| That ending was so Badass, with alphonse wallking with that theme. Despicte the other opening beeing better to me, this one was pretty good too. |
 |
| Rule #202 of FMA: Don't piss off Alphonse. |
 |
| Didn't like the opening last one was better |
 |
| Pride AND Envy are back? Yikes. Gonna be lots of battling in these episodes. Very good one overall though, I loved seeing Al come out of the dust cloud at the end. Those mannequins are so creepy. I like the new OP and ED, though my favorites are still Hologram and Let It All Out. Can't wait to see Al take on Pride/Kimblee, Ed and co take on the mannequins, and Armstrong and Olivier take on Sloth! |
| I love the new OP, and that Ed x Win moment in the end is so cute! Those mannequins soldiers are creepy. And Envy got his body back, poor May. Kimblee saved Pride, hell... Sloth vs. Mira! OMG, so awesome! Alex showed up to help hahaha, I love this family! |
 |
| This episode had some of the stupidest moments I've seen in a while. It was perfectly alright for Al not to recognize the morse code. How could he have? How could Kimblee hear it miles away for that matter? But bringing Envy into battle in a glass jar instead of just stowing him somewhere or fleeing as planned: what the fuck were you thinking? That is the dumbest move I've seen in a long time. Okay, maybe they'll turn it around so that it helps them somehow, but really: stupid. Then Al hacks off part of his legs and that was incredibly stupid as well although it worked for a second. He just got lucky that they had a stone. |
| Episode that, despite everything, can entertain well, although certain situations were quite obvious in their evolution, not bad to enter the field of Armstrong, he always fun. Too bad the quality of the drawings is a bit lowered, one thing I was amazed by this episode are the new opening and ending, I did not expect. |
 |
| I'm probably in the minority since I prefer the new OP and ED to the last ones...sure I admit that the OP doesn't really catch the action packed, climatic final "arc" music and animation wise...but there's more to FMAB than that anyway and what it does do is catch the emotion and underlying themes of the series perfectly. So I adore it! I actually cried whilst watching the ED because of poor Hohenheim...the lyrics fit his journey so well, because the story really is about him just as much as it is about his sons. :/ Also a wonderful episode and I cannot believe Al got a Philosopher's stone at the end there!! |

| Nice to see that General Mustache's time to shine has come And with his badass sister too! |
 |
| This anime op and ed are all amazing, great episode loved the ending but I thought he can use it to get his original body back. |
| Welcome back Envy. Alphonse is about to go badass mode ... wonder if he'll actually have enough power to beat both of them though. |
 |
| I loved the new OP, but I'm shipping trash so anything Edward x Winry is a plus. Alphonse was looking so boss at the ending shot. He is about to fuck up Pride and Kimball? So awesome. |
 |
| most of you probably won't agree with me but............boring as always:( |
| Gnyo ho! |
| i love how selfless they are, of course most would say they should be more brutal and let people die when they're given the okay but i love the passion and spirit they got to let everyone get through it |
| New OP and ED are average, I liked the previous ones way more to be honest. Mannequin Soldiers seem to attack everything that is alive or breathing, lol. Damn, so Envy is back and he seems more powerful than ever. Unlike many people, I don't like him and he's definitely not my favorite homonculus. About homunculuses, I was right - Pride was not fooling around, but used a code to bring on some help. Olivier against Sloth, well that's gonna be epic. :D |

