By far one of my favorite episodes yet, clearly shown by the fact that recording this episode took ages because I talked so much lol. Enjoy that ~
21:30 "Maybe I can lend you a hand, Fullmetal" is one of the sickest puns anyone has ever done in this show.
Love how you analyze and deep dive on each episode and character, it is really telling on how invested you are!
I couldn't stop laughing imagining Pride awakening in an Isekai xD
That time I got reincarnated as a immortal-demon-shadow child in another world!
@@CastSenpai I need that anime now xD
Kimbely is interested by people's convictions. He likes to test them, and he has a major respect for people that are true to their ideals. Because of that, he gave the opposite option for Al, played the advocatus diavolii, he wanted to see Al's reaction, and if his convictions are just merely a coating that is based on air. For that, he has to see Al's reaction to the contra point to his goal. Being an idealist means nothing if you are not willing to sacrifice anything. When Al said "We can do both", it means he has the dream of archiving his goals while not going back to his convictions. The probe here, in my opinion, was to see if he was willing to sacrifice his goals for his convictions. That is, in my opinion, meant with "you might not archive either". Someone has to face the idea and needs an answer when it is the option between goals and conviction, and for Kimbely, only these that chose convictions are worthy.
doubt.. butt just my opinion and dont take this personal as i disagree heavily with you on this simple idea of "respect"
kimbely simple CANT UNDERSTAND it.. because his brain is not devolveoped "right"
he "lacks" or rather has extremely inadequat levels of empathy.. empathy is KEY in human evolution... its why we humans without having to experience can still understand and relate to others via understanding emotions and etc...
kimbley simply cant understand something they themselves do no feel...
him trying to understand is not "respect"
as a former anti theist and i know tons of atheists when thru an anti theist phase where in that time we really learnt to understand what the bible said.. YET we mocked and talked to theists like they were stupid.. despite the fact we gave "respect" to consider ever point down to every last detail of what they believed and wanted to explain to use..
consider this.. kimbley talking to roy and riza in the flash back of the war..
MOST PEOPLE join the militar for BENEFITS and IMPROVEMENT it brings to their lives and oppertunity and character building.. vast majority DO NOT JOIN TO GO TO WAR OR BE SENT OFF.. kimbley absoltuely did not understand or grasp this.. and simple resorted to a BAD ARGUMENT of "well u joined knowing u could go so stop crying"
its as stupid as if u got in car and then an accident and kimbley tells u to stop crying cause u "signed" up for it..
consenting to drive is NOT consent to an accident.. its consent to a RISK of an accident..
same with most soldiers today.. consenting to join the military isnt really consent to be sent off.. its consent to the RISK to be sent off.. as vast majority literally "refuse" mentailly to go butt again its the law and they kinda have "no choice"
intelligence is "SUBJECT" in vast majority of peoples minds..
science seems to have a different understanding of intelligence.
IQ has been disprove by science as a means of intelligence.. most people still actually go by iq and iq tests and compare and look at iqs.. even insult using commets like "u got low iq"
people ignore EQ which is way larger and broader then iq and eq actually has far better and provible measures that can be gauged..
nilishts like to think of themselves as smart and smarter then most.. they even often confuse Friedrich Nietcxh as a nililhist . ... often always point to him as and example in their arugments..
reality is nietzche HATED NILISHITS.. he was an ATHIEST.. i find athiests to generally be the more "intelligent" people in a vast array of subjects and issues WHILE compeletly capible of empathy and understanding emotions and relating to people..
id rather sit in a room full of anti theists who i find cancer then a room with a few nilishists.. id blow my own damn brains out on god xD
Scientific Nilism their views and understanding of knowledge scientific knowlege are distincly negative
they are BAD FOR SCIENCE... they are NOT INTELLIGENT.. they are cancer...
talking to a nilist i find even worse then talking to a thiest whos an extremist..
and sadly vast majority of thiests actually attribute nilism TOO ATHIESTS.. i know there are tons of athiest probably in this chat too that know what im mean...
u can be an athiest and a nilist.. they are NOT the same... most athiests are NOT nilists cause most in studies and survey are usually pro science and believe and accept EVOLUTION
as humans are highy SOCIAL MAMMALS DEPENDENT ON EACH OTHER FOR SURVIVAL.. emotional connections and empath are CRUCIAL FOR HUMAN SURVIVAL..
