In the beginning of the anime "Magi", one of the main characters Aladdin
didn't know he was a Magi until one of the Djinn users told him.

However Judal knew since he was born that he is a Magi and what is the job he
has to do.

How is this possible?

question
magi
Why was Aladdin not aware that he is a Magi?


As of chapter 175, little is known of this situation.

However, it _is_ known that Aladdin does not have the memories of his early
childhood. Thus, he would not remember his rank as a Magi until he was
reminded.

That said, there are some speculations as to why this may be the case:

However, none of these are confirmed nor backed by substantial proof, so take
them with a few (read: several) grains of salt.
