On the 4th of June, the final Shaman King fanbook was released. This post will cover all of the major sections in the book. As a result, there may be some spoilers. The specific contents of the pages will not be covered, so spoilers will be very light. The book takes place after the end of Chapter 300 in Kang Zeng Bang, and contains alot of recap. None of the content in this post will “ruin” the end of Shaman King if you haven’t read it, but there may be some spoilers. So, this is the last call, click the “Read the rest of this entry »” to see what’s in the book!
Pre Page 1:
First there is the poster. This is attached to the inside of the book. On the front side is EVERY Shaman File, to scale. On the backside is a the paymat for the Board Game (more info on this later). This poster can be easily removed, without damage.
Next is the sticker sheet. There are 27 stickers. They are Marco’s Glasses, Man.Ji.En, Matamune, Psycho Tamao, Baby Spirit of Fire, Amidamaru (ball mode), Mic (ball mode), Marco, Princess Hao, Demon Ryu, Bason (ball mode),Kororo, Conchi, Opacho (OS mode), Ponchi, Hao, Yoh, Ren, Chocolove, Horohoro, Lyserg, Ann, Jeann, Tamao, Sati, Dam-kororo, green ball spirit (forgot name, not important).
