It's for real. I mean his aunt is named Aisu Kyuubu (Ice Cube) lmao. It's pretty obvious.
Or the "antagonist" Kurisu Takaya, Chris Tucker.

What's Legolas anime? Vanadis? That's a pretty good one imo.

Finally finished Psycho Pass S1 and watched the first two S2 episodes.

It really isn't the same without Kogami, though. But I'm sure he'll be back (or was he even the "villain" at the end of the last episode? Couldn't tell).

Im just gonna post here because i need to express how mind fucked i was after watching it.

Full metal alchemist, Episode 7.

+ Show Spoiler +
How in the world is this classed as a cartoon for kids? This program is fucking brutal. Alchemist creates talking chimera, only thing it says is "i want to die" then starves itself to death. Turns out, that was his wife he used. Then decides fuck it and uses his daughter and her pet dog to create another which leads to some heartbreaking fucking shit i cant even begin to explain, is then brutally murdered by crazed lunatic and ripped apart from the inside and you see her/its shaped bloodsplatter on the wall.


I honestly dont know how i didnt have some sort of emotional breakdown watching that wtf.


Hahah, yeah that part is intensely sad. Don't worry, there's plenty more intensely sad scenes to come. The way that series gets the viewer to feel the whole gamut of emotions is what makes it so incredible to me. One second you're laughing incredibly happy, the next you can't stop crying, and everything in between.


Im watching FMA not brotherhood :-) Dem feels tho T.T

No, keep watching the original. Brotherhood is awful in comparison, doesn't manage to do it as well as the manga for that version of the story.

Brotherhood is leagues above the original, the thing the original does better is the start. Once the original began doing its own animal original thing it went down the shitter.

I just went and found / watched the episode i spoke about, Brotherhood does in ~10 minutes what the original spent 2 episodes building up. It felt pretty subpar tbh.

+ Show Spoiler +
In the original you spent 2 episodes watching them grow a relationship with this little girl and her alchemist father, only to find out he was a sick fuck. In Brotherhood within the space of 10 minutes he's introduced, super-fast mother backstory, turns daughter into chimera, both then murdered.


It really didn't have the same "effect".

What makes Brotherhood so much better? I could switch since im only a little into it :-)

Brotherhood follows the authors story.
Original is anime original after a point.

The original had a really strong start, a stronger start than brotherhood i'd argue.
But the second the original began doing its own thing it started getting pretty sub-par compared to brotherhood.

http://www.animefillerlist.com/shows/fullmetal-alchemist vs http://www.animefillerlist.com/shows/fullmetal-alchemist-brotherhood to get an idea.

Don't believe their bullshit. Brotherhood keeps on like that and follows the "original" anime up until a point where they split in very different directions. Brotherhood follows the manga, but doesn't manage to keep an interesting atmosphere throughout.

The first anime's ending is a bit WTF to most people along with the movie following it but personally I found it very enjoyable still. Brotherhood felt painfully generic and too obvious at times in what would happen because of the way they set things up. You pretty much knew where things were going all along, which definitively isn't the case with the first anime which keeps on suprising you. The core story still has some nice points though with some really nice characters and concepts but that's because it's based on an amazing manga.

The OST is very good though. If I wasn't biased because of nostalgic feelings linked to the original soundtrack, I'd say Brotherhood's is a significant upgrade.

O.O WOW.

So, would it be a good idea to watch the original up until the massive filler point and then watch brotherhood ( / both as seperate entities.) ?

Since alot of people are saying FMA's start was better and really i agree after checking out brotherhoods example above.

I'd probably recommend watching either both as seperate entities in their entirety or only watch brotherhood. But since you're already invested in the original you might as well finish it i suppose.

I really disliked the directions the original took and the movies were just plain awful imho.

FMA basically covers up to 10 eps of FMA;B. FMA only has the setting and a few of the initial characters then it does its own thing so it's not really "FMA". They are both pretty good. FMA flops around a bit in the middle then has a pretty cool ending segment. FMA;B felt more solid overall except for the start. Don't switch between the two. Just finish watching one then watch the other knowing that they are completely separate.

Also ignore Elem.

You're being silly if you are going to change your mind just because the majority seems to think one thing, and barely elaborates on why they think so. If you think that the Brotherhood story appeals to you more, you should just read the manga as it does a far better job than the anime.

That is awfully rude when you do not even try to discuss your own points while I at least try my best to explain as much as possible.

Don't switch. Watch FMA then when you want watch FMA:B. There's differences even in what is the "same". They different stories that are set in the same world and contain similar characters.

Never ever get invested into harem shows. There is no such thing as a good harem show.

They are all terrible and anyone who says otherwise is fooling themself.
