You're telling me Doom was supposed to be here but they decided it's better without him??? WHY? 😭 I love him and I always wanted to see more of him and in the books there is actually more of him?? God I'm so mad 😂 Btw if that guy wanted Dain that much just because he was in the Resistance, imagine what he would do if he knew the Resistance lider's daughter was there the whole time 😂 12:28 I just realized Jasmine was above the water by herself, isn't she supposed to hold onto Barda or Lief cause she can't swim? 😂 Also, good luck watching the next episode, you'll see why I'm telling you this when you read that episode's title 😅 Three times is maybe too much for you lol
I can't really say much on the ENG dub of Deltora Quest because I only seen clips of it. However I have seen it in the original Japanese which means it's uncensored, a different OST, a 13 EP filler arc that was never ENG dubbed & they play a Delta Goodrem song in the last opening credits in said filler arc which is still the craziest thing to know about. Also Delta, Deltora I see what they did there.
😆 I’m actually looking forward to seeing those non-canon episodes later
@@HijjiahtheHobbit The Japanese version of all the OP & ED credits for Deltora Quest are also really good, none of them are bad, dare i say underrated. There are 3 OPs & 5 EDs in total. You can find the ENG subs off of Toransubs currently there are the last 3 EPs that they haven't uploaded yet. Pretty sure there was a Japan only Deltora Quest game for the DS & a manga too and Also i never read the novels growing up, seen them in libraries but i never got the chance to pick them up. The art style & animation for the anime are done by OLM who were responsible for the Pokemon anime.
@@pokemaniac05 😯no way! I had no idea
@@HijjiahtheHobbit And of course anime censorship which the ENG dub has some scenes or lines different or removed from the Japanese version which is typical for anime ENG dubs during this time.
@@HijjiahtheHobbit Also I will admit the ENG dub's voice acting is very hit & miss after listening in these reactions & the ENG dub's music too it's not terrible just ok for me, idk the original Japanese's audio sounds better imo.
"No way, Barda. No way. Good. Barda?!" Lol! That really made me laugh. 😂 Your channel is seriously underrated.
Thanks! I really appreciate that
@@HijjiahtheHobbit NP! I really hope your channel keeps growing! :)
2:25 Barda have you learned nothing from Jin and Jod? 🙄 Dain didn't flirt with Jasmine in book at all? I mean giving her a gift is not flirting but you know what I mean 😅 I thought it was his way to manipulate her into trusting him by actually making her LIKE HIM (like have a crush on him and let me tell it will kiiindaa work) because he knew she would be the least likely to believe him. I thought that was so smart but turns out it never happened 😅
😂literally tho! As for Dain there is no romance between him and Jasmine. Must be an anime exclusive. But I agree… crafty
Interesting... 🤔 I like that change tho, some of the changes are really good tbh, makes me think that Emily maybe wished she wrote some things differently. Or not 😅 but still, it's good for the later episodes, especially when she finds out who he is 😬
Oooh, looking forward to it
@@SparklyLibrary Also, I think you'll find Dain's character in the Maze of the Beast to be interesting... not so innocence and very self-driven
What do you mean he's not going to make it easy all breezy for Marina?
😅 Sinbad says “it’s not gonna get u a 5 star service” when he agrees to go to Tartarus
What did Sinbad mean when he said "It's not gonna get u a 5 star service."?
@@shanecooban2023 Sorry, I meant it's not gonna be a 5 star service. AKA she's not gonna get special treatment for being royalty (& probs female)
@@HijjiahtheHobbit how did Marina not get special treatment for being royalty?
@@shanecooban2023 The crew was nice to her... but that's coz they wanted to treat her well. But Sinbad... he's another story😬
“That was so anticlimac…. 👁️👄👁️” had me laughing 🤣. Same reaction first time honestly. I love the rithmere games primarily from this one scene. Although I dislike Naridah in general, this one scene stops me from outright hating her. Lief got owned 😭.
🤣
Thank you for you methodical analysis of Cinderella’s strengths it is truly crystal clear like a glass slipper a perfect fit 😊
You're very welcome!
The pains of living in Australia, having to deal with this medieval-style internet. I feel you. 😂
🫡
Btw, seeing you giggling about Lief and Jasmine I need to ask. Will you watch all 65 episodes or will you stop after episode 52? The last 13 episodes have some really cute moments between them. I would really like to see your reactions ❤
Ooooh, I’ll have a look for them. If I find the last 13 episodes I definitely will 😁
@@HijjiahtheHobbit you can find them only in Japanese. When anime came to an end they wanted to make more episodes to give anime something like a "proper ending" coz they knew they wouldn't animate DQ2 and 3. I think Emily was against it or something like that so she didn't give permission to dub those in English or any other language but they are still fun to watch even if they don't make much sense lol. They are travelling the world again to make sure its safe before Lief's ceremony in ep 65. It sounds boring but please give it a try, I'm sure you will enjoy 🥰
11:09 girl sameee 🥲 I was stunned Spoiler for anyone who haven't watched or read books! Now that I think about it, Dain was so sus from the begining but in a way you would never consider him an enemy, especially when you are reading/watching for the first time, cause of his sweet talking and the fact that he literally put himself in danger to gain their trust, but also working against them the whole time. Those little details that I see every time I rewatch the anime is reason I love the story so much! Plot twist after plot twist in the end is chef's kiss 😚 The best villains are the ones you never suspect. Because of that I have to love Dain tbh, he did his job very good.
