When we think of reboot anime, we tend to think about series’ such as Full-Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Fruits Basket, Hunter X Hunter, or even Trigun or Sailor Moon! While they are all incredible series’ and deserve the reboots they got, there’s one series that I truly believe deserves a reboot: Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic.

For those who don’t know, Magi was a Japanese Manga and anime series following the adventures of a young boy named Aladdin and his friends, Alibaba and Morgiana that ran from 2009-2017 and the anime ran from 2012-2014. The anime left off where the ending of the Magnostadt arc had occurred and both Judar and Prince Hakuryuu of The Kou Empire teamed up and were plotting something sinister.

The series was rumored to be getting a third season, however, time went on and the third season never came to be. Part of it was due to poor advertising for the series, and also the series just became forgotten as time went on.

With Shinobu Ohtaka’s current series Orient receiving an anime recently, I propose that Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic should receive a reboot anime series. One that follows the series from the beginning to the end.

For this petition, there are four things that we who signed this would like to see for the reboot anime:

1.A new animation (good animation as well) and the cast from the original anime reprising their roles.

2. The new anime will closely follow the manga to the exact details. No anime filler arcs or unnecessary changes.

3. The anime will follow the manga from the beginning to the end of the series.

4. Better marketing for the series than how it was handled in the past. Meaning social media accounts, official anime updates, and more.

Magi was an incredible series and is considered a hidden gem in the anime/manga-loving community and deserves to have some form of attention! With this reboot, we can finally see what happens to the lead characters Aladdin, Alibaba, and Morgiana on their adventures, animated!
