| Enjoyed everything about this episode. I don't watch much shounen, but something about the setting and the characters in this are right up my alley. 5/5 P.S. Alibaba is so cool. |

Aladdin will get it back next episode, but this is a good opportunity for him to show off the rest of his powers (yeah, he has a few cards up his sleeve) haha okay thanks!! And im looking forward to the next episode! |
| Great episode, glad that their are more characters (including antagonists), as well as the future member to their group. I am really looking forward to the continued journey. 5/5 |
 |
| I like the changes, and it's better than the manga. I'm a bit confused about what they'll do after this dungeon, since there was supposed to be another short arc before meeting Sindbad, yet they'll meet him in episode 4. OP and ED don't fit at all. They are really out of place. Especially ED. And the animation in the ending is misleading. Oh well, hopefully OP2 and ED2 have an Arabian feel to them. |

| I was kinda disappointed at first but then I got over it. I still prefer the manga version. But this was okay. I'm pretty sure I'll get use to the changes in the anime. Though i do have to say that they kinda rushed it. -__________- |

| Alibaba is BOSS! And Morgiana gives new meaning to the term "leadfoot"! lol. |

| I thought that Alibaba would get carried by Alladin but it look like he can pretty much act on his own. Much better than I expected. |

| Love it. As well as Morgiana. I can't wait until she joins Alibaba and Aladdin. The part where Aladdin made Morgiana smile made me d'aaaaaw everywhere. |
| God dammit. I was hoping this show would shit itself and I could dump it without a second thought, but it's too interesting. I don't know what's worse: Waiting a full year for this show to finish airing to watch it, or grinding through it week by week until it's done. Sigh... |

| good episode A bit uncomfortable with some changes made, but it was fine Morgiana is an interesting female character, different from other female characters Can't wait when three of them travel together |
| This Anime is already so good, love it heaps. :) Ali Baba fooling the sharif was such a badass move. That BGM that played when he came down the vine was awesome. Aladdin trying to make Morgianna laugh was hilarious. Was he naked at some point? XD Can't wait to see them beat the crap outta the sharif and see Morgianna join Aladdin and Ali Baba. :D Also can't get enough of the OP. SID ftw! |

I don't think I want to watch fifty episodes of this, but for now it's too enjoyable to drop. Maybe by 5-10 episodes I'll have had enough. Time will tell. |

| It's still just soo good. Really enjoying myself. Oh my hell when they pulled away from Mogiana though! Could not believe it! |

SteinsGate said: This is starting to be epic... I loved it. The concept is very interesting, it develops wonderfully even though it seems to be a little rushed, has amazing ost and a very good opening song. This fall season gives me the chills when I think about anime like Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun, Psycho Pass and Magi and their potential. All the other pale in comparison in front of them. 5/5 for this episode. Adding Code:Breaker to the list xD Though it's not as good as Magi (at least to me). |
 |
| Another Great Episode. When Alibaba came down from the vine and all I thought they were going to save Morgiana. But I Guess I'll have to wait to see Morgiana join Aladdin and Alibaba. Looking forward to it though. |
 |
| The so called "Lord" is a sick basted hope he die in the worst possible way cant wait to what they get from the dungeons, and Morgiana leg str is redunkuless. |
| I thought it was pretty good. Being a fan of the manga you know there is gonna be differences but idk they seem to be rushing a little. I remember in the manga they met those 2 girls and and met Jamil firstt before they even went into the dungeon. All in all 4/5 |
| I heard that in the manga there is much more they went through in the dungeon before they reached that gate at the end of the episode. Is it true? |
| 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. |
| Better than the first episode for sure, though I did like the first one. This Fall season is the best season of anime I have ever been a part of. Though, I only started keeping up with seasons last year. The first season I watched airing anime was Spring 2011. So, this is my 7th season and I am keeping up with 21 currently airing anime. I've never done more than 7 or so in the past, lol. |
 |
| Can't get over the insanely cute ED song. I love it. |
| Yes, but you didn't miss much, they kept all the key points. I think they're doing it to give the next arc justice instead of rushing or leaving it incomplete like other animes do. |

