Having finished Full Metal Alchemist, I moved on to the second ‘version’ of the series. So far things are quite interesting.
I really was expecting a pronominal experience from this but as I currently am at episode 10 or so, it isn’t quite blowing me away. Seeing as this version is based on the anime, I was really, really looking forward to a more immense experience. Though my opinions are based on only a few episodes, I can see that this version will go on much longer than the first version.
The anime feels rushed and I’m not sure if it’s because of the fact that I’m practically watching it again or because it really is. The plot is mostly the same though which is good but also bad in this respect.
Brotherhood is definitely more serious and the animations are much better making it have a much greater production quality.
Spoilers:
- The ‘last boss’ was pretty extreme and overpowered.
- I feel like they had the ending just because they should. Things get pretty extreme with the whole ‘absorb God’ thing.
- Briggs men were pretty cool.
- In the last episode Scar smiled, I found that to be ridiculously scary.
