THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The Icemen are cool I guess (no pun intended)

Only Pino from the group stood out though. And hey, the anime decided to give him a somewhat interesting personality. Not a bad episode but was I do feel a bit underwhelmed.

Barely watched the episode, busy day at work so will give out the score after I actually do watch it start to finish but I am very impressed they split it into two episodes, even the old anime (if I remember correctly) did it in one episode

EDIT : Yeah this was pretty good. I do not have that much to say about it, but I personalyl loved it. The fact it wasn't rushed at all is great, the fact we got a bit of Fausts amazing new theme was amazing - hope more of it gets to play next week.

The only real issues with the epsiode mostly come from the fact Faust's scenes up to the point got adapted horribly.

It does seem to come a bit out of nowhere when in this version - it was never established that Faust is a a complete madman who does so much drugs he does not even feel any pain and has a tendency to live operate on himself whenever he gets damaged. But well, honestly the first 10 episodes of this series were basically a different show, let's just enjoy that it's good now.

Chocolove getting randomly picked on by the Icemen team lol, poor guy. Then Yoh's big, long, thick new sword form ... even if it's for a short time tho.

And Faust with his new powers, i always liked his character and his wife's tits ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

HOHO, so Faust now comes up in the next match No. 3 together with Yoh and Ryu: the Icemen vs. Team Funbari Hot Springs. And Icemen is a team you do not want to belittle with their overwhelming Oversouls, but more like belittling Yoh will do them dirty.

Haha Horohoro getting the short end of the stick from Anna and Hao, but the true spectatorship lies with Yoh and how he utilizes [i]Ultra Senji Ryakketsu/i] with Amidamaru and his new 2-parter Oversoul dubbed Spirit of Sword.

When it comes of Faust's involvement, the action seems a lot spliced and some hits and misses towards the manga that's lost in translation. But it's easy for Anna to con Faust into joining them, and this way, he can go all out against the Icemen with his Mephisto E Oversoul.

OK episode...just hang in there.

So much talking, for rushing the hell out of the earlier fights they are sure taking time to adapt all the boring parts after we left the OG line behind............

Shaman King isnt about the flashy long fights, it's literally about the story and ideologies of the characters. These "boring" parts are here to give us some idea of how the characters think and to give us some room to breathe. Don't expect too many long fights from this, because the fights are not the point of the Series.

Shaman King is less about the fights, and more about the characters, and that becomes much more apparent as the series goes on.

The soundtrack that played during the spirit of sword part was nice. I liked the way that part was done

Icemen's leader is the definition of salt. Yoh simply said his group would win and the dude was unable to let it go.

Nice episode. More Faust is always welcome and the OST was fantastic once again.

Spirit of Sword looks fucking sick. Poor Chocolove got abused by the Icemen lmao. Interesting, Ren also has something like Futsu no mitama. Faust's goal has been achieved, so now he can devote his life to Funbari Onsen, Anna with the big brain plays. Eliza though ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), Faust has plenty good reasons to show off his wife. Mephisto E looks hot and sick. Looking forward to the next episode.

Spirit of Sword looked great! But I really liked Faust's transformation after fulfilling his dream.

Both Spirit of Sword and Mephisto E are always my favorite oversoul from Shaman King. I really like how Faust fights and protecting Eliza, as well as, how Anna always thinks about how to gain money from the onsen.

Yoh with a new transformation in the sword is she made Yoh run out of mana and an interesting sword that's good that Amidamaru has an evolution function that fit well in the plot.

It's a shame then that about halfway in the character are just kinda okay at best

They're definitely improving, and that Faust part is pretty great, the opponents' team is ridiculous and will regret making fun of their motivations.

Icemen; a Nordic-Celtic-Slavic team up. But at least they have a shared motif unlike that time BoZ teamed up with Peyote.

"We'll probably win either way" big words, and Yoh backs them up with Amidamaru.

Over Soul Spirit of Sword!

Where did you get dem other legs from Faust? Oh...Frankensteiny....of course

Anna got Eliza back for Faust, so he'd be on their team.

Over Soul Mephisto E!

A lot of talking very little action. But Elizabeth becoming a giant was unexpected.
