Wait, is this anime covering up to the Artemyra arc? It should barely be 10 episodes in, and they weren't done with Valefor by ep 6, did they just skirt over Sasan? I fell a little behind on this, but now I'm getting really worried about the pacing here.

Sinbad and Mystras are definitely ones I want to buy. Jafar, however, just seems wrong.

This is extremely shocking! They have no nipples, or navels.

Yikes. I get that it's for the Sinbad anime, but couldn't they have done adult J'afar?

This is...huh. To be honest, more bizarre than anything else, purely because of the weird rigid way they're standing, like mannequins in a store. I'd assume it was meant to be sexy if they were posing in any way, but this looks like bizarre 'how they look like with no clothes' reference sheets with some humorous censoring.
...is this sexy to fans?? I stopped following Magi ages back.

For those who don't understand:

This is from an Arc on the Manga, those 3 ended living in the wild naked for 2 weeks, the Mangaka used the old Occidental joke of the leaves covering the assets for the censorship.

Well, maybe it will make more sense in like a year when Netflix gets around to releasing the anime for us. Ugh.

Right? They look like paper doll figures to stick clothes on.

(Still doesn't make the Jafar one less creepy though...)

Without the...extra details, Sinbad, Mystras, and Jafar look like mannequins with their bodies buffed up.

Thank you for clarifying this. I myself was unclear whether the anime had actually shown this yet.
