Armstrong was just great dealing with Raven, now Kimbley is the main antagonist for some weeks, cruel how they always threat the Elrics with Winry.
Completely agree with everything said here.

Good episode, Raven's death didn't feel that satisfying because he wasn't a well-done character to begin with... but I liked the rest

4/5

What is Ed and Al's father doing ??Who are the people that he counted??
He's torn up his chest with his bare hands!!! Psycho..
Pervert bastard Raven just got stabbed by Olivier..Deserved it ..
Red alchemist brought Winry to the North. Very suspicious act..

I love General Armstrong. Literally love her.

"You're to be a foundation of the State" Well played indeed.

Poor WInry being used as a hostage. The Elric brothers need to get her out of the country ASAP.

armstrong family is the best set of characters i have seen ever
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

I like Hhh, I feel bad for him, too bad Trisha can't last long enough, and now Ed dislike him.. I hope they clear out their misunderstanding. I have a feeling there will be a bloodshed here in that base, to advance the plot.. that would be sad..

Lol this ^. I thought that was Envy too. Man, Ed and Al gotta tell Winry what's up so that she can be alert too.

Well well, seems like Roy's buying all those flowers for Armstrong nee-san. Paying a visit to the North soon?

Does no one honestly understand how much I hate Winry? She's so useless, she fits the stereotypical anime girl who always gets in the way for everything.
Pirates are evil? The Marines are righteous? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history! Kids who have never seen peace and kids who have never seen war have different values! Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is neutral ground! Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!

Hohenheim is one of my favourite characters in this series, and the one that I really want a happy ending for. What an unhappy man. Who can also do really cool stuff. It's just tragic that the only family photo he has caught him crying in probably one of the only times in his life
Also that opening scene with him digging into his chest against a blue sky was striking

Olivia was a lot of bark before this episode and now we see some bite. I was impressed. She's stone cold.

Omg, Winry is such a useless character. Always going to be that weakspot as a naive girl to set up pressure on the elrics....again and again and again....

At least Amstrong was a bad ass and killed Raven.

Raven had that coming, but drowning in concrete was brutal. Of course Winry is being used against Ed and Al again, nooooo. I guess Kimblee will be the antagonist for the duration of the time that Ed and Al spend in the north?

Also, more mystery to the enigma that is Hohenheim. Looking forwards to learning more about him.

Good to see a bit more of Ed's dad.
That's a nice way to kill someone haha, Mira did a great job.
Kimblee is really smart, decided to bring Winry so he can show the boys that they have the power over them.

Every episode new twists and new interesting things that happen. Mira is so badass, I saw that coming with Raven. But it's good that he's out of the way. Lol when she said "Make the ground really even" :D

Now Kimblee is the main enemy for the the Elric brothers and Mira Armstrong. I didn't expect that Winry would appear. But I'm also sure that it's not a good idea to threaten Ed and Al with Winry as a hostage in front of them.

And of course at the end the thing Mustang and all these information he got even from the old woman with the flowers was perfect. "I think I will buy all of your flowers" :P


PS: Now at the beginning you could finally see which art of person Hohenheim is. Immortal body and then you wish you could get old and die with your family. Omg and the photo where he's crying ;_;

So Winry's in the North now hey.. I'm a bit confused, so why was she exactly sent up to the North? Like I know she was a hostage the whole time, but like does this mean that Bradley knew that Ed and Al told/were going to tell Olivier the truth? Orrrrrrr

Probably to show dominance, that Bradley is not afraid to actually do what he promised, killing people close to him if necessary.

The intro was just so good, it was so deep and made so much sense. I think I shed a tear or two tbh.
The episode wasn't that bad but I still gave it 3 cause it feels really dull to me since they met their uncle or something. The scenario isn't progressing at all, at this point we're just given random conflicting reasons as for why it's supposed to go to shit in the end. I think the show focuses too much on that and not enough on the progression of the story which is a shame...
An entire episode about the Elric's childhood would have been good enough for me, I would have given it a 5/5 instead of a 3.

Raven got wrecked and Olivier Armstrong showed to everyone that her men - despite the rules prevailing in her stronghold - are the most important for her.

Lieutenant General Raven was so careless that he revealed all of Central's dastardly plans and their connection to the Humonculi to everyone in Briggs because of Armstrong vaguely leaning towards a yes. It was very satisfying to see his smug face turn into one full of terror when he realized that not of them were interested in his lofty proposition.

Raven might have been dealt with but Kimblee will be more troublesome to deal with though, bringing in Winry as a living hostage. Pride's made his brutal debut and he's definitely the most violent one among them.

Kimblee just steals every scene he is in. This was a great episode, but I must admit that I like Kimblee's character more than most of the good guys.

Fuck Raven, Olivier slaughtered his ass big time and I have to say, it was satisfying to watch. Winry also showed up at Fort Briggs, while sweet she was also a bit gullible too. She played right into Kimblee/the Fuhrer's hands by showing up there, even if she came to help Ed adjust to the automail meant for cold weather and to just meet the both of them. Ed and Al now have an extra major thing to worry about for now, and almost felt like they got handed a reminder by them to know their place or else...
