About Shaman King Specials

Looking for background on Shaman King Specials? This action, adventure and supernatural series by Xebec (2002) starts out like this. At its core: Throughout the broadcast of Shaman King, many shorts (usually referred to as Shaman King omake and TV specials) were made on special days of the year related to spirits and the like. The omake were short stories that were made for humorous effect.

Also worth knowing: Apparently, all of the omake fit into the story before the Shaman Struggle 2nd round. Documents of the Shaman Fight was shown with a New Year's omake as well. The TV Specials were aired after specific points of the story as well as on holidays.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.
