Shaman King, and D.K. Angel.

Thank you to everyone who responded to my request (posted again below).
I will try to get a HIT out this week.

Original Request:
Hello Oh Wise Ones,
I am working on book orders, and would appreciate help in two areas:

1) Titles of Anime/Manga appropriate for middle school?

2) My students keep requesting that I replace the Goosebumps and
Ghosts
of Fear Street that have disappeared. When I checked Follett's
Titlewise, Ghosts of Fear Street is out of print. There is a new
series,
Goosebumps Horrorland, that will be published next year, but there are
only four titles. 
My question is, does anyone have any suggestions of titles that will
please these students?

TIA,
