I was waiting until the final episode to say this to avoid spoilers but there is a lot of symbolism around every humunculus death. Each of them died in a way that relates to their sin. Lust died to Roy trying to protect someone he loved. Gluttony was eaten. Envy took his own life, the only thing that truly belonged to him. Sloth died in a tough fight. Wrath died in peace with a smile on his face. Pride was humbled by Kimbly, and was the only humunculus to have their body survive because he is the only sin nobody can fully get rid of in themselves. Greed admitted he had everything he could want, his friends. And finally, dwarf in the flask humunculus, aka father, had no symbols on his portal of truth, it was just blank. This represents that he learned nothing about what’s important in life.

I would also like to add about the prices of human transmutation. Edward lost his leg, his mother was his mainstay in life. Alphonse lost his whole body because his mother was a source of warmth in his life. Edward extended his hand for his brother's return, as Al was his right-hand man. Izumi lost organs related to the birth of children for trying to get the child back. Mustang lost his sight, as it was said, because of his desperate desire to see a bright future for the country. I used a translator for this. since I don't know English well, don't judge strictly

I think Pride also survived because that's one of the most painful things that happens to someone prideful who gets humbled. He even had to live his new life with a mark on his face. As for father. I think it's also symbolic how he tried to get everything, I mean, he literally swallowed God. In return he had to go back to being part of God, a mere shadow in the creation. Probably symbolic of his inability to accept nature or reality as it is and trying to turn it on its head for his own gain, just like the big shots in Central Command, which is related to the whole overarching idea of "endure hardship and you will become stronger".

I really like how the rework is called Brotherhood. FMA is full of brotherhood, companionship, and creating bonds. In every point if the cast we can see some representation of this it in a good or distorted way. Greed in his jorney to "make his own" family. Twice. Father and Hohenheim, when father even gave to him half of the souls from the people of Xerxes in some twisted way of gratitude. And Hohenheim feeling sad for this to be the outcome for the guy that gave him so much in life.

I always loved the parallel between the first Elric family picture and the next: - First, There’s the obvious resemblance between Ed and his son - Second, while the pictures are similar, you had Hohenheim crying, and now you have Ed with a huge grin, showing all is well in the end - Last, he went from resenting Hohenheim to looking like him Side note: Ed has one of the best proposals in anime history (still an alchemist at heart), beaten only by Loid proposing to Yor with the grenade pin. And now that Ed and Winry have a family, safe to say Ed got a taste of that Winry apple pie…

The double circle on young Selim's head now is a contrast from the Ouroboros tattoo the homonculi. The ouroboros is a symbol that represents a continuous cycle of self-consumption, eventually the ouroboros will consume all that it was. The double circle, to contrast, is more of a representation of the all is one, and one is all. Much more balanced, and hopefully for little Selim, able to see both the give and the take, the ebb and the flow, the all in the one and the one in the all - the equivalent exchange that the original homonculi were missing.

@@slimbrady6691 indeed they had variants of the symbol. Gluttony was a failed portal of truth and it makes sense for him to have circles of the balance of truth on him. Lust was the only femme coded homunculus embodying the opposite attributes of father. Sloth's blinded him in one eye entirely blinding him to what his role was. But more importantly than any of that is in alchemy symbols are everything. And even small changes can yield vastly different results. In each of the previous examples, all 3 homunculus lack a simple circle in the circle. They have atleast two circles connected by red lines. This would make the symbol similar, but not equivalent.

The bloopers are sooo good. Also Ed and Winry are to fking adorable. Edit: Olivier's VA is Stephanie Young... she's in a LOT of stuff. Edit2: They are 100% a couple before the exchange at the Train Station... that is not a "Be my Girlfriend!" that's a proposal. Edit3: Yeah... Winry got bigger... at the point where Ed, Greed, and the Chimera are at her place it's been about a year since the series started... and of course train station at the end was 3 years so they were both 18... we can assume 3-4 more years with the "Family Photo". Edit4: Rainbow Connection is a song in the Muppets shows that Kermit the Frog sings.

@@OnMyLunchBreak07idk much about the manga, but i always hear how vile it is in regards of unnecessary trauma porn in regards to the treatment of women and sexual assault (and have seen the pictures of the manga), and saw a pic of a interview of the author admitting that some of the trauma porn with the explicit sexual assault of women is because that sells. For that reason alone, no matter how good the story is, it can’t top Fullmetal as a story. This story holds even small characters with such respect and care for the storylines in a way thats so real (as in, there’s no flat characters. Even side characters are well rounded). And a story like Berserk that gave in to reducing SA as trauma porn to sell can’t really compete with fullmetal.