He sure did! In the Maze of the Beast there are less moments between Dain and the trio than the anime. They’re definitely making Dain look sweeter in the anime and Doom more evil. Like the fact that he says the secret they found out was the password system or asked them to stripe, I was like Doom wouldn’t do that 🥲. He was only protecting his bestie Stephen 🫶 when Lief figured out it was Queen Bee honey
Watching you fangirl out over Doom is very relateable, because I fanboy over him. 😂 He's my favorite in the series after Jasmine and Sholto. ❤
Ohhhh Sholto! Interesting pick. I couldn’t help but liking Rye tbh, honourable and relatable intentions 🫶 but I can see why people would go Sholto over Dirk 😆

By God, my brother comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants us to go out to the street because we are unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and talked to the neighbors again and gave us a deadline until the end of the week and we swore to God to let us out of the street now we are in arrears of 60 thousand Yemeni riyals for 3 months rent may God have mercy on us our country is suffering because of this war and we do not find our daily sustenance and we live my mother and sisters our father passed away may God have mercy on him and we do not have anyone in the world to come to us in these harsh circumstances my little sisters went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stood at their door giving them even a piece of bread and by God in whose hand is the heavens and the earth they closed the door and kicked them out and they came back crying dying of hunger no one has mercy on them and now the holiday has come back to me if no one of us helps us with a kilo of flour by God we will die of hunger brother I seek refuge in God and then in you and I want your help for the sake of God I ask you by God you love goodness and help me even if it is about the rent of the house send me a WhatsApp message on this number 00967716649494 and ask for my card name and send it and do not delay may God compensate you with all good My little sisters, look at their situation and help us and save us before they throw us out into the street and humiliate us or my family and I die of hunger.

This was my favourite book out of the first trilogy and I loved watching these episodes on dvd as a kid
It's a good one. Ols are definitely my favourite enemy in book one... one of my favourites in the entire universe
0:32 you are so real for that! 😂 They wasted the budget on THIS when they could just save the money and make ruby do its job when Jasmine was injured 🥲 I actually wanted to tell you that you can skip this episode (coz I know how boring it was for me to watch and I'm not getting bored about TV show very easily so yeah) but I totally forgot 😭 I could have saved you from this misery! But it is what it is I guess 🤷♀️ The only thing I like about this episode is Lief and Jasmine at the end, they are so funny when they are arguing 😂 P.S. did you see ? in the title? Spoiler alert: this was NOT the end of the Carn Squad! Question answered 😂
😂 well I’m waiting for the day it will be
You're right. This filler trash of an episode did not deserve to be part of the rest of your planned batch. 😅

For some reason as a kid watching these “filler” episodes they didnt bother me as much. Its still really baffling to me that they would change the reason why Jasmine was cured from the poison last episode as well. I think I’ll just delete that from my memory 😂 While I do love this anime and Jasmine being the main attraction for me, I do wish theyd gone a bit more PG-13 with it I feel like thatd suit the books tone much better.
I think as a kid reading DQ the anime matches in tone. But as an adult reading DQ I must say I agree. Bring on the Demon Slayer fights 🤩
@@HijjiahtheHobbit I would kill for that! What's your thoughts on the designs? Personally I like them even if they differ a little from the books in some cases but with the budget these shows had it wouldve been basically impossible to adapt McBrides designs. Jasmine honestly is my favourite out of all of them.
