A person who realy want to die : "hey, the little one ! Your cute blond girlfriend said that you have to drink your milk because you're realy little and she will not merry you because of that"
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how much Vic Mignogna's throat must have worked to voice Ed? That guy is seriously gifted. This is the one anime I don't mind watching in English dub.
Edward Elric of course you do cause your so amazing don't worry some of the most famous people are well vertically challenge your not short your fun sized like me I'm just under 5' at age 22
Well that's one thing, and I don't really care which one you prefer out of the two adaptations, I think they both had their fair share of good and bad. Some things FMA did better, yes. Like the drama and the slapstick comedy, but Brotherhood's story was a lot more satisfactory and epic. The pacing was better too (a little too fast in season 1) So I don't think it's fair to conclude that the 03 series was better than Brotherhood (objectively) which one you prefer, however, is up to your taste of course :D
Anybody else surprised no one else in the anime or manga really commented on how rare Ed's overall appearance is compared to every one else? I mean forget the fact that he's shorter than most and look at how he has downright divine looking hair and eyes since he's a Xerxian who were literally thought to be all wiped out. I'm surprised no one called him "The Boy with the Golden Eyes" or something.
Because... Eh... -There's an angry beefcake you...- Because why not? Besides, It's funny! Just like how callin' you short is also funny. *Shortie short short midget smallfry shortson.*
One of my favorite scenes is where Ed uses the pipes on a train to address the train hijackers, "Attention Gun-toting Extremists! Cease your plan of attack or be dealt with accordingly!" Predictably, they don't and Ed Uses the trains' water compartment to flood the train car the hijackers are in with water.
Edward is so great at emoting, his voice is so recognizable and full of energy. I can hardly say that for any of the Japanese voice actors, they all sound exactly the bloody same (this is opinion so don't hate me or anything). God I love his voice, I want to make a character entirely based around it for something, i dont care what.
3:27-3:34 Fun Fact: The Cows in the background are actually how the author of the Manga and writer of some of the story for FMA 2003 and Brotherhood draws herself. It's inspired by a Cow Manga she made years prior to FMA. Basically, those cows with Glasses are her persona.
the fact that I've read the whole manga, made fanart for them hundreds of times, read fan fics of it and look at fanart of them all the time but I HAVE NEVER HEARD THE ACTUAL ANIME. I thought Edwards voice would be a bit different, like higher. BUT AL? I THOUGHT HE SOUNDED LIKE A FULL GROWN MAN NOT.... THAT.
Just now realizing this but Vic mignogna and Caitlin Glass (voices of edward and Winry) also voice Ouran High School Host Club characters Tamaki and Haruhi and (mini spoiler) both couples end up married at the end of their series ♡♥♡
“SHORTY? CAN A SHORTY DO THIS?! WHAT ELSE YOU WANNA CALL ME, A HALF PINT BEACH POUCH MIDGET? IM STILL GROWING YOU BACK WATER DESERT IDIOTS” “ILL BRAKE DOWN YOUR FEET AND STICK ‘EM ON YOUR HEAD”
Ed (From Ed, Edd n' Eddy): "But we like you short!" Anyway while Edward always manages to brighten my day or any FMA fan's day. Ed's competence in battle is usually overshadowed by the comic relief he provides in the show. I'm saying so because I'm new to the series and I'm eager to know more.
***** Presonally i liked Brotherhood better, since it followed the manga more closely, and didn't have so many time-jumps. Although 03 does get an extra point for having that epic moment when Ed turned his hand into a gun.
I swear Ed is my doppleganger... i'm almost 20 and i'm barely 5'1... needless to say my feet dont always touch the ground at restaurants, i have to turn into some sort of gymnast to reach anything! and i still get asked for the kid menu's whenever I go out to eat... i also hate milk (but then again im slightly allergic... so yea) and la-di-da, i'm rambling XD Edward Elric is awesome... ^_^
