There is no need for a thread like this.... FMA B, Old FMA , and HxH 13 are all great  |
| They're both better than the "big three", so who cares. Sides, you can also mention Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. |

| FMA= FMA:B > HxH 2011 >>>>> HxH '99 FMA is just better in most respects. Tells a more intricate story with more interesting and likeable characters and combines more genres for an overall well-packed story. HxH is too inconsistent in comparison, and '99 was just bad. Half of it is spent on one of the less interesting arcs and slowest starts in anime in general. Couldn't finish it when the better 2011 version was available to watch. |

| HxH 1999 => FMA:B > FMA >>>>> HxH 2011. Can't decide which one I like better, HxH 1999 or FMA:B. Maybe HxH 1999 a little bit more but it lacked the emotional impact that FMA:B had. I still put it in front of FMA:B though, slightly. |

| I wonder if FMA 2003 and HxH 1999 would still be ranked so low (well not so much) on this site (or elsewhere) if FMA;B and HxH 2011 never existed |
Agafin said: ^^ You gave it a 7 though, there can't be that many ">"s 7 by my ''I'm new to anime'' standards, which is a 5 or a 6 by my standards today, don't feel a point in changing it. I would re-watch FMA:B just to see why it's praised so much, maybe I've missed a lot of stuff, when I first watched, but then again the thought of watching it again, bores me a lot. |

It's easy to watch, widespread, and relatively well-done, so it's basically the Bebop effect. He doesn't like Bebop either. Interesting to see all the choices for '99. This should have a poll. |

My exact sentiment. But rather than impressive, memorable is a more fitting word for me. Most of my thoughts on FMA:B are this simple: Exciting beginning, forgettable and boring middle (which is the majority of the show) and a good albeit anti climactic ending. |

That's actually interesting because those are generally the least liked episodes. Taking your post in opposite would then be a better perspective. |

At first I found very interesting the main plot because then the series was deeper and more serious (like the priest at Lior, the incident with Nina, and Hughes). As the series went by, I found the villains to be kind of boring (I am talking about the 7 sins mainstream concept). What I did not like at the middle of the series was the shounen-ish part with the little girl and her pet and the other minor characters, as well as the part with Armstrong's sister (pretty boring for me). It was not bad, but what I expected from FMAB was a more mature, interesting and captivating story. I hadn't checked the genres back then, so I am to blame, but that's the reason why I was kind of disappointed- I thought it would be way better if there was no shounen element or unfitting comedy. The last episodes were pretty good though. |

And the part with the little girl and her pet were among the first 10 episodes of the series. |

| HxH and FMA are basicly equals to me, but as time passes I'm leaning more towards FMA. It's more story centered and had a satisfying conclusion, and overall I like everything about it slightly more. But I believe if HxH will ever be continued and concluded it could easily become the next FMA:B. Well at least in quality, I doubt about the popularity. |

Because FMA encompasses a lot of different genres. If so, then HxH would kind of fall under the same category, as many don't think it fits its demographic either. |

I just think it would be better off as a seinen series. Regarding HxH, I found the first arcs kind of cheerful and it seemed like it targeted the wrong age group, but it got better later on imo. |
| Like I've read above, my opinion is that FMA could be way better if it had a more dramatic atmosphere, seriousness and depth, as well as avoid the shounen mood while fighting. I wasn't talking about its age group target.. About HxH, we'll see if there's still a difference since a new arc, probably as big as CA is being prepared. |

Funny enough, those things you said it didn't have are usually what it gets praised for. That applies more to FMA 2003 than Brotherhood though. |

danae17 said: Seinen is only a demographic tag, only the target age and gender group, it has no other real definition. Say dramatic atmosphere, depth, etc instead because there are many seinen stories that don't have that at all so it doesn't help at all.Like I've read above, my opinion is that FMA could be way better if it had a more dramatic atmosphere, seriousness and depth, as well as avoid the shounen mood while fighting.
