1
00:00:13,513 --> 00:00:15,893
I'm Manta Oyamada, 13 years old.

2
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:18,600
After cram school one night,

3
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:21,095
I met a boy who was alone in a graveyard.

4
00:00:21,187 --> 00:00:23,397
His name was Yoh Asakura.

5
00:00:23,481 --> 00:00:26,071
Apparently he's a Shaman
who connects this world with the next.

6
00:00:26,985 --> 00:00:29,065
I thought this guy sounded real shady,

7
00:00:29,154 --> 00:00:31,824
but he told me that I was his friend.

8
00:00:32,490 --> 00:00:36,410
Yoh became one with the legendary samurai,
Amidamaru, using Spirit Integrate

9
00:00:36,995 --> 00:00:38,825
and defeated "Wooden Sword" Ryu
and his cronies.

10
00:00:39,414 --> 00:00:42,084
Yoh said he aspires to be the Shaman King.

11
00:00:42,667 --> 00:00:46,207
Then Amidamaru said that
he would become Yoh's ally!

12
00:00:49,883 --> 00:00:52,723
Cram school ended late again!

13
00:00:54,137 --> 00:00:57,347
Oh, right, this is the shortcut!

14
00:00:57,432 --> 00:01:02,732
But now that I'm familiar with the ghosts
in this graveyard, I'm not scared at all!

15
00:01:04,939 --> 00:01:08,109
Hey, you.
What are you in such a hurry for?

16
00:01:09,903 --> 00:01:10,953
Yoh?

17
00:01:11,529 --> 00:01:13,109
No, that's not Yoh!

18
00:01:13,698 --> 00:01:15,238
Who on earth is he?

19
00:01:16,493 --> 00:01:20,083
I guess there are other people
like Yoh around.

20
00:01:20,663 --> 00:01:23,293
Oh, no! Now isn't the time for this.

21
00:01:23,374 --> 00:01:25,464
You can't see the stars in Tokyo.

22
00:01:26,461 --> 00:01:30,471
Stars are like lanterns
that guide us, humans.

23
00:01:30,548 --> 00:01:32,838
Those who can't read the stars

24
00:01:32,926 --> 00:01:36,466
will lose sight of where they ought to go
and meet their doom.

25
00:01:37,055 --> 00:01:40,055
Are you among the ignorant
who can't read the stars?

26
00:01:40,767 --> 00:01:42,437
You're rude!

27
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:44,349
And how can you say there are no stars?

28
00:01:44,437 --> 00:01:47,647
This is the best place in town
to see the stars!

29
00:01:49,275 --> 00:01:51,985
You can't call these real stars.

30
00:01:52,487 --> 00:01:55,487
I thought you of all people
would understand that.

31
00:01:56,491 --> 00:01:59,791
Because you're also a human
who can see spirits, right?

32
00:01:59,869 --> 00:02:01,959
Spirits? How did you…

33
00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:05,130
Don't be so afraid.

34
00:02:05,208 --> 00:02:07,168
I have no intention of harming you.

35
00:02:07,752 --> 00:02:10,092
But I do have a little favor
to ask of you.

36
00:02:10,171 --> 00:02:12,471
-Favor?
-Your friend.

37
00:02:12,549 --> 00:02:15,089
The one with the headphones.
I have a message for him.

38
00:02:15,176 --> 00:02:16,176
For Yoh?

39
00:02:17,095 --> 00:02:18,635
My name is Ren.

40
00:02:23,977 --> 00:02:27,807
And I'll be taking your samurai spirit.

41
00:02:32,485 --> 00:02:34,445
The wandering souls of the dead,

42
00:02:34,988 --> 00:02:37,488
the higher spirits that lurk
in the forests of the land,

43
00:02:37,574 --> 00:02:38,954
and divine beings…

44
00:02:39,492 --> 00:02:41,492
There are those
who commune freely with them

45
00:02:41,578 --> 00:02:45,748
and command a power in this world
that ordinary humans cannot.

46
00:02:46,791 --> 00:02:48,961
They call them the Shamans!

