Plus, I mean, come on. How exactly would they portray Chikage getting beaten in a physical match? Punching little girls just doesn't look good, no matter what context... power of friendship is the only way she can be beaten at all, pretty much.

Gotta admit, this is probably the one, single instance I can think of, in all my manga reading/anime watching, where the power of friendship defeating your opponent is actually well done.

God Dammit, Shaman King.... god dammit...

Yeah, this was actually a pretty cool direction for that character's story and I didn't see it coming considering how long (almost 200 chapters) it had had been built up.

Considering he was present for maybe 10 of those chapters... I wasn't expecting him to be built up at all.
