Wow the voice for Berry is the same voice for Jimmy Kudo, Jerry Jewell. It's kind of strange hearing a detective's voice on a killer...except Jerry also voiced Phantom Thief Kid....hmmm...I'M SO CONFLICTED!!!!!
omigosh im a psychic!!!! whenever i saw something for the first time i predicted exactly how it would turn out and i was right!!!!! the serial killer targeted winrey, that chick was actually the man and the serial killer, and the serial killer was going to put winrey in the fridge truck! although when ed cut the guys hand i thought that crazed look in his eye meant that he wanted to start chopping himself up but that didnt happen and was kinda weird so...
I knew that "lady" was a man! anyone can tell just by how he sounds and his facial structure! That chef must be blind and an idiot.... and why does Ed get knocked out all the damn time?!?!? he should have a concussion by now!
@Gryphll well, place yourself in his shoes. can you imagine you and your childhood friend being kidnapped by some phyco that wanted to cut you up and you remain perfectly calm. not to mention you're twelve. i would have bawled like a baby
I saw this episode a long time ago and forgot about it. But the minute Winry was gone because of that lady, the peices fell into place. i basically went " Wait.... Oh shit man!"
Okay I'm halfway through, and if there is one thing I know about refrigerated fucking trucks, It's that it is the serial killer's transport of choice!!!
I remember waking up at in the middle of the night and not being able to go to sleep, so I turned on the TV and watched this because it was just on. I was like, twelve (16 now) and this freaked me OUT. Hahahaa. But it's what caught my attention and that's the reason I love Fullmetal Alchemist. I forgot how many heart-wrenching moments there were. Though, I do think that Brotherhood plays out a lot better. This one has way too much filler. And yes, I understand the manga wasn't finished then. :)
What do y'all think of subtitles. For me it is hard to convey the emotions of the characters without being to understand the words. Ya know? The facial expressions help... a little, I guess.
@ScarletMoon11415 to be honest the first tw episodes were present and then up until episode 9 or ten it's al telling rose thier story. it's a flashback basically
Fuccccking hell this is why I don't read youtube comments. The two top rated "Porno Graffiti sucks." "FMAB sucks." What the fuck is this. I love FMA but I wish the fanbase wasn't a bunch of 12 year olds. mad.
This, boys and girls, is Barry the motherfucking Chopper. This is true fear, this is true emotion. This is tear-jerking and tugs at your heartstrings. This is something that the original FMA has accomplished throughout its entirety and that FMAB has barely touched on.
@gaaraanime5 sure this the orignal anime, but the manga is the orignal story and brotherhood has the original story in it both animes are good, but brotherhood is the true story
@SeanHogeOLE Brotherhood is the original story, yes, but this is pretty much just an alternate universe in a way. Brotherhood does have the original FMA story though, that is true.
@gaaraanime5 Brotherhood has tear jerking moments and true emotion with a better story not just cause its the original story but because its just better
@petplatypus After watching FMAB, I found a grand total of two tear-jerking/deep emotional moments. After watching FMA, I couldn't keep track of how many tear-jerking/deep emotional moments there were due to the sheer multitude of them.
@XxFruitsxBasketxX You're the one who has to be either joking, or just plain childish. FMAB insulted my intelligence at many points. I love the show, damnit, but it just made me feel dumber at several times. FMA never did that; it respected its audience by creating a mature atmosphere. FMAB broke their hold on maturity throughout the whole series, adding in those stupid little over-animated expressions every episode that must have been aimed at 6 year olds.
@gaaraanime5 Insulted your intelligence? You obviously didn't have enough intelligence to understand FMAB. Even though it isn't difficult to follow. I cannot tell you how many plot holes I found in FMA. Plus, the show had no emotion. Oh wait, yes it did. ANGST. Angst is all the emotion it flippin had. I've watched FMA twice, and not one character did I like. Not one. I can't find a single character I don't like in FMAB. Animation's worse? 2003 vs 2009 animation. Nuff said. How's FMA more mature?
@XxFruitsxBasketxX I understood it full well. The plot isn't what I had problems with; it was the execution. Also, angst, and that's it? Hell no. The series was naturally more engaging because of how well it was executed. Execution is my key complaint here. FMA took itself seriously at most points and didn't dumb itself down. FMAB took itself seriously a lot less. FMA is more mature because it took itself seriously at nearly every point. FMAB crammed stupid "humorous" bits into itself that
