Was Yoki gay? He looked like a homo-metrosexual.

Nah he wasn't gay - he was just a power hungry lunatic that was willing to suck up to become more greedy xD

Much better and was great fun. Edwards voice (on sub) is becoming more tolerable too. :D

I love how instead of Winry going crazy over clothes, she squeals over automail stuff. xD

Yeah, but most of the women are still written as the clueless types-including Winrey. Oh, tra la la I think I'll surprise the Elrich brothers by visiting them in a city where there's a serial killer attacking females...then I think I'll hop into the back of a strange delivery truck belonging to a sketchy woman with a she-male voice...The only female characters that have shown that they're not dim bulbs in anyway are: Winrey's grandma, Hawkeye, and Psiren (oops...that's the next episode).

love it :D

though there wasn't any much of a threat.

also at the end did it really skip to 3 years later??

that's an awful lot of time to skip, maybe to go past the fillers??

love Edward!! he's badass and get's the job done.

on to the next episode :D

No. He was a slimy weasel who was growing soft from living the easy life.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

as fast as Winry comes as fast as she goes again. that was a pretty smart solution to the problem they where having in the mines.

indeed but she is probably more expensive then one who love clothes lol.

That was a great bit of backstory. Will get to think back to these episodes as I'm watching future episodes in present time. Cool stuff. I like how he diverges from the normal State Alchemists. Every time a sentence begins with someone calling Elric short, I already get pumped to see his reaction haha

I agree! They make laugh every time! XD

And is it really now 3 years later picking up where we left off after the first episode?? I hope so! I want to see what happens with the whole Gluttony, Lust and Envy side of things!

Pretty fun for a filler episode. -- 4/5

Self-contained episode that has the advantage of carrying out the personal story of the protagonists and to describe the relationship between the military and the common people.Narratively it is hasty, but fails to explain exactly what he has to say, rather than good overall, now you start to get serious.

So THAT's the coal mining incident Loki was talking about in Brotherhood. That was hilarious lol. I guess we're back to present time now, with the ending of this episode looping back to the first episode.

That was a rather abrupt timeskip at the end, but the episode was pretty fun all the same. I figured out what Ed was doing with the gold (that it wasn't/wouldn't remain real) while he was offering to "sell" the ownership of the mine to the inn owner.

Man, every episode is written so well.
I don't remember this too much, but it's a good setup for their reputations.
It's crazy they started their quest at such a young age. It makes sense for there to be a time skip, all things considered.

I love how morally pure this man is. Praise Edward Elric. The way he tricked the Lt. into handing over the deed to the town was genius, perfectly executed. He really is intelligent, maybe on par with Midoriya. It seems as if Edward only gets stronger with each conquest. Al keeps him in check too always patching any flaws.
