Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - To - Apr. 05, 2009
The other shonen behemoth getting a re-imagining to follow the manga closer is Fullmetal Alchemist. Rather then continuing from where the first series, and movie initially ended Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is a retelling that adhears closer to the manga.

Check to see when it's on at your house. UKers, Americans, and Canucks (like myself) should be good with the FUNimation link.
Sidenote- Premiers in Japan today.

I'm watching it RIGHT NOW and it rules

I'm trying to decide if I should wait for the dub of this or not. Hard decision!
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - TheGigsMeister - Apr. 06, 2009
I've watched the first episode and it really was awesome. Awesome Ending theme to. Whole episode looked awesome in HD.

fma is so overrated
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - Lance Perfora - Apr. 06, 2009

I think it has a really nice story if you get past all the loads of carp. Plus, it's hilarious at times.
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - ReiRei - Apr. 06, 2009
I'm a huge FMA fan.
I was actually pretty impressed with the new series, and it has the potential to surpass the first one, since that one strayed so far away from the manga. D':
So yeah.. I love Brotherhood so far. It had a good first episode, in my opinion.

FMA is not over-rated. One of the best Anime's to date. This is just a remake which follows the manga precisely. Watched the first episode and it's excellent.

When I think of great anime, I think of Cowboy Bebop or Ghost in the Shell. FMA starts off OK but becomes incredibly convoluted as the series progresses.

Watch Code Geass and Death Note.

I tried Code Geass but couldn't get into it. Death Note is a great manga so I don't doubt the anime is good (though for non-action series I generally prefer manga).

Code Geass is brilliant. As well as the anime adaptation of Death Note. Both are a must-watch.

I'm not an anime junkie by a long shot, but I really enjoyed Death Note. Haven't had the chance to read the manga. (Sam's Club had the box set for sale for $60CAD when closing down, but I couldn't afford it
)

I don't know about best but I definitely enjoyed it. Also, I don't think this remake will follow the manga precisely. I thought the first episode was pretty good. I think the fight scenes of the remake will probably be more action packed after watching this first episode. I prefer the animantion of the first anime though

Brad is spot on about this.
In the end it turns out amazingly well, but there's a lot of worthless filler in between.
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - To - Apr. 06, 2009
Well, the whole seond half of the first series and the movie is filler...

hahaha is it really? that explains a lot
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - Rocky - Apr. 06, 2009
^^ That's not true. Not that much is filler. Well if you want to say that anything that isn't true to the manga is filler then yeah, it is, but if you view the manga and anime as seperate works (most people do) then there are only like four episodes that are actually filler. And two of them are quite good (side stories from the manga).
In fact, the other two are only like half-filler. FMA is a relatively filler free anime. :X
EDIT: The movie is really dull though. Don't get me wrong, I do love it and I've watched it a fair amount of times but even I, with my relatively long attention span when it comes to pointless things, got a bit bored in the middle.

Not really, the second half diverged from the Manga, such as Dante being the main antagonist, which never occurred in the Manga. It's stated by the writer of the Manga that FMA 2009 will be a remake and will follow the Manga better than the first iteration did.
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - SexyMichael - Apr. 07, 2009
I watched the first episode with my roommate. Not really sure if I'm gonna continue.
Anime has kinda lost it's appeal to me over the past couple years

Filler usually refers to plot that does not appear in the manga. FMA's second half, movie, and OVAs follow that path.

RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - KoD PT - Apr. 08, 2009
I liked how they kept most of the original voice actors for it. It's good to see this back.
Did the events in the first episode of Brotherhood ever take place in the manga? I never followed it, but I know this doesn't happen at the start.
RE: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - Rocky - Apr. 08, 2009
Uh, what happened in the first episode?