47
00:04:21,010 --> 00:04:21,840
EPISODE 2
ANOTHER SHAMAN

48
00:04:21,928 --> 00:04:24,428
I'm telling you, it's true!
In that graveyard,

49
00:04:24,514 --> 00:04:27,434
there was a boy with the spirit
of a Chinese general!

50
00:04:27,517 --> 00:04:29,937
I'm sure of it! He's a Shaman!

51
00:04:30,019 --> 00:04:32,019
There's another Shaman aside from you!

52
00:04:32,105 --> 00:04:34,185
Really? That's cool.

53
00:04:34,274 --> 00:04:35,904
Aren't you surprised?

54
00:04:35,984 --> 00:04:37,364
Why would I be?

55
00:04:37,443 --> 00:04:40,493
Nobody said I was the only Shaman.

56
00:04:40,571 --> 00:04:43,571
There are still lots of us
all over the world.

57
00:04:44,158 --> 00:04:47,248
But he said he's going to take
your Amidamaru!

58
00:04:47,328 --> 00:04:49,158
Don't you think that's a big problem?

59
00:04:50,707 --> 00:04:51,747
Amidamaru?

60
00:04:54,210 --> 00:04:55,040
Ren…

61
00:04:55,128 --> 00:04:56,838
No, I don't know him.

62
00:04:56,921 --> 00:04:59,091
I've never heard of a Shaman
with that name.

63
00:04:59,173 --> 00:05:03,553
Really? But you must have given him
some reason to hold a grudge or something.

64
00:05:03,636 --> 00:05:05,306
Nothing springs to mind.

65
00:05:05,888 --> 00:05:08,558
-But I guess it could be that.
-"That"?

66
00:05:09,350 --> 00:05:12,940
A Shaman's status is determined
by the strength of their spirit.

67
00:05:13,021 --> 00:05:17,031
Maybe he saw me with Amidamaru somewhere.

68
00:05:17,108 --> 00:05:19,028
-I see!
-Amidamaru!

69
00:05:19,610 --> 00:05:23,530
So he wishes to make this cool
and powerful warrior his own, does he?

70
00:05:23,614 --> 00:05:27,414
I guess. But maybe don't
talk about yourself in that way.

71
00:05:27,493 --> 00:05:28,953
Moreover,

72
00:05:29,037 --> 00:05:32,917
the fact that this young lad's Spirit Ally
is a Chinese general bothers me.

73
00:05:34,751 --> 00:05:36,461
It'll be okay!

74
00:05:36,544 --> 00:05:40,094
After all, there's no bad person
who can see spirits!

75
00:05:40,173 --> 00:05:42,263
So don't sweat it.

76
00:05:42,967 --> 00:05:44,967
I'm sure he has a good reason.

77
00:05:45,553 --> 00:05:47,183
I'd like to meet him myself.

78
00:05:47,263 --> 00:05:50,353
Maybe he could be my first Shaman friend!

79
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:55,154
I would also be delighted
to meet this Chinese general!

80
00:05:56,606 --> 00:05:58,266
It will be a real pleasure!

81
00:05:58,858 --> 00:05:59,778
Right!

82
00:06:00,359 --> 00:06:02,069
Suit yourselves.

83
00:06:02,153 --> 00:06:03,953
What do you think you're doing, brat?

84
00:06:07,158 --> 00:06:09,408
That's him! That's Ren!

85
00:06:09,494 --> 00:06:11,164
Oh, that's him?

86
00:06:11,245 --> 00:06:13,075
I cannot see the spirit general.

87
00:06:14,165 --> 00:06:16,495
What a whiny bunch of pests you are.

88
00:06:16,584 --> 00:06:18,964
The car was simply in my way.

89
00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:21,335
What? So you thought you'd kick it?

90
00:06:21,422 --> 00:06:22,802
Are you soft in the head?

91
00:06:22,882 --> 00:06:24,632
Call us pests, will you?

92
00:06:24,717 --> 00:06:28,047
That thing coughs out exhaust fumes
that pollute the air

93
00:06:28,137 --> 00:06:30,137
and make it hard to see the stars.

