Soon enough, Aladdin discovers he is a Magi, a magician who chooses kings, and he was born to choose kings who will follow the righteous path, battling against those who want to destroy fate. Follow his adventures as he meets others from "One Thousand and One Nights", like Ali Baba and Sinbad, and fights to keep the balance of world in check!

Who else reads this awesome manga on this forum?

I'm all caught up and personally think this is the best arc of the series thus far. Sheba and Solomon are my favorite characters of the series so far. I personally can't choose which I like more. Some days I prefer Solomon, other days I prefer Sheba.

So, any theories on who could be Gyouken in this flashback?

Also, I apologize if there is another thread for this. If so, please feel free to delete it and link me to the original.

Great manga. One of my current favorites and I have the official Viz releases as well. I hope they'll speed up the release schedule since I am enjoying it more than pretty much every other popular shounen manga.

The Alma Torran arc has been good so far. Not sure who Gyouken could be but Sheba and Arba are the best candidates since they both know Solomon well and Gyouken resembles both characters in some ways. Sheba and Arba share some traits as well.

My favorite arc has to be the Balbadd arc. The character development was well done, the battles were chaotic, and the atmosphere had an old school shounen feel like the Saint Beasts arc in YuYu Hakusho.

Caught up on the series.

It is exceedingly okay.

Manga looks like shit.

I really loved this manga when I read it. It's on par with early Naruto and Bleach imo. Need to get back into it though, as well as Toriko. Grr, juggling so many interests is hard.

I rate it higher than early (and current) Naruto and Bleach but that's just me. Toriko's been really killer lately, too. Both series I think need more love, especially in the States. Same with Nanatsu no Taizai.

Favorite characters!

The incredibly pretty boy, Titus. Don't even need to read it to know. The ****ing things I'd do to him...

Still looks like shit though.

Morgiana.

Alibaba is objectively the best character though.

I've read the first hundred chapters of this, it reminds me of Fairy Tail before it got annoying.

So we're out of flashbacks! And Aladdin proposes world peace! This seems like it will go over well.

Having nothing else better to do I caught up on the manga. My opinion of if still hasn't changed since the last time I decided to read it.

Oh and it even has it own "Naruto vs Sasuke" fight.

I follow, but I'm on the official print releases, so I can't engage in much discussion ^^

No reason you can't do both~

More people need to read Magi. Fun little series if only for the aesthetic and it has some pretty clever writing.

Who are your favorites, last two to comment?

My favorite is still Alibaba but Kouen is definitely up there.

If I feel a major need for more, but at the current time I'm good with the release schedule.

I like Morgiana.

Morgiana's one of my favorite characters as well. She's had a lot of good development and her feats of strength are fun to view.

My other favorites would be Aladdin, Alibaba, Sinbad, Judar, Kougyoku, Hakuei, Kouha, and Kouen.

So a lot of stuff just happened lol.
