Part 18: Jafar AGAIN, Rouge Experiment, and Inept King Simba

Sora & co chase after Jafar. Iago is reluctant to help and says he's at some ruins. So we try to go there but there's a sandstorm. Luckily, Genie gets rid of that for us. Iago acts suspiciously. I'M SURE HE'S TOTALLY NOT WORKING FOR JAFAR AGAIN OR ANYTHING.

We go to the ruins on Carpet and find a strange Jafar... thing. We chase it around until we eventually have to activate three switches with magic which we do to gain access to a large tower in the ruins. That's when we learn that... FREAKING CALLED IT. IAGO LED US ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE. HOW SHOCKING. (not)

We rush back to Agrabah but not before having to flee crumbling ruins. After that the Peddler confesses to us that he got fooled by Jafar. GEE. THAT'S TOTALLY SURPRISING TOO.

Jafar is confronted... and... Iago takes a hit for Aladdin?! Wow...

Jafar Genie is fought AGAIN. It's annoying but using the Reaction Command continuously leads to eventual victory. However... Agrabah got damaged, so, Genie has to repair it... to the same as it was. The world comes to a peaceful end.

I decide to do Titan Cup after that. Abuse of the Peter Pan summon and then the Genie summon for the final round leads to my victory on the first try.

So I move on to Halloween Town after that. To scattered Christmas presents being collected by Jack (Skellington). What are you doing...? He assures us he doesn't care about Christmas stuff anymore... but... he's still wearing the Santa suit...

Either way their returned and we learn more have been stolen. Lock, Shock and Barrel are suspected and fought but they say the only reason they were in the Santa Factory was to get stuff for the "friend" Dr. Finkelstein was making for them. So a plan is devised to used decoy presents to lure the present thief in.

This somehow works. The thief is... Dr. Finkelstein's experiment?! Okay...

We have to fight it and it's kind of annoying but I win regardless. Jack gets to see what's it like delivering presents and we're reminded of the true meaning of Christmas. Yes game, I already knew that.

So that is finished up. I was GOING to attempt Absent Silhouette Lexaeus after this but I lost access to Twilight Town. Which means I'm going to end up being over-leveled for this one too which may mean I'll beat it on my first try again. But I'm not counting on it. I'll do it when Twilight Town is revisited.

So I do Pride Lands again. A SCAR GHOST?!

Sora & co. go to report it to Simba and it's discovered that apparently Simba doesn't do much and everyone thinks he's an inept king. But Sora & co and his friends will him into action. Rafiki seems to think he's still hesitant in his heart though.

Either way, those annoying hyenas need to be tracked down so we can interrogate them for information regarding the Scar ghost. So that'll be next time.

Next time:

Simba needs to become an individual and be himself and no one else. GIANT HEARTLESS.

Also... Absent Silhouette Lexaeus is coming up. So I'll give my attempt guess for that too.

1,000+ attempts.
