--- Quote from: Theriandros on 15 Feb 2010, 11:27 ---I am now in love with FMA: Brotherhood after one episode.
I <3 fight scenes with choral/orchestral music swelling tragically over people dying. (that and the grayscale coloring during the scene with Isaac and the Fuhrer was a nice touch).
EDIT: Just noticed the English dub started airing. Wasn't watching that, but some fansubs. Hopefully they're accurate.

THIS. Don't watch the 'original' FMA anime. Watch Brotherhood. The first one they made was inaccurate to the manga, though that's not the reason it was bad. The reason it was bad is because the writing was terrible and the story ended up not making a lick of sense.
I mention the inaccuracy to the manga because the writer/artist is pretty much as fantastic as they could hope to find and there's no need to improve upon or change what she's written. But when they were first making it, she was only a few issues in...so they had to make something up in order to keep it going. :( What a bunch of impatient dumbs.
FMA: Brotherhood all the way.

To be fair, the author encouraged the writers in making the alternate ending, which I found coherent. ( possible spoiler)(Also: Roy Mustang is a motherfucking badass. Taking on a homunculus with his only hope of victory being that he kills Pride enough to use up his red stones? That takes some real stones)(/possible spoiler)
Since the first dub episode of Brotherhood came out, I compared the dub to the Funimation subs and a fansub that I've been told is good quality. The sub pairs are fairly well matched, but I find it odd that the dub script is different than the subs made by the SAME COMPANY. Anyone know why that might happen?
StreetSpirit:
I wouldn't be surprised if the dubs were different to make the phrasing better fit the already existent mouth movement, whereas the subs can be more of a direct translation.
Scandanavian War Machine:
wait, there's a new FMA series?
I love FMA.
StreetSpirit:
Yes sir, the new series follow the manga more or less to a T minus the first episode which is acts a nice introduction into the seriousness and beauty of the "new" series. It is on Hulu subtitled a week after broadcast in Japan, under the moniker: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. Hope you enjoy it SWM.
Theriandros:
Hulu's delay is two weeks, actually.
Just watched up through the episode with Shou Tucker. The scene with the chimera at the end made me bawl my eyes out, even though I really wasn't too affected by the same scene in the first anime.
(And I love the score to this adaptation as well. I will have to go buy some soundtracks eventually.)
