| Awesome episode as always. The best shounen together with One Piece. |
 |
| Al's scene was quite touching.. I agree with everyone, superb ep!! *doesn't want it to end yet* ;_; |
| Really awesome ep aahh 2 more to go =( |
 |
| Brilliant episode! I'm so impressed with how the scenes have been portrayed in the anime. Especially Al's sacrifice, I was worried the anime would make it look cheesier than it actually is ~__~ And after reading this thread, I actually want to go watch the crappy subs nao! Hahaha |
| 頭脳は子供、見た目は大人！ ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ |
| nice explosions everywhere ye!!! and thats why the title is Brotherhood because of Ed and Al |
| Great episode as expected, the animation was pretty much perfect in this one. I've gotta say they've adapted it very well from the manga, can't wait for the last two episodes. |
 |
| Each episode is better and more EPIC than the previous one. I can't wait for the last two episodes. |
| The fight scene with Homunculus was just plain out Awesome in every. It became epic after Al sacrificed himself to give Ed his arm back. The animation in this episode was done pretty good. |

| I was positively shaking during Al's sacrifice, even more than in the manga. Great ep. |
 |
| I know I wasn't the only one shouting "Go!!! Ed!! Kick his ass!!!" That episode was just so amazing. This anime is amazing as well, I'm glade I'm able to see it... God damn...only two episodes left..so sad. |
 |
| By far the most intense episode so far. I even cried. Can't wait for the rest. |
 |
| This is one of the best stories ever told. World classics for sure. 10/10 |
 Credits for the av go to whispering-eden.livejournal.com =) I used to be Dolce_Vitka here, but Vitka_Lynx is my nickname at alost all other sites, so I decided to take it here, too ^___^ |
| watched the tmd subs(i believe).....so much better!! :D |
| It was awesome! Yes! Can't wait for next week. |
silkuze said: Wait, so Father has got a shitload of Philosopher's Stones, he swallowed God and still he's easier to defeat than Homunculus, for example Bradley? |
| DAMN! I'm sure I will cry a lot if I hadn't read the manga first, but still, I alomost cried... >< |
maji_saikou said: O-M-G! Just one word: KANDOU ! Cant find the English word for it xD Really loved this episode!! I think the word you want 2 use is epic |
 |
| Wow! Just wow :3 I was a little disappointed over how easy they "won" over Father though. |
 |
| THIS IS ANIMATION. THIS IS ACTION. THIS IS FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST. THIS IS EPICNESS. ANd I'm not a FMA fan, I just thoroughly enjoyed this episode. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Its just weird, I finished the manga and felt content, but now as im watching the series end im having a hard time believing its gonna end. 2 more to go. |
| EPIC EPISODE!!!! Alphonse sacrifices himself for his brother. His brother in rage with his body parts back goes in rage and destroys the homunculus! Will he be able to save Alphonse after its all over? Will he be willing to sacrifice a human life to get his brother back? |
 |
| Watched tmd's version online , and gotta admit , the subs make this episode look better . Wow . . Kameda's work in two important scenes is worthy of appreciation . . :) still can't find an eclipse version though :( |
| 5/5 Nothing more to say |
 |
| Am I the only one who got goosebumps??? WOW, what an episode, what a series. Also, can we stop fighting about who makes the discussion and what the poll says, this is an utterly stupid waste of time, we're here to discuss FMA, not the poll or who makes the thread. I think that the forum moderators should just make an automatic discussion thread for every episode, that way we don't have a million people bitching every week. |
| Man, I wanted to cry. :o |
 |
| Holy fuck. I am astounded. I'm kind of pissed at the first anime though. They spoiled what Al did in THIS version, by having him do nearly the same thing in their version. No matter how you look at it, that was NO coincidence. Especially since we know that they knew the ending back then. |

| AWESOME EPISODE!!! And yes,the first anime is full of crap!! |
KazeFalcon said: AWESOME EPISODE!!! And yes,the first anime is full of crap!! Thank you, you're absolutely correct. NOW, can we please lower their ridiculously high rating that they have. Honestly 8.66 for an anime that DOESN'T follow the manga, and had a ridiculous "anime-only" ending?? Seems like there are too many HYPOCRITES in MAL, they HATE fillers, but that's only when they are aware of it. In other words most people who saw the first FMA, had not read the manga, therefore they thought it was a "masterpiece" despite the fact it was actually crap. |

