be your average shounen hero who just wants to kill the bad guy because apparently that's the only way. The bad guy himself wasn't supposed to act like he was Актёрское искусство in the anime. The Манга was way better,we actually got to see еще development and such in it over what we see in the anime. So if Ты ever wanna get into this series,read the manga. A lot of the Фаны like the Манга over the anime. That's really all I have to tell Ты before I go off into a rant about all the flaws I noticed. (Though it DID have funny moments in it. )
In my opinion the Манга for No.6 was far better than the anime. Ты get a far better feel for the relationship between Shion and Nezumi. Ты are left to understand Nezumi and why he is the way he is far more. It to me just felt far less rushed and easier to understand the motives behind the Аниме better.
Of course there is also the matter of Nezumi actually being called Nezumi and not крыса as he is in the English dub of the anime. Yes I know it is what Nezumi means. It's still irritating to me. :)
I tryed many times to read the Манга but it's boring because I like only action with comedy and Ты can't watch epic fight scenes in a book that's why i get mad when people say "IT'S CANON" to everything i'm like b**** were talking about the Аниме i don't care about the Манга but one good thing about Манга is it's the first step to my Избранное thing ANIME!
