Mustang doesn't even know what's going on he just wants to be apart of something so he just screams FULLMETAL XD
"WOO HOO! GO, FULLMETAL!"
Hawkeye: "Colonel...you're facing the wrong way."
Mustang "FULL METAL!!!"
Hawkeye "you are facing the wrong way sir..."
Hohenheim: "FUCK HIM UP!!"
Logan Young that's obvious but the dialogue was still funny
Don’t ruin the moment Hawkeye
He’s a man he’s good with directions
"wait did he gets his arm? and his leg?"
Actually, Armstrong's platform was an ionian column. Architecture has been passed down his line for generations.
'-'*
Do you mean Ionic
OMG
Everyone yelling Edward name gives me chills
KICK HIS ASS
Best line lol
FIGHT EDWARD ELRIC!
Fullmetal!
Alex Alexander FUCK HIM UP
Greed has always shown a desire to be surrounded by people, to have companions at his side. The original Greed had an entire crew that considered him their friend and was so loyal they'd die for him (and a reminder of their deaths is what pushed Greedling to leave Father's service again and attack Wrath). Then when he meets up with Ed and the Chimeras, he has them "work for him" but all that really amounts to is traveling with him. Hell, Ling impressed Greed initially with a desire to protect all the people he cares about, and Ling was the one to call him out in his actions after he killed Bido. It's only now that Greed himself is truly realizing what this means, and what he wants - *has* wanted, all along.
QueenInTheNorth I think out of all the Homunculi, aside from Envy, Greed is definitely one of the more well-written and well-developed ones.
I dunno, I think Wrath is a fair contender for that as well. He has a duality that's always been super interesting imo.
QueenInTheNorth Oh yeah! :P
Yeah, in Greed's case I think it was more than just Dwarf's avarice that he embodied, but rather the part of Dwarf that pondered and wished to understand humanity and their interpersonal units and why they'd willingly limit themselves to relying on and being close to others. Hi simply didnt manifest in a corrupt fashion like it did with Dwarf since it didnt become envy and hate for what he doesnt have and cant understand, as those went elsewhere.
All the Homunculus have some deep desire specifically reflects their nature that is particularly hard to achieve due to that nature. Greed's is friendship because you can technically strive for anything, but companionship is something that you cannot force, it requires reciprocation which is very hard for someone greedy.
I love the idea that what Greed really wants is fulfillment, which he finds through others. 'Cause it's like, that's what Greed really is. He was just trying to fill a hole with anything he could grab.
I almost read “I love the idea that what Greed really wants is Fullmetal” 💀💀
I’ve always loved the shot of Al sacrificing his soul for Ed’s arm. It symbolizes so much from sacrifice, pain, loss, love, compassion, etc.
That and it’s just a plain amazing shot.
Side note, when Ed gets his arm back at 10:30 you can see how his finger nails are longer on the arm he just got back because they were never cut since he lost his arm.
you'd think they'd be even longer than that after like five years...
Ciaran Smith that’s what I was thinking
Ciaran Smith but the growth of your nails are changed by how much you eat and hygiene
And Ed only got like half the nutrients, right?
@@Omnipotentmonkey I mean,,, he probably didn't get much calcium
Hawkeye and Mustang - badass duo!!
I love how Al shielded May just as Hohenheim shielded Ed and Izumi. Like father, like son!
Al sacrificing himself to save Ed and seeing his armor finally disappearing after rejoining with his body tears me up every time. The music just made everything all the more emotional for me.
Everyone cheering on Ed was so heartwarming to watch! What really gets me is Mustang probably didn't know what was happening, but he still yelled out in support alongside the others.
Greed finally realizing what he wanted all along was just beautiful. I can see all of this being a bit corny, but it sure as hell was well-executed.
Definitely one of my favorite episodes if not THE favorite. I guess the last three kind of all go together, but this one, with everyone screaming Ed's name, every character we ever met fighting against father is just masterful.
I really hope that they watch the bloopers once they're done, because as epic as it is, I can not watch Hohenheim scream Ed's name without hearing FUCK HIM UP!!!!!
