Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 40 Reaction

Comments

If you notice the people of Xerses all had golden eyes, just like ed and alphonse. They are the only ones other than father and hoenheim who have gold eyes, they are literally the last of the people of xeres.

JPShadow

Big Sig with the bum rush for his lady though🐻🐻🐻

Dr. Banner

yeahh please help me to make then watch this hahaha

Vicente de Paulo Guimaraes Priante

To Your Eternity

Die, or get rich trying

Yesss berserk is amazing!!! You guys could react to the show since it covers the first arc and then read the manga after, that’s what I did and I think most people do!!

BNichols1235

I already recommend hxh in a previous reaction lol

Gon Freecs

that OVA is so different from the real show that it almost looks like a horny fanfic. Please do not judge the series based on the OVA. I won't say that Kaguya has zero fanservice, but it's close to zero. And I guarantee the female characters are just as well written as the male ones.

Raziel_BBT

I second this.

Rigo Rojo

If they will ever watch TPN, then only the very good first season. The second season was just unbearable. As if after Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone they decided to tell the 6 other books in one movie and cut out everything about Voldemort and Dumbledore and keep the age of the characters fixed at 12.

Robert H.

Yeah, you're right, but this OVA is very different, I don't even know why they did it to be honest

Gabriel Almeida

Good to know. And you're right about the canon and non-canon, of course, but if an OVA looks like that, the regular show must be at least somewhat similar, or so I think.

Robert H.

the OVA is nothing like the anime, you can watch it without fear, you don't judge the canon for what is not canon.

Gabriel Almeida

I haven't watched it yet. But the thing is, I always do a "fanservice check" before I watch an anime (I sort of watch a few scenes on YouTube to make sure I don't get upset the whole time about how women are portrayed in the story), and when I saw a scene from the OVA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJwQpgTgnr4), I pushed the anime very far down on my watch list.

Robert H.

noo they ONLY watched shonen, make then watch your lie in april, is romance and comedy and drama, is really small and beautiful

Vicente de Paulo Guimaraes Priante

The show I think you'd like the most and has a great focus on character development would be Haikyuu. Vinland Saga is probably the next best thing for you guys to watch as well, some amazing character development in that. And the historic aspect of it is nice. HunterXHunter I love and I can see you guys loving, but the two I mentioned before are shorter but very dense. I would suggest Vinland Saga first as the new season is going to be coming out in a few months. Haikyuu will be having having 2 movies come out next year.

Baz Mehdi

Oh hell yeah especially now that season 3 is done

Brogan

You got my vote, been a long time since I've felt that level of depression

Brogan

The Promised Neverland. No contest. Intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izIS1nzRqCc&ab_channel=Anicrad

Orr Malus

Kaguya Sama: Love is war!!!!

Gabriel Almeida

Violet is such a great rec for them, good call

Conroy

Recommend something you think that Milena and Lola would like. I can't see them enjoying something with so much sexual violence.

april 🍏

I disagree, for me the 97 anime was a great introduction to the story...i was hooked and thats what Made me want to read the manga

DrLAING

Oh yeah for sure. I am constantly saying to myself "I would have LOVED this when I was 17" lol. I'm gonna keep pushing for now since there are good qualities to the show, but yeah. Definitely something I would have loved in high school more than now

Mahni Alizadeh

That said, here are my rec's for a short anime if not Berserk: Cowboy Bebop, or Violet Evergarden. Bebop gives you the found family stuff y'all love so much plus it's a big stylistic shift from the 2010's anime you guys are used to. Violet Evergarden is very emotionally poignant and will force tears from you almost every episode, but it's also such a sweet and hopeful show even with all the tears. Plus it has the added benefit of being absolutely stunningly beautiful to look at. Can't go wrong with either of these shows IMO but I don't think Bebop get's enough love so I really want to emphasize that one for yall.

Mahni Alizadeh

they already said they'd do HxH next year plus it seems like people are recommending shorter shows lol

Mahni Alizadeh

people are recommending Berserk and while it's one of my favorite stories of all time, I think watching the anime instead of reading the Manga is a huge disservice to your experience. The anime is fantastic, but it was so much more meaningful to me after reading the manga. This is because of how much context the anime is forced to cut due to censorship. A lot of things that are explicitly shown in the manga are merely implied in the anime. Sometimes that's a good thing (one specific character comes to mind that I'm very glad was cut), but for the most part I found the anime to be so much more impactful to me going into it having read the golden age arc in the manga. But if you ladies watch it, you'll fall in love. It has everything you could want: found families, tragedy, romance, and incredible incredible characters with beautiful flaws and strengths. Just an absolutely wonderful story.

