| Good episode. Titus became a new magi. It was definitely a happy ending. |
 |
| Nice ending, enjoyed it more than the first season. 8/10 |
| I don't read the manga and don't care for its black&white style from what I've seen but I have to agree with some that the last episodes of the anime this season kinda felt rushed. Part of that, I also really found the animation of the bad rukh monsters really, really underwhelming, really. There was nothing epic about it. The only thing epic was all the good guys in their fancy armor (and different hair color lol), and not even their combined finishing move felt epic. There seemed to be a lack of impact here and there. I mean, you really think I was afraid that that enormous assembly of good guys that just kept growing would have any trouble with those bad rukh things? Even if they did regenerate. And the big baddy really should have been brought with more pazaz. Really a shame that turned the final episodes sour for me. I also felt it was weird that we see the beginning of where Morg and Alibaba went off too but then suddenly nothing anymore and they're back. Maybe it'll be shown in an ova or next season (manga readers if you might reply, no spoilers pls). Also really wondering wth's gonna happen with Aladdin becoming a magi for the Kou empire?! And before I watch anymore of Magi wether it's the ova or the new season which I'm sure will come I'm gonna have to find a wiki to list all the major players cause I've seriously lost track of who the hell everyone is. I enjoyed it but somehow felt I liked the first season more. 8 for me, first season was a 9. |
| Magi's adaptation was pretty fine compared to how butchered most works are. |

Mythia said: I am truly disappointed in how this series has gone from an exotic and magical Arabian Nights-esque premise to a generic let's-unite-and-blast-that-villain-with-our-super-powers shounen story. This screams deja-vu and the ending of this season was so predictable. I am fully aware this is actually a shounen but from the point people started to go full-djinn-equip and whatever I had begun to lose faith in this series. Heck, if that Kouen guy had the power to create a volcano on the spot, where's the need for mere human troops? He could've as well subjugated Balbadd by himself to say the least. But no, we wouldn't want him to turn into some clone of Vegeta or Frieza. All the diplomatic and commercial chitchat from the first season have lost all credibility to me due to these reasons. Politics and super powers do not compute. We're far from e.g. The Twelve Kingdoms, to stay in a fantasy setting, but I guess that's mostly because of the shounen nature of this series. It can't be helped. Please stop with all the DBZ explosive fights and get back to the roots of what made Magi's world interesting and full of wonders in the first place. I hope any potential third season will shed more light on what are dungeons, magis, who is Ugo, where's his real master and why did he reside inside Aladdin's flute, to name a few. I might have missed some important points during the story, but are magicians and dungeon conquerors (and their household members) two different "factions"? As in the To Aru series, the former has an innate ability while the latter obtains its powers through a certain ordeal? If that's the case, does that make Yamraiha BOTH a magician and a magic vessel user? What's the point for that? I hope somebody could enlighten me over those points. Oh, and I haven't read the manga btw. I also want a spin-off series with Kougyoku-tan. Pretty please. This is a story of kings and their people. This is a story of the creation and destruction of countries. It's about leadership and corruption. If the fights is all that matter to you then I really do pity you. No, they can't just solve all their problems with "mini nukes" because by that logic, the USSR would've defeated the US long ago or vice versa. You're forgetting the concept of mutually assured destruction. You also can't just subjugate a country with only one Djinn warrior. Seriously it only lasts for like an hour at most, so when the Djinn equip comes off, who the hell is gonna occupy the country when you're powerless? |

| This finale was AMAZING!!! Just fantastic! The gang defeated the medium, woot! We finally saw Judarl and Hakuryuu again. However, lets not forgot able the most important face that showed up in this episode or should I say head. YES, it was Ugo, and he is still in the library of knowledge. WE NEED A SEASON 3! WE HAVE TO GET A SEASON 3! Great season!!! |
 |
| Hmm a decent finale, 8/10. .... Titus with long hair and nearly topless -.- why can't they just make him a GUY, and stop with the girly looking. |
| That was a good season, and I'm less disappointed this time around than with the first season. Loved the 13 extreme magic part, and the part with Mogamett was pretty sad. He finally realized that he was wrong and only acted out of anger, and he sincerely felt that he had done many people wrong by making them fall into depravity. It was a bit heartbreaking to see him regret all the things he's done, though it still doesn't excuse his actions. Anyways, I will be looking forward to a third season announcement, though obviously not anytime soon due to the little material available currently. And although A-1's adaptation has been a little less than satisfactory for me, I still enjoyed the anime overall. |
GuiltyKing said: ^Thank God this mess finally ends. While this time they didn't fuck up the story, A-1 still did a piss-poor job at adapting the source material. Now to wait for the Sinbad OVA, done by a capable studio. Pay close attention, A-1. That is how you adapt Magi. |
 |
| Scheherazade sure loved her country and its people, sad to see her gone. Glad to see everyone working together to get the medium destroyed. So Titus is back, really enjoyed the Leam empire! So what would Kou and Hakuryuu do? Well I sure enjoyed watching Magi every week. Mogamett and Yam a really unique yet sweet bond. 8/10 but the 8.66 as of now surprises me o.o |