kimbley is simple a person who spews forth bad arguments that most people dont catch as bad arguments.. we all tell and push narratives springled "truths" or "facts" to make the lie and dishonest info sound reasonible..
most skeptics would shut down kimbley over and over... and upload videos of it on the athiest and skeptic side of youtube. xD
kimbley is a well written character.. butt he has NO respect for reality... nor human nature... if he was "intelligent" he would understand he lacks the very crucial thing that is the solel reason he was born.. again empathy and emotional connections in mammals that are highly dependent on these things.. so he should realize something is WRONG with him.. not us.. our brains are working properly his isnt.. and he talks down to ed an al and everyone lese like "we are the problem" he points to examples of bad things that happen.. thats anecdotal evidence.. yet ignores how if all humans were like him.. there would be nothing of value created in terms of well being for humanity ..
id rather live in extreme relitard world then a nilist one... espeically if they where pscyo or socio paths...
the point of kimbleys comment of "you might not achieve that either" ends converstation
is simply like with thiests of the exteme nature "u might still go to hell" ends converstation
it seem they always go right back to the start of the converstation with NO PROGRESS MADE..
the entire convo was POINTLESS.. actions speak louder then words.. everything that was said was immediately discarded for his nilistic views...
there was NO RESPECT.. 😂
also being an idealist and not scarificing isnt bad.. we live in a world where HUMANS WORK TOGETEHR so people AND PICK UP AND HELP OTHERS in areas where they lack at.. so imagine all the idealogies and inventors and etc who had said ideas butt SOMEBODY ELSE CAME ALONG AND SET THAT SHIP SAILING... again ed and al and the rest grasp this.. humans grow by HELPING EACH OTHER. . where u suck at someone might thrive at.. so together we grow cause u thrive where they suck at..
u have people who are great at putting things down on paper butt ass putting it into practice. yet people who cant put a letter on paper butt pop off putting things into pratice...
then u have people who can do both some who cant do either and all the other mix mash of degrees of it...
conclusion.. kimbley is a STUPID person overall... with bad arguments that only make sense if u dont see how they are flawed..
its not about what u believe by WHY U BELIEVE IT... he has mental disorders to go with his bad reasons/arguments
in short there are people who are psychopaths and etc.. who find kimbley as a person who gives them themselves a bad reputation...
respect is like love..
an abusive husband LOVES HIS WIFE.. it just his idea of LOVE is not LOVE in the way the rest of us understand it...
parents who beat their kid OUT OF LOVE because they BELIEVE ITS GOOD FOR THEM...respect and love and etc are SUBJECTIVE to each person.. so i agree kimbley RESPECTS them.. yet in the majority social usage of respect. . he doesnt..
@@InanisNihil A counter point for what you said is quite a spoiler, because of which I didn't put it in my top comment, but you will see it after a safety gap (for everyone who hasn't finished the show, stop here):
I might agree with you weren't it for the last time we see Kimbley in the show, when he appears in Pride's mind and prevents him from fighting back against Edward. Kimbley only started to act when he saw the ideology of Pride crack at the idea of death of himself, and that he rather betrayed his ideal of homunculus superiority by taking over the body of a human instead of staying true to his ideals and die as the form he considers himself superior. Edward on the other side stays true to his beliefs, doesn't compromise even at the most dangerous situations.
I agree that Kimbley is a sociopath, and he doesn't differentiate right from wrong. That said, he is also not power hungry. He has a lust for death, but at the same time, he showed time and time again admiration to people he perceived to stick to their ideals.
Respect does not equal love. It can equal love, but you can respect your enemy for something they have done that you consider of value, either because they were intelligent, wise, or even showed heart in a situation that you value. You cannot love without respect, but you can have respect without love. And while I don't think Kimbley is capable of love, he is capable of respect, if the one thing he values, ideological consistency and strength, is displayed.