Mahni Alizadeh

I'm afraid you're spot on, it doesn't get better from here. If you want to feel like you've watched the whole show I'd perhaps recommend finishing season 1, but if you want to drop it now I don't blame you. It's a show a LOT of people including myself watched when they were a lot younger, so I imagine that has a lot to do with why so many people speak of it so highly. But I'd say the biggest draw is the power fantasy aspect of imagining yourself as the MC, which for younger people is a big draw. But for those looking for top notch writing and character development it falls flat imo

Kya Colosseum

OK I'm about 15 episodes into Code Geass and I'm just... not really impressed? I don't want to drop it because I personally think its stupid to judge something after 15 episodes but IDK, I'm not really liking the way the themes are presented, and i really didn't enjoy how everything was handled with Shirley and that whole mini arc. Does it get better from there or is it a "if you didn't like the beginning you're not gonna like the rest of it" kind of situation? There are definitely aspects of it that I like but it really is not on the level of AoT or Fmab so far, and not even close to Monster or Berserk in terms of writing, character work, or themes. I will keep watching because I don't believe in judging things this early, but while it has some very cool elements, I'm just a little disappointed so far.

Mahni Alizadeh

idk i feel like berserk is best experienced as a manga. I watched the anime after finishing golden age and it was a really good experience, but I don't think it would have been the same if I just watched the anime without having read the manga first

Mahni Alizadeh

Gon Freecss recommending Dororo - Sad

Malik

@Kya Colosseum Since it has been recommended to them so often lately, I had started a rewatch and I couldn't agree more. Great show. It's sort of the child of Attack on Titan and Death Note, but just took way too much from Misa Amane. There really are way too many scenes where women or high school students are reduced to her body. It feels like only the female characters are showering and that every episode. I especially hate the shots when female characters are in their "titans" (https://www.kapwing.com/videos/62f9295f180e8900d7e28a03). Code Geass is one of those anime that I wish would get a remake in a few years that cuts out such elements. They really add zero to the main story.

Robert H.

I was wondering how General Armstrong would get away with killing Raven when I watched this episode, but her just saying "Yes I killed him, and I would do it again. Now give me his job" never would have occurred to me.

Jacob

I disagree

edgard

It's good yeah, has a great ending and a stellar first season. But the level of fanservice in that show is something else entirely, and season 2 for the most part is a complete downgrade compared to the first season.

Kya Colosseum

Omg yes you should watch spyxfamily. Ive been thinking you guys would love it since it first aired :) Only 12 episodes are out. More episodes drop in october.

Kaycee

man these subtitles ruin so much

Shain Sellah

Please, I would love to discuss it with you guys as well, but don't spoil it for Lola and Milena! They read the comments!!!

Nikodem

Code Geass is amazing

edgard

NEXT EP 41....THE HYPE IS UNREAL....CANT WAIT FRO MY TEARS

Moon

You should watch FLCL only 6 episodes I think it’d hilarious to see your reactions

Will Watches

I recommend BERSERK, I assure you that it is an experience you will not forget easily ... and I think it is the most mature anime out there

Friend

hi girls! i would recommend demon slayer and vinland saga. they're both wonderful (and popular) animes with new seasons releasing in 2023.

zontzooit

I'd be really curious to see how they react to berserk, especially a very nice scene from the anime.

Friend

please react to DORORO, you wont regret it (just 24 episodes, a lot of crying, children, cutenest and action) it's a very underrated anime

Gon Freecs

But could you imagine Van's all consuming fear he must have had when he first learned he was going to be a father? Truly sad.

Nyeisha Melvina Clark

yessss

BNichols1235

hi please react to Berserk anime from 97 the story is just an amazing thing to experience

DrLAING

You have to watch the movies first. Here is the order: Psycho-Pass (2012) Psycho-Pass 2 (2014) Psycho-Pass Movie (2015) Psycho-Pass Sinners of the System Case 1: Tsumi to Bachi (2019) Psycho-Pass Sinners of the System Case 2: First Guardian (2019) Psycho-Pass Sinners of the System Case 3: Onshuu no Kanatai ni (2019) Psycho-Pass 3 (2019) Psycho-Pass 3: First Inspector (2020) In my opinion, the movies and season 3 are better than season 2, but nothing comes close to the first season. The villain and chemistry with Kougami was just too good.

Robert H.

Would you say that the other seasons are worth the watch? I loved season 1, the second I felt like it was a bit off idk why tho... so is the third one worth it?

Leo

Psycho Pass season 1 is really good. In addition, Psycho Pass also has the advantage that you can just stop after each season and movie. The story always ends a bit open, which means there is no real ending. In my opinion, the crime cases at the start can be problematic. It heavily thematizes Japanese work culture, gaming culture, cosplay culture and more, which sometimes seems a bit strange, since you're not so familiar with it in the rest of the world or in Europe.

Robert H.

Maybe check out Psycho Pass Season 1, even if it's on your own time, it's a great sci-fi that is worth a watch. Also, Hyouka is pretty easy going, but has some nice character stories wrapped up in a mystery/slice of life type mix.

Spilled Wine

To clear something up, the "Master" of slave 23 was an alchemist and he did some weird alchemy stuff using his slaves blood and that created the dwarf in the flask. So "Father" was created using Hohenheims blood by that alchemist guy. ALSO, our boys were born from a philosophers stone: clearly destined for greatness/their own tv show.

