Mine has to be Pride. Sinister.
Thought lust is pretty good too. She's smex.

Jayster23 December 17th, 2010 3:48 AM

Mustang killed her in a awesome way. Ripping the Philosopher's stone out of her breast ;)

derozio December 17th, 2010 4:16 AM

That was one of the most epic scenes in FMA:B. I really loved that part. Not really when he put his hands between her cleavage, though. XD; The way he killed Lust, I mean.

Oh, and talking about Mustang, here's a nice image I found:

Man, that image so totally made my day. :D I'm usually not a shipper, but RoyxRiza is my OTP, lol.

Jayster23 December 18th, 2010 7:15 AM

Hahaha lol. Niceeee.

I like Mustang he can be funny at times. Espically trying his 'pick-up' lines.

Pokestick, good times. December 19th, 2010 8:57 AM

Mustang's awesome... But Ed's smexier <_< = >_>

Jayster23 December 20th, 2010 4:16 AM

Nah Al is the sexiest thing alive. Then Armstrong ;)

EDIT:
I got my Greed theme. :D

Pokestick, good times. December 30th, 2010 7:37 AM

It's pretty cool :3

I'm not a great fan of the original Greed myself, though.

Bay December 30th, 2010 12:19 PM

Oh, nice Greed theme, Jayster! :D

Hm, while I'm here, I might as well mention this. Adult Swim will be airing Brotherhood again on January 9.. Real quick, it's mentioned the third arc of the show (the beginning of Briggs) is scheduled to air. Lol, I don't have cable but Adult Swim's website posts the episodes not long after it aired, so I'll most likely watch them when they're online.

I'm looking forward to see how the dub will handle this. The third arc is actually my favorite after the fifth one--Olivier Armstrong, the Briggs crew, Kimblee, the past in Ishval , what's not to love? :P

Pokestick, good times. December 30th, 2010 12:28 PM

I might give that a look :3

All the episodes are already available on YouTube subbed, but it could be cool to see the Briggs arc in English!

Jayster23 January 2nd, 2011 2:56 AM

Oooh! Sounds nice. I don't have cable or whatever. So Online it is.

Pokestick, good times. January 2nd, 2011 9:36 AM

I watched the entire series on YouTube. Darn good quality.

DJ Scruffy January 2nd, 2011 3:35 PM

So I have about 7 episodes to go until I finish the 2003 series.

..also, isn't Brotherhood just basically the same thing, but following the manga exactly? So there's not many changes, I'd guess. Probably not going to start that until they finish the English Dub, and right now they're only up to about 27 episodes...

Well, they aren't really the same thing. Brotherhood follows the manga storyline, which is actually pretty different from the 2003 anime storyline.

Waiting until they finish the English Dub could take awhile, (if they are only on the 27th episode out of like 64), why not try watching subbed?

I dunno. I find it really disorienting having to focus on subtitles as opposed to the actual actions/speaking taking place. I felt that the English voice actors are pretty good as well, so it would be even more disorienting making the transition from familiar voices to reading text. D:

I watched the Briggs arc already on YouTube (and the rest of the episodes, haha), but really looking forward to how the dub will do the arc also. Want to know how the English voices of Olivier, Miles, and Buccaneer will fare. XD

And DJ Scruffy, yeah I'm like that too, but I'm impatient so I decided to watch the rest of the Brotherhood series subbed. XD I agree that the English voice actors did a great job with the characters.

Jayster23 January 2nd, 2011 9:24 PM

For once the English voices are good.

I'm going to watch the 2003 series first. Only up to episode 5 at the moment got a lot to do.

Oh you spoiled English speakers who aren't used to a little text~ ;D

Jokes aside, both series are good. But it doesn't take longer than ten episodes for Brotherhood to cover every single part of the 2003 that is canon. So Brotherhood really shows some new stuff in comparison.
And they manage to fix every single plot hole and sum it all up petty well by the last episode, much unlike the 2003 series.

mikey January 4th, 2011 3:49 PM

I liked both series, but I think that Brotherhood had much more to offer, since it followed the manga storyline.

Pokestick, good times. January 5th, 2011 5:40 AM

Yeah. You simply can't beat Hiromu Arakawa's story.

