This is my 2nd review and grammar nazi are not welcome here bye bye. I first looked into Magi when it was recommended by a friend and i thought at the beggining what is this but after a few manga chapters i was amazed by the depth of the characters, emotions and compelling story.
Story:9
the first chapters are kinda surprising because we are introduced to this world where slavery is a common thing. it also taught us a lot about the cruelty of humans toward this slaves but then the story becomes so much more and begins taking big depths. the manga is very original. The
...
One Thousand and One Arabian Nights are a unique source of inspiration and, as such, Magi brings forth new ideas to the table. These ideas include the types of magic used, new ways of fighting, and unique creatures
Art:9
The art in the manga often takes advantage of the good and evil conflict by using contract between black and white. This theme is prevalent throughout the manga. The excellent use of shading to relay emotion contracts the lack of detail that is, unfortunately, common in the artwork. I have often seen half drawn characters in the background, some have arms in strange, unnatural positions while others are simply missing an arm but its still easy to forget and it isn't that noticeable.
Character:10
This is where Magi shined for me in the great characters that it has. first we have Aladdin a cheerful main character that at some times can also be a super awesome badass. then Alibaba a boy with a dark past who can be weak but can also be strong at first a coward then a person with a brave heart also filled with royal blood. Then we have Morgiana the only badass tsundere that i've actually liked a character that is pretty original and can kick some serious ass you'll always be happy when shes shown in the manga and shes not the tipical tsundere trust me. the antagonist fits the role perfectly. The other characters are quite good and the other girls in the story are badasses and quite awesome.
Overall
Ill give magi a perfect 10 one of my favorite manga of alltime. Read it i promise you wont be dissapointed. Its probably one of the most underatted series out there you could also check out the anime but it has skipped some parts so i reccomend more the manga. pardon me for my bad english if i spelled some thing wrong.
