The fact that you see Ed actually go for a kill shot just shows how much he truly cared and how angry he was.
The one time that I remember him actually going for the kill was here at the end going after 'Father'.
Since everyone else has already commented on the whole Greed/Father situation, I just wanted to say: Shout out to that one Briggs soldier that had the balls to just up and shoot God in the head. Briggs men truly are the GOAT.
Indeed. Just a nameless, anonymous Briggs soldier, who straight up shot the most powerful character in the show in the head without zero warnings or hesitation, saving both Ed and Izumi. Respect.
Greed: yes, this is what I want
Father, few episodes ago: everything you wanted, I wanted first
Precisely. So sad that, while Wrath and Greed (and even, to a lesser extent, Pride, Gluttony, and even Envy) came to realize and accept their true desires, Father never did.
@@Ryan_gogaku don't forget lust, she died admiring her enemy. lust or admiration are both foundational qualities for starting relationships. and it was the first part of father to die.
It is so good that the first shot against Father is from a nameless soldier. It isn't Ed or Roy leading the charge, it's humanity itself rejecting Father.
FMAB is the anime that I showed to my middle-aged father to get him into watching anime with my sister and I. I will NEVER forget the look on his face when he saw Mei make that circle. He looked right at me and said "No, no, no." Like five times, he wasn’t having it XD
The moment when "Fullmetal Alchemist" OST starts playing after Mei shoots her blades never fails to give me goosebumps...
Imagine how much you gotta piss of Ed for him to go against his oath not to kill. He’s holding nothing back now!
Also “FUCK HIM UP!!!”
I like how Greed's true desires were visible from the very beginning. Even Greed 1.0 was surrounding himself with people. Moreover, they were people who likely shared the need for friends, given their inhuman bodies.
Also, the details. Long nails on the returned arm, because of course. Also, Al's truth and Ed's truth being in the same void because they are connected (as explained when Ed hypothesized how Al's is basically draining his sleep and nutrition)
god only 2 episodes left. this series feels like it went by in a flash, but that is what happens when a series is this good.
"May,"
"No"
"I need a favour"
"No you don't"
I felt that in my soul.
Remember what Father said couple episodes ago: "Everything [Greed] might happen to desire, I can assure I desired it first"
Bruh, the flashback edit talking about Al sent me. You were right about everything, but at what cost?
Let's give massive props to Lt. Carly. He was able to plan and organized a counter attack and redeploy his troop from perimeter and holding positions to the central bailey with heavy weapons in less than 10 minutes. Magical instant travel aside, that is a very capable officer and needs to be promoted tomorrow. General Armstrong, you trained him well.
Greed is absolutely one of my favorite characters, and his admittance in this episode always gets me super emotional. Love this show, and these last few episodes especially are really phenomenal.
“So, your soul has entered you. But will he be coming back for you?”
“He won’t. That’s the end.”
god, i really hope we get an almost uncut (if not completely uncut) reaction to the bloopers. i’ve been waiting for it since the openings reaction LOL
The funniest part. They don't outdo this episode with another fight. They outdo it with unbelievably good character writing
There's just this certain charm, atmosphere, soul (??) to fmab that really pushes it to the top for me. There's tons of good anime, but this one connects with me in a way no other show has. I don't really even have the words to describe it. It really feels like Hiromu didn't just write a great story, she really poured her honest heart into.
Bro be predicting shit and then get mad when it happens 😭😭 I can’t I love these reactions
The voice acting in this show is just so freaking good.
21:18 - Alphonse: Mr. Truth, I don't feel so good...
"Maybe this isn't gonna play out how it seems like it will."
FMAB: *plays out exactly how he thinks it will*
Great analysis as always!
ed going hand to hand with a god maybe the most badass thing in this show
I'd say it's more like Ed kicking the shit out of him
I'm still bitter about the Patrons excluding Ed from their list of coolest characters 😄
Both brothers promised Al's body that they'd be back for him. Here Al makes good on his part of it. 😢
Don't know if someone mention it, but do you remember what Father said to Greed a few episodes ago? That he knows all what Greed wants because he wanted it first. So that means that all that Father wanted since the beginning was friends and a family. Like Hohenheim said too, he created the Homunculi as his childs and make them call him "Father" because he wanted it, in contradiction to his ideal to become something far from a human.