@@Mysterios1989 yeah, kimblee is more of a "magnificent bastard" he is a horrible person but has respectable values you could learn off
@@Mysterios1989 nothing about what u said changes anything... u might as well respect some nazi's who also tried to kill hitler cause he changed thru ought the course of the war into a more delusional person... had they succeed literally does not change the fact they were and still are nazi's who still adhere and hold those views and act accordingly...
so all u did was now actually include a spoiler for no reason cause it doesnt change a thing i said about kimbley.. xb
also understand what i said bit better..
i know its lots of typing so it happens..
but at no point did i say respect = loves..
i made a COMPARISON..
as in respect just like LOVE and even honor and etc.. is highly RELATIVE TO EACH INDIVIDUAL and RESPECT means different things to people.. example i do not find it respectful for example even if u geniunely believe it and actually believe it true to teach as TRUTH that say noahs flood or jews being in eygpt is true... because its NOT TRUE period.. and what it actually DOES despite the point of the story is simply to teach "trust in god" and etc.. what it does is DEVALUES REALITY OF EYGPTATIONS AND THEIR CULTURE OF ACTUALLY BUILDING IT THEMSELVES and it leads to believer dishonestly believing "gods ppl built it all"
so there is "RESPECT" in believer in that yet its also highly disprectful to eypthian and believers cause they are believing a lie.. so the people teachign htat in a way dont have respect for their own students intelligence..
im sorry butt u might if ur a believer see respect there.. i see nothing butt disrepect as one is true one is false.. if it didnt happen then its a lie and its dishonest and in what universe does anyone find it respectful to be lied too..? nobody.. unless they believe it true thus respect it cause they BELIEVE IT TRUE...
again love is a COMPARISON.. u can compare apples to organges u know.. thats literally how u tell the difference between any and everything.. by COMPARING...
love is highly subjective and u literally can simply google "what is love" nearly everyone has different interperatations of it.. though for generalization purposes we simply attribute the MOST COMMON notions of love to "what love is"
same with "rights/freedom" its MADE UP and only works if enough people believe it and up hold it... while at the same time people with different understanding freeddom/rights might take away or give more of those things for GOOD OR WORSE...
thats the purpose of amendments.. so we can improve upon it with better understanding of things over time...
same with HONOR.. even "loyality"
loyality often is the major reason why abuse s victims DONT LEAVE their abuser.. often abuser is the only one thats THERE FOR THEM though in a twisted way.. and abuser knows this and takes advantage of this loyality..
everything is COMPLEX. nothing is ever that simple.. reality isnt black and white.. consider the word "friend"
in german culture it takes YEARS before a german calls another person a friend..
in america . people become "friends" in weeks even days at times.. u can see the issue with a culture where FRIENDS are made so "easy" and "fast" why theres this common drama of fake friends and distrust.. cause the VALUE for these words are so damn dimished and over used.. its like the dollar menu.. its cheap.. lmao
reality is.. these small things are massive .. small things are everyday and they add up and with all the other small things..
i dont throw words like friend.. truth.. honor.. trust.. etc around casually.. obviously dont delete ur comment to undo that spolier YOU GAVE.. just edit it out.. im totally aware of it and i still dont agree.. butt edit it out so castsenpai wont see it...
fyi.. im not saying ur wrong or right with how u think of "respect" im just saying kimbley reminds me of religious arugments where they "pretend" to get what ursaying yet the next words our their mouths or actions literally show they clearly dont understand... i find that disrespectful.. thats what im saying.
@@Mysterios1989 To be frank, the longer this show is going on, the more Cast seems to needlessly nitpick at it, as if he's looking for reasons to have a dissenting opinion. If his takes weren't totally awful, I doubt I'd care that much, but honestly, he's been kinda petty about things lately.
RIP Solf J. Kimbley!
He's probably my favorite and most charismatic, stylish, psychopathic murderer antagonist ever.
"Taking a moment to digest this a little bit"
As Kimbley is being digested
The one thing I feel the anime misses out with Kimbely compared to the manga is that it conveys he actually respects Ed and Al more then you realize better, like when he was talking Winry's parents a few episodes ago and how he was being entirely genuine, like Ed and Al he respects people who walk the harder path in life ie the Rockbells. He isn't really being pointlessly Nihilistic or belittling them he seriously wants to know why they go so far. Of course because of his clear unhinged nature it hard to tell he's being serious so I don't blame you for not catching that I seen the show numerous times so it easier to see for me.
Wasn’t he dispatched to actually dispose of winry’s parents for assisting the enemy? I believe I had some comments confirm or at least support this theory.
@@CastSenpai Yes that's true and I believe a thing the manga also mentions
@@CastSenpai Regulations required that Higher ups had to send protection to doctors, even if they were helping an enemy.
They send Kimblee noting " _But what if they would happen to meet with an unfortunate accident, before we are able to rescue them? You see what I'm getting at?_ "
Kimblee understood, and accepted this assignment, even though he had stated " _that's incredible, I admire people who do as they will. How nice._ " when he heard about Winry's parents.
