'Shaman King' reboot series now on Netflix

The new "Shaman King" is here!

The anime series reboot premiered on Netflix on August 9.

"Shaman King" is set to adapt all 35 volumes of the manga by Hiroyuki Takei, which was serialized in Japan's Weekly Shonen Jump starting 1998 until it was cancelled in 2004.

The story was first adapted into an anime in 2001, but the show eventually deviated from the manga's storyline as the chapters were still being serialized, resulting to a completely different conclusion.

"Shaman King" follows the story of Yoh Asakura as he competes in a semi-millennial tournament to become the Shaman King. It previously aired in GMA Network. —JCB, GMA News
