If you visit Mankin-Trad more than once a day, within a few days you should notice we don’t update that often. Is this some kind of hint that Mankin-Trad will have hourly Shaman King releases!? Ummm… No, and never. But if you were around earlier today, we held a quick, poll. Votes have been noted and a choice has been picked. The votes were there just to confirm my thoughts, since I know how to pick a name. If you have no clue what I’m talking about, then you are a decent person who only visits this website once a day. Thanks for your support! So, going back to the “you have no clue thing,” yeah, once we get things set up, you’ll know. Trust me, you’ll know. Banners, posters, parades, ads, door-to-door salesman, planes flying with messages, creepy letters in your locker, that strange rash on your left hand, that sticky note on that guy who always sits closest to the door and is always the first to leave the room just because he knows that if he isn’t somebody might actually kick him if he doesn’t run but damn he can run fast when he has to but doesn’t join the track team since the #7 just doesn’t hold the same impact as “kick me” does, and so many other ways we’ll let you know that you have cancer we got something new. It’s not huge to us, since we’ve been doing it for a while, but it’s just making it easier for you. It’s like putting the Iron Maiden on a handcart instead of having her jump up and down inside of it to move it.

Also, not related to the other thing, we have a working RSS feed now! I think we had one before, but here’s one that works! Maybe. I don’t use them, so who knows. It still might be having some issues. Maybe. Subscribe Now !

Other updates. A few minor layout changes on the main page. Nothing huge. Comments section is now on the pages instead of in a popup window. A few other changes since we updated our news content system. It’s been a year, so Kami updated it. Send thanks to Kami-sama, one of our admins, he knows what he’s doing, I just try to bring the jokes content. Hey, at least I’m not doing really bad word puns, yet. Give me time, I will master that gag wind. Ever find it funny when you are in a shaft you always find wind? Ok, I’ll shut up now.

Man.Ji.En Part 2 is still in the works. Chapter 267 will probably come out before that, since it’s now in QC. Might as well get that out of the way first. But since Chapter 268 is still in translations, who knows when that will come out. Also, there is a really interesting story about Chapter 267. It’s the new year and all, and it really shows my age. I’ve been a Shaman King fan way to long. Maybe some of you have been longer, but, we’ll see. A story, a scanlation, and a lesson you will never forget, in this heart breaking manga chapter, Shaman King, Chapter 267, coming to Mankin-Trad, January 4th, 2008.
