In a world where shamans communicate with the dead and call forth the power of legendary spirits to defeat their enemies in both body and soul, Yoh is a teenager with the ultimate ambition: to become the Shaman King, the one and only shaman who may commune with the Great Spirit and help remake the world for the better. At Yoh's side is Anna, his coach, fiancée, and a powerful medium in her own right. Sure, it'd be nice if Yoh had a little more time to train and mature... but the Shaman Fight is only held once every 500 years, so he's going to have to grow up quick! This volume corresponds to volumes 31-33 of the original release, featuring updated translation and lettering, back in print more than 20 years after its initial release!

Yoshiko is a hopefully clueless high school girl. Her rock-paper-scissors strategy is rock. She somehow gets zeroes on multiple-choice tests. And she has an often-nearly-fatal weakness for bananas.
