What you've said is what I've heard from a few friends actually. I've really enjoyed the point up until where I've watched! Happy to have you tag along whenever! :)

So that means I hopefully won't get shit on YT for doing dub? 😂 I've enjoyed the VA so far, I'd agree it's been great! I think I already have up to ep 8 recorded. But when I get to the 20s I'll keep in mind to let the credits roll!

I watched the older 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist anime a few years after it came out. I loved that series but the overwhelming consensus is that the 2009 Brotherhood version is better because it's more true to the original manga. I think by the time Brotherhood came out I was just less willing to tolerate some of those shonen anime tropes so I only watched a little of it, even if it is by all accounts objectively better than the older anime I watched. I probably won't watch most of this but I do know most of the mindblowing plot points from the older series so I'll try to tune in for those.

Oh man I am so hyped to see you react to this! FMA:B is my favorite piece of fiction ever. The dub is absolutely stellar and a lot people consider it the best way to watch this show. The Japanese VA's are superb but there are certain nuances in the English rewrite that just hit harder. Fun fact: The first episode is kind of considered one of the weakest as it is essentially non-cannon to the manga and just serves as an introduction to the anime. Also FYI: Some episodes have post credit sequences. Some are utterly inconsequential/played up for laughs but others have important plot points. These are all the episodes with scenes after the credits: 6, 8, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 36, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 48, 49, 54, 63, 64
