Well, the plot in Ultimo has been all over the place. But since it's move to quarterly releases, it's moving in the direction towards some sort of end. There is no way for it to be a "great" ending, but it shouldn't be as much of a "stopping here in the middle" sort of end. Jumbor was working...

And today's Hiroyuki Takei bad news day as well... here's the post from Patch-Cafe: - Shaman King Flowers is officially completed and will not be continued. - He does want to write a new sequel to Shaman King, but it will be using a different name. - Ultimo’s true final chapter will be in Jump...

The current Shaman King fanbase basically caps out around 150,000. Yes, Flowers and Zero get initial prints of up to 65,000. Then maybe push another 10,000 sales over the following week (bringing it to 75,000 in a 2 week period). Doubling that number is the total fanbase (for everyone else who...

Actually, Takei was pegged to go into SQ with his KZB chapters of Shaman King. He was suppose to help boost the magazine sales if the sales started dropping. But the magazine took off on it's own, so he didn't join in until Ultimo came out. Jump SQ also isn't a good fit. There are too many...

The first 10 volumes can be read digitally or in print. They are about 1 year behind Japanese-releases... which puts it at only 1 volume behind. Though they might "speed up" and get the final volume out sooner (sometime next year). Volume 11 comes out on December 1st. You may also want to wait...

Nope hasn't been picked up by any magazine... yet. But Takei is staying busy with some other smaller projects, and he's preparing his cosplay for Otakon later this month. Ultimo will finish up this month. Jumbor should conclude in a couple of months. Hyper Dash Yonkuro chapter 2 also comes out...

From TDX's website... "ETA for the last chapter of Liar Game: a couple of days" Of course, I don't know how many days that's been up there. So I would think soon. It will be nice to actually read the chapter, even though I read the spoilers above. I feel like we'll get a shorter run sequel...

Ultimo is still bi-monthly in Jump SQ19. Jumbor is monthly in Ultra Jump. However both series may end this year. Hiroyuki Takei is scheduled to have a new series/oneshot in Corocoro Aniki starting in March. He may be in the process of changing publishers so... it might be a bit bumpy for the...

Shaman King Zero volume 2 (preview) Ultimo volume 11 (preview)

Yes, Hiatus is the best way to put it. Hiroyuki Takei is probably in the process of changing publishers... so when the next Shaman King series will be is up in the air. It could be a bit bumpy for a while. However, volume 6 (final) of Flowers comes out on December 16th. So hopefully that gives...

http://asianwiki.com/Liar_Game_(Korean_Drama) So a Live Action Korean version of the Liar Game manga is being adapted and is airing right now! Currently up to 4 episodes have been subbed into English. It sounds like there will only be 10 episodes Has anyone watched any of these yet? How do...

So Corocoro comics just started up yet another spin-off magazine! This one is called Corocoro Aniki (コロコロアニキ), and it looks like it will stick around for a while with bi-monthly releases. The first release was on October 15th, 2014. I guess it sold really well for the first issue. I guess...

Bunch of new chapters have come out since my last post. And Zero chapter 8 is now out too. From Patch-Cafe: Flowers chapter is 22 pages (Chapter 28) Zero chapter is 19 pages (Chapter 9) Shaman King Flowers will be on the final Jump Kai issue cover We should know where Shaman King Flowers is...

In case anyone was wondering... Shaman King Flowers will be on the cover of the final Jump Kai issue releasing next month (10/10). (There will also be a Shaman King Zero chapter as well.)

Wow, that document looks to be pretty interesting... It's a shame it's not in English. I wonder if someone would scanlate it...? :)
