THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I was disappointed that TBS did not choose a very elegant method to place the important Tsunami warning into their program:


The episode itself was quite good, I look forward to the very long day that will follow.

Haven't seen it yet but nnnngh. That's going to be annoying to watch it like that. Blah. Still, that was important for those people cause of the earthquake so I won't complain anymore.

Seen some screenshots too. Damn they made those guys seem a lot older in this episode. 0-0 Not a bad thing though. Almost time for some of my favorite moments in the manga too.

Winry fanservice(sort of). Ed's growth spurt. Al blacking out. Return of Gluttony. Al abducted. Mustang message to Olivia. Bradley ambush. Father and Sloth in Central. Too many happenings. We're finally going to the climax of the story. I remember this part is at chapter 84 or something. The anime may catch up to the manga.

Next ep, Pride, Gluttony and Al(?), vs Ed and Greedling.

Ummm, the tsunami warning WAS a fail. The tsunami was only a few centimeters.

But it's better to be safe than sorry, even if some Anime fans would rather have thousands of people potentially drown than their precious illegally-uploaded Anime having a map on it.

I did not call the warning itself as a fail, but the way they put it. I could have imagined a lot more methods the bring the same information without placing a map in the centre of the screen for the whole time. I edited my post so no one should feel offended.
I did not care too much, since it won't appear on the BD anyway.

After a while i didn't notice the tsunami warning anymore, so it wasn't that distracting.

Also i guess most Anime fans would rather have their precious Anime with a map on it than their precious Anime broadcast being canceled for a full tsunami warning broadcast.

Other than that, sound episode.

Hoory's a firstfag now, so it's okay for him to act like a loser.

It's been such a long time, but now there's a lot of things I've noticed... considering the time.

Thankfully, it was the same for me.

Anyway, another nice episode. I noticed that Ed has grown a lot when he was standing next to Winry.
I doubt Wrath/Bradley was even hurt in that explosion. It's awesome to see everyone preparing for "the promised day" and I can't wait to see what's going to happen next.

This episode actually ended where I thought it would, nice. I really liked the music played during the 'intruder' scene and Grumman's little evil laugh. He's great lol

Can't wait for the many things in the next episode <3

Good episode. I, too, didn't notice the warning halfway in. I love how they play the ED before actually going to the ED...love that song. Can't wait for next week.

And guys, don't complain about the warning. You do realize this is just a cartoon while the warning was to help save lives, right? -_-

Does anyone know if a RAW that doesn't have the tsunami warning will be available? The one used for this episode sort of affects its storing. (I will be muxing Eclipse's subs btw).

Yeah Ed does look like he's grown a bit, at least next to Winry. Their time together was far to short, but the reunion was pretty funny. The final post-ED scene was eye-opening to say the least. Olivier's eyes said it all. Preview looks great. Can't wait.

Yes!! Far too short D:

aH! I'm so excited to find out what's going to happen!!!

Also, I was able to find a subbed version on irc that doesn't have the map on it. The quality wasn't so wonderful, but it was just fine.

i watched it without tsunami warning, so all cool.
is bradley really dead? i'm sure he's not...

this episode was 3/5 for me. i was kind of lost at the beginning of the episode, and too many things happened after that.
anyways, next episode's gonna have lots of action :p

They got a really nice firm shape too (^.^)

Awesome entrance of Father at the end, with his meat wall body guard =P
I do wonder though, just how the hell did Sloth managed to sneak into the room and place himself right behind Olivier without alerting anyone^^
His not exactly small nor do I think he even got the ability to sneak considering his weight =P

Waaaaah!!!! AL!!! D: I'm sure he'll be fine, but still! D:

LOL!!! That was a really funny WinryxEd moment ^_^ Their faces = priceless :)

They said that it skipped to Spring but...what month or season was it before the time skip? How long did they skip?

So this show must be approaching it's end? D: It has been such a great anime, if it doesn't have a ridiculously happy ening I may be forced to kill myself.

I thought that the tsunami warning was great! Very effective :)

5/5 :) ♥

The most devastating Tsunami ever to hit Japan came from the aftershock of a Chile earthquake too, i think 1934? I guess no one's taking any chances, there's too many natural disasters this few years to be safe.

Anime is too fast for the manga. :( But it does make teh anime really exciting to watch, so...

Selim looks creepy. That jii san looks very funny.

I like the way they are starting to cooperate each other, and see how the information goes from one person to other with creative ways.
I hope I can do that to help me some stuff. XD

Cue massive squee. (Too bad the tsunami warning was kind of in the way the whole time, but yeah, let's get our priorities straight xp)
Oh my God, it's already almost the Promised Day and the manga has some chapters left to end...I hope they just stop broadcasting and let the manga catch up instead of making up an alternate ending...and then maybe OVAs or something?
Well, whatever, I saw Greedling (and heard Nakamura's sexy voice; I swear, this guy is my new favourite right after Ishida) and that's always good.
Winry/Ed reunion was so sweet. And so funny when she threw everyone out of her room xD
Can't wait to see the next episode's fight!

Uwaa. Now it is only action.

I wonder if the manga ends with the Anime. In the end, only one chapter per month comes out. Anime is every week.
