It's entire existence is predicated on falsehoods spread by the studio and the shills of it.
>it's an accurate 1:1 adaptation
first episode disproves this as do a lot of major changes they make later on
>it's better animated
This is grossly wrong. 2003's strongest point was its wonderful early 2000's aesthetics.
>it's better written
again, they make big changes to the original story that don't jive at all.

It's completely redundant.

I can't speak for everyone but I thought the ending sucked. It's like the writer felt compelled to introduce some bitterness in the otherwise sweet ending and stripped Ed of his powers. Dumbass fucking bitch had a good thing going but she ruined it at the finish line.

It's not, at worst, people are just running out of stuff to say and turning to scrutinizing it. But they're still fans, I genuinely think funnyschizo is a real fan, he just wants to see FMA be better.

I find it weird that everyone praises FMA 2003 out of sheer contrarianism, but I don't see enough people praise Hellsing 2001 and they prefer to suck off Ultimate. Where the fuck are the contrarians for that even though 2001 is actually superior to Ultimate and the manga.

Its funnier cause Arakawa is on alright terms with the director. She even wrote a comic about it and interviewed him

The test is a meme (it was literally a joke) that was disavowed by the creator, it only serves to have unnecessary standards for female characters when the hypocritical people who like to push this meme only care about male characters anyway from what I've noticed lol. Reminds me of when people used the Mary Sue test to bully and stifle people from having fun desu

>>280067920
Because the person who keeps making these threads is a MAL/Ledditor who's insecure about the rankings and was bullied for being an 03fag.

Has been there since the start. Doesn't help that Brotherhood rushed through the first series' material and changed the tone to be lighter. But the source material is better than what the anime team came up with so Brotherhood >>>>> 03.

She looks like this in 03 most of the time anon, the animation looked really shitty sometimes but that's just the early 00's.

People are finally waking up and realizing that "more faithful to the manga" doesn't automatically equate to "being better" or even necessarily "being good".

It was the show that proved that anime original doesn't mean bad and the subsequent trend of forcing all anime to match the source manga panel by panel was a mistake.

Why don't you admit that you don't actually like FMA, you just like FMA fanfics?
