| I also would have decided to die instead of running away! |
| The dream sequence was awesome. I'm liking the Hawkeye girl, she's pretty cool. I also thought the part where Al's arm feel off to be rather comedic. |
| Poor Roy... he just has terrible timing/luck. Lol Oh and I can finally recognize Rie Kugimiya's voice (Alphonse). It took me forever, but when Alphonse was lecturing Ed, it was just sooo noticeable (vintage Rie Kugimiya)! Haha :D |
 |
| Great episode finally some more clear shots on Scar! Let's get back to Winry for the new automail! |
 |
| awesome episode!! the Liore scene is much more darker and brutal than the first season. Envy's voice seems to be change too :\ don't mind that new voice though :P Takayama, Minami. known as Conan!! it seems Homunculus goals are much different than the first season(drive anyone into creating the philosopher's stone to make them human) the battle between Ed and Al against Scar is awesome!!! Ed is much more scared here than ever. Riza with that side sweep with Roy is so classic :) and Scar is hell bent on destroying everyone this time around love the battle between Armstrong and Scar. it seems Scar destructive power has a blue lightning effect compared to the first season where a red lightning one was used. amazing episode!!! man im loving it so far, and it is leaps and bounds better than the first season(in terms on how the battles are told) im freaking addicted to Fullmetal Alchemist O___O |
| Very good! Scar was a hell lot more grave, ex. 0 talk compared to the Original. I like the Brotherhood interpretation of this scene more than the Original. Edward was less whiny and the fight was better. |

| Riza tripping up Roy ahaa ~ |
 |
| Armstrong is pretty badass :o |
 |
| Teleporting cars.....they sure do have advance technology in this universe. |
| Wow they already got to this part in ep 5. i wonder what stuff they have coming |
| I'm sensing the war against the Ishvalans is central to this story. The Scar guy sure is insanely powerful |

| Great episode. That dream was very creepy :o |
 |
| the spinning ed when alphonse punched him after he lost half his torso. so classic |
"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." |
| Al's "tear", at the beginning, when they're sitting in the rain... Oh my. |
| BROMANCE. End card is Riza-chan. Super kayoooot <3 She so purrtyyyy C: |
| damn those villagers killing each other... its more brutal! and also "Shut up! Don't drag an ordinary guy like me into you nonsensical mutants' all around freak shows!".. lol Hughes is the best! |
 |
| There were some good moments, but I am still not "feeling" the series yet, but whatever. Time to visit hometown, and blonde girlfriend back at home. :p |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Way better than the previous episodes. I liked it a lot! |
| Special all-around freakshow lol! The light-hearted ending definitely balanced that really creepy intro. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| First episode where I'm not comparing series. It was good! Every episode always keeps your attention. I really liked Al's post-fight freakout at Ed and Ed's sacrifice, where behind the yelling you could tell they really love each other |
| They made Scar feeling a hell of a lot scarier this time to me for some reason. Maybe it's his kill first, talk later method lol. I've always liked Armstrong :3 |
| tbh exterminating all of ishval was kind of dumb and cruel on their part |
| Lol when Mustang tried to use his flame. *snap* *fsssss* |
| Armstrong is awesome in whatever version he shows up in. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| some of the things I really like in this anime so far: -Ed's pretty long hair (god I just love long hair, and it's probably the first time I've seen that on a shounen protagonist) -the opening -the really weird muscle guy with a blonde mustache -Lust and Envy -the fact that Ed isn't invincible and has to be saved hopefully the list expands |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Roy is actually much more likable in this version, Armstrong is still the same great guy ^^ |
| on to the next |
 |
| The Ishval stuff is interesting, and that was a damn good fight scene. Going back to Ed and Al's childhood friend? Also, how the hell did Mustang and the military appear suddenly and silently? Haha |
| Armstrong saving the day half naked hahaha |
 |
| Again, there is a summary of the mega event than what we have seen in the FMA, but the story still works well and links the various events in a credible manner. Thing that leaps to the eye, is the humor that remains fairly consistent compared to the FMA. |
 |
| this is really awesome so far, i didn't expect it to have such a great pacing from the early beginnings. We get a bit of a backstory with the Ishtians or what they're called..That scar guy is particularly annoying.. 5/5 :) |

| This was one of my favorites parts of the 2003 version and it sure kicks ass here as well! Scar is such a badass character and the Elrics gave me feels on this one. I love it also how Riza saved Roy, she just protects him always, even if it means to disobey him and making a fool of him haha. This episode is just so good and the moment where I start to see how great this show will be. |
| I'm still reeling at episode 4, this episode did not make me feel any better. Back to hometown next episode. Finally a nice change of pace from all the sadness. |
 |
| When I see an episode with Armstrong, I know it's gonne be a good one! ;D Awesome fighting scene, classy scenes with Armstrong. Too bad Ed and Al were harmed, but at least they survived and the only things that got harmed were their metal parts. |
| armstrong and his half nakedness is one of the greatest things in this |
| So the state's dirty past has resurfaced. It seems they slaughtered Ishvalan people en masse to eliminate the uprising. Even though it does look like a last resort situation I think it's a very cruel and inhumane act to do such a thing. I wonder what was Führer's reasoning when giving that order. It's unusual for a show to make their main characters, the people you're supposed to root for, carry out such atrocities. I do really like the fact that the show is challenging the idealized notion of a hero. Things have started taking an interesting turn. 3.5/5 Solid episode. |
 |
| Armstrong is as delightful as ever! Lots of similarities to 2003 in episodes 2-5. I personally like the faster pacing. FMA manga/original anime had a good time gap of release, so it was probably assumed you looked into one or the other. |
 |
| Envy made their intro by posing as Father Cornello and triggering a religious commotion at Rush Town. Envy's ability is really dangerous, considering how he can shapeshift into just about anyone. It looks like Scar had lived through what was pretty much a state-sponsored genocide and that sucks. He wrecked the Elric brothers and almost finished Edward if it weren't for the help of the State Alchemists. Roy's pretty much out of action in the rain but Armstrong and Rize's fighting skills goes really well together. |
 |
| Pretty intense episode. I love how this series can shift from the emotional moments to the humourous ones so effortlessly. Since I've re-watched this I already how Scar turns out, but so far he has a one-track mind. But he thinks everything he does through and is obviously a formidable foe. &++ never change, Hughes, you're the best! lmao. Also props to Lust's seiyuu (Kikuko Inoue). Her sultry voice performance really does bring out the character |
| Really good developpement in this episode, I'm into the story I think now |
