BadS just reported in.

Shaman King Volume 33 will could be released in Japan before the end of the year!

Now our goal will be to get English scanlations up to this point, and then do a release from the Japanese manga. So don’t hang up your shoes yet, we are still in for one hell of a ride!

UPDATE: BadS has informed me that Takei didn’t have a set date, he hopes to have it out before the end of the year, but could be pushed into 2008. Go to the forum topic above for more info!
