    Ah, Shaman King. This was your typical 'run-of-the-mill' fighting shounen series. As someone who does like the genre, I found it reasonably enjoyable.

    As for why the anime adaptation ended/was shorter than most, it simply suffered the same fate as many before it and after, declining television ratings that led to cancellation. The manga itself became less and less popular as well. I still remember Shounen Jump stating that they wouldn't bother releasing the final volume if the interest wasn't there. They eventually did.

    I was wondering why the story seemed different between the 2, they both wanted to end it pretty quickly, they could have extended quite a bit
