Why Sinbad sided with Kouen: Because Kouen is bigger. His assets (several loyal Metal Vessel and Household Vessel users) is (mathematically) bigger than Hakuryuu (a Magi and 2 Metal Vessels). Sinbad playing it smart, it's more of alliance of convenience.
Besides, Hakuryuu is driven by what it seems as blind hatred (declare war when main perpetrator of his suffering is [supposedly] already dead), that makes him loose cannon. You do not work with loose cannon if there's alternatives. Kouen might be ruthless and dangerous, but he is more stable and predictable. Also, Judar. From what we sees so far, it is probable that Judar has gravely wronged Sinbad in the past, which is probably related with Sinbad's Depravity. From there, we can assume that Sinbad assumes that everything related with Judar= BIG F***IN PROBLEM. DO NOT WANT. Judar allied with Hakuryuu makes Hakuryuu automatically enter Black List. About Alladin and Alibaba being naive: Well, they always success with idealist ideas in the past (admittedly, to some extent). There's no reason to stopping it now. They can convince Hakuryuu: war averted, can't convince Hakuryuu: at least they tried, and they did notioned that possibilities. |

Sinbad is an opportunities, a shrewed merchant, diplomat and OP fighter. He will try to rake in the most profit using the least amount of work with almost no risk. He will watch the 2 tigers fight for territory, then collect their pelt, meat, bones and steal their lands.

Unless the story goes crazy again, the dynamic duo will fail, the 2 will fight and Sin will win the whole thing after enjoying his popcorn.
Of course with the way the story goes but to make Haku crazy evil, maybe the duo will triumph just because. |

if anything, Sinbad should not side with anyone and just watch them fight it out. Its just not a good idea for him to support Kouen given kouen's ambitions and his past support of Al Theman... heck, Sinbad believes that Al Theman might still be alive; for all he knows Kouen could try restoring Al Theman to power rather than finishing them off. Quote:

Well that's what it sounded like Sinbad decided to do after the summit. He said that he would cooperate with Kouen claiming that it turns out he is now against Al Theman instead of allied with them... a claim which doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. Again, as said above, Haku was the one who took the spear to Al Theman; for all he knows, Kouen might try to restore Al Theman's power so he can keep using them for his personal ambtitions

New Sinbad chapter is out. It's Pisti's homeland this time and I can see why she's so easy when it comes to hot guys. Artemyra women all seem to be pretty open-minded about flirting and courting. And Sinbad being Sinbad, he just take it like a boss. This is probably where he had his infamous accident with women.
Spoiler for One big party Tonight!!!!:
Someone get me a ticket to Artemyra, please

Chapter 252 is just awesome. Reading Hakuryuu is like giving a big slap to all those Shounen's Talk no jutsu characters. What's wrong with more than one kind of justice, huh ?. Different people have different viewpoint. And Hakuryuu hit the nail about Kouen. How can a guy that let loose a world-destroying organization can be considered a good guy ? It seems like despite his angsty mind, he and Sindbad are the only two people that actually know how to think logically, considering the state of the world.
I'm very interested in what Alibaba gonna do after this. What kind of reason will Ohtaka give him so he can argue back at Hakuryuu? Man, their battle in both ideal and fighting sure will be fun. Spoiler for Hypocrisy:

Big slap of what? Hakuryuu is twisting Alibaba's word to his own version. You sounded like Alibaba is doing those "nice things" because he want them to worship him. Alibaba is genuine a nice person here and it was sad to see people trying to downplay his character.
Hakuryuu is just insane. Whatever your reasons were, killing people; especially involved with mass civilians for your own selfish goal is simply wrong. You think Hakuryuu really care about the world being and what Kouen did? He is simply using "Kouen being villain and must be punished" card just to justify his bloodlust. You know what? Even if he killed Kouen, he will simply find another excuse to execute Sinbad on later. Last edited by Sixth; 2015-01-16 at 07:27. |

No doubt Alibaba is naive, at times annoying, and always optimistic. But in the end, what's wrong with that? There's nothing wrong with trying to find goodness within despair. As long as he knows where to draw the line between redemption and truly evil, and Alibaba's journey is showing his growth from a boy into a man. |

Well i can say Hakuryuu is riding crazy train with full speed now but that doesnt change if his arguments is right or not , Alibaba was just pressing him and putting salt on his wounds but he just used that to kill him which may be wrong even so what Alibaba did isnt right .
Lets talk about Kouen which is practically Hitler of Magi but Hakuryuu doesnt care about that much he just want to kill him and using that for his own merrits . Its funny how people are siding with Kouen i mean if Nazis lived would you guys cheer for them , Hakuryuu may be crazy but his argument about Kouen isnt wrong at all . What alibaba is offering Hakuryuu is death now matter how you look at it since when black ruth person looses his resolve he dies anyway no matter what if Hakuryuu cant succeed he will die there is no going back for him . Hakuryuu is standing against a Dictator like Kouen while even the main character accepts to become a slave and bribed , yes Hakuryuu doesnt give a shit about Kouen being a Dictator and he is controlling people with his djinn but doesnt Kouen does the same ? So if you control people by slavery and force its ok but if you change it to a djinn you are evil ? No both these ways are evil there is no doupt , Hakuryuu is evil too so does Kouen .

Kouen would clearly be stalin if you bring real world ideologies into play, as his empire as the entire standardize everything mentality of communism.
Hakuryuu would be be close to hitler, as he has the purge everyone of a certain group mentality (aka kouen faction/family/everyone he knows) as well as the whole mind rape charisma. neither is good but Hakuryuu is clearly worse in more respects to modern day moralism. There is very little justification for mass mind raping and as Judar points out in the manga it's just a excuse so he can kill things, Haku's not actually doing it for the greater good or anything.

ohtaka has made a very interesting speech for this chapter. now, that alibaba shady ways has been showed, i suppose that he is going to run and think about his action for a few chapters...which is good thing, because the civil arc look very promising! and i don't to see his bs speech weakening kouen! but, in the immediate future, i think that Hakuryuu want to try "solomon wisdom", because he yelled that he is going to kill aliababa (according to the imperial edict) for trying to stop the war, and support kouen (because kouen is never going to stop the war) with aladin and judar watching. -the ideals battle need to be with kouen, alibaba bs got owned in this chapter. Quote:
Quote:
Hakuryuu that is just "differently sane]" *hitler? are you sure? * he has only minf*cked a 300-500 soldier(that were working for a genocidal ruler- criminals/kouen have a monster division too) and killed arba, a hot crazy girl that was trying to burn the world ...again (he is quite a hero) *the "purge"- he is in war against a much more powerful rival, not against civilians / kouen have the 80 of the empire - that he is going to do ..is "liberate " balbadd from war criminals,usurpers and stop the caste system* and, till now, the whole "lets burn the world" is just a expression(for now)....Hakuryuu need the different s forces help(allies, like in this chapter where he offered aliababa his throne) to crush kouen _______________________ "Haku's not actually doing it for the greater good or anything." well..he is doing it for his own good. Quote:
and, he have truths in his twisted way, and actually is changing the world (not like the other dude , that want to protect balbadd citizen, but is happy with the idea of they living like 3 class persons with an active slavery system- and actually join to the warmongering country that is going to bring more pain to other cities) the issues here is that ohtaka decided to make him a edgy lord, when there was no reason for that movement. ohh well, sinbad is going to crush him Quote:
alibaba is not that naive, this chapter showed how he use good intention to change other and create his own world *and how he actually choose his word swith caution* but he still lack commons sense and a tactical mind...any country ruled by a person like him is going to burn, bringing a lot of pain to the world.
