rustix Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I've been thinking of watching FMA but I kinda don't want to have to watch 51 episodes of FMA. I remembering reading on this topic that the first 15 episodes of FMA:B is the same as FMA (or something along this line). So if I just start with FMA:B will I be missing much?

mail Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Why do they randomly put up pictures and say Full Metal Alchemist in an american voice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted September 16, 2009 Veteran Share Posted September 16, 2009 Why do they randomly put up pictures and say Full Metal Alchemist in an american voice? I've stumbled upon a Wikipedia page several times which explained these scenes. I forgot what these scenes where called and why some animes have them and why some don't. They're always seen in between the 1st and 2nd half of an episode so that's one function they serve for. In FMA:B it shows which characters are important during the story of the running episode.

deletedxyz Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Any anime/manga similar to Matrix (movie)? Matrix was inspired by Ghost in the Shell and Akira. You might also want to check out Animatrix if you haven't had the opportunity to. On top of all that, these might interest you: Gantz (similar to the Matrix in terms of being plugged in) Ergo Proxy Texhnolyze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deletedxyz Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Ghost in the Shell, Ghost in the Shell, Ghost in the Shell, Ghost in the Shell... I can't repeat it enough. :p Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade Appleseed Flag Anime that share only a few themes with MSG but were decent: Monster (one of the best anime storylines that involves police, medical mystery and some psychological horror/drama) Armitage III (often cheesy) Blue Gender (against Aliens though >_>, fairly enjoyable in my opinion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dance. Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 It gets amazing after the 18th episode if I'm not mistaken. Just hold on and continue watching the entire season. It's immaculate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trag3dy Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Anyone seen the movie Sky Blue? If so is it any good? http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encycloped...ime.php?id=2536 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakey Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 New Naruto Manga has been released early this week :) Amazing turn of events, though this chapter seemed sooo short. Anyone seen the movie Sky Blue? If so is it any good?http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encycloped...ime.php?id=2536 Seems interesting. Like appleseed mixed with matrix.....

shakey Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 New Bleach Manga is out early as well :) Awesome fight!! I can't wait to see this animated so that we can properly get the power and strikes that were done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deletedxyz Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Lol i remember watching this anime(it might as well be an hentai) Manga > Anime... then again, the manga is basically the perfect example of clicheed "mature" themes in the genre of anime. Sex, violence, drugs and psychological drama. I watched about 12 episodes of Ghost in the shell but I didn't find it very appealing :wacko: Watch Ghost in the Shell (the movie) first. In fact, watch that and GiTS: Innocence first. You'll then see how intricate and absolutely stunning the visuals and overall atmosphere are in both movies. Anyone seen the movie Sky Blue? If so is it any good?http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encycloped...ime.php?id=2536 It's decent. The animation is top notch. It's better than 99% of all anime out there. Its real name is "Wonderful Days". I would say the story's quality is on par with Final Fantasy Advent Children. http://myanimelist.net/anime/548/Wonderful_Days_%28Korean%29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkenBeard Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Good twist on this weeks Naruto, but all the "Sasuke is reaaaaally gonna die ... oh wait ... no !" going on is getting quite boring. I'm sure in 10 chapters, when someone will finally break his Susanoo, he'll end up actually having something even stronger :/ He just can't loose ...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted September 17, 2009 Veteran Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Watch Ghost in the Shell (the movie) first. In fact, watch that and GiTS: Innocence first. You'll then see how intricate and absolutely stunning the visuals and overall atmosphere are in both movies. This also counts for the series to be honest. Not AS stunning but still.. it has great visuals. It also has this typical GiTS atmoshpere; the deeper meaning behind things which are happening and the vibe going through each episode. But yeah, if you want to get into GiTS, watch the movies before the series. You'll understand what GiTS is actually about during the movies, which then can be seen in the series at a somewhat lower level, but still interesting and sometimes hard to understand. Oh, and don't forget to watch Tachikoma Days after each episode, they'll explain important things for you :rofl: A totally different subject; FMA:B. I talked about it with a classmate and was wondering how long the series would be. He thought that it would be as long as the manga, which is obviously still ongoing. What do you guys thing? Anime News Network is showing is a list for 38 episodes with 26 real titles. It would be awesome if they're really going to put every manga issue in the anime series.