Too true, same thing goes for those who complain about anime being cut/uncut. If they can watch the cut version and not notice the difference...then whats the point? |

| The action in this is pretty amazing. |
| Ok. I've got a question. Is Al dead now? The way it was translated (I think I got a decent translation), it sounded like he was giving up the blood seal, which had been what sealed his soul to the armor, and re-accepting his body. The blood seal had cost Ed's arm, so that was returned to him. Since both the arm, and Al's body disappeared from the gate area, it wasn't really explained well. |
 "You're such an idiot." ~Celty (Durarara) "How many seconds until the boy confesses his love to the girl?" ~Durarara Should it be sad now that twice in a season I've been glad that subs scrolls by to quickly for me to process? |
| @Jrittmayer , fai did start the thread this time around , but , it was removed (by moderators most probably) the first anime was a masterpiece in its own right , so please don't degrade it . Its not crap . . And al hasn't died yet . He's just locked in front of the gate and has no way out . . XVID version {TMD} |

silent_killer said: still can't find an eclipse version though :( Nothing biggy, since I have Jap 101, and the episode was soooo full of actions (minimal dialog) i understood most of it. anyways, I will be waiting for Eclipse: Just that their TL moved to Tokyo, FMA 62 predicted for tuesday night [Europe]. Thats all I have got from Eclipse. |

| I cried. A really good episode :) |
silent_killer said: the first anime was a masterpiece in its own right , so please don't degrade it . Its not crap . . Whether or not it was good, is completely up to the viewer, I however don't like the Hypocrisy associated with the first FMA. Many people blame fillers for the hating of big anime such as Naruto and Bleach, many people blame "anime-only" endings for the same hating of other series like Claymore, Soul Eater, Love Hina, Hellsing (the original), Tsubasa Chronicle, I could keep going but there are too many to name. However, the first FMA, had BOTH fillers and an "anime-only" ending, and yet it was hailed as a masterpiece, and "one of the best". BUT NOW that everyone has seen just how FMA REALLY IS, many have questioned themselves: What was so great about the first FMA??? The fact is that many people who saw the first FMA had not read the manga, and therefore did not know that the MAJORITY of the first FMA was filler and NOT THE FMA STORY AT ALL. All I'm saying is that I LOVE FMA manga and THIS anime, However; the first FMA, IN MY OPINION was not good at all and should be downgraded in terms of rankings. (only because this is the accurate story) |

(only because this is the accurate story) I loved the first anime, but had to lower my score on it a notch when I started with the manga and Brotherhood storyline, because that showed me the true potential of FMA as a work of fiction. Can't say I didn't enjoy the first anime so it still gets a decent score, but I did lower it from a 9 to an 8. Brotherhood is on the verge of getting a 10. |

Mindless mind *uck in the last episode . I wasn't trying to compare Naruto and Bleach to the first FMA, just what they both have in common which was FILLERS. FMA is a great series, I just have a problem with the first FMA. Just like Hellsing is another great series, and just like FMA, the first Hellsing was not made to follow the manga and nor did it do a very good job at the end. Soul Eater is a perfect example of a good manga getting an anime adaptation, and then having that anime end completely OUTSIDE the manga, and I guess it's not surprising that BONES was in charge of both the first FMA and Soul Eater. If Soul Eater were remade 6 years from now, and they followed it to the end just like the manga, WITHOUT fillers, I would also be saying the same thing about Soul Eater that I'm saying about FMA. Remakes (in anime) are made to RIGHT the WRONGS, and I applaud Bones for remaking FMA. |
| Wow, this was the best episode after the episodes with King Bradley Vs. everyone. |
 |
| Great episode, great series, 2 more episodes to go and then it's over. But seriously, this anime will be a classic for years to come. |
