Thread 282221450

Should I watch the Brotherhood anime or read the manga? I've been watching the first 8 episodes and I feel like it's not the best way to enjoy this serie. I feel like the animation isn't really worth it and I don't feel like the soundtrack is particularly good either. Should I just read the manga?

>>282221450 (OP)
Read the manga. FMAB condenses a lot of stuff later on, and stretches some other stuff out. It's not a terrible adaptation all told, but it is inferior to the manga.

>>282221450 (OP)
Brotherhood's weakness is that it speedruns that part of the story already adapted in the 2003 anime, up until the divergence point where Greed gets introduced. You're better off reading the manga at least up until that point

Fmab kinda expects you to have watched fma
I mean it's good because like everyone watching had watched fma then
But if you didn't watch fma...

Are we taking bets? How long until 𝘪𝘵 appears?

>>282221450 (OP)
The beginning of Brotherhood is atrocious, so read the manga first and them watch FMAB. I also recommend the 2003 anime, which not only tells a new story and better develops some characters, but also adapts some interesting chapters from the light novels and even some funny extras from the manga.

>>282221450 (OP)
Only 2003 exists, watch that and Conqueror of Shambala and that's all the fma you need

There 𝘪𝘵 is!

>>282222223
it's true and you know it, brotherhood is dogwater not suitable for even retards to watch

>>282222260

>>282222413
you mean the one with the robot that comes out of nowhere. I'd rather not watch some shitty allegory for the iraq war

FMA has become less interesting over the years. Ed and Al aren't very interesting, the setting isn't compelling, and the plot is dumb. I still think it's cleverly plotted like all shonen, but it's a bit overrated. It made me want to read the Farmville manga.

>For some reason these ishvalans don't accept and never will accept that some fans really loves the first anime
Anyway >>282221450 (OP) read the manga and watch Brotherhood if you want to see the best fights being animated

03niggers are so obnoxious, the guy was clearly asking about Brotherhood or the manga and is uninterested in your gay noncanon shit that only f/a/ggot 4chan contrarians care about. 03 is off-topic.

>>282224273
rip

>>282221450 (OP)
Read the manga. Brotherhood butchers the first bit of the story 2003 FMA covered before it spun off into its own thing. You're correct in assessing the soundtrack is whatever and I can only think of a couple moments heightened by the animation, otherwise it's average for an anime of its time. Arakawa's art is nice the while way through, you won't regret it.
