During the airing of Shaman King, several special shorts, commonly known as Shaman King omake and TV specials, were created for various spirit-related holidays. These humorous short stories all fit seamlessly into the narrative prior to the 2nd round of the Shaman Fight. Additionally, a New Year's omake accompanied the showing of Documents of the Shaman Fight. The TV specials were broadcasted on holidays and after significant points in the storyline. Unfortunately, these specials were not dubbed into English and are unlikely to ever be.
