| FMA is the first season of FMAB but with more depth and explanation. I too watched FMA before FMAB, and while watching Brotherhood, the first season honestly felt like all of FMA but as a blur, its like they took the most important scenes from FMA and shoved in into 12 episodes, but the rest of the show is original content and some of the best content in anime at that. Highly recommend watching the first season anyways, dont try and miss out on an episode. |
| I always say watch fma 1st then fmab 2nd since fmab does the starting arcs in a rushed fashion. It is clearly made for those who watched the of 2003 version. |

| “But considering fmab is such highly rated” You’ve got the wrong idea, fmab isn’t so highly rated because it’s one of the best shows or anything like that. People just give it a 10 because they have so much nostalgia connected to it. |
| I'm re watching fmab after years. I was a much bigger fan of 03 growing up and have seen it something like 5 times. fmab goes a completely different direction, and both are very good. fma keeps a much more solemn tone but fmab has some unforgettable moments that are just amazing. if you liked og fma you'll adore it. |

People just give it a 10 because they have so much nostalgia connected to it. just my opinion, but it holds up. ik people do anything to keep it #1 on mal but it DESERVES high ratings. it's a fucking phenomenal show. so I don't think it's the wrong idea at all. |

| Yeah, I would say that is not "worth" but a necessity, FMAB is the one everyone should watch first since is the true story, I watched FMA also, but the story in the FMAB was better to me |
"๐ผ ๐๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ค๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ ๐ข๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ก๐๐๐ โ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐กโ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐..." |
| well, FMAB is the actual original story |
| Yes. Personally I like both versions, and I think both are worth watching. To me, there are scenes and plots the first anime does better, I like the music better too. The issue (and I'd say maybe the ONLY issue I had) with FMAB is that the first part feels somewhat rushed because they seemed to want to be over with what's already been animated for FMA, sadly they skipped some important bits that could confuse new watchers, but after that it finds its own pace and becomes more consistent. Anyway: absolutely worth it, they did a good job adapting the manga and the story is more consistent overall. Please do watch if you liked the first series, it's definitely a good one! There's a reason why it's highly rated. |

| Comparing them doesn't make much sense, but comparing their early part does no favour to the second series. That one was clearly made with the assumption that it's audience had already seen the first series and so, told the beginning of its story very poorly (probably to spare episodes for the audience before reaching the part that " mattered", and to spare money?). As for the tone you dislike, unlike the comparatively less light/goofy tone of the 2004 show, I won't try to convince you otherwise since you're right. This will stay like that until the end, while getting a larger and bigger adventure. The original is a "young boys adventure manga" after all.

People just give it a 10 because they have so much nostalgia connected to it. Where was the nostalgia coming from when it was getting high marks while airing or not long after? @xXCaptainJXx So, the audience watching the show in 2007 was blinded by nostalgia stemmed from a show they watched in 2004-5? (I remember very well how the trend during "Brotherhood"was to spit continuously on the prior series, so beloved by fansub audiences a handful of years before.) |
