And we learn a bit about what is at the end of the great rift. Kind of shocking...
Sinbad speaking through Kougyoku was unexpected.

Sinbad?! I guess his depraved part is speaking since there is a dark aura. This is quite shocking. Things will start to get messy around here. :(

I also want to know why he had half fallen to depravity. Maybe one of his Djinn corrupted him? or, An event in the past?

What do you think guys?

Arggg! I really dislike Sinbad now, I never trusted him in the beginning and felt he would turn things to the worst at some point. But damn you Sinbad, leave Kougyoku alone!
You've got to save her Alibaba! I know this will put something big on your plate again, but you are dear to her and she to you, don't stand for this!

Arggg! Sinbad you bastard! I wanted to see kougyoku's reaction to what Alibaba had to say, but you ruined it. That's another piled up block of dislike I have for you!

Also, interesting take on Fanalis. Never expected something like this, so I was presently surprised... A beast race from a different plain eh?

Epic chapter.

Loved Muu''s conversation with Mor. So he went through the same Mor did but continued further.

It was nice to see that Yunan didn't mean it literally when he said u can't come back? He meant it in a different way feeling u're not human and u don't belong?
Totally didn't expect they're actually beasts O_O.
Beautiful depiction of emotions between Muu and Scheherazade too :*)

And damn!!! Sinbad!! WTF are u doing?!?!?! Kougyoku >.<

Well I guess this at least makes it easier for Alibaba to choose. And with Mor being told not to trust Sinbad as well. And Aladdin already not trusting him...seems he really will be the last boss.

Does this mean Alibaba will marry Kougyoku? Since he just might accept Kouen's offer?

I can't wait for nxt chp. Magi has been amazing both manga and anime lately :D

Cool chapter! The fanalis people as beasts?!

But I feel sorry for Kougyoku. :( She's been working hard for recognition within the Kou empire. Now she's being used by her beloved brothers as a possible pawn for a political marriage. Annnnd she's being used by Sinbad, the man she admires </3.

Nonetheless, I'm really liking the twists in each chapter so far. Keeps me excited for more Magi! :D

So the Fanalis are beasts that have tons of magoi eh? Maybe the reason why they don't have much magoi when they are on the normal side of the Great Rift is because to keep the human transformation active takes alot of magoi and their bodies do it automatically.

The samll amount of Fanalis that were shown were shown to be walking on two feet and holding hands with the children Fanalis, so maybe they aren't that savage. They could just be hostile to each other and really territorial/aggressive.

And damn Sinbad! He was cool in my book, but messing with Kogyoku isn't cool!!!

I wanna see more Hakuryuu as well as Kouen vs Sinbad.

Why everybody blasphemes Sinbad?
In this situation we can only come up with theories, yet most of you crowned him with a "villain" title.
Not mention, we already knew that he was controling Kougyoku to some degree, also he already said he isn't very pleased what he is doing nor what he became.
In this kind of situation (Magi world) who can play a fair game? Everybody has to play dirty...
Though if he may turn out as a bad guy, I am sure there will be some kind of story behind it... and do not forget that bitch Gyouken and Hakuryuu and Judal are also plotting something...

Okay, So Fanalis are Realy beast's? So What? I don't care Morg is Still Cute XD Lol
Tough their Real Bodies are Damn Awesome.

So Muu is Going to Protect The Empire that his Master left behind eh. I like that kind of Loyalty. And so, Muu's Fanalis Corps know the Truth about their Homeland? And none Abandoned their Squad? well that is some Tight Knotted Group.

And....o.O..What...? Sinbad? Okay, there is currently Blowing Wind of The Mind Fuck in this Manga. Now it will be Sinbad that is Going to Try make it so that Alibaba stays in his Side....Poor Alibaba. Tough I know that Sin had done something to Kougyoku.

Why it is Always Alibaba that get's every shit thing Happen to him? Or that Every thing happens to Their Group?....Oh Wait. They are Main Characters.

Holy shit, the ending was epic, at first I though it was Gyokuen Ren, but then he said Sinbad.

Muu's story was awesome, also it was good seeing Scheherazade again, since Muu is this worried about Reim, looks like Titus isn't doing his Magi job right.

