Oh man, Ruka is a tough girl with that intimidating presence and talent of hers. This is easily one of Hana's tougher challenges yet and it's just the second episode.

Hell of a stylish battle too. I knida like the amount of emotions they poured into this. Hana is also someone not to be underestimated and he has tons of potential.

This is what I wanted the original reboot to be. 100% faithful to the manga without missing every single frame. Nice, very nice. I think it will continue like that for the rest episodes.

Not gonna lie, I love the character design of this Alumi chick but so far they are copying/recreating the same main cast with the same dynamic OG Shaman King had. Kinda lazy, I must say.

Also I'm kinda lost with the dates, at what age did Anna give birth to Hana? I remember Shaman King had an episode where Yoh and Anna apparently "slept together" before the Shaman Tournament so I'm now curious.

@SouthRzVa It was exactly at that night, so Anna gave birth 9 months after that day (at age 16, if I'm not mistaken)

Which caracter is same as from the old cast?
Hana is total oposite of Yoh, he has some Anna in him, but they're much diferent.
Alumi totaly different, she is Hana's fiance like Anna but that makes sence since Hana must continue the Asakura Bloodline, so who's better pick then Annas best student?
Yohane and Luca resembles Ren and Jun, but they're different, you'll see.
Ren's kid will surprise you the most probably.

- lol even if Tamao told him to not use his power, in a life or death situation she should understand
- more fights, this time between Hana (lol name) and Yohane and his sister
- Hana sure had trouble, and seems like he really would have died if not for the mysterious girl saving him
- the daughter of Silva and trained by Anna the Itako herself, she calls herself Anna the 3rd Itako and... Hana's fiance lol
- well she looks like fun so why not? :D

just like the previous season, i enjoyed it more as a kid and was disapointed to watch it as an adult ... i wonder if this new generation (which just like Naruro/Boruto, has a lot of the similarities, like Anna with Anna3rd and Yoh with Hana...i mean he even keeps Amidamaru) will make me any more interested or if i'll end up giving up half way
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices)

TBH, Tamao grew up to be pretty HAWT and cute, LOL.

.

Also, Anna the 3rd, LOL, is actually pretty cute. Dude should be glad he got a cutie as his fiance, instead of someone like his mom... I can already imagine who (Anna and Yoh) was the "control" during SEGGs...

The intro to Funbari Onsen, which is now regulated by proprietress Tamao, it sure as hell looks convincing. But Hana could not tell her that he's been using Amidamaru to fight against Yohane, which is defintely a red flag. The 3 Hana-gumi hostesses are just laxing in the inn after the Shaman Fight being hired by Tamao, whom coincidently were rivals before. At the same time, Luca fends revenge for their alternate Asakura family line, just because they've been ignored by Hao, they're gunning for him for real. While Tamao is out to Kyoto, Luca keeps an eye on Hana, which he easily falls into her trap after Amidamaru realizes him being chased by both guardian dogs Shinden and Raiden, avenging for Yohane's revenge.

Luca's Amaterasu vs. Hana's Demon Helmet, it's the battle of Over Souls...except that Hana doesn't really care much for the former at all, using violence to deal with him, the same way that he dealt with Yohane. Only except that Luca will not accept anything else than defeat, and her secret of Yohane's support from behind with his Moon Halbert, even a sneak attack like this will not bring him down, even with the combined power of both Yohane and Luca. The entity that saved him: Anna the Itako 3rd, using her silverware to fend against both Asakura, because Hana is her assigned fiancé.

The lengths to defend each other like their beloved, this is the Shaman King trait: tying to a beloved.

Yoh, I expect but Anna gave up on being the proprietress of a hot spring? Tamao has had to raise their kid and business all on her own, damn.
Hana was chatting up his distant cousin lol
despite being Asakuras they remind me more of the Tao siblings.
Ruka/Luca was raised for the moment of carving a path for her brother. Their creepy dad (dressed like the original Hao in the Heian period) is already incarnated though, so can Hao even use him as a vessel? (well he's the Shaman King now, but he is rewriting the rules of reincarnation in his limitations? since he's bound by the rules previous Shaman Kings enacted like YVS). Maybe their dad isn't even an Asakura but a religious fanatic who made the whole thing up.
Yoh and his friends had to train in hell so shit like what Hana faced is only a flesh wound in this universe.

Combining the powers of a Japanese Itako and the Silver Arms of the Native American patch, Anna's student Alumi saves her self-declared fiancé Hana. Silva's daughter is very much a Genki Gyaru version Anna.

I don't understand, Arumi is gyaru or just a return to the old image of Americans in anime as energetic and arrogant blondes?

@winddevil1 I haven't watched Boruto and don't know how much it updated the setting. But in this case, the author uses Flowers as an opportunity to rewrite the ending and create the story he really wants after the original manga ended in disputes between him and the publisher/studio.

Ruka is actually pretty... And she's actually blush when Hana said he's pity at Yohane...

Another fiance character appear... And she's Silva daughter... That made her the patch...

I kinda tired seeing Hana type of character... He's like a most of shonen protagonist... Being hyper and optimist or something like that. His Dad actually unique... Yoh actually so calm..
