There's some backstory you have yet to see about Father & Hoenheim.

Yeah, there's definitely a connection there and I'm interested in seeing it.

I actually realized almost as soon as I saw the new OP that Ling would turn into a Homunculus - the OP shows him with a Philosopher's Stone in his mouth. Way to spoil it, guys.

Envy's animation in the last few episodes is freaking awesome and Nightmare Fuel-errific all at the same time. It's obviously done using CG, and so fluid it's really freaky.

The person in the opening, with a Philosopher's Stone in his mouth, is not Ling... It's Kimbley. Although there is ALSO a shot of Ling with the other homunculi in the beginning of the new opening, so yeah.

D'oh... first time I've been confused between FMA characters. One thing I always liked was how physically distinct they all were. I guess with Ling's eyes open he's hard to tell the difference.

Good news — finally found Ed's songs. The bad news is that I have no idea how to create a torrent for this. If anyone wants to help me out, I'll PM it to you via Megaupload.

29 has the Xingese catfight, Knox's Moment of Awesome, a Ling scene that wasn't made too clear in the manga, and the leadup to one of the most anticipated parts of the story. More ending song transition too, nice (it lasted for quite a while — to the point there was another scene after the credits).

Is it odd that I find the mini-Gluttony coming out of Father at the end sort of cute?

Half cute (I mean, it IS Gluttony), half creepy. And that was the ending card too...

Watching it earlier, I realized they cut "If he can do it in one year, I'll do it in 6 months!". What a shame, that line was cool.

Referring to the rehabilitation necessary to use automail. I can't remember if they mentioned it in this version, but Ed was said to have rushed through the process in only a year through sheer willpower.

Annoyingly, FU Nimation has started to put ads in the middle of the episode now. And they all seem to be for COVERGIRL. Seriously? Wrong demographic much?

PikaHikariKT Since: Jan, 2001

Wha? They were fine yesterday. Unless you're talking about the episodes posted on Youtube. That was annoying in my Slayers liveblog.-_-

Funimations own video player only has ads at the beginning, although it is pretty bad, it constantly stops playing for no reason, and then suddenly refuses to play the video at all, so I have to refresh.

Their video player shows ads three time during the video, and they're all the same Cover Girl ad. It started some time this week. Maybe it's only in Canada, since Cidolfas is apparently also Canadian.

Anyway, the episode was alright. They really like doing the ending cue thing.

I guess it is.

It was done even more in the first anime until we got Winry Fanservice (Motherland and I Will).

On Funimation I only get one ad at the very beginning, and on Youtube I don't get any ads at all. Is that strange?

Why don't you just watch on a different site?

Because I like watching things legally when possible and don't like changing translations halfway through? I actually don't think it would bug me nearly as much if they had more variety in terms of ads.

Also, they were there when I watched the latest episode, but they weren't there on the two episodes of Darker Than Black I watched today.

I guess it is.

There is legal. And then there is an absence of ads and quicker uploading time.

Where, the Youtube? They've only got 27 episodes up.

I guess it is.

Sites like animecrazy.net. They get the episodes up quickly and there are no ads.

Well, as I said, I'm one of those wackos who actually does prefer to do things legally when possible.

I guess it is.

Eh, I won't argue with your methods as long as you don't argue with mine.

It'd be weird if it was only Canada... but meh. And yes, I am referring to the actual FU Nimation site, and I also much prefer to watch the videos legally with an official translation.
