Mustachio anime Full Metal Alchemist’s remake has attracted much unwelcome attention with the release of TV ratings which show a collapse in ratings, especially compared to the much loved but totally divergent original:
The original maintained an average of 6% throughout its 50 episodes. The remake on the other hand manages an average of a mere 3.3%, and falling fast, less than half way through.
There are rumours of the show being moved to a more favourable timeslot, not that there is any real indication that this would rescue it…
There’s a reason the first Opening song is called Again.
Kid friendly involves cute ishvalan little girls getting shot in the head and baddass characters get cut in half.
Kid friendly and sunshiney happy, huh?
Riiiiiight.
Manga>Brotherhood>FMA1.
BELIEVE IT.
ja i dont know how you have those grafic, but i think taht its flase because FMa shintetsu is the best anime of the world… stupids!!
the new anime is actually very good and the story line is just as good as the original but i just dont like the drawings it ruins the show drastically, it makes it too kid friendly and such
If you’ve read the manga, you know what to expect storywise.
i mean the character Mei, she just pops up, no explanation on how she got there, or Yoki. They just both APPEARED in the story and the show expects the audience to know that.
Awesome fight scenes like Lan Fan fighting Envy and kicking his ass was left out
now i know the flashback episodes were left out cause as fans we should know what happened, but they put a couple in anyway, but it just seems more of another mess of an anime than a remake, thought it does follow the manga more closely than the first series
But the first series had a charm to it and a very deep and emotional plot. In the new series, we don’t feel that cause we KNOW WHAT HAPPENS.
Every scene is like the reboot trying to tell the fan “Hey remember this in the manga?!”