I just now noticed how the metal around Al's seal was cracked. If he didn't sacrifice himself at that moment, one more hit, even a single movement, could've broken the seal and erased him forever.
Scrumshiz yup! i also just realized it after Calvin point that out
10:10 "Mr. Elric....I dont feel so good..."
Matthew Nash
Infinity war 😏
funniest thing is that watching that scene in IW, all i could think about was FMAB and how it looked so similar
Damn, you beat me to it.
Jae Key
Me too
TOO SOON TOO SOON
Just an alchemist...just a human...with his bare hands! Giving a god a good ol ' asswhooping. Hiromu Arakawa truly created one of the most badass MCs of all time...God (or Truth) bless that woman
What's really interesting to consider is that each of the sins were extracted from father's soul meaning that everything the sins desired or longed for, father wanted first. It adds another layer to both envy and greed in particular
Stale Memes It makes sense, Greed and Envy both kind of wanted the same things. Envy was jealous of humanity’s determination and solidarity, and Greed wanted the friends/relationships they had.
reminder! plz watch bloopers after final ep! that is all
"Let's look at the door."
they don't read comments
Le'ts bring mom back
"FUCK HIM UP!!"
What about 4koma? They’re also worth it.
the souls in a philosopher's stone are conscious, the evidence being that when envy turns into his true state, the souls manifesting on his shoulder act individually, some of them even talk, one of them asked ed to end its life and was overcome by another soul who was laughing madly. the difference with hohenheim is that because he deliberately worked with the souls and granted them access to his senses, the souls inside him maintain a greater degree of sapience, shown when the souls father absorbs burn themselves out to rip father apart from the inside.
standard souls in a philosopher's stone have difficulty maintaining individuality and staying sane, which is why ling and kimbley are so weird, they seem to do it with ease. hohenheim deliberately ensured his souls maintained individuality, since he mentions one of the souls father absorbed was an alcoholic and hohenheim would often drink tons of alcohol for him to enjoy the feeling again.
I've never thought about the drinking part, that makes sense.
I would say that the souls inside the stone have a limited conscience only. It seems that, when nobody cared about them and improved them like Hohenheim did, they somehow clung on to their strongest feeling only. You quote the example of Envy : they actually don't really talk or interact with Ed, they just express the final thought or emotion they kept in mind. The need of help for most of them, who call for someone of their family, the wish to drag him down with them for the ones who are mad, the desire to be free for others ... all of that was probably the primal feel that was left in them.
In a way it's not really surprising that Kimblee and Ling have maintained their personality within the stone, first they are both strong wills and they only spent hours for Kimblee, and months for Ling (and with a quite tolerant host too), and not centuries like the people of Xerxes.
@@lazyshoggy The part about Hohenheim drinking for him is meant to be metaphorical. Like hes drinking on his behalf, not literally drinking for him.
@@captaincannabis3321 Well technically he can do both at the same time, which is quite convenient.
The story doesn't look deeper into how the souls and Hohenheim interact, but I think we can assume that they have limited perceptions of what their host feel. Which may have been quite akward in some situation, especially with Trisha ...
watching Al complete his character arc in this episode is just so goddamn good. from kid who just wants to get his body back, to accepting that he can't get his body back until the fight is over, to realizing his ROLE in the fight is over, so it's time to get his body, putting his full faith in Ed...outstanding writing.
"Go Edward!" "F#*@ him up" bloopers 😂
I can't not hear it
HE WONT THATS THE END!
I've been hearing the blooper scenes the entire series XD I couldn't hear the original lines unless i strained my ears to do so
MystikAura Same
FUCK HIM UP
THIS IS GROUND CONTROL! CALLING MAJOR TOM!
One of the best episodes ever in my opinion. Just two more episodes now till the end. T.T just hope you guys watch the omakes and bloopers.
Jimin you got no jams! Hi fellow ARMY 💜
Creepy Girl hello 😊 fellow ARMY.
This is why it’s one of the best shounen. Hiromu Arakawa and Bones 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Edward's line: "Get up you novice!!!" He's so badass!
The funny thing is, that’s the same thing he said to the false priest all the way back in Episode three! And thus he repeats the same thing at the end to the false God!
