Totally shameless "My life is awesome and has awesome people in it" post.
Also an "I'm sure this is relevant to some people's interests" post.
During an evening that included a delicious dinner, a chance to try on a homemade corset, a white kitty that shed all over my black outfit, way too much giggling like twelve-year-olds, and a shiny new-to-me anime series called Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, my friends and I concluded that there should be an equivalent of the Shut Up And Take My Money meme for writers, role-players, and other people who become attached to fictional characters: SHUT UP AND TAKE MY HEADSPACE.
(Yes, this came from a conversation in which
mllelaurel and
wired_lizard assured/warned me that a particular character from Magi was My Type. I have not even met this gentleman yet, but I've been spoiled enough to have a sense of how very, very doomed I am.)

...a shiny new-to-me anime series called Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic...
I might have heard of it, but definitely haven't seen it. Think I should give it a try sometime?

Maybe! Magi is, from what I can tell so far (I've only seen a few episodes), political fantasy with some of the mythology and a lot of names from The Arabian Nights woven in. There's treasure hunting, enchanted objects, battles and negotiations, magical obstacle courses, and outcasts learning The Power Of Friendship. The world-building is excellent so far, and the characters seem pretty engaging. (Sinbad is the one that my friends think I will like, and they did say that he's quite a bit like Jack Harkness, which I have a feeling might interest you.)