94
00:06:30,932 --> 00:06:34,642
What are you to this planet, if not pests?

95
00:06:34,727 --> 00:06:36,397
You're damn cockroaches!

96
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:39,069
-You punk!
-We'll teach you for messing with us!

97
00:06:45,696 --> 00:06:47,406
Oh, kung fu!

98
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:48,660
Look at those moves!

99
00:06:50,243 --> 00:06:52,913
Is he really a Shaman?

100
00:06:53,538 --> 00:06:55,208
He's strong enough by himself.

101
00:06:55,289 --> 00:06:58,079
No, I'm sure I saw a spirit…

102
00:06:58,167 --> 00:07:00,287
Maybe I was mistaken?

103
00:07:01,212 --> 00:07:03,922
Bastard! I'll kill you!

104
00:07:06,801 --> 00:07:09,471
I suppose the only thing to do with pests
is exterminate them.

105
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,100
Come out! Bason!

106
00:07:16,352 --> 00:07:17,692
There he is!

107
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:26,114
Spirit Integrate!

108
00:07:28,823 --> 00:07:29,663
Bason!

109
00:07:30,741 --> 00:07:31,991
Vorpal Dance!

110
00:07:36,372 --> 00:07:39,962
-Astonishing!
-You saw that, right, Yoh? I told you!

111
00:07:42,420 --> 00:07:44,090
What the hell was that?

112
00:07:46,007 --> 00:07:50,007
It's like they say,
cockroaches are hard to kill.

113
00:07:50,595 --> 00:07:51,885
But it's not impossible!

114
00:07:55,308 --> 00:07:56,728
That's enough!

115
00:07:57,435 --> 00:07:58,725
So you showed up,

116
00:07:58,811 --> 00:08:00,061
headphone boy.

117
00:08:00,146 --> 00:08:02,646
What exactly are you after?

118
00:08:02,732 --> 00:08:05,282
A Shaman isn't meant to take lives.

119
00:08:05,359 --> 00:08:07,319
Don't be so tetchy.

120
00:08:07,403 --> 00:08:10,033
What's so precious
about these guys' lives?

121
00:08:10,114 --> 00:08:12,164
They pollute the air and ignore the stars.

122
00:08:12,241 --> 00:08:15,161
They're entitled parasites,
destroying everything in their wake.

123
00:08:15,244 --> 00:08:17,504
They reveal humanity's true, rotten side.

124
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,920
I couldn't give a damn
how many people like that die.

125
00:08:21,792 --> 00:08:23,712
My name is Tao Ren,

126
00:08:23,794 --> 00:08:27,924
the one who will be king of Shamans
and tidy up this world.

127
00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:31,893
Now, the conversation's over,
headphone boy.

128
00:08:32,595 --> 00:08:36,345
It's time for you
to give me your Spirit Ally.

129
00:08:36,432 --> 00:08:38,482
-No.
-What?

130
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,439
You've been spouting nothing
but nonsense this whole time.

131
00:08:41,521 --> 00:08:44,401
You can't just demand people
you've just met to give you things!

132
00:08:45,900 --> 00:08:48,190
Would it help if I said, "please"?

133
00:08:48,277 --> 00:08:49,487
No.

134
00:08:49,570 --> 00:08:51,320
Amidamaru is my friend!

135
00:08:51,405 --> 00:08:52,905
Whether you say "please" or not,

136
00:08:52,990 --> 00:08:54,780
don't talk about him like he's an object!

137
00:08:54,867 --> 00:08:57,287
-Friend?
-A dear friend.

138
00:08:57,370 --> 00:08:59,790
If you want to borrow Amidamaru's power,

139
00:08:59,872 --> 00:09:02,252
then why not just become friends with us?

140
00:09:05,127 --> 00:09:06,877
A spirit is your friend?

141
00:09:06,963 --> 00:09:09,133
Is that how you see them?

142
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:11,593
What's so funny?

