I think angelic is trying to state that he does not like your incorrect english.

Moving that aside...

Yes, I do agree japanese episodes are much better than the dubs. I saw one ep of FMA dubbed and it was okay. Better than some other dubs I've seen (one peice anyone?). However, remember that FMA is licensed and talking about downloading japanese subs for FMA is considered illegal here.

^Not entirely. There is the "grey zone" that has been discussed on other boards. So long as you purchase the original medium of the material, the purchaser rightfully owns a personal a license on the object at hand ([anime in this case]). This basically allows you to keep other copies (this includes fansubing of the anime) elsewhere on your hard disk drive, CD, DVD. So long as you hold physical proof that you have purchased the episode in question, you are safe.

I've done very little research on this, so I cannot say that the above is gospel, but I do know the laws.

When I get out of work, I'll try to outline these and put them into the Licensing thread

I do this all the time, because most DVD translators don't get the proper personality of the character in the text.

And (on an unrealted and related note) am I the only one that thinks Ed's Seiyuu sounded like she had something in her mouth the entire series?

I watched FMA yesterday on DVD disks 1-4
I realizes that Al's voice sounded like an eight year old's...
I guess since he doesn't have a body to age in his voice doesn't age either?

:p Maybe not... I prefer Ed's Japanese voice actor, even if she is female :3 Ed's voice is better feminine, XD

just in case no one knew yet. The DVD fansubb for the FMA movie is out on baka-updates. Not GREAT subtitles but the video quality is good.

I had redstorm as the sub and the subbing and the video quality was great. I can't believe its all over now. fma is definately my favorite anime ever, and now it's finished. man why did they have to end it like that :cry:

Hello, i've just recently downloaded FMA Movie and i'd been waiting for ages to watch it, but it's all in japanese with no subs! ><!! soo pee-ed off! Is there anyone who would be willing to sub it.. if anyone knows how to? or do u know people who can? :heh:

(just read that baka updates had fma movie) Are you serious!? cus i downloaded it from baka-updates, but it didn't have any subtitles?!!

yeah it does, it's the PSYKE release. it's MKV (if i remember correclty) so u need the right codecs to see the subs i think.

ohhhhh i c! i was using VLC player... so i guess it did't show the subs. Thanks anyways, but i found another file, waiting for it to load ^^! can't wait!

o_0* MKV is playable on VLC with subtitles w/o any external codecs...

yeah, i think VLC should have worked (VLC plays EVERYTHING). i dunno why subs didn't show. It worked for me with WMP anyway.

did you turn the subtitles on XD

Ha-ha-ha! yeh i turned the subs on, i went mad! >< i had been waiting for soo long and it wudn't play! O.o! oh well i found the Redstorm version on Mininova.com n i just finished it! ^^!

It's quite gd, but i think sum of it was a bit of a let down, and personally i think the first 40mins wasn't much action, but its still one of the best anime eva!

N i've heard there's goin to b a second series! n_________n!

where'd you hear that? I thought it was pretty much decided that the series was over. Especially with Ed and Al in this world.

not to mention, i kind of don't want another series (at least with the same characters). It had a solid end and I just don't want it to go so long it looses its flavor. Although, a story involving the same world might be good.

Well my friend said he read that there 'may' be another series.

I duno, i think the film left quite a few openings for a new story, and as they are in our world, i guess they'll meet new people! -shrugs-

I wud like them to continue fma, but as long as it doesn't dry up and ruin the whole series, and they must make sure that theres a solid plot. None of them random fillers lik in naruto and bleach (althought the bleach ones alrite)

The sequal is the movie.

All I could find (after searching the release prespecives for the next 4 years) is the OVA (http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=4269). It comes out in late March.

I think FMA had a great ending. I watched about half of the movie and stopped.

FMA was so good i loved it roy is so cool i want his gloves damit!!!

After the movie, i'm really curious to how the manga will end. So far it's pretty different from the anime.

FMA was so good i loved it roy is so cool i want his gloves damit!!!

Haah my friend's got them,. but she bought them in HK O.o! they're really cool , but they're too big 4 her! :sweat:.
You can probably find them on9 sumwhere...

Whoa, did you see the latest dubbed episode of Fullmetal Alchemist? There were a lot of revelations and a few major surprises.

It seems Envy reveals his true form and kills Ed!

I LOVE FULL METAL :( :( ITS SO SAID

U DONT HAV TO TYPE IN CAPS THO

And I presume you meant 'sad'. Yell at us all, and don't even spell right.

Personally, i own the fansub, have for ages. Unfortunately, haven't had chance to watch the enitre series through, but it is wonderful! My goal these holidays is to make the time to see the entire thing through, instead of in dribs as I have.

