Fullmetal Alchemist and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood differ in story, character, and art style. Comparing one to the other is hard and time consuming. So to put in simple terms FMA, the anime made before FMAB was as good as its successor but not better. FMA's plot changes halfway into the anime. The point is that FMA had a darker view on the characters and their actions, and had a more serious tone to the situation the character was in. FMAB conentrated on the manga's story line, character development, and had a more comical and light view on situations in the anime. FMAB caught my attention in episode 26 where we get to look at Hoenheim's past or, so called past dream; but the point is is that FMAB had a better formula and caught the attention of many fans and viewers. The other other important detail of why FMAB is better than FMA is the ending; more people seem to enjoy the happier and joyful moments than Edward being sent to another dimension all of his life but no biggie. All I'm trying to say in retrospect is that both are fantastic but one must be chosen to be better than the other, but everyone has their own opinion.
