Full Metal Alchemist

[blues4flag]

Anyone else watch this brilliantly brilliant anime? Only 50 episodes long, and gets of to a slow start but really picks up (one absolutely hilarious episode towards the end ). Animation quality is also top notch throughout (unlike something like Naruto which can be very ugly at times).

I watched up until about episode 23 then couldn't find the second cd with the rest of the series on it...was devastated

Absolutely brilliant series

really enjoyed this anime, started off slow, but once you got past 20 episodes it was hard to take your eyes off. the ending pissed me off though, although the much needed follow up movie made the ending a little better.

Rated the greatest anime show ever by Animaga( biggest anime magazine in the world).

In the 20th volume of the manga, creator Arakawa announced that a second Fullmetal Alchemist was being produced. Bones produces the new series with Yasuhiro Irie as director and Hiroshi Ōnogi as writer. The series premiered on April 5, 2009 on MBS-TBS' Sunday 5:00 pm JST anime timeblock, replacing Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and that voice actors Romi Park and Rie Kugimiya reprised their roles as main characters Edward and Alphonse Elric respectively. On March 20, 2009, it was announced that the English title of the series was Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and that it would receive its English language premiere on Animax Asia, with Japanese audio and English subtitles, from April 10, 2009 at 8:30 p.m, five days after its Japanese premiere. On April 3, 2009, Funimation announced they would stream English subtitled episodes 4 days after they air in Japan. Madman Entertainment will also stream it "within days" of the episodes airing in Japan.

I just completed watching the fifth episode of the second series of Fullmetal Alchemist.

The first series has nothing on the Brotherhood. Some of the plots are heartbreaking stuff but like most FMA episodes, they find a way to add a bit of humour to balance the flow.

I strongly urge fellow fans of this awesome anime to watch it, asap. I don't think English dubbed episodes have been aired yet, so therefore, you will have to watch English subbed episodes.

Finished the manga over the holiday and I thinkit had one of the best and most complete ending compared to others.
I really liked it and am currently downloading the series.

Best anime ever, I'm still yet to find a better anime than Brotherhood. Story, Characters, Action, Comedy it has it all.
