Anyone for Full Metal Alchemist?

**Ultima** · 07-04-2005, 08:18 AM

This is one of my favorite Anime shows next to Inyouasha and Samauri Champloo

**SSJ4 Goku** · 07-04-2005, 06:34 PM

Yes! Fullmetal Alchemist is slowly climbing the scales on my "favorite anime" chart. I've been watching since its initial start on CN a few months back and I'm anxiously awaiting their airing of new episodes this autumn.

I'm also reading the manga...well, by that I mean I've read volume 1 and I'm planning on purchasing the newly-released volume 2 some time soon...hopefully.

But yes; FMA is definitely an amazing series. My favorite episode so far as 25 (the one with Maes Hughes's...well, you know). I should hope I don't have to explain why, that that episode blew me away.

I have only seen a few episodes of FMA, and it was pretty good, def in my top 5 faves so far, im yet to see more...havent had much time to watch tv lately, i get it last in this family....i need to fix mine...anyways it was an awesome show, hopefully ill be able to watch more of it later.

I love Full Metal Alchemist but there's no new episodes. I have the first Full Metal Alchemist game, but I kinda didnt like it. I'm probably wont buy its 2nd installment. Hey, the have Full Metal Alchemist Manga on sell.

**Angel of Death** · 07-09-2005, 01:17 PM

Full Metal Alchemist is definitely my favorite Anime (though I admit I'm not a real anime fan) right next to Samurai Champloo. I love full metal Alchemist, the humor is kinda repetative though. There's only so many times peopl can call Edward short.

Does anyone know if they sell FMA dvd's?

**Azuteor** · 07-09-2005, 06:11 PM

Yeah they sell FMA dvds try Best Buy. I'm sure they sell some, or try searching the video game stores in yur area.

Tell me about it! I was holding back my tears the whole esp!

I've seen about 3 episodes, and read 1 volum of the manga. It's good, but not the greatest. But I can't really judge it, after that little, maybe I should get volum 2, or watch som more episode's. But it's kinda hard getting episodes when you don't have Adult Swim ;_;.

**Azuteor** · 07-14-2005, 05:42 AM

Well, I don't judge the comics I buy or read, I like FMA and that's how it'll be. I've read the first volume of FMA at the book store its kinda good, but weird seeing Ed and Alphonese not animated on tv.

**Sean** · 07-14-2005, 10:41 AM

Meh.

I saw the whole show awhile ago, before it started on CN, and I didn't like it much.

It's good, don't get me wrong, but "favorite anime" material? Hell no.

I'll stick with Naruto and Bleach, thanks.

The ending of FMA was.... horrible, to say the least. But I guess they were trying to leave it open for a part 2.

I cant' remember what happens between Episodes 25-51 really. o_O;

**Bryan 2.0** · 01-31-2006, 12:11 PM

When I first watched FMA, I had no idea what was going on and I wasn't even sure if I like it or not. So then, I bought the first volume on DVD from Best Buy and have fallen head over heels for it.

Now I own too much FMA crap for my own good.

Gar16 · 07-02-2008, 05:10 PM

Love it. I wish it was still being made. It had a brilliant story and plot lol and the first episode i saw confused me ha

It is still being made. The anime ended but that was not how the story was to end up going. The original story made by the creator is in manga form and that is still being released. FMA is one of those series that get released once a month instead of weekly like the other series. The company that licensed the FMA from them to make the anime made it too fast and they past upped the manga series. When they caught up with the original story they went their own direction and made it totally confusing. I liked the anime up till that point before it hit the fan and went all crazy like, in my opinion the creators of the anime screwed up the story after they passed the original’s work.

Anyway I prefer the manga that is still being released over the anime since it makes sense and understandable.

**WTFspin** · 07-31-2008, 10:30 AM

FMA has become my favorite Anime right next to DeathNote.
I love the Alchemy.
I love the story.
Everything about it.
Its amazing.