^ this.

I love eye candy. Brotherhood, due to it being an anime which came later, has more of it. Hence, Brotherhood > Original for me.

Pokestick, good times. January 5th, 2011 5:51 AM

Eye candy as in Winry's breasts being bigger or eye candy as in enhanced graphics, Vikky? xDD

Crusher January 5th, 2011 5:53 AM

Obviously the first one, Phillip. You know me. XD; Not really.

Pokestick, good times. January 5th, 2011 5:56 AM

I'll take your word for it xD

But anyway, I love the graphics, too. The first FMA was really great in that aspect... For their time. But nowadays, we all want clean super advanced computer effects, so we're happy when we get that :3

Bay January 5th, 2011 9:40 AM

I'll agree the graphics for Brotherhood is much better than in first anime. I like the more darker colors being thrown in instead of the tan-ish like colors in there. Also the character designs are more natural and rounded per say in the second anime while the first anime it has its sharpness to it that I'm not feeling too much of. True, the 2003 version is usually how the other animes during around that time are like, but can't help comparing the two FMA animes. XD

Pokestick, good times. January 5th, 2011 12:06 PM

Nothing wrong with comparing them.

But if we looked at how anime was back in 2003, FMA was amazing. It still is, if you haven't heard of FMA:B xD

Bay January 6th, 2011 9:44 AM

Oh, I actually quite like the first anime's art too, I just prefer Brotherhood's for many reasons, haha.

Jayster23 January 7th, 2011 4:29 AM

I prefer Brotherhood because it's the Manga in anime form and that's the story i know and love.

Pokestick, good times. January 22nd, 2011 12:47 PM

*coughdefinitelynotanobviousbump*

Yeah, the manga form is just splendid.

They did do a good job in the anime too, though. Taking an unfinished story like that and trying to find a good way to seal all the holes... That's hard.

I agree. The first anime did a good job fixing the holes when the manga was starting and a great story on its own.

And something FMA related...remember the new movie I mentioned a while back? Well, a couple weeks ago it's been announced will come in theaters July 2nd. Also, apparently there's going to be a FMA festival in late May. O.o Wonder what that's going to be about because this is the first time I'm hearing about an FMA festival. XD;

Pokestick, good times. January 23rd, 2011 4:15 AM

FMA festival... O_O

Sounds like there's gonna be a bunch of cosplaying, to say the least.

Jayster23 January 24th, 2011 5:46 AM

O_O nice.

I wonder how many people are gonna cosplay as Al. That would be annoying if you did that. So hot in a suit of armor for those die hard cosplayers XD

Bay January 25th, 2011 10:52 AM

Yeah, seems that there's going to be a lot of cosplaying involved. If I were to cosplay, I'll probably be either Lan Fan or May because I'm an Asian female, haha.

And Jayster, I would really feel sorry for the people cosplaying Al in the armor suit! XD

Pokestick, good times. January 26th, 2011 12:36 PM

People have always told me to cosplay Ed.

I dunno, I'm similar to him in most ways except I'm so damn tall :/

Jayster23 January 26th, 2011 7:39 PM

Lol i just realised Ed wears platform shoes to look taller XD

I'm not a fan of cosplaying but if i did cosplay i would probably go as Mustang :D

Pokestick, good times. February 5th, 2011 1:55 PM

I have never cosplayed in my life xD;

Jayster23 February 5th, 2011 5:50 PM

Neither have i lol. I'm never actually thought of going to an anime of manga or whatever convention until recently but the cosplaying would be the most annoying part.

Pokestick, good times. February 6th, 2011 7:13 AM

My girlfriend wants to drag me to some convent this summer... But I think I'll go without cosplaying. Gosh, I'll stand out xD

Anyway, anyone heard more news about the movie?

Tomboynerd February 10th, 2011 7:34 PM

Who's death is sadder
Ed or Mase Hudges

Pokestick, good times. February 28th, 2011 10:29 AM

Spoiler:
Ed doesn't die :/

...WAIT, you mean like that pathetic "death" in the 2003 anime?
If you mean that, then Maes' death was way sadder. Dramatic, it made sense, and it really made you love the character. And it had so much effect on the other characters and the storyline.
