Shaman King: Funbari Chronicle is a new game for the Shaman King IP, and is definitely a treat for fans of the original manga, the 90's anime, and also the new remake anime. Visually, it looks really really good, with story mode having a nice and immersive manga feel.
Unfortunately, this game does not escape the trappings of an anime gacha game. It feels like any stereotypical gacha game from an anime IP, and its gameplay does not stand out at all, even with the beautiful manga feel. There is auto-battle and x2 speed, which is convenient, but it still has the same tired gacha game mechanics. It's fun, that is true, but I felt that I have played this same tired style for other IPs like KonoSuba and One Punch Man.
