| So, they're literally working on this as a new season of the show, essentially even keeping the same cast and staff? I have nothing against it, although the character designs of the reboot still make it look like a regular seasonal battlel shonen. |

| Wait, they revealed previous Shaman King's character design here when the character haven't even appear on the manga yet (Aside of namedrops on Super Star manga)? Does this means they will add anime-original scenes/plots for the anime as well? Edit: Nevermind, just now remembered that anime scene also happened in the manga as well lol. |

| @MahiaErebeaNegi Anime adaptations often include formal appearances or references to characters and events earlier than in the manga, because they adapt and frame a significant portion of the material, while the original chapters were released in "real time". This is partly similar to how Peter Jackson adjusted some things in The Hobbit to better convey its connection to LOTR, which did not yet exist at the time of the book's release. |
