Fullmetal Alchemist, ep. 43-51 (intial reaction)

[oyceter]

GIANT SPOILERS

This is totally an initial reaction because I am really not coherent right now, largely because I spent the last episode sobbing. Oh, my boys. I was so scared something like this would happen, but at least they're still there and still looking for each other.

*sobs*

Is the movie worth watching?

But oh, my god.

I really disliked the movie, although to be fair I did see a rough fansub of footage taped by a handheld camera in a theatre. >.> I bounced and squeed over seeing the boys in motion again, but that was about all I got out of it.

Hee, that's never a good way to watch! I think I'm just goign to see for myself, but also because I miss the Elrics so much and am pretty much willing to see anything. Ergo, I may have yet another series of manga to buy now...

It really wasn't the best exposure, but it mananged to put me off bothering to see it again--and given how excited I was to see it in the first place, that's saying something. :/

I picked up all of the out-so-far English manga last summer. It's adorable, and I'm liking it a lot. ^_^ I do think this is a story that fundamentally wanted to be animated, though. I'm quite annoyed at FUNimation releasing it over so many dvds, esp. right after they put Furuba out as 26 eps. on four discs and *proved* that they could be reasonable and just chose not to be with FMA. *grr*
