This was a good episode to slow down all the fast paced action we had so far. I guess the pace will start picking up real soon.

This was a better episode than last week, nothing was really crammed in, therefore it has a relevant pace to it. I liked the doctor with his family, it was really emotional with him, I wonder what he has done, looks like he has a dark history. Also what Scar did to the other doctor's face was harsh, but I guess it was smart in its dark and dilluded way. Anyway hopefully we will see some action in the next episode!!


Well I´m not sure on this, but it looks likes Dr Knox works with Corpses. Perhaps as some sort of science on power source or use as Stone-food?

Did anyone notice or is it just me during the eye-catch that the guy saying "fullmetal alchemist" sounds much more enthusiastic than in previous episodes?

I found it quite funny to hear it in a such different tone than usual.

hi! First post. Loved the episode, especially the Dr. Knox scenes. One other scene that I loved was at the end of Roy and Ed's conversation, when Ed told Roy not to make Riza worry about him. Thought it was a nice touch showing how it's so apparent to everyone else :)

When Roy started reciting the chess pieces, it was obvious who's the queen, yet I was still anticipating it as if I dont know who it will be. XDDDDD

what Scar did to Dr. Marco's face is really... scary T^T

I would prefer to die than be saved by him ;A;

Same here. I also liked the fact that he had Havoc, his incredibly loyal brother-in-arms, as his knight.

what Scar did to Dr. Marco's face is really... scary T^T

I would prefer to die than be saved by him ;A;


He was responsible for sacrificing his fellow Ishbalans in creating the Philosopher's stone. He wasn't going to let him pass without inflicting at least a -little- bit of hurt on him.

Also, one thing I haven't heard a whole lot of people comment on is how awesome this version of Kimblee is. In the first series, he was just kind of a generic psychotic pyromaniac, but here there's so much more to him. Here he's totally unpredictable, s the scene with the fake bomb on the warden's wrist shows. There's a part of him that's smooth and sophisticated, and there's a part of him that's almost anarchistic.

Oh wow so now Kimbley is free from jail and suddenly got a whole philosopher's stone instead of just a piece from Envy. Now he's going to be harder to beat because of it. :(

Anyways I was shocked when Scar did that to Marcoh. Well I guess it was the right thing since he's on the run from the homonculus. Oh and they're going to the north. Is that the place where that new girl solder in the OP lives?

Also with Dr. Nox part, I guess he really did something bad in the past huh? So bad that he always think that he doesn't deserve to be thanked by people he treats.

Kimbley is out, I expect this character to be interesting.

Scar kinda over did it when he screwed Marcoh's face.
Riza is Roy's queen? Well that was a touching moment when he went all like "And my queen has been taken away from me" it's like a King with his kingdom crumbling, broke my heart into pieces.

Dr. Nox, I think that character isn't bad at all, he seems to be kind, regretting his past. Now that his family is around I hope nothing disturbs that peace. The preview seems to be interesting as usual, this series so far NEVER disappointed me.

Average episode, overall. We finally get to see Kimbley on the run, and so I can't wait for someone to kill him, from now on. Scar horrified my with what he did to Dr. Marcoh, but I guess that's nothing compared to the fact that he actually spared his life.
And yeah, the OP and the EP are just... AH!

Oh, so I was wrong about Dr.Nox's family. Well, whatever... That moment was pretty heartwarming. Loved it.

It seems like everyone's interested in researching alchemy now. Ed wants to find out about Eastern Alchemy, Scar wants to understand his brother's research... Things are just starting to get interesting.

Also, what is Roy planning? I always get so curious about that xD

so the group now goes to their assigned positions.

bastard King Bradley.

it seems Roy still has an ace up it's sleeve :P

hahaha Ed's drawing is soo funny.

so Ed now owes Roy 520 cenz :P

ahaha i wonder what Riza would look like if she saw Vanessa with Roy :)

Madam Christmas is soo secretive :P

looks like Grumman is going back in action :)

i feel sorry for Ran Fa, though Fu knows what she has done and still forgives her.

i actually thought Dr Knox family was all illusion or a dream.

guess it is real huh. they seem to know he's experiments as well.

that Kimbley is such a bastard, killing his superiors, and almost killed that guard back then.

pulling a prank like that can be scary O___O

so Envy gives Kimbley two philosophers stone.

he's gonna go crazy with that.

so Dr. Marcoh was alive and the blood on the wall was an animal.

and wow Scar really is brutal, then again this is nothing compare on what he felt back in Ishbal.

i wonder what is so special about Scar and May Chang's alchemy.

can't wait :D
