Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

Apparently, I’m just too hyped that I need to do this post.

I don’t even know macamana aku boleh contain this excitement since days ago. Maybe because I finished the series today?

But this entry starts because I wanna rant about the OST…hahahaha. First dengar the song few days back. But let's start with the series first alang-alang dah taip entry so that I can tag this under ‘review’ and ‘what to watch’ hahahah….

FMA ni consider one of aku punya top all-time favorite manga. I’ve been reading it for I don’t even keep count how many times. Re-read at least once a year? Last was masa end of 2019.

But, DESPITE FMA BEING ONE OF MY FAVOURITE MANGA EVER, I NEVER WATCHED FMA: BROTHERHOOD 😱

I watched Fullmetal Alchemist, the anime series.

I watched Fullmetal Alchemist, the live action.

So, how come aku tatau the existence of FMA: Brotherhood?

Maybe sebab aku terlalu kecewa ngan the first series and bila tengok live action pon hampeh, I gave up. I don’t know. Lagipon aku memang tend to not watch the anime IF I read the manga because I don’t want to compare.

FMA: Brotherhood is considered accurate compared to the other two *palm-claps and throwing daggers to both.

I can say it’s accurate with the details and the storyline, setakat yang aku ingat – if you know what I mean. Almost all the scenes are identical to FMA’s manga.

The only scene yang aku still takleh accept wasn’t included is this one scene where masa tu Hohenheim was at Trisha’s grave and Ed pon heading there, with his ponytail hair. Well, so does Hohenheim.

And we know how Ed is with his father. Right when Hohenheim tegur dia that they have same hairstyle, Ed ikat ponytail dia jadi braid right away dengan bengangnya…hahahaa..andddddd, Hohenheim comments on how Ed looks exactly like him when he was young. Lol.

This is one of my favorite scenes. I don’t even know why. Maybe it's just fun to see these two bickers hahahaha...But, in Brotherhood, scene ni di adjust sikit. They still had their heated banter but, they removed that ponytail-braids scene.

And, the way the scene was portrayed is kinda heavy and not fun, light like the manga version.

This is how it was in the anime version 👇

And dalam versi anime ni, what he says can be interpreted differently.

Dalam manga, it can be the hairstyle, and it could be perangai hot-headed Ed tu.

Dalam anime, it looks like what he means is solely perangai sembereno Ed tu. Well, I don't know..hahahaha..

But, all in all, I enjoyed the series.

Especially season 5.

Because the series started getting real serious.

Happy ending 😍

And they have one real good OST in season 5 *screamsssssss.