| OP: -Really demonstrate the last battle and eps of this anime. -Contains spoilers of who's understanding those are spoilers+really short spoilers, every time I'm watching it I'm laughing that most of the op isn't really a spoiler but the spoilers are short, + a really bold spoiler that about less than a second and stuff, really make me laugh XD. -Overall nice op. ED: -Nice music and although that animation unlike the previous one is less moving, like the op it's really fitting the mood of the arc, or what I called it "ending music". EP: -When Ed said "before the huge boss there's those" I just laughed saying "the finall stage before the boss" XD -The battle between Olivier-Sloth and the appearance of Armstrong really represents this shounen anime unlike other shounen DBZ and stuff that in the last minutes the chara is like "power up" and usually shounen things, in FMA when the limit of the fighting style of the chara is actually reached to it's limited he's actually be replaced to another one to be tasted if he can fight him with his fighting style or not and not just "just kidding I have more than what u think I have" powerups things. - I don't really believe that just now Al thinks about "what the lives in the stone want to" how he didn't come to this until now? -Ed thinking about those zombies they are souls.. pathetic how much naive they can be? and I actually was surprised that even Scar with his destroying alchemy didn't just killed those zombies right away, I mean, how much can be living that things? -Overall good and great ep. |
| Those Philosopher's Zombies are becoming a pain in the ass for both sides but it's good that the characters that actually matter are able to fight them back. The fact that they're fueled by Philosopher's Stones means that they're prime fuel for a certain Homunculus and with that, Envy's back. Kimblee picked up Pride's covert message and broke him out of there. They were cornered but it's great thay Heingel hanged onto the stone so Alphonse can use it. |
 |
| I don't really like new OP and ED songs to be honest, anyway this episode was outstanding, so much awesome fights |
 |
| such a tense episode! loved it! NEW INTRO AND OUTRO ALERT i really liked the previous intro but this is a nice change of pace and really shows the breadth of characters THE HUMANOIDS REALLY JUST UP AND ATE THOSE DUDES THAT'S TERRIFYING nobody will be able to control them, they are just vessels for the pained and starving souls that were trapped in the stones (my theory at least) and now they are after ed and the Squad dear oh dear (also is it just me or did ed's animation change? his face looked different to me when they fought the humanoids) ENVY IS BAAAAACK! oh may what have you dragged yourself into! but her fighting the humanoids was cool, she has moves olivier the resident badass what a legend, wish her fight scene vs sloth was longer but now it is an armstrong teamup against sloth the scene with al and heinkel was so touching, i really liked it. al you are such an innocent little child and i love you for it, but this moment right here was some huge growth! can't wait to see him kick major butt |
| New OP and ED are awesome! The immortal legion has been set loose, and things look like something out of a Resident Evil game! It seems like their only attack is biting, but goodness these dummies bite down hard. Ed and the gang take them on to get to Father. If Scar can't kill them with deconstruction... things look pretty grim. Hopefully they don't go to the outside world that'd be terrible! Speaking of the immortal dummies, that whole Envy consumption was eerily eye-catching. Envy's my favourite homunculus so it's nice to see them back in their preferred form. Golly, Olivier is as fine as she is bad ass and competent. She's on Sloth's hit list, but she's obviously not going to go down so easily. Just when things look bad, her brother Alex shows up! Mayne, I'm always laughing and smiling when he's on screen, 4 real. So Pride wasn't just playing with Al's head. He was sending a signal out. And Kimblee shows up in response. Damn, Heinkel gets caught in the blast and is beaten up badly. Mayne, I really love Al (and Ed)'s selflessness. Even when he's in a shitty situation, he still thinks and puts others before himself. That type of stuff always gets to me. It's what makes those two (and other anime and fictional characters) so damn awesome. Huh, I porgot Heinkel had a philosopher's stone and after some talk, Al takes it! He's ready to rumble now! Kick their asses, Al! |
| Uhm, didn't like any of the songs. Just when I think they are getting better (op 3) they just step down to square one. Mixed feelins: as if Envy hadn't been annoying enough, it is back, everything according to its plans. The girl is a kid so I guess it fits that she could be manipulated. Same with Alphonse and cutting his legs off, ugh... idk. Armstrong bro is back; he's cool. |

| The new OP was really great. 2nd favorite opening of the series for me, fits the atmosphere of war, destruction, loss and bloodshed really nicely. ED was nice to listen to as well, and contrasted the tone of the OP nicely. Showing both dark cloudy rainfall with sorrow for the OP, and a 'Ray of Light' and hope for the ED. The episode itself was again, slow but really nicely done. Envy's back to the Envy human form after consuming a ton of mannequin humans due to a botch from Mei. Alphonse sacrificed his armor legs to get away from Pride (who got out due to the morse code signals he gave out by hitting Al's helmet constantly) and Kimblee. He also then consumed the stone that Heinkel had stored in his pocket to fix the legs and fight, along with the many souls in that stone who want to fight too and not be consumed/transformed in vain. Olivier and Alex fight together too against Sloth. Tons of things happening everywhere in this chaotic battlefield, the build towards this war really helped this battle turn out great so far. |
| Best OP of the show. I wonder why Alphonse didn't go crazy with someone doing noise for several hours straight. I can understand him not to recognize the Morse Code but c'mon. Also, how convenient...Heinkel recognizes the Morse code just in that moment -why wasn't it earlier?- and then Kimblee attacks. Disappointed with the whole May/Envy stuff, it was so obvious Envy was going to fuse with those creatures when Ed flasback showed up before, that whole situation is stupid to begin. |

| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| starts off with a cliche zombie doctor scene. Where the hell do these homunculi even come from? Who made them? Why are they just showing up now? Another subplot equally as retarded as Fullmetal Archer's raid from 2003 just to stir up more chaos in the military for more one sided fight scenes. Al's fine with using up people after getting slammed on the head for three hours, ig that's all it took to get him to change when Kimblee gets dragged back into the story |

| what's wrong with the studio? why would they make the OP visuals like that? morons. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| I still like the 1st intro best tbh- |
| May Chang may have inadvertently caused Envy's revival, but that scene with her fending off the mannequin dummies was smooth In fact, this entire episode seemed extra polished in terms of art and animation -- Edward especially looked more.. anime |
| Owwww, new opening and Ed and Winry at the end~ :3 I was seriously shocked by the scene in the first minutes. But whoa, this episode. Ed and the others fighting the artificial soldiers. Envy returns to his human form! Olivier vs Sloth. And the most surprising thing was Al finally using the Philosopher's Stone... yet to be seen is Hohenheim... I'm excited and scared at the same time |
