She took 16 seconds to put four Maurenian Saber-Tooth Tigers to bed! I repeat, SIXTEEN SECONDS!

Morgiana was incredible! She put everyone down so damn hard and a great deal of depth to her character has been portrayed as well. I teared up quite a bit with the slave girl too, I couldn't help but feel incredibly bad for her situation. I raged so fucking much at that slave driver for trying to feed her too, that asshole. >:( Felt really really good seeing her back with back with her parents in the end though. Very touching episode overall. ^^

Somehow I can accept Aladdin being badass, or Alibaba, but not Mo-san. Maybe I need to get used to her not being slave anymore...

Oh,you'd better.

From now on,she'll be whooping ass all the time.That and she'll get to save Aladdin and Alibaba quite a few times.

I thought I was watching SAO when I watched this episode - Morgiana and Kirito, who is stronger X-D
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

^ Yeah, I noticed that, and it is the talk in town among fans in Japan. Clearly some staff forgot to clean the rough sketches and the instructions written on them before the coloring job.



By the way, anybody knows what happens to the Slave merchant? Is he going to show up again? How about the two caravan girls?

The slave merchant won't appear again; he probably got captured for trading with thieves. The manga says he had been a slave himself in the past. It's the counter-example to Mor. She managed to break her inner shackles, this guy could never do it.

The girls haven't appeared again either, but they might appear in the future. The world of Magi is just like that. People who care about each other tend to meet from time to time.

It was a pretty good episode, I liked the way Morgiana was finally freed from her fear and showed us her true potential.We can already foresee a future alliance composed of Morgiana-Alladin-Alibaba.
The opening is always so good to hear as well.

If only next sunday could come more quickly...

I'll give it a 5 stars !

Morgiana is pretty amazing, though I'm not really a fan of the "beaten through sheer will-power" that got her out of the chains. But I hope the show focuses more on her, definitely the most interesting character in the series so far.

It should be whatever Mo or Moru (where we not necessarily hear "u" but hear "r")

Well, yes its hard, but that's the whole point. If they say Mo and not Mor, why do people write Mor?

Because of the manga. In the anime it's hard to tell exactly what Aladdin says, so the fansubbers must have taken a look at the manga, and Aladdin indeed says MOR-SAN.

Well I added it to previous message but decided to remove it and answer here. It is possible that we can use written presentation as basis, but there is no way it is written "Mor" in manga. Japanese language simply not allows it. Mo-san or Moru-san or Mō-san is the only choices.
If Mor is right, then its Moru in manga, but then we should hear some more than just "Mo"

Anyway, it doesn't matters to me THIS much, I'm fine with any name.

Alibaba calls her Morgiana (no honorific). Aladdin's just lazy with names that's why he calls her Mor-san.

Okay this episode in one word : Badass.

Morgiana is seriously one of the best female character's I've seen in an anime in a long time. UGH. SHE IS JUST SO GREAT. Okay, first off, she's physically strong, which isn't something I see all that often. She kicks ASS, but she still has weaknesses - example, not being immune to poisons. She has great dynamics too, and is a really round and deep character in general, something we really get to see in this episode. She's held back by fear and her past, but was able to break free, giving her a little arc and development. She's socially awkward, being too polite at times, but isn't a push over, though I feel like it makes her seem a bit aloof to other characters at times. She's driven, has good and bad points, a past that fits and adds to her motivation and effects her. SHE IS JUST SO GREAT. I love her. It's so nice to see such a good character that really, really stand outs to me. Not that I think any of the other characters are bad, they're all great, and I hope to see more from them in the future.

Okay I'm done now.
But I'm going to have to actually read the manga now.

For someone who hasn't read the manga (and isn't planning to until the anime's over), this anime takes a pretty interesting approach. Both Aladdin and Morgiana are getting some serious screen time while Alibaba is left out completely. I'm assuming from both the OP and the ED that the trio will get back together, but when? In any case, I wish it's next episode because I can't wait to see Alibaba's past revealed.

Mor is correct, because its a foreign name and there is simply not the "u" charakter after the "r" in Morgiana. The Japanese language doesnt have a single "r" so they have to write it with the character they know wich sounds like an "r" and thats the katakana (for foreign words) "ru". If it should be Mo then a "ru" isnt neccessary, but it appears in the manga. So Mor is correct.

Thanks for your input, but in case you missed I explained the same stuff above. I only raised this question because I found a bit strange how Aladdin pronounces it and personally I wanted it to be Mo. By the way her foreign name has nothing to do with it, since we're talking about made-up nickname which doesn't bound by any rules.

Anyway it appears that Mor is correct. Let's move on.

Haha, in the manga there's this beast around the hyenas and the girl. And the shackles are much much stronger. Mor smashes the shackles against the cage several times til it breaks. They made it more simple here.

Clearly, this show should cut Aladdin out and be entirely about Ali Baba and Morgiana. Kinda sucks when the author likes shoving in bad characters for the most main role.

Aladdin isn't that bad, and Alibaba is a bit more the main character than him anyway, specially in the Balbad arc.

I don't know if you read the manga but all of this waiting around and minimal screentime [so far] for Alibaba actually has a purpose.
