Things must be going quite well for Magi: Sinbad no Boken as a third OVA bundled with an upcoming volume of the manga has gotten the green light. The third episode is scheduled to be tied to the fifth volume of the manga series that’s due out in December 2014. This follows the second OVA that’s being bundled with the fourth volume that is scheduled for an August 18th, 2014 release date in Japan.
Similar to the other two installments, it brings in Daisuko Ono to play the lead while also including Akira Ishida, Tomokazu Sugita, Ai Kayano, Katsuyuki Konishi and Yoko Hiakasa as part of the production. The series is a spinoff of the Magi series that focuses on the character of Sinbad and his adventuers when he was younger. The first two OVAs tell one story, as the second episode is listed as the second half, and it’s expected that the third installment will work a new story for the cast.
