Just A Thought Many years passed, and it just occurred to me in my mind that Envy in 2003 adaptation was Edward and Alphonse's eldest brother 😳

Because Elric brothers dad is Van Hohenheim and so is Envy's dad

And Envy was Hohenheim's firstborn child and later the Elric brothers

Video Honestly I think I prefer how the backstory was does in the original full metal alchemist

Personally I think this scene has so much more impact, seeing more than just a silhouette of their mother is genuinely horrifying and the voice acting is genuinely so gut wrenching.

Theory/Analysis What if 2003 Wrath and Sloth were in brotherhood?

In brotherhood

Izumi's child was from what I remember in a flashback was something entirely not human, same goes to Edward's mom

But assuming the human transmutation failed differently like how it went in 2003

And they all brought back to life and they were given philosopher's stone by Father to fix their form

How would they change the story once again?

Just A Thought What if other Homunculi has "True forms" than Envy,Pride and Gluttony ?

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

heres some ideas;

i know 09 Wrath was a human converted to homunculus with no regeneration or shapeshifting abilities, which is why his true Form would be more like both armor and furnace, It represents his searing rage he has been holding back.

The armor is inspired by Berserk's berserker armor,Furnace (Starved Eggman), NRG (Ben 10) )

Lust's true form would be a Wicked Beast,referencing to "Beauty & Beast" , her "true form" would be very disturbingly ugly as her human form is very attracting.

The form design is inspired by Dimitrescu (Resident evil 8,also same Jap VA) and Kalisk (Predator Badlands).....With "Rosen Garten Saga" artstyle

Question Why was Ed suspicious of Lyra in Liore?

7 Upvotes

I know that Lyra is actually Dante, but Ed (and the audience) wasn't supposed to know that at the time, and he was acting really awkward like he thought she did something. Also, when Ed and Izumi return to Dante's mansion, Ed somehow comes to the conclusion that Dante is controlling the homunculi out of nowhere, even though he literally saw her dead body. How does that work?

Currently writing some fanfic that includes the boys buying ice-cream, and...how much is one cenz exactly ? Ed asks for 520 cenz for a payphone, and calls the Colonel a broke ass, so...

Like, how much would groceries be ? ICE-CREAM ??? An apartment ? A box of donuts ? Alcohol ?

Update : This has been answered to be equal to one yen. Thanks to those who answered !

Discussion/Opinion Hot take: FMA 2003 is important if not essential to watch before FMA Brotherhood

Post image
0 Upvotes

So this isn't something i just pulled out of nowhere. It's something I've felt strongly about since i finished Brotherhood for the first time many years ago.

Brotherhood can be seen as more of a soft reboot and less of a hard one in the right context. I know that Brotherhood is canonical to the manga whereas 03 had to go It's own way once it caught up to the books but hear me out here as nothing I'm about to say clashes with either of those facts.

A huge part of the story of 03 revolves around the concept of a parallel world, a concept similar to the multiverse. By the end of the series it's discovered that the FMA world is a parallel world to our own real world history, meaning that Amestris for the brunt of the main story is a parallel/alternate reality version of pre-WWII central Europe/Germany.

In this light, you can essentially view the continuing layers of parallel realities to be adjacent to one another metaphorically, with one on either side of the reality in question. By this logic, the two FMA series reference 4 distinct realities.

Reality 1: Our real world reality. Unaltered by the actions of alchemists from other worlds and true to history.

Reality 2: A version of our real world history that was affected by the actions of alchemists from other realities as seen in FMA 2003.

Reality 3: The FMA 2003 continuity version of Earth as seen and told in that series.

Reality 4: The FMA Brotherhood continuity version of Earth as seen and told in that series.

I find these layers make the overarching story all the more interesting. They even reference real-world ideologies like Christianity, essentially being an archaic/extinct religion in the lore of FMA 03. The series is rich with connections that make it strikingly similar to Brotherhood, but also unique and deeply connected to post-WWI industrial Europe.

How these facets enhance the experience of Brotherhood is more related to how FMA 03 and FMA Brotherhood each end. FMA 03 ends with Al choosing to remain trapped without Alchemy with Ed in the reality Ed had been living in since his disappearance from the 03 timeline years prior. This is an extremely sad ending because even though it's bittersweet to a degree with the brothers finally being reunited, it also means they'll permanently be cut off from all their closest friends and family. Winry, Pinako, Mustang, Armstrong, and so many others they'll never see again, but it's Winry, especially that makes it so bittersweet. Brotherhood ends with truth/god essentially confirming the reality of equivalent exchange, allowing Edward to trade his door of truth and therfor usage of alchemy for Al's body. Both series end with Edward losing his ability to transmute, but only one ends with him losing Winry. So, in the happier ending, Al gets to keep his alchemy, and they both get to keep the people they love in their lives.

By watching FMA 03 first, you get a deeply grounded system of connections between our real world history and the world of FMA. Then it ends with a very bittersweet moment, leaving you wanting more for Winry and the Brothers Elric while also making you just happy to see the Brothers reuinited. It also sets you up to view FMA Brotherhood through the lens of it being the next and final reailty for these characters. Experiencing these things before you watch Brotherhood makes learning the grandiose and truly happy ending of that series all the more meaningful. It makes Ed and Winry's ending especially and incredibly more impacful, emotional, and rewarding. Watching FMA 2003 after Brotherhood or never seeing it at all would be a true shame, i feel like, despite most fans agreeing that Brotherhood is the better series. I feel like more fans should recommend them both as one whole thing rather than try to put one above the other. They compliment one another enormously.

Question Do new Gen anime fans typically like FMA?

I see new gen anime fans giving older successful anime bad ratings all the time. Some of its clearly rage baiting but a lot seems like they genuinely dislike some older stuff. Im wondering how FMA 2003 and FMA:B is usually viewed in their eyes?

Question Unpopular opinion/Question about the 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist anime adaptation into manga

0 Upvotes

Growing up, I watched the Fullmetal Alchemist anime, and later I found out that there is a manga with a different storyline (which the second anime, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, was based on). I know I'm in the minority—a very strong minority—but I've always preferred the story of the first anime (maybe because of nostalgia). Does anyone know if the first anime was ever adapted into a manga?"
