* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Yoh. With a few exceptions, not much seems to bother this guy. Not even {{spoiler|being ''killed'' (so that he can get some literal [[Training
* [[Abuse Is Okay When Its Female On Male]]: If Yoh treated Anna the way she treated him and his friends it wouldn't be "training", it would be treated as physical and emotional abuse.▼
▲* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Yoh. With a few exceptions, not much seems to bother this guy. Not even {{spoiler|being ''killed'' (so that he can get some literal [[Training From Hell]], though he wasn't informed of this beforehand)}}
** Well except for that one time when {{spoiler|Faust ''dissected'' Manta, who at the time was his only friend. That being said, though, he managed to snap out of that funk after a volume or so.}}
* [[Broken Base]]: In regard to Pirika: [[Ensemble Darkhorse|loved by some]], [[The Scrappy|hated by others.]]
Line 11 ⟶ 10:
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: Say what you will about the dub itself, but [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qLl145FqQg the opening] kicks ass.
* [[Cult Classic]]: While moderately popular back home, it is has a small fan base in the US, especially after the [[4Kids! Entertainment]] dub
▲* [[
* [[Evil Is Sexy]]: And ''[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Hao]]?!''
* [[Ho Yay]]: To say nothing of Ryu's obvious feelings toward [[Cute Shotaro Boy|Lyserg]], many of the guys fall into this. Notable cases being Ren/Horohoro, Amidamaru/Mosuke, Hao's devoted followers, and some subtext between Manta and Yoh. The omake introduces some with Lyserg and a new character, Hudson. [[Fridge Brilliance]] on the creator's part, especially if you've seen the latest Sherlock movies.
Line 21:
** However, despite a number of name changes (Ryu/Rio, Manta/Mortimer, Over Soul/Spirit Control, etc.), they retained the original name for a shaman's spirit power, "Furyoku", while the ''VIZ'' translation of the manga changed it to the more generic "Mana"
** Combined with [[Ear Worm]] : Sha-man KIIIIING. Fits for any 3 syllable TV show. (Out-Law STAAAR! I-T CROOOOWD! FA-THER TEEED!)
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]:
** Manta's vivisection at the hands of Faust VIII, made even worse in the manga.
** When Spirit of Fire opens its mouth especially since it's normally [[The Blank]] with two eyes and markings, opening up to a wipe toothy maw.
* [[Retroactive Recognition]]: [[The Book of Mormon (
* [[The Scrappy]]: Pirika, Tamao and Chocolove.
** Opacho, big time. Also, the X-Laws, particularly Lyserg.
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]: In Funbari No Uta, 7 years has passed since the SF and Hana is 6. This means that Hana was born 1 year after the SF was over and Anna was only age 15 during the SF. I wonder when was he [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/shaman_king/v09/c077/18.html conceived.]
** This is largely because there was the very real fact that [[You Don't Want to Die
** Uh, are we forgetting Mr. [[Unfortunate Implications]], himself, [[Uncle Tomfoolery|Chocolove?]]
*** And on that note, Ryu knew they could all trust Chocolove, since he looked so much like Muscle Punch, the one black member in his gang, and the only other black person he knew. To be perfectly fair, though, that really is in line with the kind of character [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|Ryu is.]]
Line 38:
*** Most African-American characters or those with similar heritage recieved the same treatment throughout the manga.