In the end he was just lying to himself.
Potentially, yes. Another possibility is Greed learned it through his own experiences while using people. His original chimera group was probably him taking advantage of them initially, only to find he cared for them later. Either way is possible how I see it.
You are right there are rules to equivalent exchange, that's what stops Ed and Al from just doing basic alchemy to get their bodies back since their bodies were taken as a toll to the truth. Ed couldn't just restore his arm through normal means because his arm was taken to exchange pulling Alphonse's soul out of the gate and bonding it to the armor. But as Alphonse stated he's just reversing the deal. He's putting his soul back in order to give Ed the price he paid to pull his soul out in the first place. So that tracks with the law of equivalent exchange. And in a really funny cosmic way Al basically just asked for a refund lol
Did any one else hear "F him up!" In their head 😂
me while editing this LMAO
OK I tried writing this before but I think something might’ve happened to it but
I like how Ed said basically the same thing he said to cornello to father here
Although They’re not the same in the English dub, but they are the same in the manga and anime (Japanese dub and English sub)
“Come here, you third-rate. I’ll show you the difference between you and me.”
(Or somewhat similar)
In the manga, the first time is the end of the first chapter, and the second time is the end of the chapter before the last (signifying the series is about to end).
Ahhhhhhhhh So glad I've been here since the beginning. I love Greed so much, he's gotta be one of my favorite characters. He has a heart made fullmetal. :)
"how can they outdo that?" i haven't subscribed to your patreon but im guessing at the finale episode you went "they outdid that" xD
15:45 this was the moment he knew... he shouldn't have talked.
seeing this episode makes me so emotional. each time. each. fucking. time. we all felt you.
An arm for a soul. A soul for an arm
I’d say FMAB and FMA 2003 together make a perfect experience watching, they contrast each other perfectly and at the same time complement each other because of that. One is story driven and the other a character analysis
Greed admitting he really wanted to be loved, while watching father is getting murdered by a teenager. what could father have been if he ever had the courage to tell himself the truth? is that the real theme of this story? we are our own worst enemy, every time.
I watched series as good as Monster and Neon Genesis Evangelion before FMAB, as well as very iconic series such as Attack On Titan, Death Note and Hunter X Hunter, but right after I finished FMAB last year it became my favorite anime. I wouldn't necesary say it's the best because there are too many good stories out there and not everyone will be touched by the story of the Elric brothers, but men, what a great show FMAB is. Episode 63 is my favorite episode of the show, and probably my favorite episode of any show.
I really need to get to monster/eva, never seen them. Monster in particular
@@CastSenpai some part feels a bit long, but you'll definitely enjoy it! (Monster)
every attack does something....in this show's world most of all. No attack is shrugged off 100%. It takes an equivalent amount of energy to neutralize or recover from the force of an attack or blow...and Father is not exempt from this rule. While some form of God lives in him, it can only be held in place by a proper amount of human souls, and while it's never truly detailed, in time these will burn out as well since they must be consumed as energy to exert the force required to restrain it in a physical body....a thing which itself decays over time as mere matter. Everything requires the use of Father's stone.
I love this episodes example of how strong the Briggs soldiers are as a unit. General Armstrong trained them to ensure that, regardless of what might happened to any officer, they can continue to function as a strong, lethal unit. General Armstrong can step back and trust her men to finish the job
Greed was never an evil character. Selfish maybe, but he was always a good person deep down. One of the best examples that didn't make it into the anime was when he first kidnapped Al and demanded to know how his soul was bonded, but when Al told him Ed did it and that was wasn't around (he had to get recertified as a state alchemist in central) Greed's immediate reaction was to back off, ask his team if he was insensitive, and apologize for Al's loss thinking Ed had passed away. He didn't even bother thinking about how he had lost his key to supposed immortality and was more worried about this kid losing family. Greed valued those sorts of connections more than anything else, which is why he does upon regaining his memories is go after Bradley for killing his friends. His greed made him able to accept people with nothing else and no where to go, which is just like Ling. They really were a perfect match.
