We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

I just highly dislike the original FMA's movie, and without it the ending is quite unfinished. Over all, I'd say that the "shared" parts of the story are all a lot better in the original, a lot of the one to two episode stories are better in the original, but that the main story has some flaws (mainly the ending + movie, as said) which makes me prefer Brotherhood. Not saying that Brotherhood was perfect in that regard though.

Also, + Show Spoiler +
regarding Winry's parents and who killed them
, I feel like it's a tie between the two (just a random example where I find the original and Brotherhood to be quite equal).

i have some vague (to say the least) recollection of a cartoon or maybe it was an irl series where this happened (probably the guardian warrior didnt speak much, and there was possibly another character involved).

but an anime like that would be cool too

vampire princess miyu might be like that but idk i havent seen it
basically young girl & her warrior guardian questing


maybe Katanagatari.

Plot and Settings from wikipedia:
Katanagatari is the story of Yasuri Shichika, a swordsman that fights without a sword, and Togame, an ambitious strategist that seeks to collect twelve legendary swords for the shogunate. The son of an exiled war hero, Yasuri Shichika is the seventh head of the Kyotoryuu school of fighting and lives on isolated Fushou Island with his sister. At a request from the female general Togame, Shichika and Togame set out on a journey across Edo-era Japan to collect the twelve Deviant Blades.

12 episodes of 50 minutes... I really liked the story and characters. also, fighting against swords using bare-hands is pretty cool.

In the shared parts between the two versions, the original is better. But thats what, 15 out of 60 episodes for Brotherhood? Not enough to make up for Brotherhood's later parts being much better, and the ending absolutely crushing the original's "welp, I have no idea how to end this, lets make up shit" ending.

Since it's suddenly sort of relevant... I watched like ~9 episodes of NGE and then I stopped watching. Since Sent wrote in the NGE thread that Rebuild was a bit better, I went ahead and watched the first rebuild film. Should I have watched the whole original series before doing so (or before watching the rest of the rebuild films) or is it fine if I just stick to the rebuild movies?

I would watch the original since its hinted pretty heavily that the rebuild series is a direct sequel to the original. Alot of references you probably wont get unless you seen the original and EoE. But watching just the first rebuild movie is a fine substitute for the first 6 or so episodes of the show. Rebuild 2.0 goes completely off the track

Rebuild is completely watchable without having watched the original series. The first movie is more or less a prettier retelling of the first half of the TV series, but the 2nd goes on its own plot.

I still don't buy it, seeing as Anno said it isn't a sequel. Gainex stuff has self-referential stuff all the time.

We are talking about a hazy memory here and isn't Katanagatari quite recent?
Anyway, once I read the description I'm convinced I've seen a live action series like that. 85% sure it was live action-.

Onepunchman is excellent. The plot's pretty funny, and the art is ridiculous.

Stupid question perhaps, but anyway: exactly where does the FMP: Sigma manga fit chronologically (if it even follows the LN:s?)? I just finished reading burning one man force, maybe I should just stick to the LN:s.

It start with DBD and then kinda runs away on its own. Alot short story mixed in though so it's worth the read.

So basically it's original story starting where the anime ended? Hm, worth reading? I'll finish the LN:s first regardless, though.

On another note, the latest Psycho-Pass episode reminded me of Kara no Shoujo, lol.

It adapts starting from Ending Day by Day (the stuff that made up The Second Raid), and then more or less follows the LNs. I don't think its finished yet, but it should be getting close to Always, Stand By Me (the last LN). Although iiirc, Sigma didn't include Dancing Very Merry Christmas.

It's in Stand By Me arc, but it skips ALOT of stuff

If you read LN make sure you read all the short story vols, they are the best
