Taking place 16 years after his father won the eponymous title at the end of the original series, Shaman King Flowers centers on Yoh and Ana Asakura’s delinquent son Hana (CV: Youko Hikasa – Arthur Pencilgon in Shangri-La Frontier) and his inherited Guardian Spirit Amidamaru (CV: Katsuyuki Konishi – Tengen Uzui in Kimetsu No Yaiba: Demon Slayer).

Spending his days living an average life filled with skipping school and gang fights, Hana’s life is soon turned on its head when his newly-met-fiancée Alumi Niumbirch (CV: Sumire Uesaka – Ranna Himawari in Rokudou no Onna-tachi) reveals that Hana’s name has been entered into the series’ Flower of Maize event.

Occurring when three or more of the eight individuals who have historically earned the title of ‘Shaman King’ find themselves dissatisfied with the role’s current representative, the event sees each former champion field their own team of select Shamans in a winner-take-all battle for the right to remain in power.

And Tao Men (CV: Romi Park – Hange Zoe in Attack on Titan), who despite being only seven-years-old is considered to be the team’s strongest member thanks to his ability to wield his parents’ own guardian ghosts, Bason and Shamash (of course, as a catch, he can only tap into their powers if he follows his parents’ ironclad ‘No Kill’ rule).
