Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I am excited about the upcoming Shaman King Flowers anime series. I have been a fan of the Shaman King manga for many years, and I am eager to see the story continued in animated form. The new PV looks great, and I am especially excited to hear the ending theme song, which is performed by Sumire Uesaka.
I think it's great that the Shaman King franchise is getting a new anime series. The original series was very popular, and I think the new series will be even better. The animation looks amazing, and the story is even more exciting than the original. I can't wait to see what happens next in the story.
