For some reason, I feel that the Homonculis from the 2003 version were better. They had more personality, more role than being only expendable servants to the main bad guy and they are even more memorable for me.

Yes, Father was replaced by Dante, who was more shallow than Father, but the Homonculis in Brotherhood are just awfully bad-written - excep Greed and maybe, maybe Pride.

qft

Brotherhood's Saturday morning cartoon villains just don't stack up against 2003's nuanced, multidimensional and humanised ones.

Really? These days most seem to prefer Brotherhood and bash the 2003 anime (back when the latter came out it was one of the best received anime btw).

But yeah the 2003 version is way better

Well once again I have to really check it out, but in terms of the "themes" it handles itself more compared to the Brotherhood version. And this is also from what I've heard from the same people that also liked Brotherhood btw.

I don't disagree the homunculi in the original were great for anime only and the way they were created was wayyyyyy better but we all can agree brotherhoods greed and Bradly were so much better
