My review:
The story begins with a blue
haired boy named Aladdin, who demands to know what he is, but the djinn he asks,
called Ugo, can’t say the answer. Instead, he offers Aladdin a wish. Later,
Aladdin meets Alibaba, a young servant trying to get rich, while eating all the
watermelons Alibaba was supposed to take care of. At Alibaba’s house, he
explains to Aladdin that fourteen years ago, strange magical structures called
Dungeons started appearing around the world, and that whoever could clear the
dungeons would gain power and wealth, such as gold, jewelry and magical items, the
things that Alibaba needs. Alibaba also mentions that the best items are the
metal djinn vessels. At the streets, they see a girl with an enormous basket of
fruits, and she has chains in her feet, a symbol of being a slave. She notices
they are looking at her feet, and while trying to hide the chains, she stumbles
onto the ground. Aladdin doesn’t like the way Alibaba’s master treats her, and
decides to call Ugo to scare them. Afterwards, an accident occurs in the desert
while trying to deliver wine, and the powers of Aladdin are seen again: the
enormous Ugo and his magic turban that transforms into a magic carpet, since he
can actually fly! After witnessing this this, Alibaba feels that Aladdin could
help him complete the dungeons, and the two decide to become friends, along
with the girl, who’s name is Morgiana. After some adventures, they decide to
part ways for training, and in doing so they find many risks, and gain experiences
and knowledge by working hard. But will this help them when a dark, secret organization
attacks them?
My thoughts:
The first thing I liked
about this anime was the setting. As someone from the Caribbean, it made me
happy to see an environment that I can identify with, including high
temperatures, the forests, the caves, the ocean, and much more. My favorite
characters are Aladdin, Ugo and Titus. The story is fantastic with many lessons,
such as never giving up, friendship, how to defeat your past, and how to move
on. My favorite part is when the three main characters were training during season
two, especially Aladdin, as he went to a school of magic, where he meets Titus.
The plot is really good, and I can’t wait to know more about Aladdin and
Sinbad’s past, and about the secret organization. Aladdin and Alibaba also change
over the course of the story, becoming more mature and determined. In my
opinion, Alibaba’s task will be more difficult for him for two reasons: his past, and the fact that he can’t summon his djinn. Will he be
able to learn how? Find out!
