Ok, so confession time. I didn't know there was an official dub of Magi for a while. First time was on Hulu, I think?, and usually there's an option to toggle for dub or sub and there was none. I was looking up something else later and official English clips came up and I was like "What?!" Hahahaha.
Starting off on a tangent, but anyway, I have seen the English version a few times now, including currently going through it again. Wanted to say that my favorite English casting is Todd Haberkorn for Judar- sounds like he's having the time of his life being a complete shit, which is what you'll need to play him right.
However, to my knowledge (which can be incredibly flawed, indicated by the start of this post), the English cast have never done covers for their character songs. My favorite voice for Judar is still Ryohei Kimura because Black Sun and The Black are my favorite character songs and his voice is fucking perfect, okay?
Judar is (semi?) canonically a singer. For one of bonus chapters for volume 21, he tells Kouha he'll sing Black Sun for him. I just think it's neat when mangaka acknowledge the work put in from other mediums.
