Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic (2012), Magi: The Kingdom of Magic (2013) and Magi: Adventure of Sinbad (2016) are Japanese fantasy adventure manga series.
This mislabels the 2012, 2013, and 2016 Magi titles as manga series. Those dated titles are anime releases; in particular, Magi: The Kingdom of Magic and Magi: Adventure of Sinbad are officially presented as anime series, not manga series.
Full reasoning
The article’s wording is inaccurate because it treats three dated anime titles as if they were all manga series.
- VIZ, the official English manga publisher, lists Magi as manga and specifically shows “Read Magi manga” with volumes titled “Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, Vol. 1”. That supports the manga title Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, but not the claim that the 2012 title in this bullet is simply one of several “manga series.”
- Magi: The Kingdom of Magic is presented on the official Magi USA / Aniplex site as a DVD/Blu-ray release with episodes, discs, runtime, and rating, i.e. an anime series/season, not a manga series.
- Magi: Adventure of Sinbad is listed by Netflix as “2016” and “Anime” / “Anime Series”, again showing that the 2016 entry is an anime adaptation, not a manga series.
So the sentence is incorrect as written: it collapses manga and anime into one category and misidentifies at least Magi: The Kingdom of Magic (2013) and Magi: Adventure of Sinbad (2016). A more accurate phrasing would distinguish the original manga from its anime adaptations/spinoffs.
