I can't watch this episode without this ball of anxiety and dread in my stomach. And having such emotional whiplash so soon into a show? Wild

THIS episode. This is the "between and after". This is when we break. Even after finishing FMA Brotherhood, you'll keep remembering this one. Man, I will never forget this episode.

that sounds like a lot of self hatred to watch this more than once, let alone multiple times

girls, you know I want to support you but as a father, I cannot watch this episode again. I would be even more devastated than before, watching you cry over this one. This episode is one of the saddest I’ve seen in television cinema or whatever we call it these days.

Alexander didn't deserve that

Chris Jarrett

glad to know we aren't alone and everyone hates Shou Tucker.

Billy Dancel

The other day my internet was down so I couldn't watch this. I wish it was down again

This one hit really hard but you got through it.

Ben Asay

That's awesome lol

Ah, the one episode that makes AND breaks fans of fullmetal alchemist. This is the proper welcome into this phenomenal series. I've seen other reactors completely quit the series so hopefully you two will ride through it. Whether you read the manga, or watch the older version of the anime, or watched brotherhood, this chapter/episode scars viewers, and as someone who's seen this from the older anime years ago, it still stings when I watch it.

My god, the dread I felt when I realized what episode this was. I didn't realize it happened so early.

i read the manga of Full Metal Alchemist before even watching any of the 2 animes ... i was like 14-15 same age as Ed and Al ... and when i read this chapter like everyone i was so shocked and feel sick to my stomach, even considering to drop it and quit reading the rest of it ... but i had to recognize if this anime went this deep and serious this early on ... how will the rest of the story unfold? so i keep reading, and till this day at my 30's it became by favourite anime of all time ... One Piece is competing against it ... but since OP has not finished yet its still a close race xD

Does anyone know if that's a website that I can watch a version of FMAB with subtitles that match the English audio but with the Japanese voices in the background. I kind of prefer the Japanese delivery slightly better but I like the English dubs translation better.

Back in like 2014 Japan made a national poll for anime "most hated" character of ALL TIME ... Shou Tocker ended up at #1 by a huge margin ... the national poll also included best anime dad, and Huges won that as well :) so Full Metal alchemist had both best and worst dads in anime xD

One of the few episodes of anime where i skip reactions. You have my condolences. If it makes you feel better the writer confirmed he went to hell in universe. Edit for context: Hiromu Arakawa would draw pictures of characters ascending to heaven when they died in "In Memoriam" segments. She drew Shou Tucker burning in Hell as Nina and Alexander flew up into the clouds.

Zee

Still as devastating and shocking and made my blood boil as the first time I read it. Unfortunately people like that are real, people who justify anything to achieve "progress". Also I forgot the serial killer introduced this early too lol such a grand entrance

Ben Asay

Thanks 😅 I try to keep comments like this vague or after they learn about it, in case of spoilers but in this case, I can't imagine a worse character in all of anime.

Jakob

I'm glad you didn't say "in the show", or quantified it with "in anime." Nah, this dude is straight up one of the most hated characters, period.

Beor

I remember when this episode came out, hearing the chimera trying to talk like the girl, its remnant half expressed memories, the hairs on its back and void in its eyes, the contrast between the joy earlier from both individualities and the sadness and pain it's expressing now, and the fact you learned earlier that the chimera made from his wife begged to be killed... it was SO wrong that I felt sick, I had to make a pause and go outside touch some grass lol Later all anime forums were talking about this, it shocked a whole generation. Even now when someone uses the "Ed...ward" meme gif you always get someone saying "too far dude" xD

Ben Asay

Shou Tucker is one of the most hated characters. I want to reach in the screen and deck him 🤣

Haylo

This was PURE horror out of left field. So shocking!

J.D.

ohhh man. i forgot how early on this episode is in the grand scheme of the anime. doesn't matter how long ago or how many times i've seen it in passing... it stings -.-. Emotional damage before emotional damage became a meme/reel

TamashiiTheGemini

I've seen this so many times, yet I will never get used to it. Here are the obligatory tea and cookies for those who need a breather after this episode. ☕🍪

This episode of the original haunted me as a child. Nina and her fate was so horrific to me.

I was dreading the reaction to this episode too. Honestly, my reaction to this was just, man, i remember I stopped watching for a time. When this episode came out it was quite SHOCKING in the anime community, we were all effed up. While there was a lot of effed up stuff in anime already - this came completely unexpected. They did a great job honestly building up Nina. Probably one of the most memorable episodes in anime history. Fmab came out a while ago, so there's been a lot since there, but you have to keep in mind that it sort of set the bar for what was to come (like OP, Bleach, Naruto), and at that time this was really, really shocking. An adorable little girl, especially at that time was sort of a trope, to add some light heartedness to an anime - so to actually go in this direction...ouff

Watt

This freaking episode, man...

Shou Tucker is probably the most hated anime character in history. Like, the villains/bad guys always have at least some fans (hell, I once found a person on tiktok whose favorite character of all time is Spandam), but literally EVERYONE agrees that Shou Tucker deserves the worst.

Alexander Tonkins

I saw it in the original too. I was not ready!

Alexander Tonkins

I remember my 1st time. All i could think for minutes after was " Jesus efffin christ"

Iconic ep, not just for FMA but for anime itself. This one will stick with you for a while.

aaaah the episode that gave me ptsd and made second guess every other anime from that point so i have shields up in my head and always read every premise in Myanimelist to gauge the level of PTSD i was going to get. aaaah What good days those were was before this episode, I saw a poster and would watch an anime. Actually this episode made me watch anime less and just many forms of media apart from anime, so thanks, you nightmare fuel ep4.

Jake from SF

Shou (not John) Tucker must die. And even in death and in hell he can never suffer enough. Anything but excruciating pain every second of his existence in life and in hell is too lenient..

Ilsuk Yang

You're just watching this episode and thinking, "Aw, what a cute girl and dog! Wait...WTF". Personally, this part of the story hit me harder in the original, 2003, anime as I believe it was 2 episodes, so we got to know Nina better, so it had more emotional weight behind it when it happened. I will say, that Brotherhood does a better job with emotional whiplash due to the suddenness of the events, but people will prefer different methods. Either way, massive EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 😭😭😭

watch anime they said it will be fun they said

Basque Grand, also known as the Iron-Blood Alchemist, is a high-ranking officer in the Amestrian military. He holds the position of Brigadier General. and that murderer got him... food for thought
