So I went to the office for the purpose of streaming FMA Brotherhood eppy 10



I knew Hughes was dying this episode. I thought I was prepared. Still, I nearly cried when Roy did.

What didn't I love about this? Hughes, if you're so damn smart, why didn't you have smarts enough to let someone in on things?

Or for that matter HIDE all the obviously dangerous documents the moment someone knocked on the door to Ed's room.

I'm still holding out hope they buried rocks in your coffin and you'll be back at the end.

Roy, you poor thing. Gah there were so many gorgeous shots of Roy in this. Oh and Roy never stand next to Hughes like you did in Ishbal (yeah I know, NOT a problem any more). You look tiny that way.

Al, I love you too much too, the way you tremble at the mention of your master's name

But what I loved most was that the thing you feared most about death at Izumi's hands was you wouldn't get to have a girlfriend. Yeah, you're going to lose your virginity before Ed. As soon as that body heals up you're going to be OMG Sex!

There was one thing I didn't like was all the damn chibi shit. They seriously need to knock that the hell off.

MAES!!!! Nooooo


Mainlined more Avatar today, finished the second season and the first two eppies of the third. I was rather surprised by some of it but again the details are amazing like the fact that they knew to put a burn mark on the bottom of Aang's foot when he got hit by lightning.
[livejournal.com profile] evil_little_dog told me I'd love Zuko/Mai. she was right.

Started the Saikano anime...yeah, not impressed with either the art or the storyline.

I haven't watched the new episode yet...kind of dreading it. I cried in the first series when Elysia screamed in the cemetery not to bury daddy, he has work to do. *sniff*

be prepared to cry again because it's even more heartwrenching this time

Haven't seen eppy ten, so i can't comment on it, though I want to and I'm prolly gonna cry again...

I KNOW, RIGHT!? I love the detail in Avatar and it doesn't seem to end when the series itself ends :D

Eppy 10 is painfully good

I am literally stunned by the detail in Avatar. LIke I said, the burn mark on Aang, the hair growth, the way Zuko's eye is wooden and unexpressive because of the scarring. It would have been so easy for the creators to just go 'hey it's a kid's show so who cares' but they didn't

Awwww

EXACTLY. It's like "whoa, you guys actually thought about it!" I think Avatar is very successful.

probably one of the most successful in recent times

I love this epi too... and hated it because of course we have to loose Hughes. But he was so much cooler in his last moments than in the first one.

Roy = 5'8" So he's not that big anyway.

My dad was 5'8" though, and in his unit he was the smallest guy, but he carried the biggest gun. His was the big 12 pounder that he had to carry all over the place while everyone else had ordinary rifles. hahaha... M-16's I guess. I think Colt had bought the armalite contract on the AR-15 by then and sold them to the army as M-16's... this was back in the early 50's. I don't know what my dad's specific weapon was. I just remember him referring to it as a 12 pounder and saying he was the littlest guy with the biggest gun. (dad did not have Ed's complex at all, and by the time he died, he was probably not standing even 5'6" any more. He shrank.)

no arguement about Hughes

Yeah is that how tall Roy is? (He's shorter than me) I saw one thing that made him out at 6' and I'm thinking no way.

One of my friends' husbands had a guy even smaller in his unit but he sounded a lot like your dad, quick little bugger to hear E. talk about him

Roy did look rather small this ep didn't he? (Ed's getting a kick out of this) Al was priceless. He is definitely gonna be a ladies man. Regardless of his armor I'm surprised he never had any girls interested in him. You'd think they'd be swooning.

Roy IS rather small I think. I've always written him that way. (I suspect when Ed's done growing he'll be around Roy's size)

I think the armor intimidates them

Figures the tiniest girl in all of Xing/Shamballa falls for him. Mai has no sense of self-preservation methinks so she didn't find him intimidating. XD

I'm more of a mind that Mei has nothing going on at all but then again I don't like her and am still highly disappointed Envy didn't kill her.

Ah well there's still Ling and Ran Fan maybe they'll do it

From: [identity profile] mulzrule.livejournal.com
lol to the Ling/Ran Fan. IT's hot isn't it? I love Mai but I almost think she deserves getting whomped by Envy just because of how STUPID she was when deciding to practically giftwrap him for Xing.

Date: 2009-06-12 09:15 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com
yeah it's no secret i really hate Mei. but you're right that was a sheer act of stupid on her part. Too bad she runs so fast (well good from your pov...)

You know,

I couldn't agree more about the beautiful shots of Roy, and more more I watch ( and read...still reading the manga, 2nd time around) the more I love him. I acually just got a ring tone that is his famous 'dogs' speech, it's funny when some one calls. Poor Maes, we will miss you! Stupid Envy, Roy should have fried him, but NOOO Ed had to go all noble...

haha to the ring tone

yeah I'm still not 100% getting the interference with Envy but whatever. I guess within the next 24 hrs i'll have ch 96 to read
