THAT Animeblog

=(

We all knew it was coming, but alas it still brings a tear to the eyes.

Personally, I much prefer sad girls in snow to a sad boy in armor. Emo+lack of fighting=boring episode when you’ve already seen the melodrama before. I like that there was a lot of Winry, but other than that the episode was pretty forgettable. It was one of those inbetweener episodes after something exciting happened and before something else exciting/imporant is supposed to happen (Huuuuuuuughes!). At least the gags and humor parts didn’t seem too wildly out of place in the first 2/3 of the episode since the overall tone was more lighthearted. And for the love of god, could they stop with those really awful “Fullmetal Alchemist!” Engrish voice overs in the splash screens.

I haven’t dropped it yet! Two weeks ago I was out of town for a few days, and last weekend I was studying for finals (plus the episode was dull) so I skipped them. I’ve also started work on the summer anime preview, so there’s always that to anticipate sometime soon.

Well this week’s FMA was certainly less exciting then I thought it was going to be. I was expecting more of a fight and less chatting and feeling sorry for yourself. At least next week we get to see Winry all grown-up. Mmmmmm, blondes.

Well we all knew it was coming, but it seemed to creep up on us pretty fast. The first truly fucked up part of FMA. Regardless, they did a pretty good job presenting it, and it sets the stage for a lot of later development.

I apologize for skipping over episode 2, but with the traveling and illness I suffered last week it couldn’t be helped. It was mostly material from the first series anyways, although I thought they did a really good job of explaining what happened in the past in a quick, yet quite clear manner.
