It started serialization in Weekly Shōnen Sunday in June 2009. The individual chapters are published in tankōbon volumes by Shogakukan, with 32 volumes currently published as of January 2017. Magi also has a spin-off/prologue manga series, Adventure of Sinbad, which started serialization on May 8, 2013 in Weekly Shōnen Sunday but was moved to Ura Sunday in September 2013. The manga was adapted into anime series by A-1 Pictures and thus far two seasons, each consisting of 25 episodes, were produced. There were also made three video games adaptations: Magi: Hajimari no Meikyū, Magi: Dungeon & Magic, and Magi: Aratanaru Sekai. Aladdin, the primary protagonist, is traveling a desert land, with a magic flute that summons a Djinn named Ugo. The Djinn has a huge and muscular body, but cannot remove his head from the flute, giving him a headless appearance and frequently causing even people he is trying to rescue to mistake him for a monster. The two meet Alibaba Saluja, a seemingly greedy and aloof young man who is trying to get rich, and realizes that Ugo would be a powerful ally to explore a nearby treasure-filled dungeon. As they adventure together, they become true friends, along with Morgiana, a slave girl from a distant land that they free from her master. The three encounter other Djinn and find hints that they may be destined to decide who will rule the world.
