Fullmetal Alchemist/Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood REVIEW
Note: FMA:Brotherhood is the remake of Fullmetal Alchemist. Fullmetal Alchemist was a spin-off of the popular manga series and did not accurately follow the manga. So after the manga was completed, FMA:Brotherhood was created and it fully and accurately followed the manga, and is also better than the previous series. However, I still strongly recommend everyone to watch Fullmetal Alchemist first. Actually, I'd go far enough to say don't start Brotherhood until you've watched Fullmetal Alchemist. This is because Fullmetal Alchemist does a much better job of clarifying and explaining things, and you will have a better sense of knowledge when watching Brotherhood.
Genre: Action, Adventure, Drama, Fantasy, Magic, Shounen, Military
Series Summary: In this world there exist alchemists, people who study and perform the art of alchemical transmutation—to manipulate objects and transform one object into another. They are bounded by the basic law of alchemy: in order to gain something you have to sacrifice something of the same value. The main character is the famous alchemist Edward Elric—also known as the Fullmetal Alchemist—who almost lost his little brother, Alphonse, in an alchemical accident. Edward managed to attach his brother's soul to a large suit of armor. While he did manage to save his brother's life, he paid the terrible price of his limbs. To get back what they've lost, the brothers embark on a journey to find the Philosopher's Stone that is said to amplify the powers of an alchemist enormously. However on the way, they start uncovering a conspiracy that could endanger the entire nation, and they realize the misfortunes brought upon by the Philosopher's Stone.
Fullmetal Alchemist: 8.5/10. Fullmetal Alchemist was a great anime no doubt, but it simply wasn't as perfect as Brotherhood was. There was a lot of empty spots and things that probably should've had a different outcome. However, it was still really interesting and kept me hooked to the series.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood: 10/10. This anime was simply perfect. Every single problem with Fullmetal Alchemist was fixed and done better in Brotherhood. It had everything you could ask for; drama, comedy, action, suspense, etc. It took lots of unexpected turns and left you wanting more. There's lots of times during this anime where i might really hate a character so much i just want to see them die, but later on i will like them so much they become one of my favorite characters. The whole world in the series actually felt real and brought up issues you could relate to; racism, social issues, political issues, etc. This series is also more realistic than most action animes. There is no special power-ups that the main character gains during battle. The main character actually loses sometimes. Lots of people die. Unlike some other animes i could name, not everything goes the main character's way. In fact, most of the time throughout this series the main character faces hardship. However, the fact that the main character faces these hardships, and keeps on moving forward despite the odds never being in his favor, is very inspirational and therefore makes you like the main character even more. If i had to face even half the number of hardships that Edward has faced, i would have just gave up a long time ago. If you still haven't watched this anime, get up, go watch Fullmetal Alchemist, when you finish that start Brotherhood. There's only one way to describe this anime: Legendary.
To get hyped up for it, i recommend watching this amazing AMV (it has no spoilers): Fma AMV YouTube

An introduction to my blog
^^^^******IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST
TIME ON MY BLOG PLEASE READ THIS FIRST********^^^^^^
Some updates and news about the future of this blog:
-Firstly, I really have no idea how many people actively visit this blog, or even how many people have even seen it. I'm just going to hope it's a good amount lol. Also I'd really appreciate it if you tell your friends that watch anime to check out this blog!
-When I created this blog a couple days ago I had no idea what I would be posting about, other than the general theme of anime. So here is a list of what to expect from this blog:
~Funny and cool pictures, memes, and GIFS(like the ones you've already noticed)
~Anime reviews. I'm going to get on that real soon, and anytime I finish an anime I'll be sure to post a review here, unless it's so insignificant it's not even worth it, or it's just so mainstream that it's pretty obvious(narurto,one piece, etc). Also note I won't review an anime until Its complete, or it's on a break. Here's the rating scale I'll be using:
10-Perfection, simply perfect and I enjoyed every moment. It's hard to find a better anime. A legendary anime that you don't want to pass up. If you haven't watched it, go and watch it ASAP. Definetly one of the top few for me.
9-Amazing, really good and appealed to me a lot, almost perfect but there is only one or two things I didn't like or should've been done better. Near to the top of my list, most likely top ten.
8-Really good. Overall really liked it, but there were a couple boring parts where the story went a little slow, and there was a few things I didn't like or should've been done better. There are a couple of animes I like better, and it wouldn't be at the very top of my list, but it would be somewhat close, probably top 20.
7-Good. It was a good anime. There were a lot of parts that bored or annoyed me, and many stuff that should've been improved upon. Overall I liked the anime but there are a lot of better ones out there. Definetly not in my top 25, maybeeeee top 50.
6-Okay. I guess I can see why some people might like it, but for me it wasn't that good. It had a lot of stuff I did not like or didn't appeal to me, but there were a few parts I liked. In the end Its just an okay anime, nothing special. It's probably not even worth recommending unless you've watched a million other animes that are better.
5-Meh. I didn't like it, but it wasn't bad either. Definetly not for me, and it's hard for me to see how someone could rate this at the top of their list. Many parts I didn't like, but there was a small amount of good things which kept me from hating it. I wouldn't even recommend or mention this anime.
4-Bad. This anime wasn't good. I did not like it and won't ever recommend it. I'll probably be surprised if I find someone who likes it.
3-Really bad. This anime is so bad I did not even complete it. Pretty much any anime you can think of is better than this. I don't see how anyone can like this anime.
2-Horrible. This anime is horrible. Everything was done bad. There isn't a single good thing about this anime. There is something wrong with you if you like it.
1-STAY AWAY. This anime isn't even worth looking into. If you come across this anime simply STAY AWAY
*NOTE: Typically most of the reviews of anime I post will be rated 7 and above, simple beacause if an anime is really bad it's not even worth wasting time to write a review and so it can be a basis for recommendations.
********Most of the animes I watch are shounen, action, adventure, comedy, drama, and fantasy, all though I watch a few others outside those categories if they are really good.
~Awesome AMV's that I find on YouTube.
~Any other awesome anime related thing i find on the internet
