| Nooo granny please don't die !! |
| -yes, granny died. I was shocked at first but slowly smiled at the same time. |
| NOOOOO not granny!!! I did not want her to die, she was so sweet. Im sad now :( and then Aladdin is all happy waiting on her to return his first time being apart of a family. these feels! |
 |
| dat last second. was not expecting that. |
| Saw that one coming. Everyone's happy = too good to be true. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Eh...it's okay. The first episodes were great, juvenile, yes, but still fun on its own right. Now.. eh.. |
| Fight Club > Anime Scott Pilgrim > Manga Death Cab for Cutie > Yuki Kajura "Who'd you rather be? The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?" MY REVIEWS! READ THEM. http://myanimelist.net/profile/StillSwingin007/reviews |
| Very fast paced episode. Wow, such a sad ending. I absolutely love Aladdin. It's too bad for the grandma, I really enjoyed her :( |
| Oh shit, granny got killed! Although, you could see that coming from a mile away. I wonder who the assailant was, wouldn't it be ironic if somehow it was the princess, she was secretly some vicious warlord. |
 |
| So what I'm thinking is that the Princess has all the right intentions but doesn't have the trust and respect of her army as a general. So they keep doing shit when she clearly doesn't want them to. Killing the grandma might be an act in retaliation for stealing the women back from their capture and also an act to attempt to start war |
| Nooo , those SOB killed baba *throws fit*. The arrow scared me when it came from above. Aladdin was just learning about family. |
The higher I get , The lower I'll sink. |
| Yep it was too good to be true, everyone being happy and all and then the fatality :c . Great episode overall. |
 |
| Wow I was not expecting that ending at all! |
 |
| Regardless of weather they kill any of the enemy, the enemy had already declared war by kidnapping their women and using violence in their meeting earlier. Surrendering to the empire wasn't a surprise, that's pretty much what they were already doing. The arrow to the back was even less of a surprise. I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did, what with their spineless leader and everything. Men make better leaders. There are to very foolish extremes: being to eager to go to war, and being to avoidant of going to war. If there is an immediate threat to your safety and your freedom and you choose not to fight then you by default surrender. |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA THAT ENDING. This anime just loves plot twists. How was anyone supposed to expect that creepy shaman to die? Makes me wonder who killed her. For the most part, this episode was pretty boring up until the last scene. Okay episode. I hope the story quits focusing on Aladdin. I hardly give a shit about him and want to learn more about Alibaba and Morgiana. 6.5/10 |
| RIP Granny |
 |
| Holy hell why did Aladdin get flung that far away?! AND GRANDMA!!!!! |
 |
| Elizabeth de gozaimasu is here again! :D |
| 臭い- |
| Oh my god, they killed granny! |
| Did they really have to do us like that? LOL the granny gets shot, then they show a scene where Aladdin says "I hope granny gets back soon." savages |
 ♔ caught in the wonder ♔ |
Tyrel said: those punk ass kou warriors cant follow orders and do what they want its like their leader isnt even their leader, she must strip them of their titles and rank people like that have no need to have such power in a kingdomWow..I knew that would happen at the end, "And I must live on also" >Arrow gets fired at her. |
| So Alibaba used all of his fortune to free the slaves, that's really nice of him. Morigiana doesn't seem to have words for this :P So Aladdin learned more about what an magi is. Now it makes definitely more sense as before. He really like that old baba. The Kou princess seems to be very wise, but that one guy who was with of course has to be an total douche.... Of course at the end where you thought everything is okay, something like that must happen to old baba ;_; |

| Maybe I'm overthinking this, but the use of a princess not as a treaty marriage arrangement is unheard of in east asia (soldier clothing is definitely han dynasty). Mongolia, Tibet, China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam didn't adopt this practice. I think using women diplomats were impractical as nations would regard the practice as mocking the seriousness of the diplomacy as well as general sexism of women considered "unmerited" for the role. Purely for artistic reasons they use a fictional princess as the height of insult to spearhead negotiations with the tribe that is a shell of it's former glory. Now we know that is the plains and a two week caravan ride to Alibaba. This suggests that this smack bang around what is now western China and historically the Han dynasty's far western holdings. People should read up on history, this tribe may be inspired by the xiongnu empire. The same empire that repeatedly raided and invaded and bullied the Chinese emperor into paying expensive tribute and forcing princesses to marry to them. Quite the opposite of this sob story depicted, depending on the era of history you choose to focus on. Second, the Chinese were one of the few civilisations that did not deal in slavery as a significant portion of their economy. Confucius was disgusted with this practice and off course China has abundant human power at their disposal. In fact, several times in history, emperors outright banned the practice, though that is not to say some merchants still dealt in illicit dealings with rich owners for slaves along the silk road. Ironically it would be the ancestors of this 'peaceful' little innocent village that went around bullying countries into paying tribute and raiding their lands for slaves on the silk road and for their own uses. The Chinese finally got fed up and financed expensive expeditions into their territory with no financial gain (the very opposite of what sun tzu would suggest) just to overthrow this system and perhaps strengthen their border security from eventual annexation. This shows the aftermath of the collapse of the xiongnu empire and their retreat where they will pop up on Rome's borders as the hun scourge. |

| Nothing can happen until you swing the bat. |
| Called it, Bandits always get their revenge.. its stupid to let down your guard after humiliating someone. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Well that wasn't a happy ending. What an unexpected turn of events. |
| Ehh, I'll give this show one more episode before it gets dropped. I've never read the manga, but even I can tell the pacing is absolutely horrendous. It literally feels as if the series is on speed or something, especially with this episode. It's as if the characters and plot introduced here were literally just skimmed through as if I was reading a wikipedia article animated. No time to get attached to anything that's happening, and the world building is insanely confusing due to the fast pace. |
| Holy crap, I'm not saying she deserves to die but... How could she even think about joining them if they hurt her children and even kidnap them before already? LIke can you imagine how bad it will be once they are their vassals? And that Ren girl is naive and dumb, how does she want to achieve such a dream and still keep such subordinates with her... |
| Damn it, hope granny is going to make it :/ |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| oh boy both sides are being manipulated in to starting a war, princess is dumb i would have send the guy who stepped out of line to dungeon, she can't control her own men then she doesn't deserve the power from the dungeon nor to rule |

| rip the old granny |
 |
| She died like a meme |
| Why i can predict the arrows comming?, i was really worry about that whole time when the granny took so much scene at the end when she was alone... |
| Well, now there will be a war, won't there? |
 |
| the end actually didn't that surprised me lol, the minute that granny walked away from the fire i saw a death flag on her. the thing is, i thought that this would continue, i didn't thought that it was already 20min lol. the pace may be fast, but the direction is pretty darn good. funny though how alladin were thrown in a village right before some political issue coming there. but the way it seems, it might be deliberated, because he suppose to control peace and such that the rukh took it there. |
| gramma nooooooo ripperonis |
