Shwa Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Can someone tell me the song they play during the ending of the new episodes? The one that sounds like their saying, "Stay" or something...I wanna put it on my iPod with the rest of my anime songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 That's the fifth ending song, right? In that case, it should be "I Will" by Sowelu (according to the ANN encyclopedia). Last night's episode sealed it for real: Envy is my favorite Homunculus. His voice actress totally stole the show, as far as I'm concerned. I appreciated her work from the moment she came in, but in the most recent episode, she really managed to sound just like a Japanese seiyuu in terms of how she embodied the character, despite considerations of gender. (I don't mean Envy's seiyuu in particular; I mean female seiyuu who voice not-young-boy male characters in general.) [spoiler]The screaming and the ground-pummeling were just awesome. [/spoiler] Speaking of the others, [spoiler]Lust won major points with me for proving herself to be the eternal rebel...[/spoiler] And in yet other news, I like Sloth's new dress. :animeshy: ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hey_love Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 [quote name='Dagger']Since when did they start using the new OP? It's very slick-looking; I was pleasantly surprised to see it, since they kept saying they'd use Ready Steady Go for the whole series. [/quote] [size=1]They had the new opening about 5 episodes, I think. I really like this new opening. I found the song a while ago, I didn't think it'd be one of the openings for FMA!. Lust's rebellious actions make her one of my favorites. And Envy's actions, so.. strong. :animestun Only a couple of episodes left until this series finishes in the US! :animedepr [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshin DX Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 The new opening is great. I love the song I must have listned to it 100 times. The animation looks great to.

[quote name='inuyashagirl_69']who do you think would make the hottest couple of the shows[/quote] No one. That's one of the reasons, along with spoiler paranoia, that I haven't gotten into the FMA fan scene. None of the possible pairings draw me in on anything beyond an aesthetic level. Honestly, I think making some of the relationships romantic would cheapen them and shortchange their complexity. *shrugs* I guess I'd back Mustang/Hawkeye, but not with much enthusiasm. I like them just fine as co-workers. I really dislike the idea of either Elric/Winry. The brother-sister thing they have going is a lot less simplistic and a lot more appealing. No real room for yuri unless you throw in Winry/Sciezka, haha, and the BL stuff out there is a) intensely incestuous or b) not that thrilling (again, in my opinion). That said, I'd root for crazy, sadistic Envy x anyone at all. Throw any of the Homunculi in there, and you'd have an awesomely dysfunctional couple. Mm, Lust/Ed... ;) I read a hysterical (in a good way) Ed/Sciezka fic some time ago. In it, she got him in the mood by reciting passages from alchemy texts... :animesmil ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shi no Tenshi Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I watched Full Metal Alchemist for the first time last week, whilst on my laptop and not paying attention. The result was a mish mash of misheard dialogue, dodgy misconceptions and a storyline I'm pretty sure I made up. Don't take offence to this - I know I didn't. [U]FMA Random Episode[/U] [COLOR=DarkRed][SIZE=1](note from r2vq - this will spoil Episode 12 of the series)[/SIZE][/COLOR] [spoiler]The introduction was scarily like Pokemon, I actually thought it [i]was[/i] Pokemon until I heard the theme tune (which was surprisingly catchy - I liked it). Slightly dissapointed because I wouldn't get a dose of the gayboy, his rat and his companions the ginger girl and lecherous teen, I decided to look away and play with HTML on my laptop. Enter scene with three people in a room and a gargantuan robot. As far as I know, they seem to be running away from someone. Whilst they panic a little boy grows a random giant tree to block the door. Drool starts to fall out of my mouth as I wonder why would they need to run away from anyone when this kid seems to be the King of the Ents. Then I loose interest... Something happens, then something else happens. Then I'm sure someone dies, and the blonde guy with the cool red coat decides to ditch his friends and run off with the giant robot. Tosser. Later I find that the robot actually speaks, and in the voice of a young boy or Michael Jackson - I couldn't quite place my finger on it. This conversation takes place in another tree, another Lord of the Rings moment. I expected the tree to walk along and for the blonde guy to have an Irish accent (which would have been more appropriate seeing as FMA is meant to take place in Europe... I think...) I like Irish accents. I then overhear something about placenta's and then red water. This catches my attention for a short while (purely out of disgust) and as far as I know a fat man explains how they distill placenta's into red water which is some sort of life substance with the potency of gun powder. The story is taking a turn, now the man has a gun that runs on periods and theres not one tampon to be seen (or woman... except for some kinky dominatrix that resides in a cave where the red water flows... I don't want to know what that was about). The period gun is destroyed eventually and they try to kill the fat man - but to no avail. He escapes though a very convenient trap door. Or something like that. More red water scenes. More red water... ah yes, then the dam that held the red water breaks (I wasn't aware there was a dam....) and the Ent King makes the trees absorb it. Ew. End of the episode... it felt like 10 minutes was dedicated to saying goodbye and cathing a train as well as the Ent King and his older brother musing about their flawed father... who did something so terrible I can't remember.[/spoiler] [u][b]THE END[/u][/b] I'm sure this is more amusing to those of you who watched the episode. Please don't try to explain it to me, I'd rather live in blissful ignorance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshin DX Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Half your post was disgusting, its not a giant robot , you completely diminshed one of my favorite animes, and this will go down as the most pointless posts in history Congrats.

