This anime has such a perfect ending, too bad we didn't see what Edwards kids name were and if Al married May, this was such a great fucking series, too bad it was only 64 episodes.
Edward gave the truth the right answer. Who needs alchemy when he has love for others as they have love for him, therefore humanity which father lacked. Ed learned the hard way that being able to do alchemy without a transmutation circle did not make him a god just give him an assumption that he is god. He learned humility hence conquering his own arrogance and embrancing humanity. He realised alchemy causes problems as well as solving them.
The guy in the doorway is "the universe" or "God" or "the truth". He is also "All", meaning he is everything in existence. Therefore, he is also Edward
@TheThejigsup Some little girl was transmuted by her own father into a half dog chimera so he could retain his alchemy license into chimera research. Scar later kills them both.
@khrocksforever Sad? I've seen people draw pictures of both her and her father's chimera forms having sex. Let that thought haunt your dreams at night.
@ODSTwarrior1 Every person has a gate and the gate is the source of all knowledge of alchemy. So by getting rid of his gate Ed gave up his ability to use alchemy forever.
@YTsucks300 Pride and Wrath forced him into a human transmutation circle and forced him to open it and see the truth which made him lose his eyesight.
An its funny how winry actually does cry tars of joy at the end cause I remember she had said that the only time she is going to be crying for them is wen they get there bodys back....
Ed actually is not going to lose his powers cause he is going to learn a different technique that is why he says in another episode he is leaving to learn another type of alchemy ...
@SynchroUEHLNFX you think that Dragon Ball Z sounds better in english than in japanese??? DBZ english dub is horrible, and so is the french one, i just can't decide which one is worse...I would have never liked DBZ if i wouldn't have watched it in japanese, i hated it before..
man u gotta love the truth the character is so damn meaningful. Spend all your time searching for the ultimate truth when its already right in front of you.
wow that was easy if he knew that from the beginning he could have brought his mom back. Now anyone can bring their loved ones back as long as they are willing to give up their alchemy powers.
@2shadowgamer2 No, Trisha actually died, therefor her ceased to exist. Al lost his body and soul through transmutation, so he was transported to the gate.
@2shadowgamer2 Al didn't die per se, because he was lost through alchemy instead of natural causes. His "death" was from human transmutation, and because his body was the toll it was sent to void where it became a part of his truth, whereas his soul was locked in the gate because it didn't have anywhere on Earth to return to. Trisha died due to reasons unrelated to human transmutation so she wasn't sent to the gate, and her spirit is irretrievable.
@2shadowgamer2 I don't think that was the point. I think his ability to use Alchemy made him arrogant because he thought he could solve everything with alchemy. I'd say it was a big learning moment and very powerful.
4:38 that sentence ruined the whole situation :( ( i dont know if he said something like this in the jap dub,I dotn remember it though but knowing he would come back....took the tension :/)
I love how the creators (<-sudden mental blank on names) could still add a li'l humour in a very serious moment, when Ed says: "Zampano, Mr Gorilla, Briggs Soldiers...." (lol, lol, Mr Gorilla XD)
i love how throughout the whole series, "truth"'s smiles are always sinister, but when ed gives him the right answer, you can see that "truth"'s smile is genuine and he's happy
Wouldn't you all love to relive this moment in a game? Well guys how about we tell Namco Bandai to make a PS3/Xbox 360 game that has BOTH series, movies and all the major characters from them all! AND online to! How about it?!
@happygaby1000 It's said in this video -.- The gate/portal of truth contains all knowledge/ abilities to do with alchemy. By giving it up you're giving up all your abilities in alchemy.
oh my god :'] watching this reminds me of how much i loved fma..i think il re watch it now...that didnt just pull on my heart strings, it ripped them out fma is the best anime ever
I loved this scene...its soo sweet! Ed starts as just an imature little kid but grows into a great man who is slightly taller than when he started out. <333 THUMBS UP IF YOU LOVE ED!!!
,,I'll be back in a few minutes'' <---that pretty much spoiled everything,good thing I watched jap dub first.Back then I thought he would sac himself.
al's my fav character im sad CURSE U WORLD WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
