2021 and this series still constant to its ideals and themes since its first serialization. The amount of hype and action are packing the whole series while the chapters are on going. Its sexual visuals are still implemented by the author. Overall the series is still as hype or more from its first introduction.

Jagaaaaaan has one of the straight-forward scripts I've ever read in a manga (based on English Translation), it doesn't complicate its messages and points, but they are deep and very related. It is full of actions and scenes that are pretty disturbing and lines that are basically for adult readers (it's a ... seinen btw). The characters are fun and not shallow in their viewpoints. It also has a very mature approach in romance in both scenes and visual. Each chapter is enough but at the same time you want to know what's going to happen next. And again, Jagaaaaaan is pretty fast in approach to its stories, but that what's make this series godly, since it is detailed, not overcomplex and pack.

Reading Jagaaaaaan is like eating a very spicy food, it hurts and sometimes disgusting but you will continue to eat it. Pretty good series.

The series is basically about a Art Club in a middle school with its members as the center of the story and the activities they do. It just your typical one-story-per-chapter, no actual arcs just your typical slice of life.

It contains a bit of romance, like the common misunderstanding clichés, and high school anime or manga scenes. The fun stuffs about this series for me, is the lowkeyness of this, it is so simply executive (the story) that it is relaxing to read. Like that poem or song you listen every time you are tired. Considering its 2021, the new chapters are publish very ... randomly, that's why it most likely don't excite you. But it can be pause to read this series if your stuck up on many brain racking series you are reading or watching. Overall, it is good. But it has also objective potential to be hated also.

In terms of story, Magi is well-versed on the details of the message the author is trying to sent to her readers. Magi is not like your typical shounen story that tackles about power and evil, or selfish personal reason towards its goal. But personally, for me, what makes Magi great is it defines the peek of the ideology it presents, and how the characters conclude this different ideology of them. Magi doesn't want Alibaba to be be a King or Aladdin have a certain dream that connects to the idea of conflict the story presents. In other words, if it is Naruto, he did ... not want to be Hokage because he likes to, but the plot pursue him to be one. Like in the story, Alibaba didn't want to be King, or Aladdin to Alibaba be one. They drive by the force of friendship without knowing their capabilities, but as the plot progress, their idea changes until they conflict this "ideas" towards the other "ideas", which becomes most likely the plot of each arcs.

It is also consist of pretty logical world-building, considering the main theme of the story. The art is pretty much good and constant as the series goes by. The fight scenes are godly drawn and conclude. And most of all, it is not predictable. And the characters are not boring at all, I like personally Alibaba and Hakkuryuu. But as far I finished the series, I didn't hate any character because of their build up or progress. Since each character has been justified by the authors. Overall, it is a solid experience that everyone should or must know.

Magi is one of my favorite manga series since it provides not just action and friendship. But also political stuffs that is pretty much applicable to the real world. When I say political, its by its deep meaning. That is to controlling power for the greater good, in all aspect. And Magi is well-versed on that.
