Fai said: GRGRHRGHRHRGH, missed half of t. But what I have seen seemed great :3 Just rewatch the whole thing on animeblogz.com. Gluttony is just disgusting. Ooooh shit, Mustang's in trouble... and so is Ed, for that matter. Can't wait for next week's episode!! |

Bio said: adamantine said: Jaymie said: Yeah, it makes Ling look upset about her being injured where in the manga the implication is he could never hurt her, period. The manga scene echoes the reaction Hughes has to seeing his wife. So basically they're trying to kill the Ling/Lan Fan ship. >.>They're really doing the manga justice now (even though they made some weird changes, such as... Envy transforming into an injured Lan Fan instead of a masked one). That seems like reaching to me. I certainly didn't get that impression. In fact, I feel that removing the mask makes it easier to understand as a matter of attraction rather than loyalty to a subordinate. I also felt that way! And Envy as injuried Ran Fan looked cuter and more defenceless... My heart stopped for a moment at that scene ;-; I'm glad there's more Xing action. Really. I just love Ling, and his fight with Envy, although it was a bit short, showed he's not just the comedy character. Roy's TENSE situation, OMG!!! I totally forgot about that in the manga. I'm not even bothering to read the manga all over again, first because I don't have time and second because I don't want to be all "ah, but they didn't put that in the anime" or "they forgot about that scene" or "this scene is not like that!" and etc... I'm just loving FMA:B, cause I totally hated the first one. And OMG OMG Ed is sooo sexy in FMA:B ;---; I'm having major fangarsms with my fav chibi <333 [I can call him chibi, I'm the same size as he is ;__; *Ed complex as well*] Can't wait for the next episode!! *__* Inside Gluttony, oh yeah!! PS: Gluttony's inside reminds me of Pandora Hearts' Abyss. Or I'm just too fanatic about PH u_u oh well. |

| Love it, as always, of course. That's not really surprising, though. Ed and Roy are in tight situations~ Yay for RoyAi scenes. |
| Another great episode, it definitely didn't feel like a full 20 minutes. Perfect cliffhanger ending, now we just have to wait a whole 'nother week. XD Can't wait for the various awesome-ness that's in store in the next episode. Won't be specific, so's not to spoil people. >3< adamantine said: Jaymie said: Yeah, it makes Ling look upset about her being injured where in the manga the implication is he could never hurt her, period.

I think they must have changed it because they thought seeing her face would make it more personal? Idk. I highly, highly doubt they are going to kill any of the canon ships. |

Its so pathetic that they couldn't even edit the dialogues to adjust for that fact. The rest was good. um....envy kept refering to ling fighting wrath, not lust lol wait..really? I got pwned lol that's what you get for not paying attention :P No, Envy definatly said Lust. I mean, wtf? thank you for unpwning me :P see...the lust fight happened in the manga but they cut it out in the anime. Thats a very stupid oversight I say. Someone should be fired for this :P |

| thought i was the only one that noticed that..i was like WTF are they talking about, what ling and lust fight lol |
 |
| Naah, it wasn't the scriptwriter's fault, only the subbers'! Some of us just watched the subs with the mistake xP I am 100% positive that it was WRITTEN 'crossed swords with Lust' BUT... while what Envy said really could've been either Lust or Wrath (cause their pronunciation is very similar the way the Japanese say wrath), the subbers should've known better than that. It was something like 'rasto' for Lust and 'ra[h]ss' for Wrath...Don't shoot, that was just phonetic xP |

| Nice little episode though a bit to many "non serious scenes" if you ask me. And am I the only one who started to laugh when Hawkeye handed him the gun? I was like "WTH is is supposed to do with that 12 clip peashooter against a massive self regenerating lump of meat" I see the point in trying to make it all serious, giving him the item designed to kill peoples etc. But still laughable xD Very nice cliffhanger, cant wait to see how he gets out of there =O |
EternalDreamer said: Yeah that seemed a bit pointless. But I guess it would be enough to e. g. make your escape.And am I the only one who started to laugh when Hawkeye handed him the gun? Really enjoyed the episode, looking forward to the fight in the dark belly lol. |

| Doctor Marcoh : o And really, Envy looks all but male >.> He's goddamn ugly. And I'm doing as always, watching the episode at the same time as writing now. First of all, gotta say... Gluttony is.. scary shit O.O Cool first attack by Mustang btw, although it was completely uneffective xD And what was that strange dog that Ling spotted? : o Baaaawww too bad Mustang was of no use there really xD Now we'll get action with Ed, Al and Ling, wohoo : D ...wait the dog : o baaaaw Envy =.=' He's such a jerk. Also Bradley/Wrath's son, that Selim kid, damn that's an annoying voice he's got >.> And Lan Fan's too dedicated to her liege : o Now this is getting interesting, Mustang got himself into a rather tricky situation there : 3 And this.. is even more interesting, Ed's inside Gluttony's stomach, and Ling's probably there too then : o Too bad the episode ended there, and still it's a really great ED song, it's awesome : D So, next episode'll be pretty interesting too, it seems : D |

| Great episode. Can't wait for the next few episodes. Especially the revelations of the remaining homunculi (It'll take more episodes, but it's gonna be worth the wait) |
| Although I can say I'm a moderate anime watcher, I've never quite understood their seasons. (13 or 26?) So like only two more episodes and then season is over? Then what? Do we have to wait like we do for American TV shows? House just came back on and I'm just so happy. I dunno what I'd do without FMA. It's the only anime I'm currently watching. |
 |
| Great episode. I wish they would cut down on the comedy though, it really intrudes on the seriousness of the situation. |
     |
| They are doing such an amazing job with this series, the first one was good but this blows it AWAY. Are they going for 51 episodes again? |
 |
| Scary Gluttony..I was a little suprised by him "drinking" them.. And i love that little Panda. <33 |

