I kinda want him to accept. I mean, it'd add some nuance to the protagonists without being a cliche Sasuke Uchiha situation since it's not like all the powerplayers involved are totally clearcut "good guys" or "bad guys". While the eternally pure Naruto/Luffy shounen protagonist who always says no to this sort of deal and is one dimensional in their unwavering corruptibility is nice and all, we already have one in the form of Aladdin. It'd add an interesting conflict and dimension to things.

Aladdin has chosen Alibaba as his King, theyve got to break off from Sinbad eventually. I wouldnt be surprised if this is the catalyst.

I know it's the manga thread, but the latest episode of the anime just covered Mogamett's history lesson and I thought it was really well done.

Sinbad used some sort of sound based mind-control power when they were sparring back in Sindria, he was about to active it after they defeated the giant, and now we're finally seeing what it actually does.

Can you imagine how awkward it would be if Sinbad continued speaking through Kougyoku through their arranged marriage?

It is interesting that there now is a rather strong example of how hosed up Sinbad is, especially in context with what other people have been saying about him or how they generally react to him.

God's Chosen Ruler 2. Maybe by revealing this Aladdin wants to broker peace between the empires (as a war will destroy the world just like Alma Torran) but that obviously won't happen. Sinbad's ego will probably swell to enormous proportions at the news and all hell will break loose.

So, I'm watching the anime for this and it's pretty good - how faithful is it to the manga? When I run out of anime will I be able to just continue onto the manga seamlessly or will I need to reread the whole thing?

I don't think you'll have any problems in just picking up the manga where the anime leaves off. There are one or two hiccups, and it went off track a bit at the end of the first season, but then it went back on track for the second one.

I'm amazed at how crazy this has gotten by where the anime is - somehow it's ended up at the point where you're cheering on wizard nazis lead by Dumbledore Hitler because they're more sympathetic than the other guys, but then makes you feel bad for cheering them on because they're still wizard nazis fueled by the souls of dying children.

So Soloman can literally control the basic flow of magic through the world.

It may very well be correct. There was just a lot of paraphrasing involved.
