Mei Chang and Xiao-Mei were adorable and funny! I liked scenes with them and Scar, generally speaking I really enjoy seeing characters in animes who own a little pet bonded to them that copies instantly their emotions.

Did Scar forgot about that guy with moustaches' betrayal back in Ishbalan Camp...?

I'm glad we were able to see some part of FMA's universe world map, along with learning 'bout certain places, countries.

Ling Yao and his ninjas... interesting mix, plus the ninjas seem to be very skilled. Kinda expected from prince's bodyguards.

About new opening: it was fine, but I like the previous one way, way more.

One of the notable complaints I had with the show was that apart from Elric brothers, there doesn't seem to be any characters who are interesting enough for you to care about them and stand on its own in the narrative except for like one, actually two (Scar and Führer). Hopefully this is going to change with the addition of Ling and May, I already like their introduction a lot so fingers crossed. This episode is decent enough

Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because they change the op. The first one was godly.

Ling is amazing.

I think I like OP1 better than OP2.

A lot of characters from the Eastern region of Xing were introduced and they are quite the handful. They're pretty likable if not troublesome and I'd love to get to know them better.

With Bradley being one of the biggest baddies of them all, I guess Scar's going to end up as some sort of antihero eventually. It might not be in an instant, but he's surely on the way to that path because of how he didn't insist on getting rid Mei and Yoki immediately.

After remembering most of the truth, Alphonse now knows how to do circleless transmutations. Impressive!

New op and new characters.

Ling is going to be interesting.

Also, the return of Barry, the Chopper.

New content time!

I liked this episode a lot. From the awesome new OP to the ED, to the introductions of Mei and Ling Yao (and Lan Fan and Fu), it was overall a really fun little chaotic episode, especially with how much of a troll Ling was here. Good action too between Ed and Lan Fan.

Scar wanted to pet the panda, he likes cute things but his appearance usually scares them away.

based portrayal of chinese people. I never really cared for them but apparently they're supposed to be important in the story

Speaking of which if our main characters showed that they were actually dynamic characters they would've already had the philosopher's stone and their bodies by now. I'm just watching rn to see Scar's development that's all I really care about

Pretty good episode
Followed the manga mostly .
removed two or three things I wished they would have added , but oh well.
Either way , this was mostly a " how and why " episode.
Showed why and how the brother came to be how they are.
with Ed seeing the Truth .
then Roy meeting the brothers
Ed vowing to take 1 year to recover and him consequently being able to transmute without Circles thanks to him having seen "IT" ( and Al not remembering).
And finally Ed's Exam to become a state alchemist , where he promtly attacked Bradly who told him he still doesn't know the world xD.
Thus showing how the fuhrur gave Ed an "ironic" name : the FullMetal Alchemist.

Next week , they goin' to Liore/Reole ~

oh , and the score was pretty darn awesome. Akira Senju delivers !!

Got a new opening and ending which I quite like, this episode was really good, we got to see the return of Barry the Chopper and now Mustang and Riza know about the stuff that went down at Lab 5, we have been introduced to a few new characters the adorable Mei and the quirky prince of Ying. I'm not sure I'm in the like or dislike camp when it comes to the latter but I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with Ying next. Looks like the next episode is going to be quite a sad one, I really don't Ed and Al to be sad about Hughes but it has to happen eventually.

The fight scenes in this episode were amazing. I really liked seeing the difference in fighting styles between the characters from Xing and Amestris 
The new op and ed were also pretty nice

Nice new opening and ending titles, admittedly prefer the old ones but it doesn't detract from the over all story and beautiful art work depicted in the episodes previous and episodes to come.

This episode was a wonderful start to the new season, nice entry episode, plus Roy looked damn good in his investigative get up

So, know we understand why Armstrong didn't tell the boys about Huges. Because the writer wanted to put an episode for them to grieve for Hughes and wanted to somehow to put Yao with Ed and Al. BTW can someone explain the logic of the series to me? How is it that someone goes to a foreign land and his bodyguards put a knife under a state alchemist throat, nearly killing him and then everyone behaves like everything is alright?
