I have to say.. loved the way this episode ended.

Like after the bridge blows up, the music starting, and the gunman's grin, hoo hoo.


It felt a bit weird though, the explosion seemed really small, like a small explosion of fireworks or smoke grenade than an bridge-blowing explosion.. I was like, Bradley was finished... by that?! It should be more powerful than that. =(

lol as far as i remember all of what your talking about wasnt even in the manga >< wait.....the little eastern girl leaving wasnt skipped lol


*sigh* ok, apparantly the manga does the same abrupt jump, albeit with some more explaining around it. And not a big "some". But the eastern girl. She goes to central, for months. What takes place for that time is GONE. She isn't a main character but still.
Point is the jump they did in the story is rather crude and would have deserved a better explanation instead of leaving a strong feeeling of having missed something.


The manga has panels showing what everybody was doing during the time skip. The anime did similar thing: showing still pictures of everybody doing stuff in the ED. Except you skip the ED, there should be no problem getting the time skip.

Ahh man, such a good episode. I love tall!Ed... Maybe now I can cosplay him without being awkwardly tall. I know some people have complaints about Paku Romi's voice being too "young" for tall!Ed, but I still like it... Some adult men have voices that high, and I think her voice is sexy, so it doesn't bother me any.

Can't wait for the next episode! I'm downloading the tsunami-warning-free version right now for my archives.

And now, the most epic part of Fullmetal Alchemist gets animated: the grand finale. Needless to say, I am really, REALLY excited to see the entire Promised Day arc in Brotherhood.

And considering how quickly Brotherhood is catching up to the manga, they'll practically be releasing the final episode of Brotherhood mere weeks after the final manga chapter comes out.

Grumman is sure a funny person... ;))

Ed's incredible growt spurt... does it mean his theory ( don't remember the exact anime episode maybe 21? anyway it's around here ) was right? After all Al started having problems at the end of Briggs arc and soon after we begin to notice Ed's sudden growt while before it was so slow and costant you could notice only when comparing with the early chapters/episodes
...not that boys that age can't easily gain 10 cm in height in a very short time and we did have some timeskips after all

As always I love how the information exchange takes place especially around Mustang

and Grumman at the end with the ED music in background was great xD

So it's really that close to catching up with the manga? Somebody I know made it sound like just a few episodes ago that we were only about halfway through the manga, making it sound like we'd get at least 3 seasons, if not 4. They better not try and finish this without the manga or I'll be pissed. The whole point of Brotherhood was to follow the manga instead of making up stuff like in the original, even if Hiromu Arakawa (who is a "she" for those who keep saying "he") had some input.

Anyway, I thought the episode was great. Was a little disappointed that they skipped ahead, but if that's how it actually happened in the manga then oh well. I'm really liking the way Ed looks now. There are times when he looks a lot like Hohenheim. LOVE how it ended, too. I was like,"'oh yeah, she's gonna take control now and.... ooooohhhh crap!" This next episode is gonna rock!

Lol, how Winry threw them out and smacked Ed with a wrench. That must hurt. Ah man, Father... >.<

Basically, the ending should amount to a whole season.

Yeah, it's going to be pretty epic.

I can't believe that I've been watching this series for almost a year now. It really is coming to an end. Everyone's bigger now, prepared for the final battle. I'm getting a bit nostalgic. But it's too early for that. This was a good episode. And I'm looking forward to the action next episode.

Yea you guys noticed Ed growing :o no one said anything about it (in the anime) hes longer than winry now. They are leaving out a lot of battles from 1 though, which is actually kinda nice, cause I can replay 1 now.

The events are kinda confusing though but meh, I shouldn't worry about ''How did that person know that?'' ''Why did he know that'' ''How did these chars get there in a split sec? o.o''

nice ep.

I love how everyone is working together now. It's like everyone I met throughout the series are now gathering up to beat the shit out of the upper echelon of the military, wow so intense lol.

The beginning was funny aswell. I loved how Winry suddenly started changing her clothes and all of a sudden Edward was there staring at her, wow lol. Seriously though, Winry is a hot girl. Edward needs to tap her after he get his body back.

Anyways, did anyone notice that Ed seems to be taller in this episode? Well I don't mind that since it looks really betetr if he's taller. Don't change his height please!

Al is getting cooler and cooler as the time passes(he didn't have this much time in FMA). Grumman is really smart geezer as he played his cards quite well. Alphonso getting caught... what can I say, he really wasn't in much use at the moment, but now they can use him as hostage.

Loved the comedic scenes at the beginning. When everyone got into Winry's room... xD Anyway, the episode was pretty good, the promised day is arriving and both side's plan is being set in motion. I couldn't have enjoyed this any more. The greatest thing was that the plan for taking over Central would work either way. In other words, the practice could be a bait or not, depending on King Bradley's decision when faced with the info. In they end they just got rid of him (who's obviously not dead) and I think next episode ought to be great. Espcially after that post-ED scene. I'm with those losers, I never expected such an important figure to appear there.