@@atlachanacha That's the madness of Kimblee. He can honestly respect the commitment to their ideals and even bring it up to their daughter years later with complete sincerity, while also setting out to violently murder them without a second thought because 'explosions sound nice :)'.
@@CastSenpai the manga does make clear he was ordered to kill winry's parents, but that's the thing with Kimblee, just because he respects your conviction doesn't mean he won't kill you given the chance
As to if Pride gained any of Gluttony's attributes, when he ate Gluttony he says "I can practically smell every movement you make. I could do without the ravenous hunger, but I suppose I'll just have to sate it." Not sure what exactly would happen if he ate Sloth, but would love to see it!
Well he would become super fast but annoyed by every move so mixed with his pride He would see everyone as no threat and so do nothing against it
Yoki’s strike against Pride is only the beginning of his ascension to defeat Father.
Little sad note: I was thinking this might be the one episode when Yoki would get on the thumbnail, haha.
Ill try and sneak a lil yoki in the thumbnail at some point in the remaining episodes, maybe you will notice him
@@CastSenpai Haha. I mean, he's genuinely not a good person. He doesn't atone for swindling the village or vow to change or learn, so in that sense, he doesn't have a full redemption or development arc like most of the characters, but everyone has to start somewhere... and running over a small child with a military vehicle is as good a place as any.
The fight at the start is SO HYPE!! I love when Al's arm gets cut off and he immediately makes a new arm and keeps going!
What I love about the Homunculi is that their power or their weakness is in stark contrast to their "nature". With Sloth being the fastest one as a prime example.
RIP Kimbley
honestly- Alot of these later episodes end in cliffhangers :P
But this season is also the best. They got the budget to go all out, so they did. Every. Single. Episode.
This season is full of Iconic moments that many people call back on
🛐 the next two episodes > everything else on this planet
Kimbly is an interesting character, I dont think he's being demeaning to al at all. He actually respects the brothers a lot and tries to understand them. Kimbly is prone to being human in that he does have his personal biases and beliefs. He is a blood-lusted individual who has a twisted phyche, and although he enjoyed it he went through war. He views the brothers as naieve becasue he, as well as many others in the series, but is interested in the path Ed and Al on. He said in a previous episode that the reason he is on the "bad" side is because he is interested to see how things will play out between man and homonculus, and chooses the side where he can act most freely, almost a chaotic neutral, which sheds some light into his want to understand both sides (like his convo with pride last epsiode, and convo with Al this episode) becasue at the end of the day he is a scientist with a curious mind. This just turned into an analysis in Kimberly lol
2:33 "Don't you criticize my methods like you understand the neural system! Pain is imperative to recognize when you are in peril, to give the human mind context!"
Thanks, Dr. Gero!
I think you should watch 63 and 64 in one sitting. A little rule bending, but the end deserves it.
Noted
I disagree with how you think Kimblee is. He isn't writing Al off or even being entirely nihilistic. He treats Al as a free thinker and asked after his motives and perceptions, and listened to them thoroughly. Rather than a nihilistic response, I think he told Al that not getting their bodies back and not saving everyone was an option as a reminder. Because everything Al had said up to that point was "why does it have to be one or the other, why cant it be both", so Kimblee simply had to point out that Al wasn't taking into consideration that "neither" is also on the board.
I've really been enjoying your episode breakdowns since it feels like you're putting full focus into watching and understanding the episodes.
It’s not just alkestry that can heal. Both alchemy and alkestry can be used for offensive and healing. So just because they know alchemy doesn’t mean they know how to heal. They need to study and be proficient with medical alchemy (i.e dr marco)
There's a video called "Solf J. Kimblee - The Psychopathic Realist (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood)" by Aleczandxr that digs deeper into Kimblee. also, the next episode is one of my favourites can't wait :D
It's interesting how Brotherhood makes Yoki more of a lovable idiot by skipping his first appearance where he was a corrupt official choking the life out of a simple mining town with oppressive taxation and only referring to it with a joking flashback. I understand they were trying to get to the bits that weren't covered in the 2003 version as fast as possible but I would have cut the anime original "Freezing Alchemist" episode, started with Liore, and just adapted the manga completely rather than leave a chapter out like that.
19:38 - at one point In manga, Briggs's soldiers commented how Armstrong "is too scary to be a woman"
With this scene, do you think that is a fair assessment of her?
