What would the Homunculi have been like if they were based off of the Seven Heavenly virtues instead of the Seven Deadly Sins?

I Mean; even if they WERE still evil Antagonists; How do you corrupt Virtues like Chastity, Charity, Patience, Humility, Temperance, Diligence, & Kindness into Villainous Attributes;

I Mean you can play it straight by having villains represent the seven deadly sins; because it goes without saying; that Gluttony, Envy, Pride, Lust, Greed, Sloth, & Wrath are BAD;

So It'd be interesting to see how you can corrupt the Opposing virtues into twisted antagonists. . .

Like; What would Envy be If They were Kindness instead;

Or If Gluttony was actually Temperance

or Pride as Humility

or if Wrath became Patience

or if Greed was actually Charity

or Sloth was Dilligence

or if Lust was Chastity?!!

What would The Humonculus Look like If they were Subversions of the Seven heavenly Virtues; instead of Complete embodiments of the Seven Deadly Sins?!!

What song plays in EP4?

It’s the scene where Ed, Alexander and Nina are playing in the yard. (12:45) I was looking for it but wasn’t coming up with any results.

Version Enregistrée de Fullmetal Alchemist en VF / Canal+

Bonjour,

Je serais à la recherche de quelqu’un qui aurait en sa possession les épisodes de Fullmetal Alchemist diffusés à l’époque sur Canal+ dans l’émission La KAz, avec notre cher regretté Yannick Zicot. ⭐️

Étant un énorme fan de la série, je possède déjà les épisodes en version DVD mais la version est assez différente de celle de Canal+.

Est ce que quelqu’un saurait ou enregistré à la TV la version Canal+ non censuré ?? Un grand grand merci 🌟😯☺️

Bonne soirée à tous

What if Ed and Al weren't sacrifices but are still gets their automail and armor body?

Let's say, Al got caught in a fire, burning 90% of his body similar to Darth Vader. Winry manages to make a Mecha suit from the Armor in the Elric house for Al.

And Ed is caught in a freak accident in a factory, losing arm and his leg. So same like before, Winry makes Ed his automail arm and leg.

So, in this version, Ed and Al never learn the Truth and aren't sacrifices, but still went to Central to become alchemists.

What happens?

New anime for a friend

I made a friend through a video game and we get along pretty well. She expressed how she wanted to get into anime and I suggested we start with FMA:B. And apparently I made the right choice because she’s eating it up! We just ended on when Bradley is revealed to be a homunculus and she was screeching. She was extremely upset that we had to stop for the night. But she can’t wait to keep watching. I’ve converted one everybody 😂😈

What Episode am I looking for?

There's a moment in the 2003 Anime where we're told how Marcoh realized how to make a philosopher's stone in the latter half of the series through manipulation by Dante. If anyone what episode that was in please do tell me (preferably with a timestamp), I've been trying to find it but I can't seem to and it's eating away at my mind.

Looking for anime that marches FMAB is really hard

I was introduced by some friends to Demon Slayer. I told them I haven't found an anime that is just as good as FMAB and I was at my fourth rewatch of FMAB, and they told me to give Demon Slayer a try.

My assessment is that Demon Slayer isn't as good as FMAB. In terms of world-building, story, character development, where all the characters have a role in the overall scheme of things, even the most minor of characters have a role, Demon Slayer doesn't have this when compared to FMAB. The villain isn't very good when you compare them to Father. The villain doesn't really do anything other than order his demons around and he leaves Tanjiro and his friends alone most of the time for no reason, months even to recuperate. Father leaves Ed and Al alone because he needs them alive. Each arc of Demon Slayer is like a separate thing, as in the events of each arc doesn't seem to connect to each other, unlike in FMAB.

Some questions!

So, started watching that Netflix live action, had a few questions to ask ((Might be more later)

So, is Edward Elric voiced by his Brotherhood voice actor? Alphonse sounds totally different but him and mustang so far sound kinda similar.

Also, more broad questions: Human transmutation doesn't work because nothing is equal to a human soul, but what about animals?

Mustangs Dub VA got so much better between 2003-2009 I didn’t even realize it was him until today

I’m watching 2003 for the first time and was like glad they replaced Roy’s VA for Brotherhood and was shocked to realize it’s the same guy.

Does anyone have the stock image of this amazing FMA tattoo by any chance?

I am designing myself a custom FMA tattoo, and for the base of it, I’d LOVE to use the image referenced in the following tattoo:

Does anyone know if it’s possible to get a PNG of it? Or perhaps the stock image used?

Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to assist 🙏🏼

Does anyone know why the manga isn't available on the Viz manga app?

They have the novels (for purchase, not part of the subscription) but the manga is not there.

I've heard that sometimes licensing can prevent digital releases for some series, but Amazon is selling a Kindle edition, so I assume that's not the case here.

My google fu probably just sucks, but I can't find any information on this. Any insights?

How would you combine FMA and FMAB?

Both shows had elements that were good. Fma was darker and devolped some characters more. Fmab had characters the orginal show didnt, and certian characters got more time. Fmab had a better ending. Fma had a better start . Fmab is funnier.

So how could we combine the 2 to take elements from both? I would have made the pace slower like in fma. I would also keep the darker tone that it had. Things like eds finding out everything is connected, or izumis diease are done alot better in fma. I would keep in oliver and pride since they werent in the orginal. I would keep riza in alot more like she was in brotherhood.

Character Codenames

So if other characters had codenames what would they be? So far we’ve got Fullmetal - Ed Flame - Roy The Hawk’s Eye - Riza Strong Arm - Armstrong

The obvious ones: For winry I was thinking - The Mechanic For Al - The boy in the armor / the armored boy (or something shorter if you could think of something else)

I also want something for Denny and Maria

Roy refers to his team as chess pieces and they also have girl code names but I’m looking for something serious.

Havoc - The Smoking Knight Falman - The Intelligent Bishop Breda - The Unbreakable Rook Fuery - The Strategic Pawn

With Hughes I was thinking of something that had to do with his throwing knives similar to hawkeye The father of throwing knives? The kind hearted knife caster? Idk I got nothing

Edit: did this offend someone? 😂🤔