143
00:09:11,676 --> 00:09:14,346
To Shamans like us,

144
00:09:14,428 --> 00:09:17,768
spirits are nothing more than tools
to be used for their powers.

145
00:09:17,848 --> 00:09:21,388
You're not supposed to feel
a sense of friendship with your tools.

146
00:09:21,477 --> 00:09:23,147
Tools?

147
00:09:23,229 --> 00:09:27,109
What? I'm only speaking the truth.

148
00:09:27,191 --> 00:09:30,031
You aren't capable of making
proper use of that samurai.

149
00:09:31,445 --> 00:09:35,735
It's only appropriate that
a strong spirit like that belongs to me.

150
00:09:36,701 --> 00:09:38,701
If you won't give him to me,

151
00:09:38,786 --> 00:09:41,246
I will take him by force.

152
00:09:41,831 --> 00:09:42,711
Go, Bason!

153
00:09:42,790 --> 00:09:46,590
First destroy his owner, that Shaman!

154
00:09:47,962 --> 00:09:50,302
When a spirit loses its master,

155
00:09:50,381 --> 00:09:53,471
a skilled Shaman like me
can easily bring them to heel,

156
00:09:53,551 --> 00:09:55,341
regardless of what they want!

157
00:09:55,845 --> 00:09:58,715
And then they're reborn
as an excellent tool!

158
00:10:01,267 --> 00:10:03,347
Is that how you made the spirit behind you

159
00:10:03,436 --> 00:10:06,226
into the fighting machine that he is?

160
00:10:06,731 --> 00:10:09,861
I don't care how big and clever
you think you are.

161
00:10:10,526 --> 00:10:13,356
I won't let you treat spirits like tools!

162
00:10:13,946 --> 00:10:14,906
Amidamaru!

163
00:10:14,989 --> 00:10:15,949
I'm here!

164
00:10:16,032 --> 00:10:17,622
This guy's got it all wrong!

165
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:19,120
I concur!

166
00:10:20,077 --> 00:10:21,867
There you are, samurai!

167
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:22,914
-Let's go!
-Let's go!

168
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:26,294
-Spirit Integrate!
-Spirit Integrate!

169
00:10:45,686 --> 00:10:47,806
I won't let you get in Young Master's way!

170
00:10:47,897 --> 00:10:49,607
Vorpal Dance!

171
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:51,935
What was that?

172
00:10:52,026 --> 00:10:53,606
That was nothing!

173
00:10:54,779 --> 00:10:56,489
We won't stop until you're down!

174
00:10:57,406 --> 00:10:59,576
He parried Vorpal Dance?

175
00:11:03,663 --> 00:11:06,583
I knew I was right about you.

176
00:11:06,666 --> 00:11:09,916
Now I want you even more, Amidamaru!

177
00:11:10,503 --> 00:11:12,633
All right, enough playing around!

178
00:11:12,713 --> 00:11:14,803
Now it's time to hunt you down for real!

179
00:11:15,383 --> 00:11:17,593
Playing around? What's he talking about?

180
00:11:18,761 --> 00:11:19,641
Amidamaru,

181
00:11:20,221 --> 00:11:23,351
there's no doubt that
you're far stronger than my Bason,

182
00:11:23,933 --> 00:11:26,023
but I'm sure you've realized this already.

183
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:31,109
That boy isn't capable of drawing
even 10% of your power.

184
00:11:32,149 --> 00:11:35,949
Behold! This is the power
of a true Shaman!

185
00:11:36,612 --> 00:11:38,492
100% integration!

186
00:11:40,950 --> 00:11:43,160
Vorpal Dance!

187
00:11:54,922 --> 00:11:58,632
For the ability to restore 100%
of a spirit's power in this world,

188
00:11:59,510 --> 00:12:01,890
you need the mental strength

189
00:12:01,971 --> 00:12:05,141
to use them as tools,
which some would call cruelty.

190
00:12:06,934 --> 00:12:10,484
You're not in the same league
of Shamans as I am.

191
00:12:10,980 --> 00:12:13,020
Amidamaru is mine!

