Fullmetal Alchemist Thread

This, above all other anime i’ve ever seen, is the most awesome of them all.

Theres no way words can substitute its pure genius, but i’ll try

Basically, there are two brothers who learn alchemy because their missing father was an alchemist. When their mom dies, they vow to bring her back using alchemy. However, despite their best efforts, they failed and Alphonse, the younger brother, was broken down completely by the alchemical reaction, whereas the older brother, Edward, lost his leg. They had created life, but it wasnt their mother: it was a monster which died shortly after it was created. Not willing to live without his brother, Edward drew alchemy circles on his body, willing to kill himself to save his brother. He bonded Alphonse’s soul to a suit of armour which cost Edward his arm. Alphonse, now a giant, hollow suit of armour, carried Edward to Winry, their best friend, and her grandmother: who made advanced prosthetic limbs from metal called Automail. They gave automail to Edward, who still hadnt given up on his quest to bring his mother back and restore their bodies to normal, using the one thing in the world capable of doing that: the Philosopher’s Stone

U guys have to watch it. its like a steampunk, bloody, more violent and deeper version of BCB if look at it abstractly.

I… I don’t see any correlation between bcb and FMA. Nor would I dream of classifying FMA as steampunk. Please consider what you have to say and where you say it before posting.

I didnt classify it as steampunk, the website i found it on did.

its correlation between BCB is incredibly abstract and complex. thats how my mind works, but i cant understand simple things. There are teen relations plus various other stories and quests that are undertaken. Consider Ed and Winry? Mike and Lucy perhaps.

;__;

well maybe i didnt wait long enough. why say stuff like that anyway if the new policy will get rid of it eventually if its so stupid?

ime hurt now. other people get to share stuff on here, why am i not a part of this?

Because you keep making threads about stuff discussed before, unrelated to the the comic but claiming it to not be so or otherwise idiotic in some manner. How about you try commenting first, get a swing of things then go back to making threads? It’ll save you from getting your bloody feelings “hurt”…

why do i bother? you guys will just ruin things anyway. i dont need your criticism i get enough of that anyway. you shouldnt take advantage of weak people

Chazfullmetal August 31, 2010, 4:27 PM EST.

Comment ID #84616

Pronkat has the most constructive criticism of them all, we get angry at people every so often but if you keep pushing it and whining about it you’ll go the way of little shota…

ever hear of trial and error? i’ll never learn if you get mad all the time

@Chazfullmeteal

Oh grow a pair of balls will you? People will criticize you everywhere. Also it’s not taking advantage, it’s constructive criticism learn the difference. As for trial an error, stop making threads like a nutter and read the good ones first. I made one crap thread way back in the catalog, a lot of people said so. We left it and that was the end of that. No harm done.

@Ace

Cheers mate! :)

Comment ID #84625

yeah? so leave it and stop commenting jerks!

If your just gonna use every thread I make to make verbal pot-shots at me then im not gonna stop posting them just to hit back. nuff….said…

That has to be the most illogical and daft idea of retaliation on the forums I have heard thus far. Enough said…

Pronkat August 31, 2010, 4:37 PM EST.

Comment ID #84633

Especially since Suit said they’d be deleting useless threads starting now.

Oh and FMA is awesome

MiwAuturu August 31, 2010, 4:41 PM EST.

Comment ID #84635

true, but it’ll annoy you guys to no end.

and ime gonna post a fanstory too, but that idea was before this one. its not a stupid one, its about as dumb as the Time Cops story. and i wont care what u guys think about it either, im posting it eventually

Chazfullmetal August 31, 2010, 4:42 PM EST.

Comment ID #84637

Dude, time cops is awesome, if it’s as good as that then no one will complain… or at least no one should complain.

Just a tip though, fan characters don’t go over as well as they used to though. i don’t know if you plan on making any for it, but yeah.

MiwAuturu August 31, 2010, 4:44 PM EST.

Comment ID #84639

its not terribly sci-fi, but its not bad. i have ideas that’ll mix it up a little as well, and ime refining a time cops chapter for the story (though it wont mess up the actual time cops story, so its no problem)

and yes, there are several fan characters, as the story centers around one in particular. however, the time cops chapter explains why the characters are what they are which is a huge boost. again, no messing with the real fanstory, i dont do that. Its basically about a strange new student and his various friends and family, but you’ll have to wait til its posted to find out more about it.

i refuse to say more, as i get carried away extremely easily. tip for future: tell me when i am.

Comment ID #84649

…I liked FMA pretty well.

Then I found Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.

Both are good series, but I have to say, I think FMA:B beats out the original.

Sorry, I just had to say it. *Shrugs*

Rasputin August 31, 2010, 6:15 PM EST.

Comment ID #84653

If i recall correct FMA brotherhoodis the right serie. The one that follow the manga.

Gnukko August 31, 2010, 6:25 PM EST.

Comment ID #84683

It’s a variation on steampunk. See, steampunk, until the terminology improves, can refer to any situation where the elements of sci-fi or fantasy mix with pre-modern technology. It’s a function of technology right now, and it’s not an exclusive genre, it’s really an element AND a genre at the same time.

That said, Fullmetal Alchemist (and Brotherhood most of all) is incredible, it really is, but my heart will always belong to “Berserk.” NOT the anime.

If you plan on making a fanstory about your fancharacter then I have one thing to say to you. *Raises hardhat above his head* Nope *Head raises up into hardhat*

C’mon, it’s not the worst idea anybody’s ever had here.

The 9/11 and Religion threads respectively take that award.

Is this thread about Chaz trying to be manly? Not to be a jerk.
Hey that incentive thread me and Jerk making up story is nearly as good
