An incredible episode.
We got to meet the Eight Generals.
If this anime is headed towards the direction I believe it is, then this will become a masterpiece.

Okay.. This episode had very crappy changes. But my major question..
SINCE WHEN WAS PISTI FROM PARTEVIA? I'm guessing that was a subbing mistake? That's totally not right..
The changes.. They took out fat Alibaba and Aladdin (´Д` ) also shortened that interesting talk they had.I don't understand the point of cutting out comedic stuff to add some anoying emotional anime original bullcrap. Sorry for the complaining xD
I didn't actually hate it though, the generals appeared and their voice actors were great. Hakuryuu finally appears and Kougyoku is pissed.. Next episode might turn out to be pretty good. (maybe I shouldn't be getting my hopes up)

Amazing episode, I loved it. I like the new characters, and the start as a whole. Morgiana looked so pretty, too. I can't wait to see more of this amazing series, maybe it'll be another favorite of mine.
5/5, can't wait to see more.

They cut out the bit where Yamu and Sharrk were pulling away Aladdin and Alibaba where they both called each others name in vain! And a majority of their hilarious squabble in general! WHY?! I was reading it the other week thinking how funny it'd be animated. They chopped this up too much. Geez.

They better do the next ep how the manga is done... For real. Maybe Alibaba was bitten because they want to rush the bit where Aladdin Solomon's Wisdom to try cure him? Maybe it's going to happen before they go to Zagan's since it seems they probably won't have the part after the dungeon.

Still I say BOO. People must read the manga, it's something you won't regret.

No, we'll keep complaining as long as A-1 keeps this up. As fans of the original work, it shouldn't be outrageous that we expect a modicum of quality from the adaptation. Just avoid the forums if you can't understand that.

Huh? Why are you guys pushing the blame to an another anime? Both animes have their own separate budgets, A-1 Pictures does not control which anime will get more money dedicated into it over the other. It just goes to show that there were more third party groups that were generous enough to back up Vividred Operation's budget, compared to Magi.

The quality of the animation was amazing in the first half, but it got dull in the second half as it continued compared to it's quality from the first half. The inconsistency is what he's probably talking about...

Firstly what reason would it not have for not following the manga? It is an adaptation of the manga and a part that was already long since covered and finished in the manga there was no reason to make those changes and they make very little sense. Fillers are meant to be used when padding out the story in wait of the source material to get ahead for more things to be animated, but the anime is not running out of material in fact it has rushed through large chunks that should of been covered better. Or filler could be used for a part of the manga that was not covered well but that is not the case here either. Everyone knows fillers are normally pretty shit anyway and comparatively weaker than the source material.

Also SAO had good animation? You must be blind SAO lacked animation the fights normally consisted of still screen animation and half the time when they could actually be bothered to animate it the quality dropped you should of seen some of the screens that popped up in the forum, much like the morg posts in this one. The only thing that managed to make some of the fights better was Yuki Kajiura's music and even that was weaker than her normal stuff it also sounded far to similar to Fate/Zero's soundtrack and was used to soon after Fate/Zero. The only thing they really bothered to animate were scenes like Suguha patting down her ass and he tits bouncing about. I could write a entire page with my complaints about A1 animation but anyone who is not blind should be able to see for themselves.

Your whole "people dont wanna read a boring manga when they can see it animated" what kind of crap is that? Anime can be the weakest form of story telling since it is the most time restrained of the 4 major forums of media for this type of thing (those being Anime, manga, light novels, visual novels). Parts often get cut out and inner monologue is vastly left out. The anime is constricted to a 30min (counting adverts) timeslot and a 10-26 episode tv slot normally they can not put everything in and you will often find reading any of the other 3 that are source material for the anime counterpart that there are parts that are often glossed over or skipped in the anime.

I have always thought that for almost all things the source material will always be the best of any of the choices. If it is a manga first then normally the manga is best, if it is a light novel first normally the light novel is the best, if it is a visual novel normally the visual novel is the best and maybe less often but still applies if it is an anime original first then the anime will be the best. If you watch an anime adaptation of something it is normally a good idea to read its source material since it is normally better or at the very least as good. People watch anime adaptations of the things they have read because they want to see them animated and/or voiced (depending if it was a manga, light novel or visual novel since visual novels are normally voiced.) They want to see the scenes they read and visualised animated and brought to life through animation or the scenes of the things they read such as the cities, landscapes, characters that were only described, the even the fights they read, they want to see all of these things visualised and given form or more so animated for the fights. Even the emotion on a characters face in a certain scene they want to see it or their voice they want to be able to hear the emotion and feelings in their voice at the time.

You are severely limiting yourself if you only watch anime and ignore the other 3 forms to enjoy this type of media. Also people complain when the animation is shit and things are changed and skipped because it ruins the point of the things they read being animated.

Why the heck would they change the snake thing to have it biting Alibaba? Seems they're changing everything to do with Isnan for no reason whatsoever.

The stuff with Alibaba being kidnapped and forcefully being taken to Sindria didn't happen in the manga if I recall correctly. I can't remember the exact reason the manga gave to why he left but if anyone else can remember I'd like to know.

Wh....where was fat Alibaba and Aladdin? That was freakin hilarious...why would they skip that?.....

Nah, it's always been this bad, except for episode 17, but this episode was simply the worst.

OT:

So let's see:

- The fat Alibaba & Aladdin chapters: Skipped. I can understand them skipping the first chapter, but why on earth did they skip the 2nd? Aladdin became fat because Ugo is not there anymore, and Ugo used to take his powers from Aladdin's energy to get summoned. (and it's been shown a couple of times that Aladdin has no energy left and gets hungry when he summons Ugo a couple of times)

- The training chapters that was skipped will most likely be animated next week, but they'll probably condense them, since why does Aladdin need to learn Magic when he was able to ass-pull magic in the Kouga arc, when he had no idea what Magic was? Right, A-1?

- Oh god the animation, it's so bad it hurts. Just what's the point of an anime without animation?

Btw, there was a mistake in the translation, Pisti is from Artemyura/Altemiura, not Paltevia, since there's another general from Paltevia, and supposedly each general is from a country.

New arc, new faces. It's once again adventure time with MAGI. Balbadd is being reconditioned and the citizens are looking toward to a brighter future - but the Koi Empire still holds Balbadd as a part of its administration. It's thanks to Sinbad's negotiation with the emperor that Balbadd is being acknowledged as a republic. Sinbad informs about the Al Sharmen - the puppet masters behind all evil.

We meet the 8 generals - Awesome.
Morgiana has developed feelings for Alibaba. He is a savior in her eyes and she wants to stay by his and Aladdin's side. It's so sweet <3
Next up is the young prince of Kou and Kougyoku Ren.


The animation did suffer a lot, some where good (Yamu-san), others looked weird or just non-existing (Most scenes are still frames. I even caught Aladdin and Alibaba saying something but didn't move). It's sad to see a party being so non-animated, -make it look like the opening please :P

Aladdin : "What kind of dance is that?"
Alibaba : "Don't know but.... maybe she's trying to compensate for the lack of animation in this episode." ( ̄□ ̄;)

I can understand that A1 needed to cover lots of stuff in only 23 min but that meant to only show the important stuff and cut away "unimportant" funny stuff. Problem is that these small things help us relate to the characters and see them interact with each other in a funnier way. I usually won't bring up the manga, but if you would like to know the characters more, I suggest reading it.