192
00:12:25,286 --> 00:12:26,366
Yoh!

193
00:12:26,454 --> 00:12:28,714
What the hell is going on?

194
00:12:28,789 --> 00:12:31,129
How could Yoh and Amidamaru lose?

195
00:12:31,709 --> 00:12:32,959
How naïve.

196
00:12:33,043 --> 00:12:36,513
A Shaman who can't dominate their spirit
can't use it to its full potential.

197
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:39,429
There's no way a boy like him

198
00:12:39,508 --> 00:12:41,928
who sees his spirit as his friend
could control it.

199
00:12:43,053 --> 00:12:43,973
Control?

200
00:12:44,555 --> 00:12:47,515
There's a reason we must do this.

201
00:12:48,142 --> 00:12:50,442
It's because when we enter
a state of possession,

202
00:12:50,519 --> 00:12:54,979
two souls inhabit our bodies
at the same time.

203
00:12:55,065 --> 00:12:56,475
Two souls?

204
00:12:58,235 --> 00:13:00,105
You're quick on the uptake.

205
00:13:00,196 --> 00:13:03,566
One body is being controlled by two minds.

206
00:13:03,657 --> 00:13:06,907
It's impossible to predict all
the friction that might result from that.

207
00:13:06,994 --> 00:13:10,164
Delayed transmission of information
and conflicts of opinion…

208
00:13:10,706 --> 00:13:14,206
If you see this second spirit
as your friend and equal,

209
00:13:14,293 --> 00:13:17,673
it's only natural that you'll limit
what your body can do.

210
00:13:18,380 --> 00:13:22,800
A Shaman uses
the power of the spirits as they see fit!

211
00:13:23,385 --> 00:13:26,005
To that end, they must always
exert total domination

212
00:13:26,096 --> 00:13:29,056
on their spirits and use them
effectively as tools!

213
00:13:29,141 --> 00:13:32,231
A weak-willed person
who thinks spirits are friends

214
00:13:32,311 --> 00:13:34,271
will never accomplish that!

215
00:13:37,191 --> 00:13:39,691
No matter how superb his car is,

216
00:13:39,777 --> 00:13:43,567
a worthless driver will never win a race!

217
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:46,366
An excellent machine needs someone

218
00:13:46,450 --> 00:13:48,830
with the skill worthy of using it!

219
00:13:49,411 --> 00:13:51,251
You can die in peace.

220
00:13:51,330 --> 00:13:54,380
I'll make good use of Amidamaru.

221
00:13:56,210 --> 00:13:58,090
Amidamaru isn't a machine!

222
00:13:58,796 --> 00:14:00,126
Yoh!

223
00:14:00,798 --> 00:14:04,128
I told you, Amidamaru is my friend!

224
00:14:04,718 --> 00:14:07,508
But you still want to treat him
like an object, don't you?

225
00:14:08,097 --> 00:14:09,307
You twerp!

226
00:14:09,390 --> 00:14:11,560
You still have the strength to sit up.

227
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:17,476
If Amidamaru hadn't dodged
in the nick of time, I'd have lost my arm.

228
00:14:21,235 --> 00:14:25,445
You can stand up to Bason's attacks
even at such a disadvantage?

229
00:14:25,531 --> 00:14:28,331
My desire to have you
just grows stronger and stronger!

230
00:14:28,909 --> 00:14:29,909
Amidamaru!

231
00:14:30,494 --> 00:14:31,454
Don't make me laugh!

232
00:14:32,079 --> 00:14:33,749
You think I would possess you?

233
00:14:34,331 --> 00:14:35,331
Enough of the tough act.

234
00:14:35,416 --> 00:14:37,536
What can you do in that state?

235
00:14:37,626 --> 00:14:40,246
Look at your master's injuries!

236
00:14:42,798 --> 00:14:43,918
Forgive me, Master Yoh.

237
00:14:44,008 --> 00:14:45,888
If only I were a little stronger…

238
00:14:45,968 --> 00:14:47,718
What are you talking about?

239
00:14:47,803 --> 00:14:49,973
You're plenty strong, Amidamaru.