Saw it, love it, fave character:The Blond Dudet

Man, i cant believe the show is over. No what im supposed to watch at twelve o' clock on saturday nights. Does anybody know when the movie supposed to come out. Please somebody, anybody. Because i really want to know.

The Japanese version is already out. I'm not sure about the English version, but I believe I read somewhere that it is set at some time in October.

Wow, really awsome, but at least late then never. Then who in this thread is going to see "Fullmetal Alchemist The Conqueror of Shambala"(sp?) whenever its going to come either in theaters or video i dont care as long its coming to the US. I"ll be happy.

*And also i'm not sure if thats the US title or not.*

Urm.. FMA movie is out to download, but it's only subbed in english and i think a couple other lang. but it's not dubbed yet.

On Ed's watch, does it say never forget Oct 10 or 11?

@Eternity- Oct 10th. When he n Al burnt their house down

On Ed's watch, does it say never forget Oct 10 or 11?

Last eppie left me hanging Poooor Ed *glares at Evny* GRRRR vv

Yeppers

wooo they brought out a full metal alchemist ova. chibi party ^_^ ahhh how i love fma but its only 6 minutes long :cry:

I just finished watching it. The ending made me pretty upset, and a friend already spoiled the movie for me. :\

Ehhh!

My family things im really weird because when somthing bad happens to a game character or someone from a show or movie I feel bad. I mean, I have more emotions for those who die in cartoons then those I see on the news....

Im half way through FMA epi 15. I feel really bad and really really sad and angry.... And the nerve of the people to laugh when they are doing what they are!!!

Same here

Like when The guy turn his daughter and dog into a cimera(sp?) I was so sad/shoocked/Mad I just wanted ed to beat the crap out of him. That was soo crewl/evil to do that to a sweet little girl

That mae me so sad... and when they

killed the its T_T...

I thought the anime was so sad.............as in T.T.......and not rubbish sad
There were too many dark and depressing things happening in it. I thought the movie was a nice way to finish it off.....still didn't really like it tho, i think the manga is the best out of the three

Well I already saw the whole series and I'm currently on volume 7 of the manga...

Fav. char~Armstrong (FEEEEEL THESE MUSCLES! lol XD)
Least-fav. char~Tucker (raspy voice and evilness? nuh-uh)

Can't wait for Shamballa!

Shamballa was alright, i was expecting more tho...

who's tucker.........?

The mad experimenting guy..! Fi... how could you not remember? it was such a sad part.

His daughter, ring any bells? http://images.warcry.com/thumbs/52160.jpghttp://ceo-bcn.upc.es/pase/fma/imagenes/tucker.gif
The mad guy himself.
http://www.nautiljon.com/images/perso/miniatures/Fullmetal_Alchemist/shou_tucker.jpg

yep! now i know............

i think it's coz i watched it in chinese...........u see.......
but either way, i don't tend to recognise any names anyway....=S

Shamballa was alright, i was expecting more tho...

Yeah, it could have been better.

Ya I love Full Metal Alchemist!It's so sad what happened to there family so far I ended up getting the 1st,7th and 8th DvD I cant find the other ones...
But all in all it's a good show.It's funny how everyone thinks that Alphonse is the Full Metal Alchemist and whenever hes says no and Points to Ed they call him short,Etc..

Ack! Could have seen the dubbed movie at Anime Expo. But that day I was trying to get as many volunteer hours as I could.

I love FMA, but thought the ending was a bit of an anti-climax

Fullmetal Alchemist is probably one of the best show I ever watch!!!
I didn't see the ovie yet, I wait for the english version,,,soon soon...I haven't see the entire serie so I wait!!!

I just finished downloading it... 3 weeks ago. I'm on chapter 18th... But a friend that came to my house and put the 51st!!! Anyway... I'm still watching it and trying to memorize: "Bokura wa itsudemo sakenderu..." I love Tobira no Mukou he.
BTW. To Latino American Spanish-speakers... Don't watch the dubbed anime! A friend (Yep. The same otaku) watched it... IT SUCKS!!!

Well, I can't say much for Ed's seiyuu (Paku Romi)... Sounded like the person was talking with their mouth full the entire show...

I thought the dub was reasonbly good. :mellow:

I was really sadd when isaw the ending and i did feel abit sorry for Lust and Gluttony he was just lost with out lust. But the episode that really made me a bit sad when was Hughes died i liked him altough my Favorite character is still Edward no matter what happens i knida have asoft spot for Winery too

EDIT: Fixed your spoiler. :) -Sondagger

Thanks Sondagger!! And my apology to anyone who i spolied it for i hate when people do it too me. IM SUCH A HYPORCRITE!!!! :p

Read the tutorial in the "READ BEFORE POSTING" sticky in the Anime and Manga Forum.