To quote greelin back in resembool, "Greed may not be good, but it's not so bad, either. You humans think greed is just for money and power! But everyone wants something they don't have" greed truly was the embodiment of this
Ed's line at the end is similar to what he said to Cornello in episode 3. Even Father is treated the same as Cornello.
They both claimed to be God, to have achieved everything, while knowing nothing.
Fun fact, in the final scene of this episode, right before it ends, the manga has ed say a line that is almost identical to a line that he says towards the conclusion of his first fight in the series which acts as a really nice nod to how this all began
14:27 "oh god" literally 😂
It always rains in my room when Al sacrifice himself for some reason
5:20 That's not creation, its regurgitation.
One of my favorite anime tropes is when a group has to work together to fight someone/thing way way more powerful than them. So good.
One of the many things I love about this show: people matter, even in the final battle. There are a lot animes that go on about the power of friendship and comradery; yet in the end, only the main character, and maybe his rival, are really able to fight the Big Bad. Typically, everyone else is reduced to either being cheerleaders or are incapacitated.
Not so in Fullmetal Alchemist. If Ed and Al had tried fighting Father on their own, they would have absolutely crushed in an instant. It truly is a group effort to take down Father: soldiers, alchemists, chimeras, ninjas, homunculi, etc, all attacking with everything they've got.
I absolutely love the one spinning shot around father while the music is swelling, so epic
The Elric brothers' bond and faith in each other get me every time.
Btw just curious, are you planning on watching FMA03? Cuz I just remembered this beautiful OST called Bratja (means brothers in Russian). There's also an English version sung by Vic Mignogna (Ed's VA). So you can check it out if you wanna get emotional again lol :')
This final battle was great
Really hyped for your reaction of the last 2 episodes. Glad your doing 2 in 1 so I dont have to wait 2 weeks :)
I dislike the "shouldn't the reverse be true?" wording there. Isn't it more a matter of cancelling the original soul transmutation so Ed gets his "money" back? That would make the toll a lot less random than if Al really performed a new transmutation.
Those were the Briggs soldiers in white that were rushing in
i notice that you like kimblee's believe or the way hi thinks so if you check opening 3 at 0:47 you see exactly the last scene of kimblee at his final act
The "Our Father" thing is probably because of how they refer to him in Japanese. they call him "Otou-sama"(the way you would refer to your honored father) instead of just "Chichi"(a father, any father)
Chichi is not a term of address, you don't call your father that.
@@csenge1157 Yes, that's what I said
22:17 Ohh how true that statement is ;)
Just a little bit of correction those guys are from brigs *sorry I don't know if its correct spelling but they are not central soldiers. You can identify them for their uniforms.
I actually like your reactions and theory. Peace!
in this episode of full metal, ed beats up a weak old homeless man as the crowd cheers him on. violence hell yeah
Loving these videos
Geez, your almost in the end!!
And all caught up, on this reaction
I've seen that you have a Haikyuu reaction so I'll watch that later
Yep Greed isn't just for things of status and power, but anything that can be 'treasured' or desired, which includes genuine bonds and relationships with others.
Thay epesode is HYPE
Did you ever read metaphysics? Once you do, FMAB's god makes a lot more sense
I've noticed the moon keyring on your microphone. Will you be reacting to Soul Eater by any chance?
Nah, it was the first anime I ever watched a long time ago. One of my fav styles overall, lot of my channel branding around it actually:)
@@CastSenpai mine too. There are hardly any reactions to Soul Eater on here.
OUR FATHER
FMA is now a communist anime
are you an entp?
I think last time I checked I was INFP.
8th
I know I'm 4 months late to this party
but can we please take into account the sheer ANGER, hate and Adrenaline running through eds body in order from him to rip a literal piece of fucking Rebar out of the concrete and through his arm and continue using it like his Bicep isn't in absolute Tatters?
