Other Appearances
Amidamaru appears in the anime adaption of Shaman King, primarily in the same capacity as his manga counterpart. At the conclusion of the series, his bond with Yoh is what prevents Yoh's soul from being completely consumed by Hao Asakura and with the combined spirits of all the shaman in the Shaman Fight, Yoh and Amidamaru are able to create a powerful Over Soul that allows them to destroy Hao.
In Shaman King - Hana's Epoch, a oneshot and pilot chapter to Shaman King Flowers, Amidamaru has become the spirit ally of Hana Asakura, the son of Yoh and Anna Kyoyama. As with Yoh, Amidamaru is unwaveringly loyal to Hana, though he also notes how Hana's personality contrasts greatly with Yoh's and worries that Hana lacks a proper outlet for his potential shamanic powers. Amidamaru's role is largely the same in Shaman King Flowers, often attempting to sympathesize with Hana's frustration towards being a shaman and being forced to concede to Hana's unreasonable demands, usually being punished by Tamao Tamamura for failing to keep Hana in check. He spends time with Tokageroh, who had become Wooden Sword Ryu's spirit ally and a friend to Amidamaru.
Amidamaru also appears in the various video games based on the Shaman King series as Yoh's partner.

Famous quotes containing the word appearances:
“We often think ourselves inconsistent creatures, when we are the furthest from it, and all the variety of shapes and contradictory appearances we put on, are in truth but so many different attempts to gratify the same governing appetite.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“What I often forget about students, especially undergraduates, is that surface appearances are misleading. Most of them are at base as conventional as Presbyterian deacons.”
—Muriel Beadle (b. 1915)
