Trash anime is like junk food.
It's not of a high quality, but sometimes it can be fun in small doses. And some people love it in big doses.
They often have mediocre characters and plot and are also full of overused tropes. Like how two anime this season had basically the exact same first episode in terms of events.


So where is the in-between between trash and good shows. In real life, we got junk/fast food, normal and healthy cheap food, and really fancy food . cause its looking like so far the in-between for anime doesn't exist


Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is the definition of in-between anime.


Idk man, FMA has one of the biggest budgets in the history of anime. It also aired on primetime instead of midnight. That's about as fancy as it could get


Well budget and way of presentation sure makes it fancy but fancy doesn't necessarily mean high quality.

FMAB has pretty much everything a good anime needs and does none of the things exceptionally bad but also doesn't excell at any of them. It's like a middle ground meal that serves you all the nutrients you need and also tastes ok but that's about it.



Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.


Uh yes, it's my opinion. Well, I could probably write a longass post to back up why it doesn't excell in each category and "only" does them well but that would be too much effort for something that was supposed to be a joke.


//Uta is quite decent so far if you overlook some stupid things like multiple "ooh, so delicious"-scenes in a single episode.

I have watched my fair share, probably not as much as you guys but still. http://myanimelist.net/animelist/Gurafity

I'm still a casual watcher. Only watch what's good by MAL standards.

I don't like how Comet Lucifer is evolving. Honestly, I didn't really enjoy episode 3. It doesn't help that I don't like the characters very much.

Mostly, it's what Miragee said last time. + Show Spoiler +
The alien girl is just being annoying (how often did we hear Meowgeon this episode?) and the others don't really make up for it.

Oh and that villain reminded me of the guy in Kuusen, lol.



At least Dragon Ball super with the best episode of it so far. Satan is a god.

Your Kuusen analogy is on point... But that is anime for you. I don't know which sane person would draw those facial expressions to depict insane people but it sure is popular in anime.

Fuck those writers and fuck me for trusting them.

If you're asking about which to watch, definitely brotherhood.
The other version went anime original and imo just became downright bad, brotherhood follows the source incredibly well on the other hand and remains good all the way to the end imoimo.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

Because FMA is a piece of trash in the second half. It's riddled with plotholes and completely ridiculous plot points. The first half is largely the same as FMAB but it takes about 25 episodes to tell the story FMAB tells in 15. FMA unnecessarily drags out the beginning and also throws in filler episodes here and there. The only things that are superior in FMA are the soundtrack (imho) and the animation (I don't know how they managed to have a less smooth animation in FMAB than in FMA considering the aforementioned huge budged of FMAB).

I like first portion of FMA better than FMAB. If you call that unnecessary dragging then you might as well just watch a highlight reel of the action and skip all the actual story.

To me the beginning was just a bunch of short stories to introduce the characters. I realised their purpose but I didn't think it was necessary to do it that way nor do I think they were well done on their own. FMA added a few more of those short stories in the beginning as fillers and dragged out others. E.g. the one where the scientist merges his own daughter with the dog. I know people say FMA did it better because it took longer and thus one would care much more for the daughter etc. However, I think it doesn't matter whether it's 1 or 2 episodes because it's not enough time to connect to any of the characters to really feel empathic either way.

So no, unnecessary dragging doesn't mean I wanted them to skip the story. I felt like the beginning didn't have a lot of relevance for the actual story.

The first 20~ episodes of FMA2003 are better. Brotherhood's last 57~ episodes are better. With some minor differences, the first parts of both anime cover the same material. Most of the differences are in pacing, although there are some actual minor story differences in there as well. When they diverge from each other, Brotherhood is miles ahead of 2003. The last half of the 2003 just sucked, plain and simple. Meanwhile, the first handful of episodes for Brotherhood, while rushed, weren't bad.

So its a pretty open and shut case of Brotherhood being better.
