Isn't she called Olivia? as Oliver would be a name for a male... And they sound pretty much the same. Not that I really care.

Mustang was useless. Again. x'D
But it's great seeing those old faces again.


lol her name is olivier.....its been debated a long time among manga fans but arakawa said its olivier :)

Her name is spelled like this in Japanese:

オリヴィエ

That's O-ri-bi-EH.

If it was supposed to be "Olivia" it would be spelled like this:

オリヴィエア (O-ri-bi-AH)

I fail to see why there's any confusion about this at all. If they wanted it to be "olivia" the katakana would be different.

Actually her name is O-ri-vi-e. This (ヴィ) is a rarely used katakana which is (vi) not (bi).

When translated to English (remember none of the characters in FMA are Japanese, they're supposed to be from Europe) her name is Olivier.

Oh really?
Hope they're better than the previous two then because personally I think it's unfitting garbage xD

Great build-up episode with plenty of old familiar faces, but nothing spectacular if you ask me. I'm much more exited for the next episode and the so called "immortal" army =D
Though somehow I got the feeling that the line 'mors vincit omnia' will apply to them as well ;)

There are loads of openings and endings that are much better in every way compared to the one's we've seen in this version of FMA.
Right on top of my head I can at least name a few. I'm too lazy to find out the exact name of the songs though so I'll just list the animes ;)
Higurashi no naku koro ni
Ghost In The Shell
Lucky Star
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya + S2
Ichigo Mashimaro
Clannad After story

All of the above have good memorable OP and/or EDs and I'm positive there are plenty more out there that I've not yet even heard that still is better than the FMA OP xD
I don't know but it's something about it that make me want to mute the sound every time it plays^^

besides the higurashi themes , i really don't like any of those anime themes you've mentioned . . I always skipped thru most of them when i watched the respective anime . .
It just depends upon the choice of an individual . . You like themes , which i don't like , and i like themes , which you don't like . . . . I wouldn't have cared if you'd targeted any other op . . . But you targeted PERIOD . . . . Its my favourite OP THEME of all time . . . Ha ha ha . . And nothin can beat PERIOD for me :) :) :) :)

and i know this is the wrong place to ask this question , but i really wanna know . . anyone knows where noteDhero is . . . .

NUFF SAID.

Man those white zombies are much more creepier animated. Can't wait 'til Olivier whoops Sloth next episode. xD
And I'm really excited for the new OP/ED. The current ones are my favorites (Especially Shunkan Sentimental) and I really hope Sid can top it.

I love Olivier, she's so badass and awesome. Also, Pride is just gets creepier with each episode, and I wonder what is he telling Father in Morse code or whatever it is. x__x God, he's creepy. And omg! Maris Ross and Havoc are baaaack. Awesome.

The first part was a real letdown, unrealistic and excessively mushy to please the shonen audience. The second part was a bit better but it was a disapointingly slow and uneventful episode overall. They lost themselves with secondary characters and uninteresting subplots, and that's a shame after 10 or so fantastic ones.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

They're no Lan Fan. Havoc was on a phone, and Maria drove a truck. They were never important enough for me to care or miss them. Hence why I forgot about her other blonde partner last week.

It was the impact of their re-entry that I was comparing. Not the characters, since I don't really care for Lan Fan as a character. But she came in and did a job that not anyone else could have done.

Olivier awesomeness on this episode. "I'm not as soft as the hero of Ishbal". You go girl. Love seeing the scared faces on those useless old men.

Well Mustang's army spreading chaos was amusing, next episode looks to have even more development. Anyway Full Metal Alchemist always means good time spend.
BTW Pride found a way to notify "father". Al stop being an idiot and tale your head back. Why did you let it there as a toy.

The scene with the Briggs army hiding right before making their move.

"W.C" are the letters found on Izumi's slippers.

I was wondering what the significance of Pride tapping the helmet was, at first I thought he was gonna create a spark hitting the wood against metal to create light for his shadows, but oh noes he's contacting father..