@XxFruitsxBasketxX (cont.) weren't funny in the least. They made me feel like I was watching an American cartoon, and I watch anime to escape that idiocy. I watched FMAB to watch FMAB, not generic bullshit anime "humor". That's actually what I was referring to by my complaints with the animation. The animation action-wise and normally was amazing compared to FMA, but it's the stupid overly animated "humor" that killed it and made it seem like a show for 6 year old children.
@gaaraanime5 Okay, it seems your main problem is the humor. FMAB did have generic anime humor, but the really awesome characters and scenes easily made up for that. FMA had the worst humor ever. This is how they play out their comical parts. 1)insert angsty scene. 2)QUICK, ADD COMIC RELIEF! WE NEED COMIC RELIEF AFTER THIS SERIOUS SCENE! Every. damn. scene. FMAB was maybe a little generic, but it wasn't used as comic relief after a serious scene. You still haven't told me how FMA is more "mature"
@XxFruitsxBasketxX Really? That's how FMAB felt to me. Shoving in inappropriate humor in inappropriate places. And the humor isn't my main problem; like I said, my main problem is the execution overall. The humor does contribute to that, but it's not the only thing. They had music in inappropriate places at times, for example, trying to be serious but only giving the vibe of "shh, this is a serious moment in a kid's show", not an actual effective impact. Another is that the dialogue at many
@XxFruitsxBasketxX (cont.) points in FMAB was absolutely laughable. They half-assed it quite a lot, it seems. I swear, the dialogue just sucked at points. I never had that problem with FMA, though. Adding all of this together, FMAB's execution wasn't as effective as FMA's. FMA felt like a real, dramatic series all throughout and treated itself as such (making it mature). FMAB felt like a little kid's show with its dumb humor, half-assed dialogue, and childish attempts at several serious moments.
@gaaraanime5 Hahaha you're trolling right? FMA felt like it was trying way to hard to be a "deep anime", but in reality it's just melodramatic and psuedo-intellectual bullshit. Not to mention its full of plot-holes and inconsistencies. It was an anime that started way before the manga was finished so the writers wrote themselves in a corner trying to meet deadlines. Also, a character angsting on about how "worthless we are as humans" with brothers playing in the background =/= deep or "mature".
@XxFruitsxBasketxX If anything, you're the one that I'm wondering who's trolling or not. Your avatar is a sign. Regardless, trust me, I wouldn't be able to troll this well if I tried.
I keep hearing about these plot-holes...would you care to explain what they are?
And if that's honestly the only thing that you saw in FMA (the "worthless") thing, then you evidently weren't paying attention enough. The conversation between Ed and Roy in episode 48 is a great example of maturity.
@TheWAW09 This series is far past the point of filler. Due to it following such a massively different direction than the original storyline, it just becomes a separate series, no longer bound by what is filler and what isn't.
@gaaraanime5 This is probably the most emotional and best ep of FMA however FMAB Ep Interlude Party and Reunion ending are two of the ultimate tear jerking I would say. This ep although is amazing as well though.
the theme songs are good..its just they dont fit the anime at all! this is a horribly sad anime and the theme songs are all happy...if they were darker it would be perfect
I like how they show commercials related to the NFL and about shaving when a lot of the viewers are probably young and most likely don't care about sports.

@TheWAW09 This series is far past the point of filler. Due to it following such a massively different direction than the original storyline, it just becomes a separate series, no longer bound by what is filler and what isn't.

@gaaraanime5 This is probably the most emotional and best ep of FMA however FMAB Ep Interlude Party and Reunion ending are two of the ultimate tear jerking I would say. This ep although is amazing as well though.

It seems these circles can be any size, so why do some people draw massive ones? doesn't that waste time?

@TheLycanjake1
The larger the circle, the more energy can be put in. In other words, larger/more powerful transmutation. And alchemists are pretty quick at it.

@TheLycanjake1 They can be any size, but it depends on what the Alchemist is trying to create's size.

I like how they show commercials related to the NFL and about shaving when a lot of the viewers are probably young and most likely don't care about sports.
