| Whhhaaaatttt???? After they finally got together they ended up seperating? Nuuuuuuuooooooooooo. |
| There are two parts in this episode that I didn't get, both to do with Jamil. 1) In the scene before the OP, he gets attacked by weird yellow monster things. He obviously defeats them off-screen, then we next see him when he arrives in the final room - angry and horrified at what has just transpired. What was the point of including all that? He seems fine again shortly afterwards. Was it just a device to facilitate the fight between Alibaba and Jamil? Or can it perhaps be attributed to my second question... 2) When the dungeon is falling apart, and Goltas carries off Jamil, Jamil looks like he's gone completely insane. Was this just a result of being rejected by Aladdin (the king-maker)? Was it really that shattering, or did he lose his marbles due to a culmination of events? The fast pacing of this story is really throwing me off at some places. |

The fast pacing of this story is really throwing me off at some places. They didn't portray it as strongly as they did in the manga. And as for the second one, I'm just assuming that since he lead a life where everyone was scared to oppose him, he wouldn't be used to taking harsh criticism. So when Aladdin said that Jamil wasn't fit to be a king, it shook him. All his life, everything he has done was to get him to become a king. With Aladdin saying that, it made everything he had done seem useless. |

A lot of the stuff in this show is surprisingly hard to process at a first watch xD |

| I hated the fact that the slave girl didn't kill the master at first, if it was me he would have been dead quick. The pacing was quick but it was still a enjoyable episode. |
 |
| I'm just loving this adaptation. Perfect! |
AnimeFtw1 said: So this show's setting is in like Saudia Arabia or something? Lol.. It's like middle east, the world map is very different but the cultures are quite similar to our world: Chinese, Roman, Arabian, Persian, English, Chinese Nomadic culture to name a few. |

| It's been pretty fast-paced so far, but it doesn't feel off or anything... Really good show <3 |

"Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love." "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." |
| I wished Ugo's head had appeared already, ah maybe next time. The black haired guy from the OP appears and his companion addressed him as Magi as well. Looks like Aladdin end up somewhere in Mongolia or someplace like it. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Great episode. I don't think they changed as much as they did in the first two episodes. Can't wait to see Hakuei. She's my favorite of the Ren's :3 |

| WOW. That was amazing! I hope this series is a long one! |
 |
| That was a great episode. It ended the dungeon part and we also got to see some others that may have the same relationship as Alibaba and Aladdin, or at least some magic users. I like the story of this series, even if everything turns out as expected. I also really like the art. The series will probably continue to grow on me. 5/5 |
 |
| Wow. That was fast. I really hope that they would slow down in the upcoming eps. Anyway, I was expecting that cold Aladdin's eyes in anime version and sure yeah I'm satisfied. |
 |
| Alibaba was pretty badass. Looked like a non-asshole version of Gilgamesh. |

| Wow, that was awesome. Alibaba is so greedy, lol. Seeing his face after they conquered the dungeon was priceless. I'm just really glad he actually got to take the treasure with him rather than something happen to make him loose it all. |

| "among monsters and humans, there are only two types. Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice “Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume “Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus  |
| Amazing episode. Good fights and mysterious plot developments. Always entertaining and a feast for the eyes. |
| Very disappointed. Going the "chosen one" route. Bad episode. Has become too clice too soon. I hope it picks up soon. "Magi", thought the title was addressing magic in general. Turns out magi = alladin, sounds like another show that'll end up wanking the MC and making him do every main thing in the most typical ways. But I'll stick, the fact that he has to guide someone instead of being the king himself shows hope. Unless Ali Baba turns out to be the fodder king who always comes in second. + I like the blood so far |

| Great episode. Alibaba is pretty awesome. |
 |
| Jamil pissed me off, unfortunately I can't see him being crushed by the boulders, I guess they can't show something so gory in this anime huh. I read the manga after I watched every 1 episode, and the anime didn't show any of Alibaba's past -.- |

| i admit the anime does feel so faced past but its nice from the boring slow anime i have watched recently... Aladdin is really a great character so far! |
| Daaamnnn that was a sick episode! |
 |
| A new friendship has started and what kind of one! Really interesting development, the journey continues but they're currently separated so lets see what happens with them next! It's good that they've managed to clear the dungeon and it seems Alibaba managed to gain a genie or similar as well! |
 |
| Morgiana and her strong/powerful legs, wouldn't want to make her angry... Anyway, another good episode. |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| Was Morgianna a victim of Stockholm Syndrome, or was she just stupid? Aladdin is just too adorable! Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| I bet Alibaba is going to have to give all of his treasure away to the slave owner (the one who's wine he destroyed and all the other various stuff) I'm hoping Aladdin isn't the only mage in the show. |
| -i really want to see morgiana more. She's interesting b/c shes someone who doesn't know what freedom is. -at least the slave master is dead. that dude really was beyond saving. |
| I'm seriously enjoying this series. Got to watch more! Great episode! it was funny when Alibaba started collecting the treasure, he wasted no time at all! I'm liking his character the best, Aladdin is super cute though >.< anyway I want to know more about them hopefully we get some backstory soon, or flashbacks either one works. |
 |
| Alibaba reminds me of Fate/Zero's Gilgamesh |
| That was fun and Aladdin's really adorable :D |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| The dungeon was kinda short but still I'm very impressed by this anime so far. |
| Just a perfect episode from beginning to end, absolutely a perfect episode. So much content, it was so interesting and very entertaining and helped solidify me as a fan of this series. |
