Wait, does Sequel manga Hana even has enough manga chapters to fill a single cour season?

Never thought I'd see the day we'd get a shaman king flowers anime. It's kinds weird that they're making an anime for a cancelled manga tho. The pacing should be better this time since flowers is a shorter series.

Yes five volume of a monthly manga series is enough to fill up a one hour season. If anything, they'll probably speed through the material since 12 episodes is a pretty tight limit to adapt everything.

I wonder if this means the reboot was popular enough to have a sequel greenlit.. or just following the tracks of hits like Dragonball, Naruto and Inuyasha.
I don't quite remember whether the Flowers manga has gotten far enough to establish the conflict of the story... so partial manga adaptation with anime original ending?

I also recall Shaman King Flowers having a premature, unsatisfying ending, so maybe this adaptation could be an opportunity for Takei to tell the rest of the story he had in mind, just like the original manga’s kanzenban edition allowed him to give the story a more satisfying (albeit still rushed) conclusion.

It had said ending, but then continued in Shaman King: The Super Star.

Flowers is actually only the first arc of the bigger SK sequel project. The 2018 manga Shaman King The Super Star is a direct sequel to Flowers, and all the other manga projects which started (and some also completed) since 2018 all fit into this new story divided on different series (Red Crimson and Marcos, in particular).
Now, the new trailer clearly shows the beginning to Flowers, but as the name of the new anime hasn't been stated yet, it could very well adapt also some of the newer projects.
All of the newer series should also been published in English as well, if you want to read them!

Thanks, I didn’t know The Super Star was a sequel to Flowers. I haven’t kept up with the many Shaman King series that have been released since Flowers ended, so I just assumed they were side stories.

Yeah I recall that while Flowers got cancelled, it then got a start up again in the Super Star which is currently ongoing.
So presumably they'll adapt Flowers as is with Super Star a question for a later point in the future.

They did answer that in Flowers. Kinda hard to raise a child in a war zone in which they all got killed when they tried to take Hana with them. Anna and Yoh go into warzones to mediate to fulfill the promise he made to Hao.
I fully understand why they gave up on raising him under these conditions. It really sucks for Hana tho. But at least he isn't lacking in parental figures.

They rushed only the first arc that already adapted in the classic anime so after that the pacing became normal.

So Yoh and Anna actually ended up killed in Shaman King sequel unlike MC's parents in Naruto's sequel Boruto (Boruto/Himawari and Sarada) and Inuyasha's sequel Yashahime (Towa/Setsuna and Moroha).
