romagia said: le empowered female character trope I never got how the female characters in FMA are any more empowered than other shounen. Aside from Riza, none of the other female characters are important. Winry only fix windmill and is a love interest Armstrong is a stereotypical strong woman but does nothing out of value for the plot Lust is the stereotypical deadly temptation Edward's teacher is..well she is good so I will count her with Riza That glass girl is ??? So two empowered female characters that's not much and can be found even in a shounen like One Piece. |

| People love it because of Olivier, who happens to be one of the hottest anime women ever. |
 |
| This type of threads should be banned from MAL. OT: It's the closest thing to a flawless anime with pretty much universal appeal and zero controversy. Just like I said before, the highest rated anime is not the most loved one but rather the least hated popular one, always. |

When people criticize Shounen manga for sexism, their criticism boils down to the mangaka being a guy. |

h3witt said: despite what the name might imply, animation isn't the main attraction of animefirst time posting soz guys if its been done before. I just don't find it flawless at all and i'm trying to figure out why animations such as redline do horribly finacially and this stuff is loved so widely. |

h3witt said: first time posting soz guys if its been done before. I just don't find it flawless at all and i'm trying to figure out why animations such as redline do horribly finacially and this stuff is loved so widely. Because Redline is a much bigger risk. FMA already has an established fanbase in the manga. While Redline was very riskly movie project. I feel you though. I think FMA is just above average but not good or great, and it's definitely not flawless or close to it. |

| Please, don't let this start a string a threads about FMA today. Yesterday was HxH and the day before that was Naruto -_- |

| Won't say FMAB is a masterpiece, but it's not far off from the fence. In my honest opinion, it does tackle its themes better than Psycho Pass does on its philosophy. You might want to research about Friedrich Nietzsche because the geopolitics, alchemy and characters all subtly contribute to heavy themes from this philosopher (Death of God, The Last Man, Ubermensch, eternal recurrence etc.). It's very much the classic interplay between science and religion but with a shounen spin on it. |

People should stop responding to shitty threads like this or they're just going to continue. frankly i just find it unimaginative and generic. sadly this is the highest rated hence some people must be rating it a 10. Going into the animation industry i want to make niche stuff not just a circle with a triangle chin. This thread is more to see why works by masaaki yuasa, satoshi kon, takeshi koike and other stylised animators are not as appreciated. just a general survey to see opinions Because it's not about the visuals but about what they're showing. If you think that Yuasa, Satoshi and other animators like that are better just because they're stuff looks fancier then you're just as dumb as the people that avoid those shows because they look weird. FMA:B is easily one of the 2 best shounen adaptations ever and easily deserves a spot among the best series made. Maybe it doesn't in your opinion but to think that it's not good at all is an exaggeration that makes you seem like an incredibly shitty troll that is if you aren't one. |

Um, this is just MAL dude, why are you so dramatic? If you were talking about something like Spirited Away that won an oscar then your lamentations would make more sense. |

Punk434says said: Karadzic said: Stay deluded.>objectively >the best *tips fedora Are you aware of the irony here? There is no objectivity in storytelling mediums beyond factual information (number of episodes, names of the characters, their character traits, the summary of events, etc) |

h3witt said: Kruzy said: ... Satoshi kon and masaaki yausa animes do have other qualities apart from fancy animations. They do but you said it in a way that just because they look fancier they're better than FMA:B. h3witt said: Whats with all the angry attitude? is this how anime forums always are or do i need to make a thread on who is the sexiest moe character so we can all join in on a circle jerk. You just come off as a shitty troll especially in these days where every third post is just low level bait. I prefer discussion posts like this but you should put it in some more effort if you want people to take you seriously. |
