Hello guys :)

I recently watched Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood and I must say that it was awesome :D
It certainly lived up to my expectations and besides Death Note it's the best short anime that I've seen so far :D

Just for the record this is how my top 3 currently looks:

My current top 3 short Anime:
1. Death Note
2. FMA Brotherhood
3. Code Geass

Even though it started out a bit slow and I though the 2003 anime was better up until the stuff about Lab 5, I still think this version of the story was much better overall because of how awesome everything that happened past that point was :)

The series suddenly got much better with a greater plot and deeper characters than in the 2003 version (Which by the way wasn't bad at all. This one was just better :D). And it also had some really epic moments like Mustang vs. Lust and the final fight against Father :D

So overall I must say that it's one of the best anime I've seen :)

What about you guys??

Have you seen FMA and FMA Brotherhood? Which one did you like the most?? :D

Side question:

How would you rank the Homunculi??

I though about it, but can't really come to a conclusion myself. It seems they're all around the same level (With the exception of Wrath and Pride who are superior to the others)

My best try:

1. Pride (Obviously)
2. Wrath (Using swordsmanship like a Baus!)
3. GreedLing (Ling and Greed we're both strong already. With their combined powers they're a beast!!
4. Envy (Very strong, and changing forms can be a big advantage)
5. Gluttony (His Gate of Truth is OP, but besides that he's pretty weak)
6. Lust (Her claws are called the Ultimate Spear, after all)
7. Original Greed (Very close to Lust, but I think she might be slightly stronger)
8. Sloth (This is we're I'm really unsure. But suiting his name Sloth wastes his potential completely. Though he's strong and fast, he's stupid, his fighting is sloppy and he only uses his speed to charge at the enemy, not to dodge or land fast attacks in close range, and on top of that he's bad at aiming with his charge. So though he has the potential to be higher, I'd say he's the weakest because of his theses things)

FMAB > Death Note

As for Homunculi:

1. Father - he's one of them, you know. But yeah.

1.1 Pride

2. Wrath

3. Greeling

4. Sloth

5. Envy

6. Gluttony

7. Greed

8. Lust

The homunculus top is rather simple.

It's the Alchemists top that's more complicated.

Mustang's #1 if you ask me.

Yea I know I just choose not to count him.

And for the record I find ranking the alchemists much easier:

(Btw I'm not counting Hohenheim because he isn't all human)

1. Mustang
2. Scar with both arms (If you count him that is)
3. Izumi
4. Edward
5. Alphonce
6. Kimblee (Not counting the Philosophers Stone)
7. Alex Louis Armstrong
And so on...

The only one I'm unsure about is Kimblee because he uses the stone most of the time, so it's hard to see how strong he'd be without it.

Pride looked like ass from what I saw, Is he really above Wrath?
Yea I'm pretty damn sure he is.

Ofc all the stuff about Flash Bangs and turning of all lights are a problem, but most of the time that's not a possibility.

And without using anything like that I doubt there are anyone who can beat him except Father and maybe Hohenheim. His shadows are super strong and fast and are both a very powerful defense and offense.

Oh and by the way I completely disagree with this bold statement.

Death Note is far superior to all other Short Animes, that I've watched this far. It just too damn epic, the other can't even be compared to it.
