^Problem is Nick, that excessive Naruto had made people blind to the amazing aspect of the Magi flashback. Rarely do you ever get such a well crafted one that isn't chopped up into bits and full of so many convenient asspulls *cough*Naruto*cough*One Piece*cough*Bleach*cough*. It was clear that there was a proper vision in that arc. Even the Sinbad reveal made a lot of sense thanks to it.
