[enkita]

Repost from Pillowfort. In addition to the text below I will point out that I am studying Japanese but am not good enough yet to translate all without help.

I just bought some Magi anime books and I'm going through them, translating whatever I can with - yeah i know - Google Translate. It's still better than nothing though? Fandom has had 7 years to translate them but I haven't seen anyone doing so (maybe small parts here and there). But all the mistakes can be blamed on Google and please, take it with a bit of a grain of salt as there are probably mistakes for real.

These are the two pages of Hakuryuu's profile. Long post under the cut, pictures included. Parts I am uncertain about are italicized.

HAKURYUU REN

PROFILE

Age: 16 years
Height: 165cm
Birthplace: Kou Empire
Hobby: Cooking
Weakness: Jokes

Fourth Prince of the Kou Empire, currently studying in Sindria. He is aware of the existence of Al-Thamen hidden in his homeland and burns with the obsession of destroying the corrupt Kou Empire. His personality is polite and honest. He is strong, Judar expecting him as a "vessel" from early on, but on one side he is also too weak. In addition to spearmanship and magoi manipulation, his special skills include the power up from the djinn of earth and life, "Zagan". Can further success be expected from him?

He looks like a solid person and actually has a very delicate mind. Why did he decide to make a resolute decision to destroy his homeland?

STAFF COMMENT

Hakuryuu Ren suffered severe burns, lost one arm, various other things. I want him to live a good life, but I can only see the dark future, and I want to say: "Sister will cry!" (Director Koji Masunari)

As a prince, I am basically going to draw him with chest puffed, a smooth standing figure, with a certain amount of power. In the sequel, there will be a different feeling, so from now on I think that'll be fun to draw. I also want to add to the character sheet, I think. I want to draw the relationship between Hakuryuu Ren and Hakuei Ren. (Character designer and animation director Toshifumi Akai)

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF HAKURYUU REN

The first day of his stay in Sindria has been revealed!

Sleep

->I had a nightmare.
->I started training voluntarily.

Training

->Breakfast with Kougyoku.
->Kougyoku asked me to train with her. If I get too serious, Koubun Ka will interrupt me.
->Since Sinbad advised me to "learn from Alibaba and the others", I will go watch him training. However, because he seems to be enthusiastic, I watch from the shadow of a pillar without saying anything.
->I borrow a kitchen from the Green Sagittarius Tower and serve dishes to military officers and civilians who take care of me.
->I visit the city with Kougyoku to learn the culture and economy of Sindria.
->However, I end up having to carry Kougyoku's purchases.
->I write a letter to my sister Hakuei in Kouga, Tenzan.
->I read and study history books in my room.
->Kougyoku summoned me to have dinner together.
->Take care of Guandao and go to bed.

Sleep

THIS IS WHAT HAKURYUU IS LIKE!

Alibaba: He tends to do things alone, but if he has any problems, he can rely more on our power.

Morgiana: He is kind, counter to the impression I had when I heard that he's from Kou. Similar to Alibaba when we met again in Balbadd.

Judar: He has potential as a king. I wish Hakuryuu would become the emperor!!

Studying abroad, the capturer of "Zagan", Hakuryuu is also a king's candidate...!

Hakuryuu, in a rush to fight the Kou Empire, gets advised by Sinbad to learn more about the outside world. Will meeting Alibaba change his fate?

MEAN ZAGAN AND THE STUBBORN PRINCE

- Month x day, cheeky people arrived to capture the dungeon. Oh, looks like this time there is an interesting participant.

Regrettable!
Magi, dungeon conquerors and their honourable group defeat my cute labyrinth creatures one after another. But this boy is just pulling my leg. (t/n: ??)

He's a subborn guy who doesn't want help. I'll have a bit of fun. Mental attacks are the standard!
You really can't do anything~

Oh, are you crying?
I was suddenly cut out, and surprised too... but it seems he is finally showing his true colours.

Prosthetic arm with Zagan's power!!
Hakuryuu, a boy with a scar on his face, finally sought my strength. It's a bit unsatisfactory, but I'll count on him.
