Magis have hair the same colour of the rukh they use/favor. Aladdin is an exception because he is a magi (made from)/is a djinn(blue).
Just made this up. I could write some shonnen.

Yeah, how awful it must be to write something millions of people love. If only they could be REAL writers instead.
Ohh c'mon dont give me that crap. I was joking about who could be magi and why just making the point that any half assed explanation will do. But you have to admit that most shonen writers could vomit whatever they want into their scripts (as long as it isnt killing the hero or some popular emo character) that fans will devour it without even giving it a thought. That really scares me as species/human being although that explains the leaders we choose.

Episode 21 - HS

Hmm... How should I say it. There was lots of nice effects in this episode and seeing Alibaba in full control of his powers was good after such a long wait, but I was disappointed by the dark djinns. They were like cannon fodder. Of course it's kind of hard to get something similar to the atmosphere of Alibaba's friend back in their hometown, I still expected the dark rukh matter to be more oppressing and terrible. It still looked exceedingly promising when Mogamett snapped and cracked, his old ideals being replaced by the coldness of needing to choose who to protect, who to abandon and sacrifice, but when the attack began, it was underwhelming, despite the effectiveness of the first attack. After that they were merely mindless, hulking dolls.
Now that Kou brought out the big guns, I wonder if Mogamett will finally do what Aladdin feared the most or if Mogamett's role is now actually finished and it's Aladdin & Alibaba stopping another invasion force.
Well, the big issue seems to be that the black djinns just keep coming back because the dark rukh just keep going back and reforming.
Aladdin is going to have to do something to purify the dark rukh to stop this.
Alibaba's reaction to getting upstaged in his moment of glory was priceless.
I wonder how this show gets away with showing naked titties. Is it okay cause the chicks are blue for some reason?
That's true, they are still quite dangerous for the common soldier, but my problem was that even if they are dangerous because they are persistent, they can't create the kind of dread I was hoping for.
Yeah, the blue tits of a giant which aren't shown in a very fanservicey way at all. It took me a while during the scene to even notice there were bare tits. Half the time tv stations censor stuff to boost bluray sales, but it would take a super prudish station indeed to censor something like this. So, I don't see how they couldn't get away with it.
Ah, too bad Alibaba only got to have some real muscles for the first 3 seconds of the fight. Toto would have been pleased to see those results of his training and how manly he had become. :P. Instead, we got some temporary flashy scenes before we're back to "normal" musculature again.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
I just realized that all of the Djinn in the series except Ugo are named after demons from the Ars Goetia.
Which, I suppose is fitting given that the Ars Goetia is part of The Lesser Key of Solomon.

Out now.
Crazy bitch mother is just annoying now. It feels like we're nearing the end of everything, but we still haven't seen any signs of Morigianna yet for ages, nor has Hyakuryu made his move yet. Even if it does take a while to end though, I don't see us going back to some good old adventuring. I really did enjoy those moments the best.

I'm guessing that the black thing is the series' big bad, but I don't think Aladdin is going to let it...I dunno...arrive at this time? It's probably just giving you a sneak peak at it for later.
Wasn't expecting Titus and Mogamett to bite it already.
Me too. I was expecting to see more than two of those towers get done in this series. But instead it seems like they're just showed us those to give us the gist, then introduce 50 characters that already completed towers.
They ran out of main characters that can even use them.
- Aladdin doesn't need one.
- Morgiana doesn't need one, and even if she got one she couldn't use it due to how small her magoi is. She'd be even worse than the Fanalis Corps leader. She pretty much died using from using her household vessel.
- Alibaba and Hakuryu both have one already.
Sinbad is the exception to the rule, by having more than one, much less the seven he actually has. He is a special being. Aladdin already saw that Sinbad is more than qualified to rule the world, though Aladdin also saw the same in Alibaba and prefers his personality and values more. Most metal vessel holders have exactly one, and generally they can barely handle a full djinn equip.
Kouen has a real Byakuya Kuchiki vibe going on. He's probably going to be a good guy eventually.
Also, more Ars Goetia named Djinn this week. I wonder if that means there's gonna be 72 total.
They just said last episode that Kouen has three(or at least, had 3 when Kouha got his, he could have even more now).
I see no reason why Alibaba shouldn't be trying to get more. In fact, I'm pretty sure the intention when they went to Zagan's dungeon the intention was to get Alibaba his second Djinn and not Hakuryuu his first.

Yeah that's true. Everybody seems to have a limit on how many Djinn they can have. Sinbad has 7 and Kouen has 3. So Alibaba could and should get more.
I mean what Sinbad himself said is that everybody has a limit because after his 7th that Djinn said that it was enough. So there's a limit on how many Djinn would be willing to lend their power to someone.
Also don't forget that Alibaba's is one of the most destructive ones out there. Amon can cut through any metal vessel, no matter what.
He can render other dungeon-clearers useless for some period of time by destroying their vessel.
He may only have one, but there is a big difference between creating a giant tidal wave or smashing something with gravity and rendering a household vessel user or even a dungeon clearer useless with just an average attack.
