If I'm honest, I feel that this reboot is a slap to the face of younger fans who watches the original. And I should know - I watches the original when I was younger.

This reboot however, if I'm honest, felt rushed - it was like each episode was two episodes crammed together. It was mind numbing. At least the episodes of the original was more detailed.

I honestly thought this was a follow up, but it wasn't. As a fan of the original, I was a little disappointed.

Pros:

• Great animation.

Cons:

• Bad oppening- they didn't even bother to dub it as the original epic oppening
• Fast Pacing- everything feels so quick, things just happening, so you don't relate deeply to characters or understand their motivs for their actions
• Uncessary changes: they add new characters that didnt fit nor play a role in the shaman king world, they just there for no reason.

What a mess.
