* I just finished watching Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood. Do you know how long it took me to finish it? Three days. That's right, I stayed up all night and watched something like 20 episodes I was so involved in the storyline and it was worth it. I've seen stuff like Evangelion, Elfen Lied and Higurashi, read stuff like Song of Ice and Fire and 20th Century Boys yet none of them even come close to the awesomeness that is FMAB. Whats so great about it? Literally EVERYTHING, from the intelligent story and plot twists, to the creative world and its alchemy system and especially, it's likable, memorable characters. I think its one of those works of fiction which are just perfect in every way. You can make a case against many anime for being flawed but for FMAB, you can't as it is literally flawless. This was the only anime that made me cry, feel disturbed, laugh, be happy and angry all at the same time; its the only anime that made me crazy enough to jump up and clap for the characters and cheer on them outloud to win and its the only anime where I was COMPELLED to clap just because the story was so good, that whoever created it deserved a medal for creativity. Even if, and this is a huge if, even if the anime isn't the greatest work of fiction ever, it certainly is one of the greatest and the greatest work of fiction of the decade not to mention the greatest anime of all time. It is the story I always wanted to see as a kid and it finally came in the form of FMAB and it was perfect and more.
** Brotherhood is even better than the original, and that's saying a LOT. With a better ending that ends on a positive and emotional note, more character development (with almost no characters being left out- even YOKI of all people gets a crowning moment of awesome), higher quality animation, extremely well-composed (not to mention fitting) music, more intense fight scenes, several comedic scenes that don't feel out of place, and the fact it follows the manga very well, Brotherhood is a must see. It especially grows the beard during episode 19 when Roy Mustang gets one of the most memorable crowning moments of awesome of all time, and he only gets more badass from there. Even with 64 episodes, it feels like the fastest-paced show I've ever seen, which is a good reason why I'm proud to declare it my all-time favorite show.

** Seconded. I really appreciate that the writers for the show created such an original concept while still staying within the feel of the manga! What I appreciate the most though is how NEARLY EVERY SINGLE EPISODE MATTERED TO THE STORYLINE and that even the filler episodes were more entertaining than most anime series can pull off. I love both series and the manga, but the first anime will always have a special place in my heart.
