Shaman King
During Jump Festa 2008, Shueisha announced a "kanzenban" reprint of the entire series. The series is called "Shaman King Kanzen-Ban", or Perfect Edition. This release reprinted the entire series in 27 volumes, complete with new, clear image overlays on the covers, and concluding with an alternative ending. Without the original chapter 285, the "kanzenban" has sixteen additional chapters and 300 chapters in total. The first volume was published on March 3, 2008, and volume 27 was published on April 3, 2009. During late 2011, Takei started writing "Shaman King Zero" which is a one-volume prequel involving the main characters' backstories. A sequel titled "Shaman King Flowers", focused on Yoh's son, Hana Asakura, started serialization in Shueisha's "Jump X" in April 2012.
