late night thoughts

i had some but making exams killed them

Does anyone know a good way to get ticks out of your house? Yes, i have to frontline the cats (i just DID and it's not been three weeks and it's doing squat) They're everywhere. I've never seen anything this horrid.

a2zmom has an interesting post about other possibilities for the Amazon disaster




um...okay, I liked it but now THIS felt rushed. It's like they tried to cram an entire volume into one show.

I didn't care for how the kids were animated, especially side views

I also have no idea why they felt it necessary to change the history on one significant point. Why make Winry's parents still alive when Trisha died?

Now what did I like? The meeting with the gate was very neat

I did like that they put in the actual state alchemy exam, though I wish they wouldn't have shortcut around the fact Ed noticed Roy didn't give a rat's ass that he tried to stab the Fuhrer and calling Roy out for not hiding it better. Loved the expression on Ed's face a) when he realized the Fuhrer had used his sword without him even seeing (Bradley IS cool that way ) b) when he got his new name, now that's a face to fear

I loved the Riza and Winry scene. (not too fond of Riza's VA though) Also happy with the Ed/Win moments.

And Roy's animation is gorgeous. He very much looks Xingese now though (yes I always thought he was but now he looks it even more)