@@rasengan124 that's bookends baby!
This whole ending sequence from the military coup to this episode is such a feel good sequence. I feel like such a consumer for how much I like it but I can't help it, seeing the ENTIRE squad back together with all the living characters cheering for Ed is so feel good.
I love how much Eric is into this series than he was in the begining. same with Aaron, but Eric's is more noticeable
we're so close to the end its almost sad
Its been a year now right? Wow.
Watch the bloopers after you guys finish
They confirmed they will watch it.
That theme song during that sacrifice moment was one of my favorite moment in fmab.
Man can believe we are near the ending... Still remember promoting for these guy to do two episode per sitting so that we can finish it earlier.
The laser at 3:00 always made me think of Navel laser kid from MHA
Matthew Nash If he got really powerful. But the amount of time he can use his quick before getting a stomach ache is the same.
Jack Lobrano STOP! No spoilers please!!
Jack Lobrano Same.
Anime-only people could be reading this, though.
Never caught that reference to Episode 3 at the end there
Alex James what reference?
In Episode 3, he says something similar to Father Cornello. Something along the lines of “Why don’t you come on down here and try me you novice! I’ll show you just how outclassed you really are!”
It's one you'd really only notice after binging.
Septem I binged it and I never even thought about it
Oh cool, never made that connection
I always like the little details in fma like when ed got his arm back the fingernails were long because they kept growing in the portal of truth.
Just an interesting trivia: Arakawa named the countries Xerxes and Amestris after the Persian Emperor and his wife, who's quite famous for being rumored to kill children as part of a ritual to remain young and beautiful.
6:32 "The Blind Alchemist
Me: Gets flashback to when you guys watched the OVAs XD
The souls are probably conscious. The evidence being a) The scene after everyone is returned to their bodies where they seem to remember being in a tempest of screaming souls, and b) Kimblee staying individual within Pride.
The fight vs Father in this episode is so good I hold my breath (much to my lungs disapproval) every time. The tension and suspense and cinematography are incredible.
Amazing show
Al's body inside the gate, I still find it unsetting that it can respond without a soul
the fan accepted name for this scene is "father vs everyone".
a fairly apt description.
More like "One vs. All"
My favorite character is Alphonse. He is so pure hearted, sacrificed himself multiple times, and his innocence. That is the reason when he had the philosopher stone is was more powerful than Kimblee and Pride together cause the souls in the philosopher stone were fighting along with him.
I think all the Homunculus have some deep desire specifically reflects their nature that is particularly hard to achieve due to that nature. Greed's is friendship because you can technically strive for anything, but companionship is something that you cannot force, it requires reciprocation which is very hard for someone greedy. Also Father can't fight or gauge his own power because since he became Father, he has never been powerless... he has never been in a real fight, which is why he is so bad at it.
Watch the bloopers after finishing the series up, they're glorious
“Who knows, maybe it will *fill the emptiness inside me!* An achievement like that could *finally quench the thirst* that I’ve lived with since the day I was born!”
My favorite lines from Greed. It’s the very core of the sin of greed and I love it.
Also love the shot of the giant suit of armor disintegrating while Al’s soul reunited with his body; AND Mustang’s badass entrance with his fire dragon (wolf?). The shots, the music. CHILLS.
Also also I’ve always liked the idea that it was Hohenheim’s first-born that’s beating the shit out of Father/Dwarf, just because of the unique history they (Hohenheim and the Dwarf) have. I don’t know how to explain it, just something about it touches me. Is it poetic? Ironic? Something along those lines.
Do I smell tears next week?
Edward, i don't feel so good...
You novices FINALLY made it to my favorite episode! 👊
Maintaining individuality within a homunculus isn't dependent upon the hosts willingness, although it's incredibly hard do without it. We've only seen two people do it. Kimblee maintained individuality without Pride's consent because his sadistic nature nullified the screaming of thousands of souls which usually drives souls mad. Ling was also able to maintain individuality prior to Greed consenting to it, although at some point they became partners. For Ling, it was because of his sheer determination, will, and focus on the goal of saving his people by becoming Emperor that maintained his individuality. Ling describes himself as "no normal man" and his ability to maintain individuality through sheer will really backs this up.
