Ohtaka’s Backstage Vol.69:

“The characters in the picture are the two magis dressed in Chinese clothes.

There’s a theory that the character Aladdin in the original Arabian Nights texts is actually a Chinese person. 

In this week, Alibaba and Aladdin team up and fight together! When a magi and a dungeon capturer join forces, I wonder what kind of fight it will be? Please, look forward to it. Judar is telling them there’s no way they can win.”

Although Aladdin is a Middle-Eastern tale, the story takes place in China (Turkestan/Xinjiang, according to theories), and the characters are all Chinese. Though, the characters in the story follow Middle-Eastern traditions.