symbv said: I heard that in the manga there is much more they went through in the dungeon before they reached that gate at the end of the episode. Is it true? The entire dungeon was different, in the manga it was a plain dungeon with monsters and booby traps. The anime changed it to a fire theme, makes more sense actually (as to why you'll see later). Other than that they skipped a short background story of a character named Sinbad, and this Dungeons history like when it appeared and how many people tried to clear it. They also skipped where Alibaba uses logic to determine which gate is the right one (probably cause they changed the entire dungeon). Other than these, nothing significant was skipped. |

| Good episode :D Cliffhanger :( |
Num1dad_Asura said: Other than these, nothing significant was skipped. Thanks a lot for the explanation! It is good to know that while the entire dungeon was different it was still keeping quite a lot of stuff too. I guess the green ant-like creatures were also there in the manga too? |

Ya, they were (never knew they were green though lol). I forgot to mention they also didn't explain the special abilities of these ant-like creatures. They are able imitate and shape-shift into anything they observe (sort of like the monkeys Zoro was training with in One Piece), that's how they merged to become that Ugo looking thing. The breathing fire part was probably due to anime changing the dungeon. |

| This episode felt so short. Pretty good sign. |
| Pretty good episode. Beside kuroko no basket, this is the second shounen adaptation which I've fully enjoyed this year. Although they skipped first few chapters, but it didn't lose much information, and the second ep was just fine, it was faithful to the manga. I just ran through its manga after finished 1st episode last week, can't wait to see when they meet sinbad lol. |

| Another good episode. One of the few anime I'm actually enjoying this season. |
 |
| better than the 1st ep now i know why Aladdin is such a glutton,,,typical main character? |
 |
| --oh gosh A-1 what you've done??!! this is so different with the manga.. but still enjoying tho, 4 out of 5 from me |
| Alibaba is a great character, he's witty and brave. Oh well, time to read the manga. |
 ~ IA- Aria on the Planetes ~ Vocaloid V3 voiced by LiA (Clannad Afterstory, Angel Beats! theme song singer) |
| It was quite fun :p liked it ^^ The face Aladdin made when he saw Ali baba right after the girl said he died really made me laugh xD |
| Absolutely brilliant episode, totally loving the adaption until now, a little rushed but they kept the most important parts and I'm really glad they preferred to show seriousness over comedy. But I gotta say I laughed a lot when Mor was saying Alibaba is dead and Aladdin was looking at him and saying "oh I see" lol Also how Sharif was stabbing the big guy (don't remember his name), man that was brutal. |
 |
| At first I didn't like the voices and was worried that it would be really different from the manga, but it's really starting to grow on me :D |
| "Our everyday lives may, in fact, be a series of miracles." - Nichijou |
| Again, some good cuts. I was about to rage thinking morgiana was cut off from the dungeon , but in the end everything was fine. I love that damn expressionless cute thing. |
| I find the expressions in this anime hilarious. |
| I'm really enjoying this show so far. If only Alibaba had a different VA. |
 |
| This is how Shounen series should be done! :D 5/5. I don't know why but I don't love this series even though there's no issues I have with it. It's perfect really but I just don't completely love it. To me, it just seems like a story about a boy with his Aladdin. |
| alright, this has to be my favorite animes this season Fantastic episode 5/5 |
 |
PervisumChaos said: The directing, 1/5. The rest, 5/5. Sigh....narrow minded manga fans are narrow minded...guess I'll just have to get use to that fact. Little advice for ya, trying coming up with a pace chart for 25 episodes or so to include the 70ish chapters that compose the manga till the end of the Balbadd arc, that is if you can. |
 |
| I love the dynamic between Aladdin and Alibaba. All of the characters are so likable, even the ones I'm not supposed to like. |
ahneeme said: Early in this episode Alibaba saw and commented on the rukh. I can't remember how the early manga chapters went but No that part was in the manga, its during the beginning of chapter 8. |
