Another good episode!

I see more drama from Kassim. He's not exactly who he once was before tbh. I lol'd when Aladdin hit Alibaba's head when he was over exaggerating about the present events. Ha!

I liked watching Sinbad fighting Alibaba this episode as well. What a boss. The Alibaba rage is strong in this episode. I think he needs to chill a bit. What I really liked was the ending though, of Judal walking like a total boss there.

My body's ready for next week because of this:


Judal :>

That was my favourite moment as well. I loved how Aladdin remained cool headed and suggested that they should think things over first before acting reckless.

Can't wait for next episode and for Judal <3

I think Aladdin needed to hit Alibaba a few more times on the head to cool him down. Once wasn't enough.

Masrur is so damn powerful.

Wow, we're already at that part nxt ep??
Isn't that like chap45-50 stuff? With this pacing I don't really see Balbadd lasting til ep 25.

Anyway...awesome episode.
Love how Aladdin is always calm during all situations.
Sinbad was BA and hilarious...loved Jaffar reaction when Sinbad decided to join the Fog Troupe XD

I guess I'm the only one who thought this episode was plain horrible. Wtf was with the animation and all those derp-faces? The fight was also plain horrible, this adaptation just keeps getting worse and worse, good job A-1 Pictures for ruining yet another adaptation. I just hope they won't mess up next episode, but from the preview I guess they will.

Good to see Banker in this episode, though I'm not fond of his voice, his voice should've been as creepy as his looks.

A-1 likes to derp hard.
They put lots of shows on their plate and they end up half-assing mostly everything they touch.


Oh boy. Judal and Aladdin are up next.
Hope there's not too much derp and rushing there because those will be some of the best moments thus far.

They can pretty much be done with the Balbadd arc in about ~6 more episodes and that's probably generous. D;

Well even if they're not doing a lot of shows, SAO is taking all of their resources, it's the show that is milking money the most, why wouldn't they put all their money and effort in it? Luckily 3 weeks are left and hopefully the animation for Magi, Shinsekai Yori, and Uchuu Kyoudai will improve, although the last one doesn't need any improvement.

Dang Alibaba's new fire abilities are sick! Too bad he still got schooled by Sinbad though..... Sinbad's whole crew is badass as a matter of fact! Fanalis dude is like the freakin Juggernaut and Jafar's got some Scorpion kunai action going on! I wonder how they're gonna deal with that douchebag King, and that dude with the black butterflies looks like a big deal. All in all good episode.

Guys, the animation is getting exponentially lazier. Just look at their eyes, which are crooked numerous times, and the people in the background, whose facial expressions are hilarious.

Well, aside from A-1 Pictures allocating resources to the wrong show *cough*, was a pretty good episode. Looking forward to that next one.

Suguha's boobies? No, seriously speaking, have you watched last week's episode? You can rarely see any derp-faces, the choreography was also top-notch, especially Kirito's fight against those guards. The episode was really well-made animation-wise. The money that was put in Sugu's boobies when she saved Kirito alone could've made this episode of Magi way better than it is now.

The point of these designs is to hate them as looks and personality, to show them no sympathy. Wait until you see Banker's face, that guy has a more creepy face than Abhmad. If you're curios here's his face:

Though generally speaking, Magi has better looking antagonists than main characters imo, Fatima, Jamil, Kassim, and Judal, in addition to the future antagonists that will appear at the end of the current arc and in the next arcs, have better designs than let's say, Alibaba and Aladdin or the future characters. But A-1 Pictures keep ruining this show and these characters. -_-

I agree that the last episode was great. There are hardly any mistakes animation-wise. But what about the last last episode? And the one before that? The thing is SAO's animation is too inconsistent. Magi's animation was fine and stable until this episode. This episode was shit in animation department in my opinion. SAO ain't taking all of their resources. If we're talking about the stability of an average animation then it's - Uchuu Kyoudai > Magi ≥ SAO > Shinsekai Yori. I don't even think that they knew the real value of SAO and how can they make a lot of money if they just focus on it.

Really? I actually see the animation in SAO is the best between the works by A-1 Pictures. Well Kirito has some derp faces (when he's fighting especially), but just watch any Sugu/Lyfa or Asuna or Yui or any girl added to the harem moments (and there are a lot of those) and you'd see how hard they're working on these parts, especially Sugu's boobs, the fights are also well-made despite some derp-faces. As for Magi, yes most of the episodes till now were good animation wise, but I wouldn't the animation as good as in SAO, if anything Magi has more inconsistencies and derp-faces than SAO.

I'm not sure where the problem is exactly this week, but the fact that SAO had the best animation this week from A-1 Pictures' works kinda says they worked on it more than on Magi, add to that the number of series they're working on this season. Either way, I'm hoping next episode will have better animation, it's one of the best fights in this arc, it'd be really a shame if they ruined it like this episode's Alibaba vs Sinbad.

I really enjoy Magi, both the anime and manga, the best series I discovered this season. Though I agree this episode has lazy animation to the point I got irritated. The passing is fine, but I just wish that the anime did a better job with the cool scenes shown in the manga, Alibaba get degraded again :/