DougRaw

Your lie in april has only 20 episodes

Vicente de Paulo Guimaraes Priante

Your lie in april

Vicente de Paulo Guimaraes Priante

Berserk is my all time favorite story, but I don't know if it's for them. Unless somehow if they decide to react to the manga, but I don't see that happening.

Raziel_BBT

also, i forgot to mention it but yeah, spy x family was recommended to you by a lot of people. it is quite different from what you've watched so far and it just started so it only has 12 episodes if i'm not wrong, the other half of the season being released some time soon i guess.

sand_fl

since everyone is posting their recommendations again i'm not sure if you'll see this but i guess i'll give it a shot the show has 64 episodes yeah, that was not pride, i always think about him as the dwarf in the flask, but i guess that after 40 episodes of calling him father it will be difficult to call him by other name and lastly hohenheim isn't the one that 'gave' him the blood. i mean, yes, it was his blood, but the one that did the "experiment" or whatever was his master (as in the alchemist who owned him) that later also became his master in terms of teaching. so while it was born from hohenheim's blood, he was not responsible for his creation per se. i have to say that thanks to your reactions i've also watched a couple of shows i really like that i wouldn't have watched if it wasn't for you. the expanse, for example. and i wasn't planning to watch the new GOT show because the original disappointed me to no end but i guess i'll have to make the effort 😂

sand_fl

lol, he's not a pedo, he's aroused by the idea of fighting strong people. He doesn't care the age, gender, etc of that person. And he's not sexually attracted to Gon at all. Not in the way you implied anyway.

MaxVSTheGames

I mean Berserk 1997, which does not have the best animation but I felt was great nonetheless

Malik

Hisoka is one of the main protagonists and he's an allegory of the devil. He reflects back whatever it is others fear/hate/love most in order to snare them into his trap. Only one character saw him as a pedo thus Hisoka only behaved like a pedo in his presence. The idea of the character is to illicit a strong response whether good or bad.

Orr Malus

I would so be in favor of Spy x Family, not only because it's just so damn good, but also because it gets away from the typical shonen action anime. Rainbow Nisha, Haikyuu, Violet Evergarden, Zankyou No Terror and Odd Taxi would also be good shows for them.

Robert H.

Avatar is one of if not their favourite show, and that has a father who mutilates his son with fire for an embarrasing moment. Think they'll be fine hahaha

Kya Colosseum

*Beserk Manga. The Beserk anime was canceled due to heavy criticism from fans.

Robert H.

Dwarf in the flask is not pride, they are father. Pride is the FIRST homunculous MADE by father. I wish the subtitles were a bit less spoilers, Selim was revealed to early in the shadows when he was confronting Riza, the subtitles said [Hoenheim] instead of slave 23, but everything cant be perfect. This was a great episode and a great reaction. Excited for the rest as we come the end!!

Jey Siksa

Demon Slayer and Spy x Family are my top two picks for a reaction, especially since both are dropping a new season soon

Seth

Uncomfortable scenes .... they have watched breaking bad, attack on titan and death note pls shut ur stupid ass up

20 16

They mentioned in the episode that an alchemist brought the homunculus into existence using hohenheim's blood. They don't mention the alchemist's name but is the guy that told hohenheim "congratulations, you are now an alchemist"

Link

Is it bad that I would love if they reacted to berserk

Malik

I think that seeing children suffer is a regular theme in the shows they watch xD

Nikodem

understandable, thanks for the clarification! good day

Malik

I’m not saying they shouldn’t watch it I’m just saying I hope they don’t get uncomfortable and dislike the show for those reasons knowing how much they love kids.

Jay

Also their isnt "some pedo characters" their is a single weird character who I wouldnt consider a pedo, weird, for sure, but I dont think this is a good reason to not watch the show, IMO

Malik

And? I don't get your point. It's such a shallow take on the show. If you seriously don't get why somebody who loved FMAB, AoT and Avatar would appreciate HxH, then I don't know what to tell you. They loved Breaking Bad, they love Better Call Saul and those shows both have some very disturbing moments. They loved Game of Thrones and it had fucking Ramsay Bolton.

Nikodem

Because it is top tier anime, that is all

Malik

Pedo scenes aren’t for everyone bud some people find them so disturbing to the point where it ruins the show for them. I’m just hoping that’s not the case for Both of them.

Jay

those scenes are SUPPOSED to be weird, because its coming from a weird character...its not like the show is saying its ok. so they should only watch shows with no problematic elements? lol guess they shouldnt have watched breaking bad. they might start doing meth now!

gloomi

Sadly no one recommends it EVER !! and Its SOO good definitely a show these two girls would love.

Jay

Your Lie in April is SO good and so under-reacted. That show is what got me back into anime.

april 🍏

Cause best boys. Better than the DS and 86 recommendations

Unholy

I personally recommend Fruits Basket (the 2019 version of course).

Hanan from Math pi Hanan

I feel like they would like the anime “your lie in April” a lot

Jay

Don’t get why people want these girls to watch hunter x hunter it’s a good show I get it but it’s got some pedo characters and uncomfortable pedo scenes.

Jay

ITS HERE!!