Now this is a good chapter, we get a little bit of information of what the Fanalis actually are and it explains what Yunan meant when he said that once Morg reaches the other side, she can't return, interesting stuff, never expected.

Sinbad, you sneaky bastard, now I thought that people who said Sinbad was evil were crazy, but over the last couple of months, I've started to see what they meant and this chapter pretty much seals it

Ooh, lots of twists in this chapter. I like it. The real form of the Fanalis is pretty cool.

I don't think Sindbad is the villain that everyone thinks he is at this point. It seems to me that he is selfish, conceited and puts his priorities above everyone else's, but I don't think he's evil per se. Rather a grey character.

I'm guessing that Kougyoku and Alibaba's relationship will be strained after Alibaba's conversation with Sinbad. Kougyoku still blindly believes in Sinbad so I think anything Alibaba tells her won't convince her of the scheme Sinbad is pulling under their nose. So Alibaba might ally himself with the Kou empire after this development.

We also got to know more about what lies beyond the great rift and what the Fanalis actually are. I think they're actually more like people who have assimilated with the household vessel. Does that mean that when Morgiana assimilates with her household vessel she reverts back to her original Fanalis form?

I wonder if the revelation about the fanalis' true form is hinting at some power-up that Morgianna will acquire later on. This also raises questions about the source of their monstrous strength and their true origins: are they a different race altogether from humans, or are they hybrids (half djijns or something?)

The part with Muu and Scheherazade was beautiful and tugged at my heart's strings. And no, I don't think Sinbad is the final boss, it has been hinted for a long time in the past that that father character is. I expect Sinbad and Kouen to be one of those manipulative grey bastards who would redeem themselves at the end. I don't care about how good or evil a character is as much as how well-written they are, and this chapter has elevated Sinbad to the top of my favorite characters list in Magi.

Sinbad has shown he's a man who is willing to do distasteful things to fulfil his goals. Readers don't like it because they feel an affinity towards Kougyoku and the frightening image of her mindcontrolled face, but in the whole scheme of things it can be considered quite admirable, though I am sure Kougyoku is not aware that she's under his spell.

I am more interested in knowing why Sinbad would so readily reveal himself. Is it because he has no use for Alibaba anymore, or that he could win him back when necessary, with the carrot or the stick, or perhaps he is hoping for a certain response? Sinbad's other nature has been foreshadowed many times, so what role he has to play in the end is going to be quite fascinating. Is he a king, or is he just another pawn to some greater unknown power?

Wow the finalis' true forms are kind of intimidating, yet mesmerizing at the same time. Even then, no one who has heard Muu's story wants to go back to their homeland because they all have something to do, or people to be with on this side.

That ending though. Kougyoku looked insane. I wonder what Sinbad's going to say?

I thought the same thing! I think it's the eyes haha.

I'm really anxious to see what will happen, nervous as well since Sinbad is my favorite character (he's really interesting, not the typical, 1 dimensional "good guy" leader and I look forward to the kind of character he becomes). This was a really great chapter though, the main plot is really starting to unfold.

Their homeland and the people were beautiful. Fanalis leveled up from an awesome bunch to super amazing.

Wonderful plot twists. I guess fanalis actually being some kind of beats explains their strength and why their voice can be so effective in battle.
As for Sinbad, I dislike what he's doing to Kougyoku but on the other hand I know he's doing all these things for Sindria's sake. I don't hate him.

I still don't think Sinbad is evil, he just trying to win a war he knows will happen eventually. We know Sindad hates Al-Thamen and we also know that Al-Thamen has currently taken over the Kou Empire, so why not use there general to get info. Mu himself said a War between the Reim, Kou Empire and the Seven sea Alliance would happen eventually.

i have no idea how i didnt catch that the first time though
yeaah i expected sinbad to reveal his true self. i dont think hes bad, but probably only wants the best for himself or people he cares about?

Holy crap, I look forward to more explanation on the Fanalis.

I think the reason Sinbad revealed his hand here is because he really thinks it's a good thing for Sindria for the marriage to happen, like he said. The way he sees it, Alibaba is in his camp, and will work behind the scenes for him right under Kouen's nose. Of course, this would almost certainly mean using Kougyoku without her knowledge, as Sinbad wouldn't want her to know and lose her trust in him. Because of this, though, Alibaba will be against it.
