I mean... look at this, would you think a manga called Magi would have something like this in it when at the begining it had a standard arabian nights look to it?
Isaac Smith
I'm more upset with how it introduces you to alibaba and what's his dick then proceeds to dick suck sinbad for the rest of the series
Austin Taylor
Sindbad is a mary sue
Nathaniel Sanchez
Jonathan Wood
how to fix this series' ending:
>cool it with the Sinbadwanking
>make it at least 10~15 chapters shorter
>have at least 2 epilogue stories
it was really simple, it overstayed its welcome by a lot
Colton Russell
>arabian nights
Have you even read the Arabian nights? Because it did feature aircrafts. Alteast do your research before you shitpost.
Asher Jones
This, I was hyped with the Judar/Hakuryu combo being BIG BADS after killing Arba.
And then we got Sinbad's 12 Houses Arc.

And the problem being ? Everything it shows later in the series is foreshadowed or set up.

Even a quick look at the 1001 Nights wiki page will show that it’s no stranger to science fiction/fantasy elements it even has a section just for those subjects. It seems OP’s “knowledge” of the Arabian Nights ends at the Aladdin Disney movie. Hell even if the Arabian Nights had no none of those elements why should that limit what Magi can do? It’s not an adaption of the Arabian Nights so to suggest it should just rigidly stick to a desert setting is just plain dumb.

IT wasn't the authors fault

Magi jumped the shark when it "killed" Alibaba and then proceeded to head into a time skip that shifted the morally ambigious Sinbad from Mentor to one of the main antagonists. And as much as I like Alma Torran as an arc, David should not have been the end game villain because whenever he's around the story drags.
Anthony Watson
But the fans kill The serie user
Josiah Stewart
>the morally ambigious Sinbad from Mentor to one of the main antagonist
This, they made him insane and became hard to believe this bullshit and the ending was real cringey, typical shounen shit ending
Justin Davis
Aiden Butler
Hitman Reborn also had a weird tonal shift, from a straight up gag manga about the mafia to fujos fighting with basically magic.
Christopher Myers
It was never good in the first place.
Anthony King
Gyo is great. I’m still astonished at how bad the OVA is
Jason Lopez
Firepuch perfected jumping the shark and thats what made it great.
Nathaniel Morris
I seriously went WTF when they started challenging Illah itself in dominance of the world then went on to take on gods even higher than that thing because Ugo somehow managed to use science to beat the thing that made science possible in his universe to begin with wait wut?
Magi was comfy being sandniggers vs chink politics not this power creeping horseshit.
Jacob Sanchez
It went from shit to amazing because of it
Tyler Sullivan
Toriko had some crazy power creep in it, like at the begining capture level 10 or so was like super dangerous, but by the end capture levels just got insane.
Samuel Ross
I like how part way in the manga Komatsu just stop being ugly after eating something and they just kept him that way for along time until they randomly bring it up.
Andrew Jones
>complain about the fujoshi, who offered the author advice about cooking and was an actual chef, until she left
>turns out she was the person keeping this shit decent
Jeremiah Roberts
>Then: weird cooking but still realistic things you could cook at home
>Now: just actual supernatural abilities
Jaxon Nguyen
I look forward to the return of Tosh.
Angel Diaz
It's a shame that TG:re was garbage right from the get go but Ishida's cover art is very good.
Bentley Taylor
Isaac Cox
Austin Phillips
>ITT cry about a series that didn't progress the way you wanted it to
Nicholas Perez
Early :re up until rose arc was peak TG imo. It had everything, from comfy SOL to more world building and top tier fights. Series turned to shit the moment Ishida started to offscreen important characters
Sebastian Gomez
I honestly can't even believe some of these chapters actually happened
William Adams
The only good that came out of Magi is ((their)) arc. They really exposed ((them))
Justin Green

Jonathan Reyes
Kill yourself onegaishimasu.
Lincoln Wright
This shitshow. Wasted potential at its best.
Landon Lee
>nobody has mentioned overlord yet
I've never seen a series decline so fast
William Ward
>thumbnail
you're right though. Still I had a lot of fun watching it weekly with Yea Forums.
Grayson Smith
>haha yes, making fun of da joos is so funny and le based amirite fellow 4channers? xD
kill yourself, please
Jeremiah Bennett
jews did nothing wrong
William Baker

Yeah I won't lie I picked this up because of morgiana's feet and was kind of surprised by the heavy themes which I recall included child slavery/prostitution, mass famine/plague, societal commentary and a few other I'm surely missing since it's not so fresh on my mind, but even though I didn't get to see nearly as much morgiana and her feet I think it left me more of an impression than your typical adventure show because it went into some heavy shit without sounding too ridiculous.
Xavier Harris
aladdin a cute
Samuel Price
>actual supernatural abilities
And Akame ga Kill rejects
Caleb Wilson
Why people praise it for its "amazing" (generic) world building as opposed to sticking with the main cast of Ainz and his followers is beyond me.
Alexander Cruz
Mogamet did nothing wrong though
Samuel Carter
For me it became umbareable during the hogwarts arc
Chase Gray
This would have been a beloved cult classic for years to come, instead people look back with disdain and spite.
Daniel Harris
wait is that what happened
Michael James
No, Dave was top tier, the story dragged when it focused too much on Sinbad.
Lucas Robinson
Based shota.
Juan Perez
>hogwarts
>magicians used as tools of war by aristocracy for decades
>make their own country
>improved in every way
>still hated by the rest of the world
>nearly destroyed three superpowers
Jason Richardson
The Hogwarts arc was one of the best though.
Sebastian Bell
>Sex Cults
>Drugs
>Brainwashing
>Hierachy based on the taste of someones pee
The manga of Golden Boy is even more Bizzare than shit named Jojo's Bizzare Adventures.
Camden Young
>TG:re was garbage right from the get go
Yikes
Jordan Rogers
Literally the best arc
David Edwards
I mean seriously
Just look at this shit
This was originally a manga about some really smart guy traveling around on a bike doing odd jobs. But then suddenly it's like the author has an ephiphany and must monologue their enlightenment on sex
Michael Cooper
I am alright with it because my boy got the cute dino girl
Chase Morales
The dimensional travel and sci-fi towns wasn't bad though. Was still pretty enjoyable until the final conflict
Anthony Ramirez
The first few episodes really got my hopes up. When they killed the genie and brought in Sinbad my interest dropped off signifcantly/