If the fights is all that matter to you then I really do pity you. Where did I mention that the fights were all that mattered to me? Please don't get me wrong; I find the world of Magi truly immersive, but I wish they'd at least tone down the battles because, although it was hinted from the first episode, this whole war seemed more like a pretext to bring back everyone for a big brawl, with some even spawning out of nowhere almost for plot convenience *cough* Morgiana *cough*. It felt rushed. And as much as I love Kougyoku-hime, her reaction "Don't you dare hurt my brother and Alibaba-chan!" before going on a rampage was so cliched it lacked any dramatic impact IMO. The whole deal with Titus also felt like forced drama at first and that was hard to swallow. Mogamett managed to save the day though and his tale on discrimination gave an interesting motive for his decisions. Following the hints from some manga-readers, I am keeping my hopes high for the next installment (if I don't read the manga in the meantime). I admit I might have gone a bit far in saying that Djinn-users could only rely on their powers to satisfy their political ambitions. |

You just can't spell slaughter without laughter... |
| Such peaceful ending, the part the Ugo, Scheherazade, and Titus was cute The Seven Seas Aliiance fully Djinn'd up is scary as fuck Forgetful00 said: why can't they just make him a GUY, and stop with the girly looking. Because he is literally a clone of Scheherazade |
| 10/10. Enjoyable ending. :') |

| I have read the manga And after finishing this episode, I am indeed impress with this adaption. The only thing that upsets me is that they didn't show the kougyoku is still under sinbad's spell. Since I love magi so much, and handled almost everything perfectly, this series in my eyes gets a 10/10. Looking forward to the next season, and I wouldn't mind a movie. |

To be honest, a lot of the shounen hax and what not was A-1's fault. The explosions weren't nearly as big in the manga and while they should've toned it down like you've suggested, it was still pretty to watch imo. I really do suggest the manga if you're up to it. It's gonna be a long ass time before season 3 comes around. |
| "whats so special about bonzai trees?" "They are the loli of the tree world." Inganock of the Brightest Flame |
| I feel like the lack of sufficient Morgiana time is corrupting my score for this season. Oh well. Fun season, but it definitely had many dry spells. 5 is the average of 10, so 7/0: above average. |
 |
| Oh god. So it's finally over... I really loved the episode! Sindria allying with Leam kinda surprised me! I'm so happy that Titus is back as a Magi! :D Can't wait for a possible S3 + Sinbad OVA. |
| well at least that's a happy ending.. But it's too hurry ._. I need the season 3. |

| Oh I cried rivers when Titus came back, the song in the background forced me to. That was the most amazing episode, such a beautiful ending. And the funny moment when Kouen grabbed Aladdin and everyone was like "WTF?" I will be longing for a season 3 *o* |
 |
| Still not getting why the hate from people -.- (Even though the 8.66 shows how many tsundere's are around :P) I thought this was done as good if not better than the manga. I personally thought the war arc got a bit dragged by the end of the manga arc but here they finished it in 3 eps which made it feel awesomely paced :D Poor Yamu. Nice seeing her cute loli side :3 And Hakuryuu O_O Titus back as a magi was nice ^^ And u gotta admit that Extreme Magic combo attack was EPIC! I found it interesting how they were showing Sinbad when Mogamett was saying "Even if someone who u think is the greatest person in all aspects, don't entrust everything to him" FORESHADOWING!!! hehe ^^ So yeah, I'm gonna say **** it and give this a 10/10. Loved it from start to finish :P And at least it didn't end with a filler like S1 -.- |