And there you go! Top rated MAL anime of all time. One of the best story progressions and conclusions of anime and easily among top 10 of most veteran weebs. It was hard not to get teared up at the scene when Winry sees Ed an Al back. And when Ed talks about sacrifices, lessons and a heart made fullmetal, it just takes you back at what a journey it has been. Edward has never been shown as the overpowered MC who saves the day, rather a guy who wants to do whats right and move forward in life. I would say its a near perfect anime story, apart from slightly outdated method of storytelling and punchlines and some convenient accidents from plot sake, its hard to find many flaws with FMAB. Everything from characters, world, story progression and originality its all soo good. I can tell that Luke enjoyed this and its was worth while for my 7th rewatch. Now that we are done with this heart warming journey, looking forward to Re : Zero. Without spoilers Ill just say Im still not prepared I still dread to watch Re Zero Again.

Goodbye to my sweet children, goodbye to my fire colonel, Riza, Ling, and all the characters who have stayed with me for life. That's why that extra chapter of the manga, "another end of the journey", where Al says goodbye to his armor, is so beautiful to me. It perfectly concludes what I feel every time I watch this anime. Saying goodbye to something so close 🔩🧡 A heart made of Fullmetal

Funny thing about Al’s voice since you brought up how different he sounds, there is a very specific bowl they used to get that echoing sound they used on the original fullmetal alchemist. When the team moved to dub brotherhood they tried many different bowls but they didn’t sound quite right so they had to dig out the trusty old Al bowl from the first series 😆 also I believe the VA from the original was to old to do Al in brotherhood(they might have been the person how held onto the the bowl idk) so they ended up getting recast I think as Ling or maybe it was Mai. It was one of the characters that didn’t show up in the origins. just think about that a fullmetal alchemist with no Ling or Mai- love to see you react to the original and see all the difference in the story and crazy plot twists.

Thank you for giving the time to watch and truly appreciate this show. This is just my own interpretation, but i felt like the entire show was a big metaphor for the harsh journey of life, the value of keeping on living despite suffering, moreso than any other media. Some movies portray it well, but FMAB really portrayed it in a deep and direct way. Ed and Al's plot of losing their bodies obviously symbolising mistakes and losses, alchemy symbolising the strength and courage of using what we have in those bad moment, as a crutch, and Ed losing his alchemy but gaining a fullmetal heart implying that he no longer needs a crutch, and finds peace/strength in life, even knowing that it contains sufferings, joys, losses, gains, everything. Last episode, i bawled my eyes out at Greed's death, though it suited him as he died for the one thing he desired most: real connections/friends. This episode, Ling saying ''guess he really did rub off on me after all'' was so damn comforting. A little reminder of how people's existence carry on after death, a posthumous blessing. That last little dialogue from Ed also always reminds me why this show means so much to me. Pain, suffering and regrets are a shared experience amongst humans. We all go through them. And yet if we can keep going and have the strength to endure the pain, we end up with a ''heart made fullmetal''. It doesnt necessarily negate the pain every single time, but i like to think that we do get stronger over time, and it gives value to the idea of never giving up on life, valuing the ability to overcome obstacles. and staying on this damn journey. Diagnosed with depression with suicidal proclivities, this meant a lot to me when I watched this show years ago, and it still hits just as hard, years later. Truly a universal and timeless show. Thanks for the ride man. It was a pleasure to watch alongside you and hear genuine thoughts, crying and laughing together as a lil community thanks to this mere, simple piece of media that touches all of our hearts.

The reason for the song at 16 is cause she just woke up, she knows that it tickles, the sound of al's voice without the metal. But she can't believe what shes hearing, you can see it on her face, like winning the lottery you just look at it confused thinking you must to looking at it wrong. She thinks when she's open that door its gonna be some guy from the village that for some reason sounds like al, but she also knows thats totally al's voice, and al would never say he was being tickled unless... So she's kinda in auto mode trying to process the impossibility of what she's hearing. Also that walk is for keeping his center of gravity high as he leans forward on the roof but you right if someone walks like that on the street a strong breeze from behind can knock em on their face. XD. If you keep ur center of gravity low while on a roof which might be your instinct, it makes it real easy to slip a foot and throw urself off balance. Even easier since he still has a fake leg, I seriously wouldn't be up there in that condition, hire a professional.