240
00:14:51,098 --> 00:14:53,098
It's me who let you down.

241
00:14:53,183 --> 00:14:54,353
I'm beat.

242
00:14:54,435 --> 00:14:56,055
To think someone like him…

243
00:14:57,271 --> 00:14:58,191
Master Yoh!

244
00:14:58,772 --> 00:15:01,282
I can't win against him, Amidamaru.

245
00:15:01,859 --> 00:15:04,279
So run away from here, right now!

246
00:15:05,988 --> 00:15:07,988
More futile struggling.

247
00:15:08,073 --> 00:15:12,753
Once you die, that samurai will have
nowhere else to go in this world.

248
00:15:13,370 --> 00:15:17,000
That's why he'll go to see
his best friend Mosuke in the afterlife.

249
00:15:17,082 --> 00:15:20,252
Amidamaru has no unfinished business left
in the world of the living!

250
00:15:20,961 --> 00:15:22,551
-The afterlife?
-Imbecile!

251
00:15:23,130 --> 00:15:24,920
Once a spirit passes over,

252
00:15:25,007 --> 00:15:27,377
it never comes back!

253
00:15:27,468 --> 00:15:30,178
You mean to tell me
you'll throw your Spirit Ally away?

254
00:15:32,723 --> 00:15:36,693
I'd much rather have that happen
than let Amidamaru become your possession!

255
00:15:38,604 --> 00:15:39,564
Master Yoh!

256
00:15:40,522 --> 00:15:42,692
Damn you!

257
00:15:42,775 --> 00:15:46,445
Then I'll just have to kill you
before that samurai passes over

258
00:15:46,528 --> 00:15:48,318
and make him mine!

259
00:15:49,865 --> 00:15:50,735
Amidamaru!

260
00:15:51,408 --> 00:15:53,118
Don't be stupid!

261
00:15:53,202 --> 00:15:54,702
Hurry up and leave this world!

262
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:55,827
Master Yoh!

263
00:15:56,538 --> 00:15:59,378
I am well aware that
there is nothing I can do.

264
00:15:59,917 --> 00:16:02,707
But as a samurai,
I cannot forsake my master.

265
00:16:03,295 --> 00:16:06,295
Not to mention that
I would have regrets in this world

266
00:16:06,382 --> 00:16:08,132
if I would have left you, Master Yoh!

267
00:16:08,968 --> 00:16:10,388
Amidamaru!

268
00:16:11,762 --> 00:16:14,222
What a touching bond, you pair of idiots!

269
00:16:14,306 --> 00:16:18,346
But are you still blind to the fact that
your friendship keeps you from beating me?

270
00:16:18,978 --> 00:16:20,018
Come on, Bason!

271
00:16:21,563 --> 00:16:23,483
100% integration!

272
00:16:25,985 --> 00:16:28,195
Vorpal Dance!

273
00:16:34,118 --> 00:16:35,448
Integrating even now?

274
00:16:35,536 --> 00:16:38,036
You don't know when to give up.

275
00:16:39,623 --> 00:16:42,793
How did he manage to stop
my Bason's attack?

276
00:16:45,462 --> 00:16:48,132
They're at 100% integration!

277
00:16:50,718 --> 00:16:52,298
I can't believe it.

278
00:16:52,886 --> 00:16:56,516
Two "friends" shouldn't be able
to do something like that.

279
00:16:56,598 --> 00:16:57,808
But they can.

280
00:16:59,685 --> 00:17:01,645
You taught me yourself.

281
00:17:01,729 --> 00:17:05,019
If your minds are in perfect harmony,

282
00:17:05,107 --> 00:17:08,277
you can use 100% of your spirit's power!

283
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:12,912
And now our intentions are one.

284
00:17:14,116 --> 00:17:15,906
We're both set on defeating you!

285
00:17:17,911 --> 00:17:18,751
That stance…

286
00:17:18,829 --> 00:17:22,369
It's the same legendary stance
Amidamaru used 600 years ago

287
00:17:22,458 --> 00:17:24,838
in the massacre that made him
a legendary demon!

