Don't loose heart. There are a few sane individuals out there who thought the original FMA adaptation was far superior to the generic shonen trash Brotherhood, precisely because it decided to deviate from the author's generic manga.
We may be few, but remember, shows being uber popular doesn't really mean anything when they're all Jump/Shonen series at the top of popularity lists!
That said, this post/discussion belongs in the Full Metal Alchemist sub-forum.
