But does he really have the ability to stop the apocalypse--and save Ultimo!--in just 24 hours? On a breakneck tour to meet up with all the doji, Yamato gets into a skirmish with Iruma and Jealousy and must again go back (way back) in time to make things right...Author BiographyUnconventional author/artist Hiroyuki Takei began his career by winning the Osamu Tezuka Cultural Prize (named after the famous artist of the same name). After working as an assistant to famed artist Nobuhiro Watsuki, Takei debuted in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1997 with Butsu Zone, an action series based on Buddhist mythology. His multicultural adventure manga Shaman King, which debuted in 1998, became a hit and was adapted into an anime TV series.