288
00:17:28,589 --> 00:17:29,589
Tathagata!

289
00:17:30,632 --> 00:17:33,512
Don't give me that crap.

290
00:17:33,594 --> 00:17:36,974
There's no way your minds
are in 100% alignment.

291
00:17:39,058 --> 00:17:41,188
Does this friendship of yours

292
00:17:41,268 --> 00:17:43,598
ever lead to everything going

293
00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:45,609
just as you expected?

294
00:17:46,356 --> 00:17:47,186
It does!

295
00:17:48,859 --> 00:17:50,359
Here's your answer!

296
00:17:51,153 --> 00:17:53,113
Amida-Style Halo Blade!

297
00:17:54,740 --> 00:17:56,870
100% integration!

298
00:17:57,409 --> 00:17:58,539
It can't be…

299
00:17:58,619 --> 00:18:00,749
If it really is,

300
00:18:00,829 --> 00:18:03,619
he could also be qualified
to be the Shaman King!

301
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:08,301
Shaman King…

302
00:18:09,171 --> 00:18:10,921
-Yoh!
-Master Yoh!

303
00:18:18,972 --> 00:18:20,352
What was that?

304
00:18:20,432 --> 00:18:22,562
You started your training four years ago

305
00:18:23,060 --> 00:18:25,690
and you still can't even summon
a ground spirit?

306
00:18:26,563 --> 00:18:28,193
Come on, Grandpa!

307
00:18:28,273 --> 00:18:30,113
Most people can't do this!

308
00:18:30,692 --> 00:18:33,322
What's even the point of this, anyway?

309
00:18:34,905 --> 00:18:37,565
Those who decide they can't do something

310
00:18:38,158 --> 00:18:39,028
without even trying

311
00:18:39,993 --> 00:18:41,543
will never succeed at anything!

312
00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:43,540
What? Leaf Sprites?

313
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,590
Shikigami, the signature attack
of Japan's leading Shamans, the Onmyoji!

314
00:18:49,670 --> 00:18:53,970
If you're a real member of the Asakuras,
the ancient family of Shamans,

315
00:18:54,049 --> 00:18:56,089
you must master Shikigami
at the very least!

316
00:18:56,176 --> 00:18:57,846
-I don't want to!
-What did you say?

317
00:18:58,428 --> 00:19:01,098
I'm not interested
in being a Shaman one bit.

318
00:19:02,224 --> 00:19:05,354
Then what do you want to do
when you're older?

319
00:19:06,019 --> 00:19:07,229
What I want

320
00:19:07,312 --> 00:19:11,072
is to listen to my favorite music
every day and live an easy life.

321
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,239
You dunce!

322
00:19:15,445 --> 00:19:17,025
It's shameful.

323
00:19:17,114 --> 00:19:19,784
Little by little, the people of the world

324
00:19:19,867 --> 00:19:23,867
are forgetting about the souls around us
and the higher spirits in the ground,

325
00:19:24,371 --> 00:19:28,211
even though it's impossible for them
to escape the great cycle of nature.

326
00:19:28,876 --> 00:19:32,336
If the forests are destroyed,
there's less wood, less air.

327
00:19:32,421 --> 00:19:34,341
If the earth is covered over,

328
00:19:34,423 --> 00:19:37,013
water has nowhere to go
and it causes floods.

329
00:19:37,092 --> 00:19:39,222
Everything in the world

330
00:19:39,303 --> 00:19:42,603
is connected to the great cycle of life.

331
00:19:43,599 --> 00:19:44,679
Which is why

332
00:19:44,766 --> 00:19:49,646
humans need something
to guide them through life in this world.

333
00:19:50,731 --> 00:19:51,821
And that's…

334
00:19:54,818 --> 00:19:57,608
The all-knowing, all-powerful spirit.

335
00:19:57,696 --> 00:20:01,326
The great king of spirits,
commonly known as "god."

336
00:20:03,452 --> 00:20:06,122
The king of higher spirits?

