Here is the extra content (choitashi) for Sinbad no Bouken chapter 156!
This time it’s a “bromide style portrait” of Sinbad’s first dijin, Baal!
“Bromide”, refers to a type of commercial photographic portrait of Japanese celebrities, such as geishas and actors.

Update: Revised! ^^
Night 156 “The outbreak of war”
(Page 1) The chapter starts with Sinbad and Seren, who are suspended in the air above the country, facing one of the bridges that connect Sindria with Parthevia. (TN: lol, it’s funny how Sin looks all handsome and Seren is a little chubby ball, anyway…)
One of them says: This is the Parthevian army….
(Page 2 and Page 3) A massive number of Soldiers are getting closer to Sindria by the minute, massive, massive amount….
(Page 4) Serendine speaks to Sinbad: Sinbad, you understand the strategy, right?
Sinbad says: Yes.
And then we have a little square that puts: 3 hours before. And we have all the Sindrian crew + Seren & co. planning their war strategy.
Drakon says: well then, I’ll explain. Then he starts pointing at a map of Sindria+ Parthevia and explains: Presumably 10,000 soldiers are facing us from this place.
This is only the first array of troops. More and more larger numbers of soldiers will probably be deployed after them.
Mystras says: Beyond 10, 000 soldiers… that’s…
Manuscript says: *gulps down*
(Page 5)
Drakon: If a full war (TN: If they use all their war potential) takes place, there’s no chance of succeeding against this great army. But our battle is different. The tactic that we have is “a defensive battle” of holding up a siege.
Hinahoho asks: defensive battle?
Drakon explains: pay attention at the terrain/ topography. The thing that connects the Kingdom of Sindria to the land are only these 2 main bridges.
Aside from these, there is no other way to perform an invasion but to use the ocean to do it. (TN: the only other way to invade is by the ocean)
(Page 6) Hinahoho: In other words, you are saying that just by guarding those 2 main bridges and the sea from the port harbor, it should be enough to protect the country?
Drakon: That’s right. No matter how large the army is, they will inevitably get confined in that place. After that, we should defeat the opponents one by one.
In the meantime, we will track down Barbarossa where the enemy generals are. If we can defeat him, that’s the spot where we end this battle.
We have little armed forces so we have no choice but to fight the Parthevian army this way. Our aim is only Barbarossa alone.
Using the terrain/ geographical features, we reduce this pointless battle to a minimum. This is the only plan we can pursue.
(Page 7) Someone says: As expected from Drakon sama!
Hinahoho says: With this plan, it seems that we will be able to make it some way.
Tamira says: Barbarossa is already wounded… if we think about defeating only that guy, we should have a chance of winning. This is not a battle that can never be won. (TN: This is not a lost battle)
Drakon thins to himself: That’s right, we have no other choice, but this plan. But my brother… Barbarrossa, there is no way that he won’t became aware of it. what should we think in that case?
(Page 8) Saher asks him: Drakon-sama?
Drakon is still thinking to himself: no, we decided to follow our master. Right now we have nothing else but to trust in ourselves. Right? Sinbad…
.
The scene changes to Sinbad and Seren once again.
Seren says: The arrangement is complete from this place too.
(Page 9) Then Seren or Sin says: The magician corps from the revolutionary movement are in the 2 bridges. The household vessel users are deployed in the coast, and in the central part of the city.
The rest of our forces will prioritize finding shelter and evacuate the citizens. They are being guided to a uncompromised section.
(Page 10)
Sinbad: And at the same time this war is starting, we are looking for the Barbarrosa in order to defeat him…
Is that sort of plan okay, Judar?
Judar, who is grabbing Sinbad’s tail (TN: oh no, it’s cute!) comes to the front, still hugging the tail and says: yeah, that’s right. In addition, this power of mine, as a “Magi” is necessary!
Seren says: If Judar is here, it appears that somehow, we have the ability to perceive/feel metal vessels, or so it seems.
Manuscript says: He told me so when I first met him.
