These brothers backstory is so dark and tragic... we were not expecting that! This episode was amazing and has us totally hooked! Really looking forward to seeing where this goes. Thanks for being here and watching with us! Until the next one!

I am 30yo and this ep is still traumatizing

I’ve seen a little of both brotherhood and the original, but I actually dont watch much anime and stick mostly with the manga. I usually prefer a story in its original medium

Just curious, overall did you enjoy the remake more or the OG? I’ve only watched the OG one so this will be the first time I’m watching the remake.

Have fun with FMA. It is definetly a cut above the rest. But be warned: This one will stay with you for a long time :)

Hello. May i suggest u switch every episode from sub to dub. Yes u had a poll but u also said this poll will not determine ur decision. So I thought u might give ur self a chance to hear it in dub and then make a final decision. Nevermind what the others want. Just give it a try u never know, u just might like it a bit more. Its just a suggestion 😉

No spoilers here but please not, folks, it's worth taking notes on concepts they introduce because they will be referred to often and are important to remember. Things like the equivalent exchange, Edward not needing the circle to do his alchemy (and why he thinks that is) are important to remember.

It’s so weird for me. Not the reaction but because FMAB was one of the few anime I watched Dubbed and not sub. The dub is pretty good

“He discovered the internet” 🤣🤣

Yeah, as someone who watched the OG anime, a couple of moments (you know which ones, lol) really didn't hit as hard, because we took less time with the characters effected.
Giovanni Paredes
im a native english speaker and i still prefer sub 100 times, the emotion is all lost on the dub, like in everything else that is not on his original language, books, movies, theather....

Girls, girls, girls! For this show, there is something I'd like to request! Like how you've been reading the SBS in One Piece from the manga: the manga of Fullmetal Alchemist has a bunch of so-called 4-koma* at the end of each volume. *a 4-koma is a short 4-panel story like comic-strips (think garfield for example), so basically a short story in 4 pictures. Most of them are humourous and some funny as heck/comedy gold. There are a few other joke pages thrown in. The author seems to have had a bunch of fun with it. If possible, and I think could help with this, could you read through those?

Yeah, their story is really not a happy one ^^' But absolutely one of resilience and of inner strength to fight for those important to you

best soundtrack in all anime

I'm honestly really surprised that the sub won out against the dub. I thought the dub was kind of the standard but then again not everyone is an English speaker so it makes sense.

no reason for this comment, please delete it. All of this will be fleshed out later in the series.

Then watch the full length reaction with the dub
Dark_Eternal
Good grief. There was all that discussion, and the poll (where the sub had 50% more votes), and H&K have also deliberated and made their own decision. You'd think that would put an end to it, yet here we are. Continuing to pester for the dub at this point is just rude. If it's such an excruciating ordeal to watch it in its actual original language, then just stop watching it.
Erik Larsen
Agreed. Rearranging the order of events and having a filler Episode 1 takes a lot of the punch out of several reveals in the early story. They end up revisiting a good chunk of this material in more depth later on anyways, so having this weirdly condensed exposition probably wastes more time than it saves.
Hiei
When I first learned this fact I was so happy lol
Jeffery Sit
The OG was just very popular in Japan or even Asia, so It's understandable.
Renee
I forgot how ridiculously fast the pacing of the remake was. Even with it retreading the material of the original I wish it had taken its time more
Iron Lord Rock
i just realized ed's VA is Toshiro from bleach <3

Re: trauma - one thing I really like about this manga is how much grit every character has, however major or minor they are - and it's inner strength you can relate to even as a ordinary, non-super powered person, glad you're enjoying it so far
CacoMetal
Hello Ladies!!! P.S. Come on people, the ladies are just in the second chapter and you are giving explanations. Don't you believe that it is better to let them understand and discover the story on their own and at their own pace. Please!

Day 2 of asking to please stay with sub
Morgan Hellström
There was a poll. Sub won. Get over it
Kenshin Himura
So this shouldn't be a spoiler but you actually have seen the teacher in this episode.
Sussa
The ingredients they used were all the chemicals a human body have. You can't create something out of nothing, it's very "sciency" as you said.
Sussa
There was a pool and sub won, get over it dude =/

No spoilers, just clarification: Ed and Al's dad was/is also an alchemist, so he had lots of books on normal alchemy in the house. Ed and Al studied them on their own enough to do basic transmutation. When their mom died, they found their teacher and had her train them more to improve their skills. They didn't tell her that their goal was human transmutation. There also isn't a book on how to perform it just laying around. They figured it out on their own and performed the transmutation in secret.

Welcome to the show. xD Now you know what you're kind of getting into. Also, check out that scene with bradley again and look at him when he's putting his hand out at Ed. Look at his other hand/sword. xD

Day 2 of asking to please switch to dub. I’ve never realize how hard it was for me to watch in sub.