**Dragon_Jiriki** · 08-08-2008, 04:01 PM

Oh yeah i like FMA too. My favorite series though are Inuyasha, Bleach and Naruto. Haven't had a chance to check out episodes lately tho - they tend to air late at night here and I'm not always interested in staying up (I was up all night last night!).

**Secret Weapon** · 08-08-2008, 10:05 PM

True and what most little things that is put in animes' makes FMA seem all the much better. Humor: every episode makes me laugh.

Storyline: No flaws I could see in it what so ever. It kinda confused me at first cuz I didn't understand who them 3 evil alchemist were (the woman with long hair, that fat guy with small eyes, and that other gurl)

I would love when it would come on even a repeat. They could've made that anime big if they would've had more ideas and plots. They came out with a game for this but I haven't played it yet.

My opinion for Full Metal Alchemist?

x infinitety= Most definitely sweet.

**Dark Squall** · 08-10-2008, 04:00 AM

Yea, this Anime is one of the best, but in my opinion...The end stinks, why the hell ED should die!! and when the movie released it ruined it more, coz there wasn't lots of fighting crap and then Al died too!! what I actually should say is "WTF is goin on?!!"

But yea the Anime rocks.

**Lithium** · 08-10-2008, 10:56 AM

Fullmetal Alchemist, I remember when it was being shown on T.V. I think it isn't anymore. (Athough I have been wrong before . . .)
Anyway, I was totally obsessed with the series after the first few episodes. Every time it was on Adult Swim on CartoonNetwork I would literaly dive after whoever had the remote to watch it, and I mean literaly dive! Haha.
I loved this show because for me it bent the realization of the world around the two brothers. It showed me what a different world this world would be if something like that was possible. Added from watching the series I began to study the ways of Alchemy. But I gave up on it because I was losing my mind to it . . . I am not crazy.
But non the less I love the series and everything about it.
Added they have really cute characters! -Giggles-

**Dark Squall** · 08-18-2008, 08:08 AM

Why don't you try the youtube, I'm sure you'll find something there.

Fullmetal Alchemist · 09-02-2008, 05:03 PM

all of u r saying that you need to buy and watch on tv.............THERE IS A THING CALLED INTERNET!!! go here>>> Watch FULL METAL ALCHEMIST Online or Download FMA - Watch-FMA.com to watch all the eps and the movie in dub.........and they are making a second season of it!!!!! (the manga is totally different because most of the show was filler eps and the movie [like all anime movies] was a fake).

Fullmetal Alchemist · 09-03-2008, 08:53 PM

I watched full metal alchemist a while ago now and really enjoyed it bar a few choice points in the ending, I wont spoil anything but I'm pretty sure anyone who saw it knows what I mean. I'm interested in knowing how and when the anime differs from the manga, I know it's a little off topic but still.

**loner-kid** · 09-04-2008, 01:25 PM

I was hoping for something a little more specific but thanks for answering anyway

Fullmetal Alchemist · 09-04-2008, 08:44 PM

well it means that the whole story (other than that they're getting the stone) is different so u kinda need to read it from the beginning.

**Dark Squall** · 09-05-2008, 04:02 AM

I heard the 2nd season will be in the other side of the gate. You know, the "real world".

Fullmetal Alchemist · 09-05-2008, 05:29 PM

lol,
Roy: "tiny mini skirts!!" xD

well it starts there (well it supposed to) but idk what it will show.

**Rasler+** · 09-05-2008, 04:32 AM

Oh dang, this brings back so much memories.
I loved watching FMA when I was younger. I like the story, the style in drawing, the concepts about alchemy and more. One of the best anime series out there if I do say so myself.

Some of the characters I like are: Ed, for being the hotheaded shorty, Armstrong, with all that muscle craziness xD, Roy, `cause he kicks ass, and Riza Hawkeye. She keeps reminding me of how much I love guns xD
