omfg that was badass

File #2 worked. omg so much delicious FMA again, I am beyond excited right now.

I know right now that it's going to kill me that I have to wait for each week because OMG I HAVE MISSED THIS.

First things first, I did a "comment while watching" thing in notepad while I was watching, so I'll throw that under a cut and then do a more coherent review of it. xD I started a few minutes into the ep with the real-time squee.. so it's missing some of my initial reaction.


Gracia/Hughes interaction = loveeee

HUGHES T_T

"List of foods I want to eat when I get my body back" AL IS SO CUUUTE

HUGHESSSSS!!!!!

waaaahh wtf splash screen voice-over is weird

mustang is so badass..

aaaah armstrong. lol hooray for the sparkle and fists!

whoa... wtf is he doing? that red alchemy light still creeeps me out... *shiver* didn't we learn that the philosopher's stone is a bad idea last series?

ahahahaha... armstrong is just as crazy as always.

holy crap... a city-wise transmutation circle! not cool man... not cool

i want my own personal al

noooo his head!!

mr ice alchemist... pot kettle... you have some nerve.

T___T "you just took a step towards hell" young ed and al still make me saddd

omg i need the soundtrack for this!

LOL soaking wet mustang is amusing. but damn.. still badass.

i would NOT want to meet king bradley in a dark alleyway... god that's creepy

wtfff he totally killed that guy without moving. that's messed up

wait... bradley has a son? am i missing something

i think i'm going to be sad everytime hughes is on-screen

lol major armstrong brought ed flowers... "these muscles will warm your heart, feel free to touch them" ilu armstrong

OMG LUST <33

she has a castle?

NO WHY IS IT OVER!!! IS IT NEXT WEEK YET?

Awww... love the ending song amimation




OK.. coherent review time. The opening song is fitting in lyrics. I was too busy fidgeting about how excited I was. I like how we start the series in the middle of everything. You see Mustang interacting with Bradley from the get-go and the first intro to Ed and Al is when they're facing down the Ice Alchemist. Lots of references to the war and everything that's happened. I think that if I were a new viewer I would be confused (and intrigued).. but I am glad I do know the background here. There's a lot of action in this ep which was definitely on purpose I think. Any people returning to the series would already know what was happening and it would be very boring to just go through the whole "this is how they ended up like this" from the beginning. And all the old faves make great entrances. Armstrong with the sparkle and rampant need to tear off his shirts... Mustang with the whole 'I am a badass who will light you on fucking fire so BOW DOWN' attitude... Hughes. omg Hughes it was like a SHOCK to see him again. And we get instant intro to his family (which features Elicia right-off) and I LOVE the interaction we see between him and his wife. T___T So sad. Did I mention the action??

And of course we get a lot of RAWR I AM NOT TINY from Ed because based on the interactions between Ed and Al and everyone else... they are all actually just meeting him. (Except for Roy). Lots of mistaking Al for the alchemist, etc. It was cute to see again. And there was a shot of Lust and Gluttony at the end that had me flailing because Lust is all sorts of awesomesauce.

And the ending theme song had animation that looked like cute crayon drawings!! Which was so cute. Preview for next week indicates what we're going to get the origin story next and I am verrry interested to see how it differs from the first version.

...srsly why isn't it next week yet??

T_T Be prepared for a lot more of this rambling from me as the series goes on. SORRY!!