@@karystmania5509 I love the animation style! Tbh the images by the McBrides never matched my imagination and some kinda terrified me as a kid, esp. the cavern of fear and isle of the dead covers... something about tentacles and sea creatures always gave me the creeps. So the nicer anime drawing is refreshing
@@HijjiahtheHobbittruly is a shame that we never got this as a trilogy I wouldve loved that but alas the fact we even got anything at all is a miracle
Really sad that there was no season 2 this girl was integral to the second book
Oh Tira is an OG, just like Glock and the Kin in later books
@@HijjiahtheHobbit I'm aware I was saying she becomes important later in the second book becoming the host for the mind control worms. It's honestly sad there was no season 2 and yes I know there is but it was never dubbed in English and from what I know didn't follow the Perrin Pipe story from the second book
Wait what! I'm gonna look for it. I want to see where they took the story
Starring from halfway in the book is a better idea I like what they do later with Leif telling Jasmine the story of Endon. It makes more sense than what the book did. Jasmine did grow up in the Forest of Silence after all and wouldn't know anything about Dels past before the Shadow Lord
That’s true tbh. I just didn’t expect it when I watched it that’s all
@@HijjiahtheHobbit no fan who watched the Anime was but hey Emily Rodda was part of the production of the anime and realized it was better to change some things around. I get the story in the book is meant for us the reader but hey I stand by what I said better to have it be told to Jasmine since she would most likely not know how the Shadow Lord came to power and would need more details otherwise she's just following Leif and Barda putting herself in danger for unknown reasons besides the message from her mother I mean
I'm learning so much from you! I had no idea Emily Rodda was involved. That's so cool
Wait Ri-Nan is dead? 😭 I really liked him! Many people made mistakes during the war but I liked how he changed when Prin saved him and out of all the gnomes HE was the one to tell others not to kill the Kin when they came back, it was so heart-warming to see that, too bad he is dead tho 😔 I'm really missing out so many important things, definitely need to read books 😂
I loved his arc in the anime, very nice touch. And what’s even sadder in the book is that Gellick’s spit doesn’t turn a person to stone but is like acid, slowly and painfully killing an individual. So poor Ri-Nan really coped it in the book
@@HijjiahtheHobbit oh that is so sad 🥺 poor gnomes that he killed...
:(

We ask you by God, if you are able to help us, do not delay on us, and may God reward you with good.'~~_«%•&»_~~_~&:»'////,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-,,’-😢
Lief in episode 4 while talking to Kree: Afraid of a little thunder? What a baby! Lief in episode 27: gets scared by a thunder 😅 I'm so mad that my favourite episodes are the ones that have been changed the most 😭 WHY?? I always thought that Prin's "magical tears" were stupid part of the plot but now that I know it's not cannon I'm relieved cause ruby makes much more sense! Btw, are you happy with the Gnomes and their design or are they different in books, like the Kin? Can't wait for Friday! ❤
The gnomes look alright. The only description we really get is about their heights, hair and clothes. Short, dark hair and animal skins.
I always interpreted Prin's tears in the anime as adding a little more liquid to the Lilies of Life, so that there could be just that little bit more for Jasmine. Still a ridiculous change, though. I don't know why they took out the Ruby's time to shine (pun intended). 😅
😆
One of my faves!
I never thought of "fairest of them all" to literally refer to fairness, but that makes so much more sense than the "fairness" of her looks, especially when taken in context with the queen desiring Snow White's heart! Love the analysis of the characters of the 7 dwarves, so much insight there. Would you consider doing an analysis of Mirror Mirror? Its a slightly changed live-action version of the Snow White story. I found it hilarious, but wonder whether you could help unearth some deeps beneath its shallow surface.
I've been waiting for you to do this film! Love the way you have taken this classic and reshaped it as a story of hope and faith married with drive and a determination for self-betterment. Indeed, there is something about Cinderella that is absolutely charming, you are just drawn to her character, proving thus that she is more than a pretty face. Also the concept of receiving something different (on the face of it) from what you had originally striven for, but is better suited for your needs is such a powerful reminder for all of us in our daily lives. Like Hajar (great comparison point btw!) we need to continue working toward acheiving our goal and accept the opportunities and blessings that come our way, even if they are not packaged in the paper we wanted. Are you going to analyse the sequels to Cinderella as well? I remember being obsessed with the 3rd film (the second was forgettable) because it focused on the redemption of Anastasia. I would love to hear your take on that one!
This made me get in touch with my inner Cinderellas! So many things to talk about with this story. That big social event (aka the european dance ball) used to showcase. The sisterly relationships and the important roles they play in making a community. What is deemed as success and happiness for an adolescent in finding someone to make a family with..and many many more Another great review. So many stories in one. So much food for thought.
Wow, this video is one of your best reviews. I ❤ it.
Wow, thank you!
Love the discussion on faith and belief! It opened my eyes to this story in a new way. ❤
I used to love The Emperor's New Groove! I thought your analysis of the difference between arrogance and pride and why we end up rooting for Cuzco and not Ezma was really insightful <3 Thanks for another great video essay!
