| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So it's an anime that takes place in the arabian world, quite interesting, the story with Zarqa was good |

phantomfandom said: Would it be appropriate if I same-sex ship in this anime? This anime is funded by controversial MiSK foundation to promote Saudi Arabia culture, and from my knowledge, I'd received a severe punishment if I BL ship this anime. Almost all main male characters in this anime are children. If you're going to receive a punishment for something, it will be for sexualizing children. |
| Im half arab so I was interested in this new anime and honestly the story was amusing to watch |
 |
| Mmh... it was decent for what it is. The characters look was a nice change although the series sure doesn't look really well produced. 3/5 I'm pretty sure I have seen/read a similar story somewhere. Interesting to have a western man for co-charadesigner and arabic peoples for the concept director, architecture manager, and "arabian art" (whatever that means... anyone knows?) positions. Is it a co-production like Japan and European countries were used to make in the 80s? @Afarran I guess you would consider the "Bible Fox" (no idea what the real name was) that was broadcasted in Italia, and some middle-east countries as cartoon too. ^^ |
| i'm arabic and that was boring |
 |
| So this is Père Castor but on an arabian setting ? The story with Zarqa was ok. 3/5 |
| @Afarran I understood well that you were not saying it's bad. ^^ As for "arabic/arabian art", I only read what was written in the credit and was wondering what kind of job it was, sorry for the confusion. Thanks for the broadcast information. It must mean that it was indeed a coproduction work or an order from the country. About the series where a "baby" fox revisits the Bible, I can't give you a name you might know: I forgot the french name, the italian/Vatican version was titled something like "The Little Fox and the Bible" and the japanese version is called "Tezuka Osamu's Old Testament" I think. So, every country has its own name. ^^" (since it's initially a work ordered by the Vatican, I'm not even sure if it's listed on MAL) |
Don't watch anime that was funded by Saudi Arabia.  |
 |
Dude WTF is this? XD |
Typical saudi arabia tv show or elaborate shitposting. |
|
| Memri TV is a goldmine of dumb shit |
 |
| Even though I don't like Saudia Arabia and the prince, I have to admit that I did enjoy this anime. It is better than what I expected I'm an Arab myself from Lebanon |
| Not sure I like this since Zarqa's story has a happy ending. In reality (more like mythology) the bad guys win and her eyes were gouged out. |
| Nice Story and i hope to see more Non Japanese Anime For Example like Indian or Brazil because Most new Japanese anime focus only in Fan Service |
 |
| Great episode, i don't really care that much about our protagonists, i only care about the story that grandma is telling. Which is a pretty good concept, since her grandkids are so zoomer that they most definitely don't know what it was like back in the past, leading her to always mention. "Long long time ago" It's even true in our world, listening to folktales and fairy tail stories in our childhood that were all about the past, past that we've never seen or knew what it was like back then. Btw not sure i agree with the moral of the story that kids concluded. What do they mean by "you have to trust those who are close to you more, i trust you, do you trust me?" His advisor was also close to him, even more than Zarqa probably? since he never liked Zarqa, in his mind, she had more incentive to take him down, it's kinda subconscious where you are led to believe that if you don't like someone, he probably doesn't like you as well. And he definitely didn't like her. Meanwhile his advisor was always helping him and share his interest, prospering their territory? like who would actually believe that he would betray you? You can say, that you should be more wary of people and not trust anyone, but then who do you trust? then you'll be the type of leader who is being advised to do something, and then he does the opposite, even if it's a good advice that leads to his land's prosperity, paranoid leader... I feel like what it showed more than anything, that trusting someone is all about luck, you can put trust in Zarqa and then be rewarded by being lucky that your trust was justified, or like in Musab's case trust in the wrong person and get destroyed... Thanks for sharing the actual story, was wondering it actually existed or it's all made up by grandma... Batena said: You know the actual story is different And more interesting but sure they changed it to suit children enemies knew about Zarqa', so they made a plan They cut trea branches to hide behind it Zarqa saw them and told her people " i see trees walking toward the city" they mocked her and said that she went crazy It was too late for her when she saw the men behind the trees They conquered the city Then captured her and gougined her eyes then she died after three days And some stories they hanged her on the gate of the city Some people believe that she is a real person who had superpower vision |
| Haven't seen an anime taking place in Saudi Arabia before, animation isn't the best but the folk tales are pretty interesting to see even if they aren't really accurate to the actual story. |
 |
| It seems people here just hate the arabian culture for most, or atleast a Middle East one on every aspects. For me, this is just an okay show, with interesting story telling, a nice character, a pretty good plot with so much deep moral lesson for your miserable life, and a nice musical background that suited well with the middle east theme. The art and animations style were not the best i've ever seen. But, its quite far away from the bad level, even i must say its fine. The storyline level was also quite good. Your typical folkstale for the kids that somehow in these day, not much type of this show happened lately. Especially with the full length duration of TV series like these. For me, this is just above my average standard. Lets see next for holding up my initial judgement view here. Thats it for now |
