Nate RFB posted:Brotherhood is an interesting curiosity but I don't think it's actually better than the manga in any particular way. I mean it's not that well animated and there's still a decent amount of cut content that disrupts the pacing. In fact the first 20 or so episodes are almost unacceptable and require either watching the first series or reading the bloody manga anyway to get any real sense of what "actually happened". Really the best thing I can say about Brotherhood is that some of the openings are catchy.

Yeah the only really bad thing is Yoki just sort of showing up, but you don't really need to see an entire episode about it to get what's going on there.

yeah 2003 tried to build up envy as this big villain (because he killed hughes i guess) but he's a lot more interesting when he spends half the series trapped in a glass jar doing basically nothing.

Wrath doesn't fit him, but it works amazingly well considering who kills him in the manga/brotherhood.

I like how the 03 anime and the manga went in completely different directions with the religion thing. 03 was pretty 'heh, where's your god now, dad.' but the manga was more agnostic. Maybe even quasi-religious - it seemed to posit that there was a god, but that you didn't necessarily have to worship him.

Arakawa mentioned that she actually went around and talked to a lot of former soldiers, which probably has a lot to do with it.

yeha, the first ~10 or so episodes of brotherhood are basically just a recap of the early chapters with some weak humor thrown in.

The fourth ending is also good. Those intro chords are the best way to end an episode. "Behold - our immortal army!" NEOW NEOOOOW, NEOW NEOW, NEOOOOOOOW

Nah, brotherhood's pretty much just the manga.