| in the belly of the beast.... Great episode. Loving the manga adaption. I don't care if there are "minor" changes at all, still great to see it animated! Plus some people do need to stop hinting at the next episodes or at least throw it in a tag.... |
 |
| Ho shit. The ending of this episode was actually horrifying..Ed and Roy are BOTH fucked. |
 |
| Wow! Amazing episode. Can't wait for the next one. Ed is a God knows where and Mustang really got himself in deep shit now. Or maybe Wrath is conspiring against his maker and his actually gone tell Mustang everything. Just saying because i got some strange vibes from the conversation with Envy. Ed getting mad at Mustang for running with them when Gluttony was after him was really funny and the same goes for the failed fire attack Mustang tried. |
Jrittmayer said: They are doing such an amazing job with this series, the first one was good but this blows it AWAY. Are they going for 51 episodes again? Well, apparantly they haven't decided on that yet (or they just won't tell us), but I actually hope it'll be pretty long, like .. for example D.Gray-man (103 eps : D) And that's true, the original anime was great, but this is just so much better : D |

| yay! i really loved this episode! poor ed and ling.. |
"Perhaps the distant part of the sky always seems clearest, so that we will always strive to reach it."  chiquit |
| Woooow. It was an awesome episode. *_* I can't wait to the next one!!! |
 |
| Envy is so moe. |
| I haven't read the manga up to this point, so I somehow expected Ed to NOT get swallowed by Gluttony... and when he actually did I was just like... O_O. Still a really good episode. I'm enjoying all the Roy/Riza moments, hee. I hope Ed gets out alive... and in the preview he looked like he was actually talking to Envy. Weird. But yeah, he's the protagonist so I can only think that he will get out in the right... |
Jaymie said: Amazing cliffhanger. They're really doing the manga justice now. I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. It's true, they're doing a great job covering the manga, but lately, and especially now, I feel this adaptation lacks heart. It's just going through the motions. I don't feel connected to the characters in Brotherhood like I do when I read the manga or when I watched the first series. In short, Brotherhood is a homunculus of what FMA is. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| A so-so first half (not my favorite part in the manga either) but felt it picked up in the second half. That whole scene with Mustang in the room with the generals, about the "joke" about the Furher being a homunculus- WOW, that was chilling. |
 |
| so good =] |
     |
| Awesome!! Amazing cliffhanger! Ed x Ling x Envy in Gluttony's stomach & Roy talking with Fuhrer President, Wrath! Can't wait for next ep!! (This is getting rly exciting!!) rate: 6/5 ^.^ |
 When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. |

I just love the surprises and the cliffhangers in this series :) Totally agree ya :3 and that leads me to gawk at the end of the ep XD So amaazing *shudders with excitement* I have really convinced myself that Ed somehow managed to dodge Gluttony! So I was really surprised to see he's alive in him O.O <--That's the start of my 'staring open-mouthed' period Beyond all that.. The situation Mustang in is epic! oh my oh my oh my*runs around* Seriously, I didn't expect that all the higher ups are with Fuhrer! Dargh! I wonder what will he do?! |

I don't feel connected to the characters in Brotherhood like I do when I read the manga or when I watched the first series. In short, Brotherhood is a homunculus of what FMA is. I agree completely. I disagree. You probably feel that way because after reading the manga and watching the first adaption, you're not getting any new information. You're bored, even if you don't realize it, and that's simply because you're hearing the story for the third time. I watched the first 10 episodes of the first FMA, didn't like it -it dragged and Ed annoyed me - and dropped it. Then I picked Brotherhood up, watched the first 20 episodes, loved it, and decided to give the manga and original anime a go. When watching the original anime adaption I felt the same way that you feel about Brotherhood - that it, to use your words, 'lacked heart,' and I didn't feel as connected to the characters as I do with brotherhood, and with the manga. You'll find that most people that start with Brotherhood will take the side I'm taking, while most fans of the original adaption will have your preferences. It's the same with Dragon Ball Kai and Dragon Ball Z. You're not going to get as excited over a story you've already watched and already read, even if it is different in some aspects, than you would have had you not become quite so attached to the original. |
| omgomgomg i luuuuuved this episode! x3 i cnt wait for the next one cuz this arc wuz my fav one in the whole series <3 im kinda pissed at the people leaving posts complaining about the changes and humor and stuff, cuz im sure if they didnt make any changes people would complain that it wuz boring and exactly the same -_- people gotta stop complaining and enjoy the episode! ok rant done i cnt wait for the next ep! and i totally forgot about Roy's part in this until i saw the ep, so its good to be reminded xP maybe ill re-read the manga sumtime... Jrittmayer said: They are doing such an amazing job with this series, the first one was good but this blows it AWAY. Are they going for 51 episodes again? i think i heard there wuz gonna be around 60 eps, but i wouldnt put too much faith in that |

| The ending was brilliant, to find out the whole army is in a crisis of itself and the abundance of the Fuhrer being a Homunculus. Oh boy what a predicament Mustang is in now eh?! Lan Fan is kind of incompetent thinking she could be of any help to the other guys, she is more or less a pleb, sit down honey and wait anxiously to find out whether any other significant characters will be killed! God this series is great! Glad I picked it up! |
| zomg. Mustang... dai pinchi!!!!!!!1 |
   |
| Please please please tell me where can I find it subbed??? (I prefer online streaming) |
