Original Shaman King Manga – International Kodansha Editions comparison

With the new Kodansha Editions of the the original Shaman King manga being released around the world in both digital and print formats, there are some small differences between the volumes. This page should help highlight the differences of the volumes around the world. Previously we made a separate guide for comparing various Japanese editions of the manga (between Kodansha and Shueisha).

Some of this information is predictive and for some volumes which have not been released yet. This page will be updated once more information is available.

Below is an overview of the differences between the print and digital editions across regions:
