Now here’s where things could get interesting… Takei didn’t release a Shaman King Flowers chapter last month. This month we get a shorter chapter. Could he be working on something? Could a new Shaman King anime be announced at the end of the stream in 3 days from now? Are they testing the waters to see how many views these streams will get to see if there is enough interest for an anime?
This should be interesting…