I've seen the entire series, in English dub of course. I'd watch it in Japanese sub but I can't really find alot of episodes on Youtube. That's strange, since Fullmetal Alchemist has been on Adult Swim longer than Naruto, yet you can find nearly all the sub Naruto episodes on Youtube now. x_x

Anyway, there both great, but I think I like Fullmetal a tad more than Naruto. My favorite character would have to me Jean Havoc, followed closely by Greed, Lust, and Alphonse Elric.

Oh, by the way, I love Scar too. I think his characters rather sad, since he lost his brother over his obsession with bringing back his girlfriend. Poor Scar. I'm still wondering what his real name is though. -_-

My favorite episodes are 30-34 since you see bits of Greed in them, and episode 22. Of course my favorite episode would have to be episode 37 "Flame Alchemist And the bachelor Lieutenant" or something like that. Poor Jean Havoc, I don't understand why it's so hard for the poor chap to find a girlfriend. :think:

Most of all, I ADORE then openings and endings. And the theme "Brat'ja" I've been trying to lay my hands on the piano sheets and violin instrumental to the song, so far, unsuccessful. <_<

I've been reading the manga, I've only gotten up to the first five volumes, but it's good. I need to catch up on volumes six, seven, and eight.

It's sad when Ed dies. But then he comes back! :).

Ep. 13 is the best.
(Fullmetal V.S. Flame)

Damn I shouldn't have opened that spoiler. Ahh well

Something funny: In Episode 19, I tried to pause the video and read some of Marcoh's notes, I noticed that every single piece of paper was the recipe for "Breakfast Overnight French Toast"

i've seen the whole fullmetal anime series...
and the first movie. XD but the ending it wasn't good. >__<

The American dubs of anime always have ridiculous voice overs... i mean i've only seen bits of it, but in the parts i have seen, Ed sounds silly on so many levels, Lust sounds like a prostitute and Envy sounds like a 12 yr old girl with hormonal problems and who is on crack...

I think it's sad that all the Homunculus had to die.... it's racism!! I mean, yeah kill off some of them, but you know... and Envy, Gluttony and Wrath didn't even get a decent death like the other four :(

Nah, I thought Envy got what he deserved. He wanted to kill Hoenheim so bad, it ended up killing him.

Wrath and Gluttony reappear in the film, whoo.

I thought the movie was still good. ^_^

I wanna se the movie so badly, and not on youtube. I'm buying it this friday. :D YAY FOR ME :D:D:D

i never saw the whole thing...>.<...T_T
but i can tell its real cool

I wanna se the movie so badly, and not on youtube. I'm buying it this friday. :D YAY FOR ME :D:D:D

ohhh i know my mom as a suprise set it on reserve for me and i was so stoked. Your gonna like it its really good. Super good in fact!! I would tell you my opinion on the ending but i dont want ta ruin it for you.:P

I've watched the whole thing and was sad about the movie's ending. But overall I would say Full Metal Alchemist is a pretty good anime and manga

akk my best friend and i are the hugest fma fangirls u'll ever meet! we both obediently rented ALL 13 volumes, and we're about to have a movie night for the movie!

my favourite characters are Lust and Psiren. femine power!

the hugests fans ever and you only rented the DVD's? :eyebrow: I know people who bought the DVD's and a shitload of merchandise with it =p

wah... FMA is awesome eh!! :D
the movie was alright, though the ending was a bit... odd. not exactly to my liking huh lol

[how do you add a spoiler?]

FMA is indeed awesome. My friend is such a fanatic, he has all of the DVD's and the movie, and he always wants to watch Fullmetal VS Flame. Wrath was the bestest Hommunculus EVUR!

I really like this series. It's one of my favorite anime to date. I saw the ending tonight and it was sad. They went through all that just for that to happen in the end. The only problem I have w/ the series is the love interests. If you watch the series, you know who. Some people were easy to tell, some were stuck and never evolved while a few just came out of nowhere.
Rose saying "I love you" to Edward both delighted and confused me. I like the idea of them being a couple but it came kinda late and it never really explained why she loves him.

wah... FMA is awesome eh!! :D

poor roy mustang got busted in front of everyone.. hahaha

Um, I did a search on google for Future FMA seasons and...
WHY THE HELL IS ED THE NEW PRIDE!?

How in the hell did this happen? Did he die after the movie or something? And...
ENVY IS ALIVE TOO! THE OLD ENVY!

Any of you have any ideas?

A few days ago I was looking around in a FMA site... and maybe I found what you say. Are you sure that "Ed is the new pride" was an official news? I know that there's a chinese fangame with many endings, and in one ending Ed become the new Pride, maybe because in the game Al is feeling very bad and he want to save him. I suppose.