Sometimes I can't tell if I love more Edward or Alphonse. Ed is incredible, but also Al. He's always sacrificing something thinking of other people. He gave up of using the Philosopher's Stone to take his body back; he protected many people with his own body (the armor, but still) several times; he transmuted his soul to give Edward his arm back. Maybe because of these things it hits me so much when his body talks about him a few episodes ago, "my valiant and noble soul".
If you think this was an ending feeling episode, wait till the next one
The music in this episode! The music in this series... everything is perfection.
Zampano: "GO KID!"
Mr. Gorrilla: "ELRIC!!!"
The last 2 episodes...oh god...I remember. You're all in for a treat.
Reminder the last 2 episodes you have to watch the outros(end credits).
This episode was so amazing, aaaa.
Well you guys are going to absolutely love the last two episodes. I can't wait for your reaction to what comes next.
I got so into it I forgot there were more episodes. Goddammit I have to wait another week.
love how these last episodes keep you wanting more.
I loved how Aaron was almost crying when Al is sacrificing himself
The best joke I thought of in this entire series was Roy shouting full metal in into a brick wall and hawk eye having to turn him around to face the right way
I do not want this series to end
*crying*
I freaking love this show so much. That moment when everyone starts cheering for Ed as he’s beating up Father is probably my favorite moment of the series. Especially the Greed moment; when you think he wants the world but turns out he just wanted friends. UGH. Gets me every time!!
*Hawkeye, Mustang, and Armstrong pose*
Shane: "Awwww that's a really fucking cool shot man."
You guys gotta watch the dub bloopers, they're hilarious.
One of my favourite final fights in anime.
No 1v1 with God, just all the main characters teaming up to beat an OP villain.
The way a good final fight should be done.
Y'all should watch the bloopers
This episode has my fav moment in the series. I can't wait for them to see it.
I really hope they watch the bloopers😊😊😊
When you guys first started reacting to fmab I was so excited to see what you think but now that there are 2 episodes left I am back to my emotions when first watching the last 2 episodes wishing there were more but I hope you guys enjoy the last episodes!
You guys must watch the next episode's final scene till the credit's end, you must do it guys!
Also, I’ve always loved the detail that when Ed gets his right arm back, its muscle mass is significantly less than his left and with long nails too. This show is so good.
What's really amazing is Greed's character arc. I mean, look where he was where the series began! Troy Baker is incredible at convening Greed's emotions the audience. Another thing to point out is that in the end of the episode, Ed says exactly to Father what he said to Cornello. Interesting...
PS: I can't watch the fight without hearing Hoheinhiem yell "F##k him up!!" Heh... The bloopers were pretty good.
After you have finished the series I highly recommend the outtakes to this anime! You will all love it! Like so they see this!
Am I the only one noticing that it seems physically taxing on Eric to say the word 'God'?
Leaky Peach
Yeah he said multiple times he didn’t like god and in the sub he straight up says he’s an atheist. I think they changed that in the dub because that literally makes no sense because he’s seen god with his own eyes and has faced consequences to trying to play god.
JustCallMeSchwick Sorry, I meant Aaron. BW reactor on the left. Multiple times they try to talk about God but it always seems to make him uncomfortable to even mention the word
Leaky Peach ohhhh
No, that’s my bad. Sorry. I just assumed Elric got auto corrected or something.
I just think he doesn’t want to insult anyone but I think it’s fine because it’s in the context of the show. Like, father literally swallowed god.
Leaky Peach
Also the person on the far left is Eric. Aaron is on the right...unless you’re talking about their far left. Fuck I’m confused!
JustCallMeSchwick Yeah, I thought it might be that but what kind of world do we live in that we fear offending people with a 3-letter word?