ANBU kunoichi Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Wow... What's really scary is that I actually know what episode you are talking about. Next time you watch a show like FMA, I suggest you pay attention to the episode. FMA is a really good series, and does not deserve this unfortunate (not to mention disturbing) spin on it. Although it was pretty funny. Seriously, though. Although you had a few thing right, (and when i say few, I mean very VERY few) most of what you heard was entirely wrong or something they said taken EXTREMELY out of context. This show is not as disturbing as you think. Once they restart airing the show from the beginning, give it a try. I think you'll like it. As for you, Mido, lighten up a little. It was meant to be funny, not to ruin a perfectly good series. Like he said, he wasn't listening, not to mention it was his first time watching, so it's perfectly understandable that he would confuse some of the series for something it's not. I've done it before. Do you know what it's like turning on Lupin III for the first time and seeing a guy in a room of topless girls? :animeswea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I bet Ed would get a suprise while he was asleep. But ...

Even though they were also way off it was still very funny though. However hey, how you see FMA is how you see FMA... I wish I was able to see it your way though...

Gaara kun Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 [COLOR=Navy]Ok [/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]no[/COLOR][COLOR=Navy]...watch it from the beginning. Don't judge an anime by an episode you happened to watch when it wasn't even NEAR the beginning. Of course it's confusing, and you have gone and dissed a brilliant anime. Great job.

Dark Neko-Chan Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 [COLOR=DarkRed]Yes, Fullmetal takes place in Germany, I think. (I have time to muse over why, but I won't go into that.) And your post was fairly amusing, but at the same time, disturbing... :animedepr One of the disturbing parts being that I know which episode you're talking about- watched it last night during dinner over pizza and root beer. Yay, root beer! :catgirl: Anyway... I got a book on the art of Fullmetal and there was a picture of Al (the "robot") and the artist's comment was "Little kids still come up to me and say, 'Al's a robot.'" I can see how you can make that assumtion, though. First time I heard of it, me and my friend were talking on the phone while she watched TV and she says, "Hey, I'm watching this anime on Adult Swim and there's this kid and his leg is cut off or something and there's a big suit of armor with the voice of a little kid." I find the show rather addicting, though. My mom does, as well. :animesmil[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shi no Tenshi Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Heh, for those of you that got upset, I'm not dissing the show. Like I said, it's the first time I watched it and I wasn't paying attention - I don't doubt it when you say it's good. I don't know, I've never really watched it properly haha. Yeah now I know the gimmick with the robot, half of it doesn't seem so confusing... sort of *lol*. It explains why he was yelling 'BROTHER!' half the time (what is it with blood related anime characters yelling out BROTHER or SISTER to gain their attention? come on, he has a name... even if I never caught it XD) I'm glad I made some of you laugh, I couldn't leave something so delightfully strange go to waste. I may watch it, I may not. I'll have to see if they repeat the series, the concept of Alchemy is actually something that intrests me. And for the record I'm a she ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 [quote name='Shi no Tenshi'](what is it with blood related anime characters yelling out BROTHER or SISTER to gain their attention? come on, he has a name... even if I never caught it XD)[/quote] This is a cultural thing. In Japan (and in other quite a few other Asian countries), siblings call one another "Brother" or "Sister." That tends to carry over even when the show is set elsewhere. Translating it that way in English may sound strange, but I also believe that good VAs can pull it off. It does irritate me a bit when subtitle tracks replace "onii-san" or whatever with the character's name, though. ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
