SHAMAN KING

Shaman Yoh Asakura offers to help his new classmate Manta face a notorious thug with the aid of a legendary samurai spirit.

Yoh and Manta encounter the shaman Ren, who shows no mercy when fighting a punk. Furious at Ren's misuse of his powers, Yoh faces him in battle.

Anna tells Yoh about the new tournament to crown the next Shaman King. Ren's sister Jun challenges Yoh to a battle, with Amidamaru as the prize.

After possessing Ryu, Tokageroh takes Manta hostage. Yoh and Amidamaru fight him, but Tokageroh wields Harusame and they're at a disadvantage.

One of the Patch Officiants, Silva, unleashes his five animal spirits against Yoh to determine if he's worthy of participating in the Shaman Fight.

Now qualified for the tournament, Yoh faces his first opponent, Horohoro of Hokkaido, a proud Ainu shaman who can manipulate ice and snow.

Faust VIII, a necromancer who can manipulate corpses, enrages Yoh when he targets Manta for sadistic experimentation before their match.

With Ren as his next opponent, Yoh distances himself from Manta to ensure his friend's safety. Later, Yoh returns to Izumo to continue his training.