Yesss, my favourite part of the quest - the one and only Dread Mountain! I love kins and gnomes, they are so cute and the mystery about Doom is really interesting. The end of episode 26 is so creepy. I would give everything to be able to watch this for the first time. I actually can't understand colour changes, like what's the point? 😅 I didn't know that kins are brown but now that I do it pisses me off 🙄 I've read DQ 2 and just couldn't imagine Lief with dark hair. Jasmine's hair is kinda fine I guess. I mean it's curly and not that light so yeah 😂
I guess with the description of the kin in the books, I imagined them to be flying kangaroos 😅
@@HijjiahtheHobbit well maybe that's what Emily was thinking about when she wrote them 😂
@@SparklyLibrary 😂
😂
😂
Btw you asked why are her children outside her territory, well I do not know what happened to them in book 3 after Thaegan died, but in anime I think they were allowed to go wherever they want cause every territory that Thaegan had under her control was free, so for the children every part of Deltora was kinda the same so it didn't really matter where they are 🤷♀️ But as you already said, in this filler episodes they were really desperate to just write something, literaly anything and it didn't make much sense but I still enjoyed watching 🤷♀️
Not Filli nodding in agreement 😂 Ngl I was a little bit sad when I heard that Thaegan was in books only once cause she is an amazing villain 🔥 love her!! Told ya you're gonna be annoyed 😂 Sometimes Lief thinks with his heart and not with his brain (like with Nerida) but I'm not sure what happened to Barda 😅
U we’re so right lol 😂
It is for kids. I watched it a lot as a child. I am 32 now and when I was a kid I grew up watched it again and again and again I LOVED it was one of my favourite Disney movie. Still is.
I love how done Jasmine was with her. Then again, shss basically done with everyone bs 😂
Love Jasmine… and SPOILERS Her dad
Awe inspiring!
Love your clothes!!!!! The first dress was amazing 😊
Thank you!! ☺️
Gorgeous outfits and scenery!
❤
I'm new to the channel and I gotta say, the intro is just as impressive as the discussion!
Thank u @rosestorm3695 ❤️
Not me feeling like the video just started and then the book review appeared on my screen 😅 It was so interesting that 32 minutes felt like 2! I think I already told you this but just in case I didn't I'm gonna say it again - I love the way you are describing things and it is really enjoyable to listen to you. The only thing I do not like is that I found your channel too early and now I have to wait for every video to be uploaded. I'm 100% sure that if you had already uploaded videos for all 8 books I would have watched them in like a day or two 😂❤
But anyway, it is a great journey with you, I hope you will do DQ 2 and 3 as well!
Sure planning to… DQ3 is my favourite ❤️ and if everyone is up for it I might do the three door trilogy as well… add more lore
Perfect! We are reading this right now!
You know what's great about being subscribed to you as a fellow Aussie? When you say a video will be out on Friday, it'll actually be out on Friday! So many Americans I'm subscribed to say "Friday," which translates to Saturday for me. >___< One change I really didn't like in the anime was, when Jasmine's dagger was taken, she was like: "AH! My dagger's gone!" Whereas, in the book, she doesn't say anything and only speaks up when she thinks Lief has found it. I feel like book!Jasmine is much more reserved and guarded than anime!Jasmine, and this was a very striking example of that. Anyway, great review! I love your content, particularly your Deltora content! :D Did not expact a math lesson, but I enjoyed it. I'm terrible at math (I'm more of a language person), but I do find it fascinating. As someone who used to be heavily into competitive Pokémon battling, I'm very familiar with probability and statistics biting me in the ass. XD
Thx so much 🙏. Yeah the characters’ personalities are definitely different! I’m curious to c if that’s a common thing in animes which r based on English literature? Coz it may just come down to a cultural difference too. I’m not sure.🤔
@@HijjiahtheHobbitYeah, that's a good point. I have the Deltora Quest books in Japsnese, but I have trouble reading them because of all the kanji. I should look into whether Jasmine's personality has been changed in the books as well. They seem to have gone with a "tsundere" personality for her in the anime, and I think that's definitely a cultural thing, like you said.
Would love to see more anime content explored through this sort of lens! Also, if you like TPN, could I interest you in Shadows House? It has slower pacing compared to TPN but goes deeper into the concept of free will and the duality/nuances of human nature. They also manage to stick to the source material for season 2 which is really when things begin to thicken.
😲, I am planning to do a few other anime’s in the future so stay tuned
Not a big fan of TPN but I love how you've extracted the essence of each character in revealing the parralels between that dystopian 'utopia' and ours. Lets hope that the Kronas of today's society drown out the acts of the Isabellas and help turn the tide so that our children can break free.
I don't want to spoil anything, but let's just say that in the next two episodes you will be so annoyed with Barda's and Lief's stupidity 😂 cause Jasmine definitely was! Both are filler episodes so it will be interesting for you not to know what will happen next and those episodes are so funny to me 😆 can't wait for you to see them ❤
Let’s see 🙃
Hi! Can you one day make a shorts?
Of what???
Let me know and I can try to
Can I tell you any movie that you could react to?
Not so much full reaction, but definitely reaction shorts and analysis 😃 that’s the idea
@@HijjiahtheHobbit can you do a reaction of….Harry Potter, The lion king or maybe, The Airbender?
