| Finally this show gives me feeling close to the way I felt while watching FMA. It's not the same, but it's close. So does the former FMA Wrath has something to do with the present Al's body? He resembles Wrath in some way (think) |

So does the former FMA Wrath has something to do with the present Al's body? He resembles Wrath in some way (think) The Wrath from the first anime has absolutely nothing to do with this series at all. In fact nothing from the first anime has anything to do with this series. It's best to forget anything about the first series when watching this anime and regard it as a completely different series. |
| My reaction after watching this episode: I LOVE FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST BROTHERHOOD. SRSLY. The tears I shed from this episode was DIFFERENT from the tears I shed from the other anime. :'( Ed loves Al. That pretty sums up the ending. I remembered my brother while watching this. T___T |
| I swear I do the pointing finger thing every time I close a door. Honestly, I think the last part was one of the greatest moments in anime for me. The way it transitioned into the ED with the instrumental gradually fading in and then finally the " Let it all out " and everything and everything and everything and everything AND EVERYTHING-- *takes a deep breath* I go back and rewatch that moment from time to time.. and every time I get goosebumps! |
| I love how they are able to use the ED in all these different ways to add to a scene, this and previously when Ed was comforting Winry at the end of another episode. Powerful scene. Also, the director of this series really knows how to keep the suspense going. Great series. |

"Let it all out" is like the perfect song that fits the current mood of the series. Its just perfect. I got goosebumps when i watched that last scene. I have seen that scene over and over and it is by far one of my favorite moments in every damn anime series ive seen. If i made a favorite anime moment blog. this one would be up their in the top 10. and can you imagine watching that with out reading the manga. Its like 10 times better. |

I would feel guilty and would do everything and anything for her too. Everything about their fraternity makes me tear up a bit lol Crydasia said: wow , this is the most impressive adventure/shounen anime ive watched so far , thought it was overrated but i completely agree with its score/rating it has. I'm so happy to read this. I'm glad you're enjoying it. Ok, going back to rewatching one of my favourites animes of the whole world ♥ |
 |
| Wow that ending, we see grow up alphonse! Damn really great episode I wonder what al in the current world will find behind those doors and if ed's trick really worked! |
 |
| wow they reveal soo much in this episode!!!!! i knew the rubble in the ground was part of the statue from XerXes ruins. so this father used the XerXes town as a sacrifice to create a philosohper's stone. and are now using the same method to create more in Central City. poor King Bradley. he basically tried to survive hell to be honest. extensive training, education as well as determination. he even survived for being take over by the Philosopher's stone which is from XerXes ruin. so that's how he gotten the name Wrath. so basically Ed is trying to Human Transmutation from scratch instead of something. so that's how he was able to open the gate. guess the XerXes people are grateful that finally their souls will be released after all this time. yeah the pose where Ed is using alchemy kinda look like your praying to a God. so finally Ed's sees Al's body after all these years!!! and wow he does look malnourished. guess that's his timer?? if he's body in the gate dies, he dies huh?? so only Al himself can get his body huh?? guess they lost something but didn't gain anything other than taking a peak for the truth, so does this mean Ed now's Human Transmutation(at least being able to transfer himself to another world) ed will definitely return Al someday!!!! can't wait for the next episode!! |
| Epic battle begins...Ed and Lin vs Envy(ugliest beast form) Envy's demon form kinda reminds me the titans from Shingeki no Kyojin. May's legendary warrior skills..woow. The eye whih is at the center of the gate of truth looks like Rinnegan... Ed to Al's body at the gate of truth:Alphonse!!! I'll come back and get you back!!! Wait for me!! TRUE EPİC... |
| Woah, dang, that was amazing. It was already really good, and then that ending. . . =o |
 |
| Daaww that ending was so cute :3 |

| That took me completely bu surprise at the end. Never expected to see Alphonse like that. I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that Father is actually Hohenheim's father and the Elric's grandparent. |