A bit traditional for my taste, Olivier as a character makes total sense imo and seems natural. She is just a f'in beast. Love her.
@@CastSenpai To be fair, this world is comparable to the beginning of the 20th century, and while I'd say in some aspects it is better on gender-equality than our version of history was, it's understandable they wouldn't necessarily have the same standards as we do in our modern world.
Of course, that didn't prevent the author from writing amazing female characters, and that's very cool.
"This should be *light* work for him"
In regards to what Kimbley is saying I don't think they are being Nihilistic about Al's ideals, and neither are they being Fatalistic towards it.
I think its more close with Hegel's thesis antithesis synthesis where in when a new idea is born, so does natural opposition to that idea and that opposition births another opposition, so on and so forth.
The reason I think that is because Kimbley does not make it a point to say that their struggle is meaningless but just presents a counter point following the same logic that Al presents and I feel he has deep respect towards the brothers which is why it piques his curiosity. At least that is my take on it
Usually I’m not a fan of fight centric episodes, but just as you were saying in the begining of the video, the pairings of these specific fights are almost poetic.
Al with all his humanity and compassion, fighting the most heartless cold blooded killers in the series and winning because not only because of his wit, but also because of the people he can rely on. Him refusing to fall for Kimblee’s bullshit and reafirming that he will always have hope and look for a way to make the world a better place. Also Al fighting without holding back, being creative and outsmarting Kimblee and Pride is awsome.
Alex and Olivier holding back Sloth, Alex holding his ground no matter what shows how much he has grown since Ishval. And Olivier gaining the trust of the Central soldiers solely on the fact that she is a leader wortg fighting alongside.
Thanks for another great video!
Cast simping over Olivier is great XD
Healing is not limited to alkahestry. I know they said Xing uses it for healing mainly and Amestris uses alchemy for military purposes. But it's a sociocultural difference, not a technical limitation. For example, dr. Marcoh can heal despite not being an alkahestrist.
Yeah I just think most state alchemists just don't make that their main branch of study. Even ed said he knew a little bit.
If you think about it, Yoki is a man who lived his life defined by Pride.
Olivier often talks about the importance of being strong, but when she unironically calls her sparklingly muscular brother weak, I think it's clear that what she means is the fortitude to think for yourself and independently act according to your principles, like at 19:50. It's simple, yes, but it truly can require immense strength to see that through, and her role as leader is to cultivate that strength in others, to make them independent from her. Very much in contrast to, say, Wrath's style of leadership, where obedience (even from the shallow minded or clearly incompetent) is paramount, and without him, they're lost.
I don't think Kimbly was being nihilistic when he was debating with Alphonse. I think he was just making a valid counterpoint that by holding to their ideals they are taking a risk. He actually respects them for staying true to their principles because at his core he values personal principles above All Else, but part of that is not ignoring any of the factors that go into those decisions. He's not trying to diminish alphonse's viewpoint he's just saying that if Alphonse is going to try to do what he says he also has to accept the risk that he could end up losing everything. By not prioritizing getting his body back he could still fail to save everybody and have failed his original goal as well. Part of it was to distract Alphonse but I do believe that Kimbly was legitimately arguing in good faith with him and wanted him to accept the risks that were attached to his idealistic decision. It was a battle of ideology just as much as alchemy but I don't think Kimbly was on the side of nihilism I think in this instant he was just arguing pragmatism against idealism, and it's kind of an assumption but I think he was happy with Al's decision
This might be a valid take if at any point Alphonse acted naïvely, but he wasn’t. At no point did Al pretend like failure wasn’t possible. Alphonse was being idealistic sure, but did not at all imply failure wasn’t an option. No matter how I look at it, Kimblee was just being pessimistic and nothing he said actually changed anything or mattered. Those words could not even pass as ideals.
@@CastSenpai not really he hasn't been following the elric Brothers story like the viewers have. So in front of him is a young boy who is risking failing his ultimate goal in order to try to accomplish everything. So Kimbly is putting those ideals to the test. Especially since Alphonse is revealing a potential crack in his own idealism by using the philosopher stone even though he rejected using it to restore his own body. Kimbly likes it when people stand by their convictions so whenever Al appeared to potentially backtrack Kimbly had to pressure him and Alphonse past the test. There's a line from the manga that I don't think made it in the show where Kimbly is talking about winry's parents. Despite the fact that he was going to kill them if scar hadn't he says he respects them because they continued trying to save people until the very end. Doctors are supposed to heal people soldiers are supposed to kill people, some of the nuance didn't translate into the anime as well as it should but at his core Kimbly respects principle above All Else, hey an ironically respects people who stand by their ideals.
