FMA is also set in Fantasy Germany, for the most part, and there’s at least one portion of a flashback to a genocide that happened in the recent past in the Brotherhood adaptation where the visuals emphasize the soldiers involved having blonde hair and blue eyes, to really drive the obvious subtext home.

The first series also had way too drat much filler early on. It took something like twenty episodes to get to the Lab 5 arc (the last major point before it became absolutely irreconcilable with the manga), while Brotherhood managed to do it in eight.

To be honest, there are some elements of the first series that I preferred over Brotherhood and the manga. Namely, making the creation of homunculi tied into the sins of their creator, instead of Father just creating them to be his enforcers, giving Lust an actual character arc before she gets killed, and the emotional tension Ed and Al having to kill their mother again. I still do prefer the other versions in just about all other respects, though... in no small part because they don’t have a filler hell.

Basically, he got off pretty lightly because he only has to pay a fraction of the opposing council’s claimed attorney fees, though he got a warning that persisting with appeals could leave him more open to being liable for the full amount. So of course he’s already launched an appeal.

I do remember people here groaning when he got cast as the badass Uncle Qrow in RWBY a few years ago, and... Well, hopefully they feel vindicated in hindsight, and credit to Rooster Teeth for not just unceremoniously killing the character off or removing him from the plot.

All I remember of it (aside chuds being chuds) was that some goon over in Batman’s Shameful Secret who drew an edgy post-apocalyptic Charlie Brown comic strip wound up being one of the few people I’ve seen get a 100,000 hour probation on here as a direct result of acting like a shitbird in the thread dedicated to discussing it.

Y’know, I got around to watching the Ghost Stories dub on Crunchyroll recently. And holy gently caress, is the episode Vic voided the ghost of the week (and was the butt of some jokes) really... awkward, in light of what we all know now.

Random thought that just crossed my mind: if they ever did anything in the future with FMA (though I doubt it, since it’s a completed story), who would they recast Ed with? I know Johnny Yong Bosch replaced him as Broly, but... I dunno if he could really do a “close enough” impression of Ed.

I legitimately can’t stand Ed’s Japanese VA, so unless I went to the effort of finding a “Garfield Minus Garfield” edit of FMA, that’s kind of a no-go.

It’s not just about the money, though. Like every time I’m watching it, there’s now always the lingering background thought that this was the role that springboarded him into becoming as big of a sexpest as he did because of how insanely popular both FMAs were

He only ever really seemed to have two voices anyhow: his regular voice (Ed, Spirit, Rohan, Qrow), and “I just had rusty nails and broken glass for breakfast” (Broly, Bui)

nine-gear crow posted:To this day I'm still not sure if Steven Foster cast Vic as a pedophile ghost obsessed with teenage girls in the ADV dub of Ghost Stories as an incredible coincidence, or an attempt to try and blow the whistle or at least just style on him for being a creeper all the way back in loving 2001. They definitely had at least one joke about him being a creep in one of the last few episodes, so I’d lean towards it being intentional

His replacements for Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe and Bleach were also pretty spot-on with their imitations of his voice as well. Frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Funi used the next milestone anniversary of FMA as an opportunity to do a redub.

Jose posted:I get he's a huge pos but as someone who doesn't follow American voice actors nearly sum this up for me? He tried suing people and got.brutally owned as a result? Basically, it was an open secret for many years that he was a creep. Then an anime news site penned an article a few years ago about the accusations, his biggest employers launched their own investigations and promptly shitcanned him, and a couple of his former colleagues came out with their own stories about his misbehavior. He tried to sue them with a lawyer who very plainly had no loving idea what he was doing, he lost, and has only been compounding his losses with his failed attempts to appeal the case.

Didn’t Niosi and Flynn’s careers largely dry up after their stories broke, at least? Like, just glancing at IDBM, Flynn’s only had two roles in three years.
