Chapter 317 is out:

It really just fans my hate for the smarmy, arrogant fool Sinbad and his band of sycophants that do nothing but enable him. At this point I just can't wait for David to do whatever he;s planning so we can be done with it.

[up][up] I'm actually having trouble liking Sinbad No Bokuen because of all the dumb shit Sinbad is doing right now.

I find both Sinbad and Aladdins reasonings to be childish.

I mean, I think that's the point. Sinbad is an arrogant megalomaniac who thinks he can do no wrong. He's there to show how dangerous it is for everyone to submit to one man, no matter how great he appears.

Except David himself. He's perfect right down to accurately knowing the future where everyone looks back on Alma Toran and looks at them through the hole he makes with his hand with that stupid broad Arba eternally eating from the palm of his hands.

[up][up] But I think we're supposed to root for him in Sinbad no Bokuen and I just... Can't, because he becomes such an egomaniac.

I think that's the trick being played on the audience. We read it and from the start root for Sinbad since he's the hero, until at some point we realize what a mess he is. It's basically a Start of Darkness story, but it's not until way in we realize we are reading the backstory of the villain.

Did you forget the Slave Revolt he started that would get tonsof little kids killed. In retrospect what Halu did to that woman was just deserved and her child thralls just needed to get over it.

[up] The problem is, revolt will almost always result in collateral. Except you can convince everyone, on personal level to basically smoothing everything to minimal damage, you'll have trespass some personal right of people that... basically just doing their job. And let's not starting with aftermath of a revolt.

On Hakuryuu beheading Aum Madara: Killing enemy leader in front of their soldier to break morale was practically stock tactics since ancient times. In restrospect, what Hakuryuu did wasn't really different than typical Kou military leader.

Kougyoku was awesome in this chapter, she's had such good development. I'm proud of her. No wonder Aladdin likes her.

Chapter 319:

Sinbad got played, and descents into rambling in his own head. Without David voice, he's totally lost.

And at that time Arba shows up.

Just when it looks like someone finally talked some sense into Sinbad , he turns around and goes "nah, Imma gonna do it anyway!" This guy is just incorrigible.

That was a really cute Ja'far moment. I'm sad at how ignored it was.

Well, at least Sinbad stopped pretending he's doing it for anyone other than himself. I'll take a honest bastard over that any day.

Well, that's the end of the line for Sinbad, I guess. Ugo really ended him right there.

Of course it was all a ploy to deliver David rukh to the palace. And for that he planned everything... except the fact that Ugo is quite a bit stronger than he though.

Kinda weird that such important events are happening and the main characters are none the wiser.
