Yesterday, Hiroyuki Takei, the creator of the Shaman King manga, announced on twitter that he had declined an offer to make a new anime series based on his manga, “since we couldn’t use the voice actors and music from the original work…”
?????????????????????????????…????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Translation via Anime News Network: To be honest there were serious discussions on an anime remake, but… since we couldn’t use the voice actors and music from the original work, I declined. Still, it would be nice to have another chance.
