THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------


Not bad for the start of this new arc imo :P

I guess this involves an adventure across the sea? Heh, it looks like it to me. Dat water dragon. Nice to meet some other new characters as well. They look pretty damn strong imo.

Morgania also looks great this episode with her dance. Nice :3

Morgania finally dances !!!

And Aladdin is finally back to fondling breasts!! Cool !
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.

Why didn't they show the part where Morgiana got jealous when Alibaba praises other women pretty.. I don't think that's a small or useless part as it shows Morgiana's feeling towards Alibaba.
And why did Alibaba got bitten by snake? Like how Hakuryuu will be bitten by snake in Zagan Arc. If it's the same snake (which is Isnan), what are they trying to do about this? Are they going to diverge the plot?
Even if it's not the same snake, what is the use of Alibaba getting bitten by a snake. They put in that useless part instead of the part where Morgiana got jealous?

Nice way to kick off the Sindria arc, great episode!
Considering what was shown near the end of the credits, we will be seeing the Kougyoku/Sinbad bit in the next episode. Haha, yes!

That dance was missing quite a few frames they tried to make it look fluid on the cheap but it just looked jerky. I was really looking forward to that dance i still remember it from the manga they even put it in their opening. I thought when the dancing started this would be where they would put the budget for this episode since they had been trying to avoid animating anything at all with all the back of the damn head shots and still screens. I swear to god A1 animation gets cheaper and even more shit with each show unless it is Vividred Operation apparently, hell even Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru gets better treatment than this, i am sick of their crappy animation/non animation.

Wtf was with the snake as well thats is not supposed to be there go bite Hakuryuu like your freaking meant to, just stick to the manga it is what works. Like hokaru said i wished they left in Alibaba complimenting other girls as well it lets us see Morgiana's cute jealousy and further shows her feelings towards Alibaba.

edit - Also yes like some people posted below me and i forgot to say, where is my fat Alibaba and fat Aladdin that part of the manga cracked me up. If you want to see what they looked like in the manga go look at parfaited's profile he put screens of them on his lol.

What a hot mess leaning more towards mess than hot.


If complaining hurts your eyes just glaze over everything in italics.

They've skipped some of the funniest panels ever (R.I.P curvacious Aladdin) and they've done something funky with that leftover snake. (It bit Alibaba? WHAT)
Don't get me wrong I'm not completely against cutting away the "non-important" parts. The thing is that those parts add up and without them you end up with mostly 1-dimensional characters as we have here.
-Alibaba being a major muss who does nothing but cry when in reality he's just a Fatbaba who actually spends some time not giving a crap.
-Aladdin still likes boobs but he's quirky beyond that. Not just a little boob liking Magi with a blue genie who did everything for him.

Ok whatever. It's my fault for wanting to see some light comedy that add more likeable qualities to a character. Dissapointing.
I think that for once I'm glad that I don't read too much manga cause sitting here picking this stuff out is not fun but it's hard not to nitpick.



The highlights:

-The 8 generals
-animated and talking Sharrkan. Cocoa sexiness ahoy and I can't deny I proceeded to gasm all over the place.

-animated and talking Yamu. Stunning queen goddess and yes, I gasmed all over once again.
Some people were mad that Yamu helped Sharrkan take down the serpent but I ain't mad because this is my OTP. Thanks for the extra ship material.

-Even with shit cut out Morgiana is still adorable. Can't hold her down!

this was a really nice episode. not a lot was happening and maybe it was too rushed, but that's okay for me. i truly enjoyed this episode and that's a bit... weird because during the last episodes there were always things that bothered me.

i know that everyone loves morgiana, but i never really cared that much about her. but this episode makes me look forward to yamu and maybe i'll finally find a female character in that show that i like. let's see.
and aladdin, i totally understand you. those boobs are so nice.

i also thought that sharrkan's pretty interesting. the way he just slaughtered that water monster made me really laugh :D

i don't know much about the other six characters yet, but they definitely looked interesting as well.

as i said: maybe they changed the scenery a bit too quickly, but i can live with that (especially because i can't compare it with the manga). so i liked it, surprisingly. yeah.


edit (because i just read about the dance):
yes, the dance animation looked awful. i don't even know what they were trying to do there. it could have been a really nice scene, but the animation totally ruined it.

Yeah sucks that decided to condense so much into one episode AND cut a bunch of stuff out that was in the manga. I was looking forward to see fat Alibaba and Aladdin (and also Sinbad's reaction to them), because it's just so hilarious. I think it would've made this episode far more interesting with it than without. This episode was honestly just a tad boring and really could've used some comedy (or more comedy). I also agree that Morgiana's dancing was a little jerky, they could've animated it better. Although I don't really care about the dancing, I just felt that they could've animated it (and other things) better. I think I've complained about it for the last two weeks, but A-1, I am disappointed in the lack of quality in your animation sometimes.

Still, it was nice to all 8 generals and I enjoyed watching the festival part. Seems like a lot of fun ^^

Morgiana looked great in that outfit and her dance was alluring. She also looked so cute when she blushed like that after Alladin and Alibaba complimented her on how gorgeous she looked.

lol but really she has developed feelings for him, he has done alot for her such as freeing her and all the slaves back in the first arc and giving them jobs and using the treasure from the dungeon to set up their wages after he left, he has also supported her and tried to make her think for herself and not like a slave just as Morgiana supported him as well. She also saw his kind and compassionate side, how he cares for the people and how he puts himself out there without giving up. The are many reasons for why her feelings for him grew the manga does a better job of showing it.

I liked the ep, but as others have said above, I'm disappointed by some of the changes from the manga...
Also, I was looking forward to seeing how Mor's dance would look animated, but I didn't like how they did it >.<
On another note, I like Yamuraiha's VA ^^
Morikubo-san fits for Sharrkan too.

Nobody is sure, since Aladdin doesn't show romantics feelings for her and another young man will grow feelings for her, check the manga :)

But they still make a perfect couple, just think about it.

I really liked this episode. Morgiana training with Masrur was so cool, even if it was only for a few seconds. Sindria looks like such a wonderful place to be in. Sinbad's eight generals all look badass. LOL @ Aladdin running up to Yamuraiha and gropping her breasts and soon-after got steamed. xD It was awesome to see Sharrkan slice up that monster in pieces. Morgiana is so damn cute. Loved it when she started dancing. Morgiana X Alibaba pair confirmed? :D

Severely disappointed with this episode. What the hell have they done to FattyBaba and Fatdin? And Sinbad's humour? And the fact that that snake is meant to bite Hakuryuu, and Alibaba leaves Balbadd of his own free will instead of being taken by force? I give up!

And that animation, dear lord above.

At least Yamuraiha and Sharrkan are here at last ♥