Seren: We have no choice but to rely in that power in our search for Barbarossa.
Sinbad is like: that’s why… this guy is here.
Judar says something like: is it okay for you to behave that way towards me?
(Page 11) You, in any case how do you metal vessels plan to fight?
Metal vessels consume large quantities of Magoi. In a battle against another metal vessel user, preserving magoi becomes a problem.
But in that aspects, you guys are different. Because I’m here and I’m a Magi.
Sinbad: “Magi” are able to absorbe an inexhaustible supply of Magoi from the rukh. So, the strategy is that you will supply Magoi for us. I understand that.
That’s not what I don’t like.
You guys, why don’t you go straight to the point? (TN: why are you being so redundant?)
(Page 12) Not long ago, Judar and Falan…. I learned that in truth, you were working together.
Manuscript says: we are from the same organization.
My problem is not in the fact that you hid it.
If Falan is on your side, you should have been able to directly take Barbarossa with Zepar instead me, right?
If the guy is so abominable, couldn’t you have either brainwashed him or self-destruct him?
Why didn’t you do that?
Serendine: ….
Judar: hey… “Zepar” is not almighty you know?
(Page 13)
Judar: You See, about “Zepar” … when you make interference in your opponent with that special soundwave, you push your rukh into their heads but, for that reason you have to take away your opponent's consciousness completely. That “gap” like when you fell asleep in the showdown against Serendine was necessary.
Serendine: Barbarossa is a wary/watchful guy… i couldn’t have interfered without him noticing it that “gap”
But if I had the chance to do it, I would snatch away his life immediately. It’s a shame that it couldn’t happen. (TN: that my “wish” didn’t come true)
Judar: Exactly. Besides, our objective is rather than that…. No, it doesn’t matter (TN: Uh, sketchy…)
Judar smiles in this moment.
(Page 14) Judar thinks to himself: hehe, it was close. That’s right, there is no way to end this battle that easily. Because you guys are already…. (TN: Uh, more sketchiness….)
In the palm of our hands. (TN: Oh Sh*t)
..
There’s the big army...
Seren is like: !!
Sinbad says: The army is starting to move…. What is it? This situation is strange.
(Page 15) Are they… retreating? (TN: Are these soldiers even alive….?)
And them something even more strange starts to happen
(Page 16) in Myers’ side, she has also noticed it and she says: what?!
(Page 17) In ja’far an vittel’s side it’s also happening… Jafar says: And earthquake? And Vittel says: No! this is….!!!
(Page 18) Back at Sin and Seren’s side, Sinbad says: Extreme …magic!!!
Holy ... D: okay, that was it, sorry for taking a bit longer. This is interesting, now we’ll see how everybody fights in this battle, I guess we’ll start to lose people soon D:
This is one of those moments where I forget if this is Sinbad no Bouken or Game of Thrones….
I want to say this is overkill on Barbarossa’s part, but I suppose it’s established how powerful Baal is on his own….
I’m also expecting Barbarossa to give us some Euron Greyjoy level character genocide in the coming chapters…
Because all I can think right now is this feels like Casterly Rock all over again
Currently most of my active fandoms are in the middle of wars or super dark despair of some kind (Magi, Sinbad, GoT, The Strain, Kuroshitsuji ) It’s making it hard to have something positive because it’s so many loved characters being killed off 😭😭

Here are the raws for Sinbad no Bouken 156, “Outbreak of War”. In which the war between Sindria and Parthevia begins...

And that’s all for this chapter! I get the feeling the people who perish with Sindria 1.0 are going to die during battles in this war, but that doesn’t make it any less sad... ;__; As always, I am really excited to read the spoilers later on!
Also, a quick personal update for those of you who are curious. I’ve been in the process of moving back home to my country these past few weeks, which explains my inactivity on tumblr. ;__; But once things settle down over there, hopefully, I’ll be able to get back on my regular schedule. :)
This week's extra content (choitashi) is a bromide style portrait of Baal, which will be posted separately. I hope you enjoy! ^^b