@Alexa10423 actually he has both ed al body were connected by blood every thing edward did he was doing for both bodies eat, sleep ,grow etc thts why edward isnt as tall as he should be
poor poor mustang....well people lets look at the bright side! at least he wont be able to see all the women he dates! littrally....not saying it as a bad thing i waz actually really sad when he went blind
@Fiestar2897 have you watched FMA:Brotherhood? >___>, i'll tell you anyways:
he was forced to do a human transmutation, when someone does that, they'll have to give something in exchange, and what it took away from him is his sight.
This scene encapsulates why i like this better than the original. Edward did not change AT ALL in the original. He started out as a hot tempered kid with a god complex and ended like that. Here he starts like that. He thought his alchemy put him on the level of a god. That changed when Nina died and soon he learned to lean on others like roy and the chimera. Him losing his alchemy was more of a side effect in the original and did not have the intended symbolism of ed learning humility.
"What do you mean lower myself? That's all I've ever been: a simple human who couldn't save one little girl, not even with Alchemy..." :'3 You go, Ed!
@TestMonkey254 I want to say, I disagree. I think he starts as so immature, which is funny, but then as he grows he learns to take the high road on some fights. This series is more serious, which I find so spell binding and disappointing. I miss the humour but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love brotherhood as much as the original. I think him losing his alchemy means that he loves everyone else more than just being able to preform alchemy. I just wanted to say that.
@Damon242 In my opinion it's the other way around the original they all talk about how much ed has grown but here they showed us. His giving up his alchemy showed that he was humble now. Telling us not showing us was a huge problem i had with the original especially on the part of dante and hoeinhiem who's motivations were rushed.
@TestMonkey254 I was referring more to him explaining his motivations in this scene. In both versions though we clearly get to see that Ed is willing to sacrifice himself, though I found it more gut-wrenching in the original that his sacrifice meant never (at least until the film) seeing his brother ever again.
I prefer the Brotherhood ending because I think it works with the narrative more for these characters, who have all gone through so much, to have a happy ending.
@TestMonkey254 I agree that Dante's motivations were rushed. The entire original series just had issue with the third act, perhaps overwhelmed by the mythology they had. It was very hit and miss.
@TestMonkey254 I can understand what they were going through, and they didn't have any other choice but to take it in their own direction. But I think that if the manga had been finished while the original series was being produced, and they were able to follow the anime through to manga's end, then it would have made for a version superior to either of these.
@Damon242 Dante's set up was great I mean she could have been some Shakespearean villain she could have been a grieving mother that went overboard after she lost her son and husband but we are never shown any of it although i do adore the 2003 series.
he just could of used the stone or his dad i mean cooooome on

@TestMonkey254 I agree that Dante's motivations were rushed. The entire original series just had issue with the third act, perhaps overwhelmed by the mythology they had. It was very hit and miss.

@TestMonkey254 I can understand what they were going through, and they didn't have any other choice but to take it in their own direction. But I think that if the manga had been finished while the original series was being produced, and they were able to follow the anime through to manga's end, then it would have made for a version superior to either of these.

@Damon242 Dante's set up was great I mean she could have been some Shakespearean villain she could have been a grieving mother that went overboard after she lost her son and husband but we are never shown any of it although i do adore the 2003 series.

@TestMonkey254 At the same time though, it is comforting knowing that once you've finished one series there's a whole other one to engage in.

@Damon242 I think the ending would have been more poetic without the movie or even if it killed edward off because the story would have been tragic.

@TestMonkey254 A tragic ending would definitely have made it a Shakespearean outing.
I found Bradley's end in the original series the most poetic.
I think you may be right about not having the film involved.
