Full Metal Alchemist was the anime that started my addiction to anime.
I loved that it spanded over so many episodes and had its own unique little stories, even the fillers had a good reason to be there. It was like being a part of the FMA family. You knew about all the great main characters.

My only minor complaint would be that I wanted more back story about the humonculus, or the date in Ed's pocket watch. I sorta know what It means, but I dont want to go on assumptions. I wanted to know what it meant to Ed.

That being said, Full metal has a place in my heart.

When I read that it was being remade, ofcourse i was in support of it! Full metal alchemist is always welcome again and again.
I have no real problems with the remake, to me it just adds to the whole experience. It isnt better or worse than the "original" it just kepes the love alive!

But one thing i was really disappointed with was the animation in brotherhood.
The colors looked so artificial. Like they did the whole thing on Paint or something. There were no natural shades.

To me, the original was beautiful. The tones and colors were perfect.
Brotherhood kinda let me down in that respect.

On top of that, Im also bummed out about Alphonses voice actor change. The new voice is higher pitched and screechy.
The original was much more subtle in tone and really suited alphonse.

But those are my only complaints.

Had Brotherhood been made just like the original except with the change in story, It wouldve been fantastic to me.