| kinda lame they had to revive a character at the end (something I can only accept in the Dragonball universe) |
| Season 3 won't happen for awhile, it might after 2 years but not this October. The manga is only about 20 chapters ahead of the anime. Currently, the manga is doing a flash-back arc of what happened in Alma Torran and I believe it will be quite a lengthy arc. Making that into anime form, not sure if it would be appreciated because I reckon if they were to do a 25 episode series, most of it would end up being the flash-back arc, so no Alibaba or Aladdin but then again Soloman is essentially a more grown-up version of Aladdin. Someone was spouting crap that the manga did it better than the anime earlier in this topic and one of those who said it was a chap called "Kerozinn". Now I know this guy really doesn't read the manga, the anime is almost panel-for-panel identical. |
| my beautiful Titus yeah he's back I'm so happy ^^ -tears of joy- |
 |
| Nooooooo it ended :( i was so hyp every week because of this now it ended the same with hajime no ippo :( |
Forgetful00 said: Hmm a decent finale, 8/10. .... Titus with long hair and nearly topless -.- why can't they just make him a GUY, and stop with the girly looking. LOLLLLLLLLLLLL. I thought he came back as a girl.... |
| I really like all characters and story both manga and anime good that they ain't doing any filler and following main story thus slowly we won't see next seasons till 2015 at least :) Great Episode 6 out of 5 |
| An improvement from season 1, but the manga is still superior As for the ep itself, it was a good ending and nothing more appreciated from A-1 this time that they chose to faithfully adapt the manga (at least compared to season 1). 8/10 |
| Ugo, Hakuryuu and Judar making an appearance! And that chibi Scheherazade and Titus was just so cute. The anime may not be as good as the manga, but it had great seiyuus who were really in character. Nice execution of emotions. |
| Well happy ending final ep, The medium destroy by alladin solomon wisdoms making mogammet realize his error ways & titus reborn thank to sherehaza..de arg whatever her name is sacrifice. The anime has up & down but still decent adaptation of a great manga 8/10. I want magi brotherhood! |
 |
| Nice ending,good to see Titus alive again and also Ugo's head lol |

Yeah, this episode at least was done better than it was in the manga. The animation was smooth and soundtrack was stable. I really like the added touch of the background in the one scene with Mogamett in the cage and the windows too where the things appeared. Another cool scene was where Scheharazade died. What I didn't like was how they left out the part where it was shown that Sinbad was controlling Kougyouku still. Great episode, very emotional. Honestly, if they had adapted the war correctly (and a couple of other scenes), this would've been a near perfect adaption. Also, we didn't get an anime original ending this time, so that's good. |

| Enjoyable watch for sure. I must admit I prefer the early concept of Magi, finding Dungeons and the whole Arabian Nights feel to it. I know it was only a means to an end, but it was a lot more attractive to me than the shounen mega battles. Still, no question that is vastly superior to most shounen's even with A-1s less than stellar adaption efforts. |

| Damn. That was really good, I'll have to pick up the manga. 8/10 |

| Magi really suprised me. I expected it to be shitty because of the last season's filler ending and expected Chuu to be great because of the last season. how wrong I was, in the end Magi was great and Chuu was shit. I think I will check the manga now. |
| Well... watin for season 3 |
 |
| definetly preferring the manga, the anime scenes were some what underwhelming compared to it. oh well, nice to see it animated 7/10 |

| This show really made me realize why I don't read manga's before an anime is finished. Seeing all you manga-purists flame on it every other episode made me glad I was able to enjoy this anime as much as I did. 9/10 for me, and I'm gonna leave the manga for now untill its finished. And people, please remember: adaptions are almost always unsatisfactory. |

| Somewhat disliked the ending, but it was good overall. I hoped Titus revived as a girl though. 8/10. Time to read the manga. |
 |
| Titus is Leam's new Magi? Awesomeness! I wonder what happened to Hakuryuu and why he looks evil! Hopefully a season 3 could explain and further continue the story. I liked how Kouen just suddenly grabbed Aladdin! I lol'd! Overall, greatly enjoyed this season! A lot of badass episodes and fights, esp towards the end. 9/10 |

| 9/10 man i love me some magi. Apparently when u become a magi ur hair instantly gets braided cant wait for a season 3. |
| Yo |
| Glad Titus got revived and he's a new magi. The feels when Marga reunites with Titus. Can't imagine if he really died and left Marga all alone. MTM3016 said: 9/10 man i love me some magi. Apparently when u become a magi ur hair instantly gets braided cant wait for a season 3. Haha I just realised that. Hakuryuu just became super badass. Though it wasn't surprising that he'd team up with Judal. Wouldn't mind watching a season 3 if it ever comes out. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| Scherzhade!... :/ Her death was kinda underwhelming, I will miss her... Touching scene between the principal and Yamuraiha... Kouen is equally sly xD Titus is Scherzade now! Whoa. Seems like Hakuryuu is against everyone now... 10/10 anime esp. near the end. I am looking forward to any possible sequels, though I don't see one coming any sooner. |
 |
| Great finale for the season. Absolutely loved the ending, much feels. Hakryuu looks so badass. Got to see Ugo on the other side. I really hope for a season 3 soon. |
