ok, I berely got into Shaman King again and I've VERRRRYYY lost Could someone summarize the whole manga for me please? And explain Funbari no Uta to me also? I don't mind spoilers because I've been reading the posts here and I think I've read most of them. And more questions: Did Hao and Yoh really become one? Do you think Takei did'n get a chance to explain the whole story because he was rushed to end it or he did it on purpose? And add any info that you think is essential to know >.< I'm sorry for asking so much

Well the manga is pretty closely tied in with the anime, basically to summerize, Yoh meets Manta, and defends him from Ryo, Yoh meets Ren, they fight, then Anna comes. She prepares him for the first rounds of the Shaman Tournement, where he faces against Horo Horo, ice dude, then against the doctor Faust, and finally against Ren. After this Ren faces his father and Yoh and the others help. this wraps up the begining of the series.
The next part is where the shamans go to America. they also run into Hao, and others. They begin a their journey to find the village where the tournement is. On their way they meet the XLaws, Lyserg, and the rest of Hao's crew. Meanwhile Anna, Tamao, and Manta are back at Japan, finding out more on Hao's history. Yoh's grandpa entrusts the 1080 beads, plus a book written by Hao to give to Yoh to aid him. After a run in with the XLaws, the Lyserg leaves Yoh's team to go with them. Yoh then finds another to join them, Chocolove. And when Anna arives they advance their power.

I havent seen all of the manga scenes for the third round, however I do believe it ended with Yoh leaving to fight Hao
About Funbari no Uta, It is a part of the manga that basically finishes the story. It is about Yoh and Anna's son Hana. (Some believe Hana was concieved the night before Yoh left for America.) From what I got from Funbari no Uta was that Hana was in the care of Tamao, and was searching for Yoh's friends with Ryo.
About the last question, I believe something of that sort could have happened. Yoh did look somewhat like Hao in the last image.

Please don't double post~.
It's hard to summarize the ENTIRE thing. It's 32 volumes long. There are scantranslations out, so you can read those, if you want. While it's similar to the anime, there are a lot more events and characters in the manga.
The whole thing with Takei-- I believe it was because Shaman King wasn't very popular anymore at the point he was finishing it up, so Takei was never given the chance to finish it.