That bit about the Rainbow Connection as the guy is dying is based on a song that Kermit the Frog sings. The song is the Rainbow Connection.

There are some speculations among fans that the truth went pretty easy on Mustang, only taking his Eye_sight_ , not his actual eyes, so that it could be retored by a philosophers stone, because Roy _didn't_ actually break a Taboo and the truth knows it. It is a bit unclear wether or not Ed _could_ actually return his leg with the Philosophers stone. Hohenheim said that he could not return Izumis Organs, just shift around what is there and he _is_ a philosophers stone. now, it might be possible that he meant couldn't more as in _wouldn't._ She broke the taboo, she paid the price, he will not give her back what she has lost. But it is also possible that you cannot cheat the truth like that. Roys Eyes and Havocs Spinal chord are both still _there_ they are just damaged. But hinestly, I'm not entirely sure, plus, as you said, Edward would never use a Philosophers stone to get his leg back

That would make sense but I'm fairly certain you could still get the eyes back with a philosophers stone as well, it would just use up more of it than his eye sight. Keep in mind that we are never told that Edward couldn't get his leg back using one, he just always refused to use peoples lives as fuel for his alchemy, so it's not that he COULDN'T use a philosphers stone to get Al or his leg back, he just didn't want to. Well obviously now he can't use alchemy anymore but Al could get his leg back using a stone

@@EskChan19I'm pretty sure Ed couldn't get his leg back with a Philosophers Stone even if he wanted to. When Ed sacrificed his Portal, Truth disappeared with it, along with his leg.

Yea I think Hoennheim probably could have returned her organs, but he just wasn't willing to. Perhaps, like you said, he thought she deserved some sort of punishment for her sins or perhaps he just couldn't afford to use his Philosopher's Stone for something like that because he knew he was gonna need all the power he had for the ensuing showdown on The Promised Day.

I think that background song is fitting. Because while things are basically back to normal now, it took many years to get that far, and that was _with_ Ed, Al, and even Winry putting their lives on the line for it. That lost time isn't coming back. There will always be a gap in their youth where things were different, where Ed was missing an arm, where Al was missing his entire body, when they barely had the time to even drop by Resembool to see Winry on their long journey. It's something they can heal from, something they _will_ heal from, because they're strong. But that doesn't mean that it's not a sad thing. When you lose something or someone and find peace with it, it just means thinking about it doesn't upset you any longer. It doesn't mean you're not sad to lose or it don't want it back. I think the song captures that feeling well, a sense of bittersweet nostalgia for a time that never was. Happy that things are back to normal, but sad about all the time and effort it took to get there.

I love that you finally saw that many of your wishes when it comes to the ending came true! Overall, it really is a happy ending and I think they really deserved it. I'm so glad a whole episode was dedicated to it too, so you can see how everyone is doing without rushing. Haha and the bloopers! I admit I actually haven't seen them all before, just some of them randomly, so some were new for me too :D Well, glad you enjoyed FMAB so much! I guess you could check the openings and endings now again because you have context (especially the last opening hits very hard when you know what's going on). Your reactions were really enjoyable, thanks for the opportunity to watch it all again with you :)

I can honestly say I didn't just enjoy the dub with your commentary, it felt like watching one of my favorite anime's ever for the first time again with a friend. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and your genuine appreciation of this show! Greed/Ling is also a fave of mine that slowly grew on me through the entire series, so I totally related to you. It has really been an absolute pleasure! You're such an amazing person, I do hope you keep reacting to other shows ☺

The reason Roy is allowed to take the shortcut of using a stone to get his vision back, narratological speaking, is because unlike the other sacrifices he didn't use human transmutation willingly. It would make no moral sense to punish Roy for a decision he didn't make. Edward and Al have to attone, not Roy, so from a storytelling perspective Edward and Al just getting their bodies back willy nilly would be bad storytelling, it would feel arbitrary and unearned, but that doesn't apply to Roy, who was forced. For him the conclusion of the storyline is that since it's the ishvalans that essentially give him back his vision, symbolic for the end of the cycle of hatred, that Roy should repay this forgiveness by spending the rest of his life earning that forgiveness, by doing what is best for the Ishvalans. Amazing writing.
