What happened on the 2/12/05 episode of FullMetal Alchemist?

Post by **Verence** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 11:21 pm

I had already figured it out.

As soon as we knew all homunculi were once people and that they were brought back (kinda') through alchemy.

That kinda' robbed me of some of the fun of the shock and suprise.

I say count yourself lucky if you got yer' jaw dropped.

Scar's plan is awsome! Lead the enemy into an evacuated town and obliterate the entire thing! Brilliant! Of course it's near impossible to pull off in the real world, because you have time to deal with, careful planning of where the enemy will strike next, and you also don't want any explosives going off prematurely so there is a huge safety issue involved...BUT it's still possible and still very devastating.

eh...ok. I hate Envy, I hate that bomb guy, I hate just about every evil piece of dog shit on that show. Man I thought that Snake Chimera girl was cool that sonovabitch.

Aaaaand I feel REALLY sorry for Al right about now. I mean...ugh, I don't even want to go into details. When I saw that sword start sliding down his armor I was like "MOVE BACKWARDS DUMBASS!"...ok may I didn't shout it out, but thats EXACTLY what I was thinking.

So I take it that his eye was some type of super reflex thing? Or a way to enhance his reflexes as much as he wants? (IS ENVY A BOY OR A GIRL!? Crossdresser....) Anyways...I hope they kill IT next. GAH I HATE THAT THING!

God that was an awesome, tragic, shocking episode! I knew he was Pride, I just KNEW it, that bastard! Poor Rose, poor Marta, poor poor Alphonse!

...

DAMN I love Fullmetal Alchemist!

First of all, Envy is a guy. The fact that he can transform into anyone at will (except for the person he truly desires) is the reason they drew him kinda unisex.

I also take it you found out that Fuhrer King Bradley was, in fact, the one and only Pride! That makes all seven accounted for, if memory serves. If this episode was episode 40 ("The Scar"), then... we're almost there! He, he, he...

If you thought this was tragic and all that, just wait... I start watching the series again from episode 42 so I'll be coming back to make dutiful comments once again.

Yup, when he rolled his eye down after the patch came off and I saw the red oroboruous mark I jumped out of my seat! That whole sequence was so utterly awesome!

I just finished downloading the bittorrent of the FMA manga series through volume 13. That goes past ep 40 I believe, so I'm not gonna read all of it. So far I actually think the anime series did things better. Some things were cut, some things were changed, but all for the better as far as I'm concerned.

Wasn't it?! Yes!

XD

The next episode is episode 43: "The Stray Dog Has Ran Away"(JP)/"Stay Dog"(US). Surprises, plot twists, and plot revelations are abound in these last eight episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist!

Not only do we have a new episode this Saturday, but we also have a new episode prologue. Now that the brothers have found the Stone, Al no longer gives the speech about equivilant exchange -- Ed replaces him for a view on their current situation.

Be SURE not to miss next episode! There's a lot more than that...

Wait, I thought there were four seasons (plus the movie). Haven't only two aired as of yet?

Zephie-chan · Post by **Zephie-chan** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 12:25 am

We're in the fourth season. There are a total of 50 episodes; 51 if you count the special which, I doubt, will air or be released in the US as it was a compilation of all the episodes put into one (like an overview). And then there's the movie, which is a sequel that takes place two years after the series ends (the movie has been subbed and is out).

Episode 42 was the last epiosde, so our magic number is 8! XD

WAH!

And I was expecting twice again as much FMA eventually.

But I suppose its less harsh on the pocketbook at least.

Does the movie/end of the series wrap everything up or do you expect there to be more FMA made? Any rumors/official news?

Zephie-chan · Post by **Zephie-chan** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 8:11 pm

The series is left wide open for the movie, so there is an incredible amount of coolness. You get closure for the series, but then that closure is replace by another need... a need for the movie.

The movie itself ends, and it ends on a semi-open environment. I had goosebumps and was all teary-eyed when I saw the ending because I knew it would be the final Fullmetal Alchemist. So unless they decide to take advantage of that small opening in the movie and make an OAV that has much potential for suckage, there is no more.

... But... The movie is total rockage: you get everything you desire.

Oo, I want to see the rest of the series so I can watch the movie!

I've seen several places to download it, but I've held off because of the massive spoilers it is sure to contain for the series.

Hopefully they'll air the last eight eps in the next eight weeks. I'd simply die if they started over at the beginning of the series before the last episode. x_x

You mean like they did for Yu Yu Hakusho? XD

oohoohooooooo shit!

Half of that dude got vaporized! XD I couldn't think of a better punishment for that prick!

Eh I can't wait til Ed uses the Philosopher's Stone for the first time. I wanna see a BIG GODAMN explosion XD

Ok...Lust isn't so bad now, but I'm STILL pissed at her for the little Petrification Disease bit. I mainly wanna see Pride, and Gluttony dead now....Lust can go after them....then Wrath. I don't give a flippin 'ell about Sloth...the hell does she got?
