Envy's death was just sad.. I didn't cry, but close to, my eyes got watery.. The good voice acting, the good dialogue, the good ost, that situation was just close to perfection, amazing stuff!

Loved the muscle showdown, Alex for the win! It's time for Van Hhh and "Father" or rather "Homunculus".

What I disliked about this episode was Riza's empty threat, I believe she won't shoot Roy even if he burns Envy into ashes, and even if she would, she will be delayed, as from my perspective, she wasn't mentally prepared. Roy's strong vengeance was out of nowhere in my opinion, there wasn't enough foreshadowing toward this, his hatred was way too powerful.

Seriously what a bunch of a**holes to put him in a situation like that, revenge leads to closure and ends that chapter in the book that is your life. If you just leave it like that, it will be open for the rest of your life.
Also enough of the ishbal reminiscing crybabies, we are the sum of our actions and only the weak regret them, mourning and regretting servers no purpose but self loathing.

Oh and did anyone else notice the major drop in art quality when it switched over to the Armstrong fight?
All of a sudden there was a significant lack of details, which was very visible when you compared it to the excellent quality of the Mustang chapter.


I felt the same. I thought it was dumb he couldn't burn Envy to death. Why was it ok to burn Lust to death but not Envy?? Made no sense. I was kind of out of the episode after that and the whole Envy death...I didn't really care...Envy has like no redeeming qualities so who cares how he dies , but the Armstrong stuff was cool.

I wasn't moved emotionally at all by Envy's death. Thought the whole confrontation was pretty corny ~_~. I hate it when they go into those typical shounen punchlines D:

Highlight of the episode: Alex's sparkling Falcon punch
Also it feels like I'm watching Resident Evil with all those immortal zombies o_o

I laughed so hard when the superhero-like music kicked in while Alex was pummeling Sloth. It was so fitting.

Considering the atrocities Envy has committed, I felt nothing even when "it" cried.

I was expecting Envy to possibly be Roy, but I wasn't expecting Riza to bait him with false info. Combined with the "burn my back" thing, I suddenly really like her.

I don't feel sorry for him, but I teared up when Envy suicided. The whole thing was pathetic and sad.

Great great episode.
And yes I admit it I felt sorry when envy died...it was cool he went for it himself.
And every time they remind me of what the did in Ishbal I want to punch their faces. I mean Riza and Mustang how could you? Well yes he was trying to save his subordinates...but still it angers me.
None the less great scene between him and Riza and lol I did not expect that actually Riza was tricking Roy/envy...I totally had thought it was Riza/envy and Mustang was real.
Anyways still some to go...and it feels sad that there are only a few episodes left.

Envy was pitiful when he was screaming like a fool haha. That look on all their faces.
Suddenly Sloth stopped moving and became a punching bag.. pffft.

This episode is so cool, it has to be one of my favourite episodes of FMA Brotherhood. Roy Mustang is epic. The emotion and power between the fight was awesome too. I admit, I felt sorry when Envy died, it was cool he went for it himself. I was waiting for this fight to come and it did towards the last 10 episodes. I already finished this series which I really love so I just wanted to comment here :)

Sorry can't agree with you... I hate Envy because of Hughes! In my opinion Envy should burn in Mustangs fire a little bit longer...

Envy's death was... surprisingly emotional. Really well done. I couldn't help but laugh at the voice here or there, but it actually worked really well for that character, how after all that, he was the jealous and pathetic ones, after constantly claiming that is was humans who were like that. I liked the twist and play on his name, that he was actually envious of humans the whole time. Great OST in that scene too. Mustang and Hawkeye's conversation was great too, as was Armstrong taking down Sloth again. Awesome episode! Can't believe there's only 10 left.

It seems that before long the waiting time a lot of episodes is about to end and start the final act of this story, the end of Envy was granted, but in the end it is also a bit sad to see him die a little forced to that happens before this event, not bad flashback regarding Riza and Mustang, the final with that cliffhanger, is not bad.

Is there something wrong with me if instead of having pity for Envy I thought "finally, this jerk is gone"? Mustang's rage is pretty understandable if you ask me.

Love the way they went about Envy's death,really felt for him compared to the other homunculus that died where I didn't really care/it didn't affect me.

He was definitely the best homunculus character wise.

I didnt cry, but i was close to.

Whats up guys? Am I the only one who thinks Envys dead is exaggerated?

What's wrong to kill a monster? Okay, maybe it is better than simply to burn him. But sadest moment of this series? No! ;)

Envy's final moments were portrayed so well that I had tears in my eyes; I couldn't stand him, but I still had a smidgen of empathy despite all the horrid things he did and the way the scene was executed was done so well. It was nice to finally see the, well...envious side of him, since the other homunculus quite obviously relate to their sins right off the bat. What got me was the pity he elicited from the other characters, and how that may have been the worse punishment for someone like Envy because that's something he could never have nor understand.

You know something's well written when you cry over the death of a character you hate...that takes some form of mastery!

Ending had me a little hyped too with Father and Hohenheim's not so sweet reunion after god knows how many centuries.

Agree with everyone who says Roy should have been allowed to kill Envy I felt no pity for that character and was practically yelling at my TV the entire time they were trying to talk Roy out of it Roy deserved to kill Envy and to pause to have a heart to heart to save the life of a non human enemy who they need to get rid of anyway was a big issue to me.

I've had about enough of this shit. Why are the blonde characters in this show so retarded? Can they not see the bigger picture? Envy is dangerous and cunning so every second they waste moralfagging each other could lead to disaster. Kill the fucker already for fuck's sake.

Anyway, this show has its moments but Ed's pretty much the worst shonen protagonist ever. I'm going to go ahead and spoil myself at the wikia and hope FMA03 is better.
This community is terrible.
