The action manga bestseller returns, in 600-page editions featuring a remastered translation and new cover art by creator Hiroyuki Takei! Dive into the classic Shonen Jump adventure whose world of mystical spirits and bewitching battles inspired the classic anime. This volume corresponds to Vol. 13-15 of the original release, featuring updated translation and lettering, back in print more than 20 years after its initial release! In a world where shamans communicate with the dead and call forth the power of legendary spirits to defeat their enemies in both body and soul, Yoh is a teenager with the ultimate ambition: to become the Shaman King, the one and only shaman who may commune with the Great Spirit and help remake the world for the better. But the road to this pinnacle of spiritual power runs through the Shaman Fight, a gauntlet of battles with rival mediums who call forth dizzying powers from the world of the dead in their own bids for the crown. At Yoh's side is Anna, his coach, fiancée, and a powerful medium in her own right. Sure, it'd be nice if Yoh had a little more time to train and mature...but the Shaman Fight is only held once every 500 years, so he's going to have to grow up quick!

With the Shaman Fight now underway, Yoh and his friends board a flight to America with the help of the Patch, the tribe of shamans who officiate the tournament. All entrants must report to the Patch village by the beginning of the Shaman Fight...but just moments before their expected arrival, the Patch make a shocking announcement: they'll need to find the village on their own. That was bad enough...but their airplane disappears mid-flight, leaving them hurtling toward the ground!

After Hao is crowned the Shaman King, Yoh and his friends fight their way through the Plants of the Lost Continent of Mu, guarded by Hao's allies among the Patch tribe, to defeat him. But, his mana spent after a flurry of harsh fights, Faust falls in battle. The Gandhara, on the other hand, have made their way to the heart of the Great Spirit, intent on entrusting Yoh and his friends with the Five Elemental Spirits.
