They really changed the animation. In the manga, Alibaba was ALMOST as much of a greedy ass as that fat merchant guy. It really made the scene with the wine stand out and make him look somewhat human to Alladin, which is why he followed Alibaba in the first place; in fact, EVERY character at the beginning is a complete plantain besides Alladin and that was the first time the poor kid had ever seen someone do something good for someone else. It took a HUGE amout of character development over a long period of time for manga Alibaba to even be close to ep1 animation Alibaba, which is why I'm somewhat worried that this show won't be as long as it could be since pomegranate just plain won't make sense later on; it will either look like people are underreacting or overreacting in a ton of situations, depending on the amount they scaled the personalities.
Side note, I would totally let Morgiana kick my skull in, those feet man...
