Aix Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 It appears that there is no discussion yet on this forum about this manga/anime, so here we are. I quite like this series, I've been following the manga for more than a year and I've recently watched the anime. What do you guys think of it?

Super Chaos Sonic Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Its opening: V.I.P by SID....awesome! As for the series itself, I have yet to watch/read. Its on my list of stuff to watch ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 [quote name='Chaos Sonic' timestamp='1356960067' post='6107083'] Its opening: V.I.P by SID....awesome! [/quote]Yeah. I quite like the ending too. I think Morgiana <3 I don't like that Judal. I like Nana Mizuki, so I like Hakuei Ren. Actually I like her anyway. BUT, that fart I heard in episode 4 may have just been a chair moving, since I went back and it didn't sound too much like one, but I don't really know. I've so far only really been watching the anime. So yeah, I've been really liking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Games Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Picked up the anime. thought it was cool, especially Alibaba, now Sinbad too, then started going through the manga and got up to about Ch. 85 There's lots to like about it, the art, animation and characters are all great.

Fusion X. Denver Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I picked up the anime on a whim and I'm hooked, but now that I see how popular it is, I'm afraid it'll be stuck on my watching list for 5+ years, haha. But I like the main 3 a lot as well as Sin. This should be a solid series overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ky2quick Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I'm really liking the series and loving the manga even more, it's in my must watch list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Oh, so the opening & ending changed already? That unfortunately gives me more reason to believe that it'll only be about 24-26 episodes. Awesome action this episode. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desu the Blue Nerd Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 [color=#0000CD]It's odd for me. Everytime I watch an episode I keep thinking to myself, "WHY AM I ENJOYING THIS SO MUCH?!" But I suppose that's just because it's good.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 A manga podcast I listen to recommended it so I spend most of the Thanksgiving weekend reading it. Think it took me 3 days to read the whole thing. I personally love it. Just sucks that I picked it up around the time manga goes on break so I have to wait another week before new chapters start coming on out a regular bases again.

Fusion X. Denver Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Yeah, I was afraid I'd fall asleep watching the latest episode this late since that's usually what happens when I watch anime late at night, but it kept me wide awake. I think Alibaba's my favorite character, just above Sin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a good job of putting the pressure on Alibaba, carrying the weight of the people on his shoulders as it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 BUMPITY BECAUSE I WATCHITIED. RUNDOWN GO: Alibaba is a human. I'm very VERY happy about that. No matter how much he frustrates me sometimes. I can relate to him... perhaps a bit too much for my liking. Morgiana x Alibaba... has to happen ;~; Aladdin is absolutely adorable. Sinbad is cool. I really feel bad for Hakuryuu but he's also basically Sasuke. Judar is insane, but I like him a bit... okay, not really, they did a great job of making him the villain. Kougyoku is the best Tsundere. And Jafar is TOTALLY bipolar. I REALLY like the magician's country and the philosophical arguments arising from it. They're great and really make you think. That's something I've only seen in a few anime, such a Ki-ba, and it can really get me interested in what's going on. When it comes to anime based on alternate worlds using religion and mythology from different parts of the world, I can get hooked pretty easily, and this is no exception. I absolutely love this series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted March 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 It's the only series I know of which has ever separated the main protagonists for an extended amount of time, and I found that different. I like different things, I dunno why. But, didn't Aladdin said that he would never see Alibaba again wayyyyy back? At least in the manga he did, I forget about the anime.

I like different things, I dunno why. You do know One Piece had Luffy by himself for almost 100 chapters right? But on the note of the different ideology the manga presents the fact that it shows both sides in a relatively fair way is something I really enjoy. This past arc has been especially good in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This past arc has been especially good in that regard. Don't remember much of One Piece. It's kinda blurry to me, though I still follow it... okay, then... it's the only one where they willingly part ways for many chapters? Yeah, the past arc was good, I got confused though, because they did it like that, I didn't know which side to cheer for. I'm used to bias in these things.

Well they did end up spending the 2 years apart willingly, but I guess you can say that. Yea, it was strange. I did enjoy it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChibiFan7 Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 a friend of mine recommended this anime to me. i need to check it out...the manga i have been readng so far is cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=578457 Woh, woh, woh, woh... wow, clearly this was planned from the beginning... but planned 25 episodes and then more at a later time? I haven't heard of that before, and the anime has been kinda dropping in quality imo. I doubt the end makes it worth wanting more, I'm gonna need to read the manga sometime soon instead. Though I might just watch more anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 My general rule is that its always better to read the manga. After that if you really enjoy it you can then go and watch the anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 So they divert the anime from the manga... then they decide to continue following the manga... This is why I'm not watching episode 25 and got caught up with the manga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I'm still gonna read the manga since it's probably better and I'd like to see how the chapters are not so crammed together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I'm not watching episode 25 and got caught up with the manga. See, when I started reading this it put me off from watching the anime.

That said, I'm still gonna read the manga since it's probably better and I'd like to see how the chapters are not so crammed together. Yea, but even then if the anime gets me into the manga I normally just end up preferring the manga. Happened with most anime I've watched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