| omg als body :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this is a really good episode!!! ed is so badass <3 |
| teaming up with homunculi |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| THISSSSSSS!!!!!! THIS IS A GREAT EPISODE. Oh gawd, when Edward forced that gate to open again just to tell Al's body that he'll be back. THEM FEELS, MANNNNN <3 |
| I started watching FMA and got about 20 episodes in wondering what all the fuss was about, I nearly dropped this anime because it was so boring...and mediocre, but now that I have gotten to the end of this episode I can say that I will definitely finish the show to see more shit like that, the reason I watch anime is for moments like the ending, and this show was not delivering it, but I finally got a piece of something good. |
 |
| fuck! I can now see why this shit is better than FMA 2003... keep it up! |
 |
| Wow, when Ed punched open the gate and tell Al that he will be back for him, that was good! I think Scar is slowly becoming my FMAB favorite character, he is just so awesome. |

| lol looks like Al's body is alive and well though a little emaciated XD. Well at least there is hope now! |
| I felt my jaw slightly drop when Ed punched the door open. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| It was fucking awesome when he broke back through the door. That will probably be the series' iconic moment. Also I love how Envy got grosser with the dripping human tongue |

| Holy shittttttttttt. This series is intense. Bye 8/10 Hi 9/10 |
| Wtf Ed was so BA in this episode. Punching the door open. |
 |
| And the big moment! Fantastic. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| Ed you're such a man... *clap clap* |
| Holy crap that was a great ep! :D |
| holy shit epic ending |
 |
| Wow, I fucking love the OST song that plays when Ed punches through the door for a second to tell Al he's coming back for him. Great scene. The in the belly stuff was interesting |
| That final scene has become one of my favorite things in the world. It was just so… powerful. Al’s emaciated body, Ed running desperately hoping to bring it back only to be dragged towards the Gate of Truth. So close, yet so far. Hope and despair, side by side. But then, LET IT OUT faded in—he punched his way through the door, telling Alphonse he’d be back. “Just you wait!” And I was close to being brought to tears. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that moment. |
I think, then procrastinate. Therefore, I am. |
| That moment when Ed sees Al is so good, especially when the doors are close and he burst it open and says he will come to get him and says to wait for him! Amazing! |
 |
| Not bad this episode, the final then it was so touching, I felt a mixture of sadness and a feeling of grandeur, hard to describe in words. Narratively the series is growing more and more, overjoyed! Plot increasingly compelling, drawings and animations good, excellent soundtrack. |
 |
| Great episode. Interesting so see Bradleys past and how he became a homunculus. Atm Mustang is absolute helpless. At first when Ed came through the door I thought it was his body at the other door. But then this extremely thin body compared with this long hair, wow that was unexpected. I loved the last scene when Ed opnend the door again with his expression in his eyes, soooo fucking good. <3 Next episode something of the past of Hohenheim? Looks interesting. |
 |
| So there's finally going to be some progress? It's finally going to turn great? |
If you're not at least slightly amused by now, you'll probably hate the last 12 episode slog to the ending.If you get that far. |
 |
| Wow that ending was so powerful! I'm still crying, it really made me feel very emotional :'( |
 |
| This episode ;_; we finally saw Al's body |
| Perfect ED for an Epic Ending WTF |
 |
| Ohohohoho, hi Al, he is so skinny... |
 |
| That last scene sent chills down my spine |
 |
| Damn the ending song was made for this episode loved it so much damn how can this be so amazing. |
| I CAN NOT BELIEVE that I didn't watch this series until now. I watched the 2003 version of Fullmetal Alchemist and at the time I thought it was simply the first season with Brotherhood as a sequel. So when I did watch Brotherhood right after finishing it and realized I was still watching basically the same thing except with better(-ish) animation, I dropped it without getting to the part where things were different from the 2003 version. I really regret it now... and I'm sooooo glad I picked this up again out of boredom (and for craving a shounen anime to watch). I'm so hooked and I love the ending scene. Al is so skinny.. I got so sad just looking at him!! T_T |