The part where Al sacrifices his soul for Eds arm gets me everytime smh the music really hits you
Kudos to you guys only watching one a week. I marathoned the entire series in less than 10 days and finished it last week xD
I always expect Hohenheim to scream "FUCK HIM UP" when seeing this scene lol
I don't know why but Greed's line about having friends like this FREAKING KILLED me!!! That's what this whole thing built up to. Those two brothers traveled the world, connecting everyone, being loyal and true to them, becoming their friends. That's how they saved the world. So freaking beautiful! ❤
I love how everything comes full circle in this show, Hohenheim is crying in the picture and Ed is smiling, Ed sacrifices his arm for Al’s soul and Al sacrifices his soul for Ed’s arm, Wrath tells the Ishvalans not to rely on Divine Justice and then it seems like he’s finally struck down indirectly.
i always forget how unquestionably badass izumi is, that sword scene had me weak in the knees
I thought it was extremely fitting in the end when we found out (spoiler) that Truth was playing the Dwarf all along and he never had the power of 'god'. In the end, Father was just a victim of his own actions.
Edward vs Father is one of my favorite anime fights ever! The sheer badassness of it, mixed with everyone cheering on Ed, it gets me so pumped!
Thinking about it 60 is a valuable year in China and other Zodiac countries as you have completed the Zodiac cycle 4 times. It is considered a fulfilling age to live to long ago with war, famine, and disease at the time.
I don't know if the author was intent on Bradley having a fulfilling life as fuhrer and as a human being in the real world. But it would be cool if she did.
This episode never fails to amaze me, even after watching it for the 100th time.
I hope after FMA end they watch more older anime, such as Code Geass or Log Horizon, because I believe they will like it.
Code geass is overrated.
This is one of those moments where a manly man stubbornly says, 'I'm not crying _you're_ crying!'
"He died with a smile on his face."
*Starts to have PTSD flashbacks to the end of episode 63....*
I love Eric clicked the glass with his pen just like we Asians click the bowl for more rice. 19:56 This show finally get this far. Thank you guys, so lucky to have you guys all this long.
Alphonse dying made me cry
After you guys finish fullmetal alchemist, you should try watching Tengan Toppa Gurren Laggan, Parasyte The Maxim Or Samurai Champloo (I feel any of these would be up your alley guys, but that's just my opinion)
"Something terrible is gonna happen now" 11:46
The last episode is a feels parade. Better prepare for it. Also, Mustang would be a serious liability if 1) he lacked the fortitude to push being blind to the back of his mind and 2) Hawkeye was a slow talker or hadn't known him for long enough to be on his wavelength. Those 2 things aligned just right to allow his full powers to be released (including his new ones).
As for the end, the dwarf was created by an alchemist using Hoenheim to pull a creature from the portal (which does indeed feel like a step in immortality if you use the brothers as a basis). There's some minor hints in the backstory, but the biggest clue comes in the next episode I believe if you pay attention to what is said.
Best episode ever right here
You guys have to check out tje bloopers after this series, so funny
2:25-2:50
9:45-10:30
2 episodes left, but they still want to gives you something to be disturbed by and something to left you in tear
P.s I known there are more tearjerker moments next episode, but common this is Alphonse’s sacrifice.
I really hope you guys could do the 2003 fma anime next its basically an entirely different series after ep 10
11:14
Mei - "Please don't die!"
Hohenheim - "FUCK HIM UP!"
Editors, Mods, whoever, please please please pLEASE. Get them to do a bonus ep after 64 for the Bloopers. This series won’t be compete without it.
it's been confirmed they will react to bloopers ,mod confirmed it on discord
233 osw You are a legend, thanks. Do they know about the 4-koma theatre specials?
mod did recommend to the crew about 4-koma theatre too but yet to be confirmed for now :)
Just want to reiterate, you guys NEED to watch the bloopers after you finish the show! They're seriously one of the best parts of it.
pleeeeeaaase watch the next 2 eps together, you don´t need to put out both reactions at the same time, but please do watch them together, otherwise leaving that week gap of ep 63 to ep 64 is just gonna make you loose that feeling that the ending of 63 leaves
This episode: Greed admitting that friends is what he really wanted
Earlier episode: Father saying that everything that Greed has wanted, he wanted first since he was bien from his avarice
Just an interesting connection
Please do Naoki Urasawa's "Monster" next!
"KICK HIS ASS, ED" Best line.
10:17 oh nooo the meme potentiaalll
1 more week and tears will be flooding
