3. Episode 7 Recap
In Episode 7, Silva rushes to Anna to ask Yoh to forfeit the match. He fears that his next opponent is so powerful that Yoh may not come back alive.
I.The Infamous Shaman
Yoh is waiting for his opponent at a graveyard. The Great Spirit chooses the venue in a way that will test the full potential of the Shaman.
Shortly, Johan Flaust VIII appeared before him. He belongs to the infamous Flaust family, who was feared back in history. Centuries ago, one of his ancestors participated in the Shaman Fight and almost won it.
II. Johann vs. Yoh
Johann practices the art of necromancy, which allows him to bring the dead back to life. Since they are at a graveyard, Johan summons an entire army of skeletons.
Not only that, he takes Manta as a hostage and tortures him with a surgical knife while Yoh is pinned down by the skeletons. He breaks free from their grip and barely saves Manta.
You can’t kill an army that is already dead, can you? Yoh makes the same mistake and fights the skeletons recklessly and soon going out of his Shamanic energy.
III. Johan’s Lost Love
Johan plays his trump card and summons Eliza, the spirit that is most precious to him. She was his only friend back then when he was a loner.
She suffered from an incurable disease, so Johann studied medical science and found its cure. Later they got married and lived together happily till one day when Eliza was shot to death by a burglar.

That’s when Johann took up the forbidden art that his ancestors performed to bring his wife back to life. He succeeds in doing so but is nothing better than an emotionless corpse who can move.
IV. Yoh’s First Defeat
Johan gets furious when Yoh calls it a puppet. He somehow blocks his attacks but lacks enough Shamanic energy to continue the fight any longer.
Johann is declared as the winner of this round, but that’s not enough to calm him. He was about to kill Yoh for his harsh comments on Eliza when Tao Ren appears out of nowhere and saves him.
He says that he can’t let Yoh die before a rematch between them. We don’t have to wait much longer because they will face each other in the next round.
