Shaman King Volume 2 : A Precocious Shaman Chapter 11 Shaman Life - Page 47 - Chapter 11 - Shaman Life [Shinra Private Academy] [(New Term)] Manta: Shaman Fight... Shaman Fight... I knew it. Not in the encyclopedia. I just can't believe a tournament like that could really exist. I didn't get to hang out with Yoh-kun all through summer vacation... And why do these shamans need to prove their superiority through fighting? - Page 48 - Yoh: Humans' abilities are tested when they are always being pushed to their limits. That's why fighting is the most appropriate way to decide the Shaman King. Manta: YOH-KUN!! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?! WAS IT... Yoh: No, this is from... Manta: From...? Yoh: Anna's special training course. Manta: DID SHE TORTURE YOU?! - Page 49 - Chapter 11 - Shaman Life - Page 50 - Manta: I can't believe you were really training! But Yoh-kun, your body's all torn up!! Just WHAT were you doing?! Yoh: Hmmmmm? Jeez, Manta, why can't you leave me alone? I'm tired. All I did was build my strength. Manta: Build your strength? Yoh: Yeah... In my case, my spirit has to lower his ability when using my body. So if I want to use my spirit's power 100%, I have to have the muscle to support it. - Page 51 - Yoh: Also the endurance to fight long battles, and the ability to withstand pain for when I'm hit. Manta: A... are you serious, then...? Is that Shaman Fight In Tokyo thing... Yoh: Listen, Manta. Do you think I could joke about stuff like this? You know me, I like being lazy. Manta: Yeah, but... Yoh: The Shaman Fight is a tournament to test the ability to combine both one's own power and the power of one's ghost. Of course, having a ghost as strong as possible helps, but it'll be nearly impossible to win if you can't manifest it 100%. No matter how strong the spirit I have is, As long as I am not, I cannot win. That's why I'm working hard. - Page 52 - Yoh: Not even for my far-off dream, but rather, to be a fitting shaman for Amidamaru. Manta: Y... Yoh-kun... You seem so grown up...! Just what happened? Yoh: NOTHIN'. I just don't wanna be separated from Amidamaru. Any shaman would want a spirit as good as Amidamaru. Manta: Oh- Oh, you joker! Stop acting cool! I bet you're just being pushed around by that Anna girl, right? - Page 53 - Yoh: Don't say "pushed around"... THAT'S WHAT I REALLY FEEL LIKE!! Manta: Then I was right... Yoh: Yes. I don't want to remember those days in hell. If I refused her, she'd slap me or scratch me. She is absolutely insane. Manta: Wow. Anna really IS amazing. Yoh: WHAT?! Manta: She's got to be pretty good to make YOU act that serious. Yoh: Yeah, right. Now that I'm free from that hellish nightmare, the new school semester is a relief. - Page 54 - Anna: I DON'T THINK SO. I want you to do the "Electric Chair" the rest of the day. Yoh: JUST like that. Manta: (hahaha) Yeah, she really is a demon. Both: {AH!} Teacher: Uhhhhhh. Okay, we got another transfer student today. So be nice to her, yeah? She's from Shimokita in Aomori. - Page 55 - Teacher: Kyouyama Anna-kun. (Note: Kyouyama translates literally as "fear-mountain".) Anna: HELLO. Boys: (Helloooo!) Manta: Then Yoh-kun... {Has no safe haven...!!} Ryu: Uwaahahahaha!! I can't believe we actually found such a great spot as a burned out Chinese restaurant here in Funbarigaoka!! We've finally found it! This is our-! - Page 56 - Ryu: BEST PLACE!! Men: YAAAAAAYYY! Muscle Punch: Yes! We've finally done it, Ryu-san!! We didn't even have rooms in our houses, but now we've found a place to live!! Ryu: Yes... The housing situation in Tokyo is tough. It's been a long trip. Nothing good has happened since that damn headphone kid cut off my regent... But my hair has come back, and along with it, luck...!! Ballboy: Doesn't this place seem a little scary, Ryu-san...? Ryu: DON'T RUIN THE MOOD, BALLBOY!! - Page 57 - Ballboy: But... don't you feel like... there are people living here...? Ryu: WHA-?! Yeah, right. Hell no. Ballboy: A-! And, look. That thing's creepy... Doesn't it look... kinda like a COFFIN...? Muscle Punch: A... a seal...? Holy... Ryu: Pshhhhh! You guys are pathetic. Hah... I'll just take a look inside. - Page 58 - Ren: What are you doing there? Ryu: W- WHO THE HELL IS THAT?! HUH?! Ren: Don't talk to me like that. I bought this place from the former owner. Now, I want you to leave. - Page 59 - Ryu: Wha...?! This is YOUR house?! That ain't funny! Since when do kids live in a place like this?! Ren: I'M IN A BAD MOOD RIGHT NOW. GET OUT... IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE. Ryu: Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's yer problem, Spikey? Don't give me any attitude. Who do you think I am? HMMM?! Huh?! - Page 60 - Ryu: A BLADE? Muscle Punch: R... Ryu-san's ULTRA REGENT got cut again...!! Ren: NEXT TIME I'LL AIM FOR YOUR NECK. Men: M... MURDERER...!! Ren: Tch. Stupid cockroaches, entering my room without permission. However... I thought I told you not to let anyone in my house, - Page 61 - Ren: BASON!! Bason: Sir! F... forgive me, Lord Ren! They could not see spirits, So I could not...! Ren: ENOUGH!! No excuses, you worthless slug!! - Page 62 - Ren: Whose fault do you think it is that I'm so angry?! This is all because you're too weak!! Bason: Lord Ren... Ren: Damn you, headphones boy!! You didn't beat me because of skill, You beat me because your ghost was more powerful. If I only had that samurai...!! Jun: Pretty pathetic, for you to strike your own spirit, Ren. If that's the case, then I'll give you that samurai myself. - Page 63 - Ren: What the hell do you want? Sister. Jun: My job as a member of the "Tao" shaman family, is to support you, the future emperor, the "Shaman King". - Page 64 - Ren: Hmph... I don't care about the Tao family. I'm going to become the Shaman King for my own reasons. Jun: Haha... promising boy. That's the way an emperor should act. But an emperor also has to know how to use people. If it was me, I'd steal that samurai plain and simple. Ren: Hah. Jun: Don't belittle me. For my kung fu master spirit... Samurai's skills and pain mean nothing, do they not? - Page 65 - Jun: LEE PYLON!! Come with me, the "doushi" Tao Jun! (Note: Doushi appears to represent something like an Oriental friar or monk. You may notice she uses a lot of wards and things.) - Page 66 - Shaman King Character File No.6 BASON No further information at this time - Chapter 11 Owari -