337
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:10,455
He has been depicted in many ways
and has a great variety of names.

338
00:20:10,542 --> 00:20:15,092
But only a few people
have ever been able to meet him.

339
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:18,472
Those few people discovered
what his wishes were,

340
00:20:19,051 --> 00:20:23,011
then conveyed those wishes to the masses
to maintain the harmony of the land

341
00:20:23,597 --> 00:20:26,597
in order to prevent the people
from blindly following their desires

342
00:20:26,683 --> 00:20:28,643
and heading down a path of destruction.

343
00:20:29,895 --> 00:20:31,805
Hey, Grandpa! Who were they?

344
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:34,067
Who were the people
who met the king of higher spirits?

345
00:20:34,858 --> 00:20:36,148
Those people

346
00:20:36,735 --> 00:20:39,395
possessed the powers of all Shamans

347
00:20:39,488 --> 00:20:42,198
and were capable of becoming one
with the king of higher spirits.

348
00:20:42,282 --> 00:20:44,202
The Shaman Kings.

349
00:20:44,785 --> 00:20:48,615
They have gone down as saviors
in the chronicles of humans.

350
00:20:50,874 --> 00:20:54,294
Not that you'd be interested
in any of this, though.

351
00:20:54,962 --> 00:20:56,302
That's…

352
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,130
That's awesome!

353
00:20:58,215 --> 00:21:01,045
Can I become a Shaman King too?

354
00:21:03,679 --> 00:21:05,309
No way!

355
00:21:05,889 --> 00:21:10,769
What's up with you? I didn't think
a lazy-bones like you would be interested.

356
00:21:10,852 --> 00:21:11,692
But Grandpa!

357
00:21:12,271 --> 00:21:15,901
If I can become friends with
this know-it-all king of higher spirits,

358
00:21:15,983 --> 00:21:19,323
I'll never have any problems
and I can chill out all day long!

359
00:21:20,362 --> 00:21:23,322
Hey! Tell me how I can become
a Shaman King!

360
00:21:23,407 --> 00:21:25,117
I'll train really hard!

361
00:21:25,659 --> 00:21:27,369
You total dunce!

362
00:21:30,372 --> 00:21:31,212
Yoh…

363
00:21:31,790 --> 00:21:33,210
Master Yoh! You're awake!

364
00:21:33,792 --> 00:21:35,542
Thank goodness!

365
00:21:36,211 --> 00:21:39,671
Right. The king of Shamans
that guy mentioned

366
00:21:39,756 --> 00:21:41,836
must be the Shaman King.

367
00:21:41,925 --> 00:21:42,875
-What?
-What did you say?

368
00:21:43,468 --> 00:21:46,258
I forgot that I started training
in the first place

369
00:21:46,346 --> 00:21:48,096
to become the Shaman King.

370
00:21:48,598 --> 00:21:52,018
I guess at some point, I started training
just for the sake of training.

371
00:21:52,102 --> 00:21:54,862
-Hold up!
-I'm just glad you're safe!

372
00:21:54,938 --> 00:21:57,268
-Tell me about the Shaman King!
-I was scared to death!

373
00:21:57,357 --> 00:21:58,817
Oh, be quiet.

374
00:22:00,694 --> 00:22:02,404
I heard you were hurt,

375
00:22:02,988 --> 00:22:04,818
so I came all the way to see you.

376
00:22:05,574 --> 00:22:06,784
But what is this racket?

377
00:22:06,867 --> 00:22:09,867
Who are you,
turning up out of the blue like this?

378
00:22:09,953 --> 00:22:11,623
Have you got the wrong room?

379
00:22:12,205 --> 00:22:13,365
Be careful, Manta!

380
00:22:16,418 --> 00:22:19,548
Don't talk to me that way, half-pint.

381
00:22:20,589 --> 00:22:21,629
I'm a Shaman.

382
00:22:22,299 --> 00:22:23,509
Anna, an Itako.

383
00:22:24,843 --> 00:22:26,643
Yoh Asakura's fiancée.

384
00:23:52,848 --> 00:23:57,848