@@noremac7216 Yeah, I get you. Maybe I'd enjoy Kimblee more if I saw the reason why he is the way he is, like a backstory or something.
Actually both country have their own medical branch of alchemy/alkahestry - but alkahestry are more suitable as it is more specialized in healing.
metaphorically thats a very precise analysis of the match ups !
Yuki redemption arc let’s gooooo!! Love that guy Hehhe
After Pride ate Gluttony he mentioned his new sense of smell and nagging hunger. So he did at least inherit some things. Though considering Father made Gluttony especially for the False Gate, I don't think Pride would be able to inherit that particular ability within his very different body.
8:35 wrong. Imagine pride with the armor of greed (or greed with the shadows of pride. Grown-up arms are better for fights)
SPOILER BTW!! In the beginning area when Ed had gone to the ruins of xerxes he and Fu both mention fables about a man with golden hair and eyes coming from the desert and the one that went to xing is clearly hohenheim and that's why their alchemy isn't corrupted unlike amestris's alchemy which was created by father
Just now realized he has already gone over this and figured out already🤷♂️
8:30 as far as I remember, he got gluttonys supersmell and a stronger appetite from him
Yoki is out here controlling who gets to be isekai'd lol
15:40 if they have a Stone they don’t need any Alkahestry knowledge to heal wounds. They healed Kimblee with a Stone when he arrived at Northern Command with a major stab wound, and Ed healed his own mortal injury by using his own soul as a Stone on a micro level. You need some level of knowledge of human anatomy to be able to make the repairs *correctly*, but the Stone will provide the necessary energy/material
Kimblee was healed by the Golden Toothed Doctor. And Ed was only able to close his wound, not a exactly healing, as much "staying alive"
Marco was also healing people in that town he was in.
@@plantcrone9662 But he had both medical knowledge and a stone.
Yoki numba 1
19:35 hahahah
Kimblee is not being nihilistic . It's just he didn't know about Alphonse and Edward as much as you do. Because you are watching journey of brothers for long time and watching the strength they potray in holding their ideals . Also all we see kimblee doing is antagonistic things manipulating destroying so you are biased and not really giving full thought to what he is saying. From kimblee's perspective Al is just a kid who is being too idealstic and taking lot of risk. Especially given his interaction with Ed last time that's what he saw Ed almost got brutalized by Kimblee simply because he is being stupidly idealistic and not really evaluating assessing the risk . Forget about the fact that Ed was wounded brutally in that encounters. Kimblee just blow up the whole mineshaft there are briggs soldiers in that area there's miles there are Chimeras what would happen if one of them died there wouldn't ed be responsible for that? Ed was simply being naively idealistic put everything and everyone at risk. Because he's a protagonist and we like his motives and actions doesn't mean there's other side to it. I absolutely adore the strength and grit Ed showed there but also I'm absolutely aware of the fact that he's the one put everything and everyone at risk. By being too naively idealistic they are putting everything and everyone they want to protect at risk. That's what kimblee is pointing out he's simply asking are fully aware of the choices you are making are you aware of stakes fully. It's one thing about being idealistic and holding true to them. Its another thing what choices you are making and what are consequences of those choice. Since brotherhood is shounen it glossed over the fact Ed put every soldiers life there in risk. I understand he's really ready to embrace his ideas and put his life on the risk but what right does he have to put everyone at risk simply because his ideals are telling a choice is wrong. Kimblee is just being realistic there not nihilistic. Again even if al and Ed are fully aware of choices and risk doesn't change the fact they are not really taking responsibility for all the consequences their actions might have. Since brotherhood is shounen it conveniently glosses over this negative aspect of their ideals. 2003 fma actually explores this aspect really well
watch one piece . I kno you won’t want to record all the episodes but you could do arc reviews and have a discussion about it .
why don't you watch more than one episode in one sitting but record them as different videos ? also cant wait for the tier list :)
To be honest it’s cause recording kinda drains me, I tend to be kinda mentally exhausted after an episode. I know it sounds weird but being on video is hard lmao
@@CastSenpai hmmm fair enough, was just suggesting because when i first watched this i couldn't help but starting the next episode finished the whole show in like 5 days (was in lockdown tho)
