“Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic” Recap of Episodes 1-9

Hidden all over the world are historic ruins from ancient dynasties called "dungeons" which house and lots of hidden treasure, including the "Djinn's Metal Vessels", items that hold immense magical power. The young protagonist Alibaba, who works in the desert oasis city Qishan, is just another who dreamed of turning rich overnight by "capturing dungeons".

One day, Alibaba meets Aladdin, a young boy who wields magical powers, and the two decide to capture one particularly difficult dungeon. There begins the great adventures of Aladdin and Alibaba.

Adapted from the official episode guide:

The story began with Alibaba before he met Aladdin and the rest of his acquaintances in the series. Alibaba was born in the slums and later taken in by the king to be raised as a prince in the palace until it was attacked by Kassim, who betrayed him. However, Alibaba forgave Kassim and joined the Fog Troupe to help fight for the people. This continued until his rendezvous with Aladdin in the Kouga village, after which it became a tale of two.

"It's OK. We will think it through together."

However, just as Alibaba was about to accept Aladdin's helping hand, Kassim appeared again.
