well greed was being very polite in this episode. mind the kidnapping but he only wanted the technique for transmuting a soul into an object.
oh well. guess a homunculus' infamy stretches to him as well.

Greed looks to be much cooler than the other homunculus(to now I hate Gluttony from the first moment I saw him, I hate Wrath because of his attitude, Lust is just friggin' bitch who does not deserve better fate than them, Sloth... is Sloth, and I hate Envy the most - he killed my favorite character, after all). This episode was not as interesting as some other episodes, but still it's good enough.

What I don't understand is why doesn't Ed try to kill Tucker on sight every time he sees him... it's really unbelievable how he'll just sit and converse with him.

men this tucker keep getting on my nerve he always shows up at bad things i really hope he has a major change of attitude or gets killed cause he is freaking annoying.


beside that i think Greed is the strongest by far but his weakness is probably big to this skull thing they talked about seemed to be in this bag that's why he changed back so it seems he has a really big weakness to.

Yeah, don't get why Greed wants a body like Al's though tbh.

Yeah, the "who are you?" and "I'm pissed" bits we're funny!

Greed: "I'm sorry, who the hell are you?"
Izumi: "PISSED OFF"
x,D

Ugh the military got in the way of Ed saving Al. I wish they'd get out of the way and stop getting involved at times like this.

On another note, I wonder how many military uniforms Armstrong goes through. They all get ripped off of him by his muscles...xD

I wonder why Izumi suspected that Dante had something to do with what happened...

Greed looked way cool! Izumi was pretty awesome, but dang that coughing up blood stuff sure is inconvenient, isn't it? I did like how she referred to Al and Ed as her kids though. <3

The military seems to be working against Ed more often than not. Granted, most of it before was because of Sloth and Envy, but still. I sure wish Mustang would make himself useful and take over things, but he appears to be too busy making another mistake like Ishbal (unless he has some trick up his sleeve).

I don't really understand why Greed wants to be like Al. It seems to me he's at least as immortal as Al is, and Al's "weak spot" seems to be a lot more vulnerable that Greed's, whatever that is. Plus, all those women he wants won't be much use if he's in a hollow suit of armor with no sense of touch lol.

Episode a little less exciting but I can not say it was boring. The narrrazione still provided a good time and there was a lot of action. Interesting Greed and his henchmen, I'm curious to know what links Greed in the skull.

I wonder what this Archer guy is up to. He's a real dick, and kinda implied that he knew a lot about the homunculi, and maybe even worked with them before? Either way I really hope Scar does the same thing to him as he did to Basque Grand.

A lot of cool action in this episode.

Dante was actually pretty shifty in this episode.

Greed ... despite being a bad guy seemed to be very easy going with the brothers.
Crimson Alchemist going back to the military was hinted but it seems he's decided now ^^

I'm guessing it's because he doesn't have the guts to kill, as mentioned in this episode.

Oh yeah, Tucker is still alive (lame), I forgot.

Golly, Greed's ultimate shield form looks amazing in this series too!

I'm really liking FMA so far but it's unnerving how OP homunculi are, and there are freaking seven of them, not to mention a lot of suspicious people in the army and scar too (who maybe will help elric brothers but who knows the guy is crazy), and not only are they more powerful they control everyone from the shadows since episode 1.

Good guys winning in this just seems impossible. I wish I could see every single one of homunculi get their asses kicked but there is no one in this series that could do that right now. Anyway excellent build up, let's finish this soon.

This episode was the weakest since Rush Valley. This whole kidnapping Al business gets old quick. Greed seems chill but this archer dude ruins it for me. One interesting bit was that Greed mentioned eternal life. So does that mean that homunculi age normally and die at some point?

Totally agree. Greed even mentioned that he wanted to visit an old acquaintance and stopped attacking Ed when Dante watched him. There's something weird about this supposedly helpless old lady...

2022 rewatch
this was an.. okay episode. it's mostly just action and that's not usually enough for me to like something. also damn.. is greed this uninteresting in the 03 version? he is significantly better and more complex as a character in mangahood. maybe i'll like greed a little more here later on but i'm not sure. i don't really remember what happened to greed in 03 very well.

I'm looking for a comment who have the same thoughts but couldn't find one 😭 but this episode pissed the hell out of me.. like seriously Edward should atleast listen to someone and not just start anything or fight anyone who he obviously cannot win, he still lacks power (both alchemy and military), and the military pisses me more like troubles keeps piling up and they still haven't solved anything at all but instead keep adding more. We can see how relevant Hughes character is but then that happened and now everything is just in chaos. I just hoped Edward could have just some power so that the military wouldn't just drag him of anywhere, so much for being a dog in the military gosh