P.S. Here in Italy we are at the sixth number of the manga... and in the anime we are at the third season's beginning... I wanna see the film T.T

I'm sure of it! Here's the link(s), and there's also various photos too!:

if you scroll down, the last one show's lot's of images. Here are the text sites, one of them is in spainish though XD:

http://www.fmaplanet.com/home.php?show=bluebird

That seems like a game, not a new season. The game could follow an alternative story line instead of the original story.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluebird%27s_Illusion

It's a Dojin game. Intro (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEmz6oMPGqM). The game is no longer being sold for reasons unknown.

There's no official word on another FMA series that I'm aware of. There hasn't been a CREQ at Anidb, nor word at AnimeNFO about it either.


Welcome to the wonderful world of information gathering.

Ok, I thought it was a game, but then I saw some anime-ish pictures on one of the sites and I asumed that it was maybe a new season in Japan.

Oh i saw that before. It's one of those fangames. I think they wanted something to do in their spare time. Is it called Bluebird's Illusion?

the full metal alchemist manga version has a lot of different points to the anime version. the characters look better in the anime but the manga story is better, in my opinion.~
[i'm sorry for aru :( ]

edo and aru are probably the most strongest and tough-est brothers i have ever come across.

I finally finished the anime.

I have to say towards the beginning it was slightly boring me, but that's probably mainly because it was following the manga to closely, but once it started going way off from the manga it became so much more interesting... I loved it. Especially the later episodes. Very emotional, and it just shows you how much they truly care for each other.

I believe it is coming to Adult Swim very very soon (Early Nov 6th) for US and the dub looks alright I guess X_X Ed sounds weir-rd as.
What's wrong with Vic Mignogna (english Ed)? He did Dark in DN Angel too.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=FeUz82XMcpc

English version = HORRIBLE x_x

When put to that test, yeah, I'd perfer the subbed version, but beggars can't be choosers.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=FeUz82XMcpc

English version = HORRIBLE x_x

wow. really? i didnt know it was horrible.^.^ i guess ill try watching the japanese version then...

It's one my favourite animes. I love Roy Mustang. (Why didn't I notice this thread before...) Their image songs are great!

I absolutely ADORE Fullmetal Alchemist. :D It's by far my favorite anime series. I've seen the entire series four times (if my memory serves me correctly) :heh: so if anyone has any questions about it, I can try to help!

I'm so upset that the series ended. However, although there's no plans of a second season, the manga series does take a very different storyline at around volume 7 or 8 I believe. I can't remember the exact volume, I last read it a while ago. I highly suggest checking into them, they're much, much different from the anime. ^_^

with the manga though isnt there a manga version of the anime and the original manga?

because i only seem to be able to find the manga version of the anime.

I don't believe that there are separate manga series for FMA - one for the anime and one for the manga itself. I know that the anime series on TV did follow the manga almost completely, at least up until volume 7 or so. Some events were out of order, but the general concepts were almost identical. Later on, Arakawa gave permission for FUNimation to take a different tangent and follow a different plot so that the manga can continue while the anime ends. This was also decided because the anime was being released on TV faster than the manga volumes were able to be published.
Either way, as far as I know, there's only one manga series. Did that help clear things up at all? :)

So it appears that we will be getting a re-make of the Full Metal alchemist series that is due to premier in Japan in April of this year...

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-01-11/new-fullmetal-alchemist-anime-staff-confirmed

My question is why? (Beside the whole milking for what its got.)

Remake? It isn't a sequel? :mellow:

From what I'm getting, it's a remake. :\ http://www.hagaren.jp/

Interesting... I didn't think the original season was all that bad, maybe the ending could have been better explained, but overall it was one of the better series around back then.

I'm not sure what they're planing this time. Perhaps they want to follow the manga all the way through and make it like a 200+ ep shonen series? =p

Well, I guess it'd make sense if it was a remake. A sequel wouldn't work in any way possible since they ended it that way (and the movie's conclusion didn't help open any possible sequel either)

But if they remake it, I'd like to see the original storyline followed. They changed many things from the manga when they made it into an anime, though it was pretty good overall.

I'm getting a bit tired of all the remakes we're getting these days :(

Yea a remake would be dumb, the anime is good as it is

lol! that s the best anime i had ever watched!!
liked it!
but too bad they didnt continue it after Eric became a human.....why didnt they.....

Use spoiler tags next time, cuz u just spoiled it.... :cry::\<_<

my bad....^.^

I FREAKIN love FMA!!!!
I have all the mangas, all the episodes on DVD, and I collect the shirts and action figures and stuff!!

It was the first ever anime for me. That was the one my friend introduced me to. (which I wish it weren't, so that other anime could have a chance at being great in my world lol). I mean, c'mon. If you watch the best first, then all the rest isn't as great as they really might've been. Don't you agree?

I have yet to find another anime that thrills me as FMA, but Im still searching.
I have found worth while things (they are prolly very great in reality lol), but they still don't satisfy the taste. >.<

Oh well.
