[Anime] Episode 6: State Alchemist Qualification Exam
Well, just watched it.
The exam, according to the subtitles, was the "state alchemist" exam. Is that equivalent to "National Alchemist"? --because in the next episode preview, he's showing off the silver watch. Speaking of the next episode, I'm assuming it will be like the manga chapter 05, which means it's gonna make me cry...

Wow... The anime's Ep 6 is a much better leadin to the next part of the story than the manga... Which makes whats to come much much horrifying... Can't wait for next ep...
Anyway, good episode, it was nice to see how he started performing alchemy without drawing the magic circle...

From the previews to the next episode it looks like something bad happens to the little girl Nina, mayhaps Tucker was able to get a chimera to sound like a human because he sacrificed a human to do it?
The ratio of good alchemists They encounter to bad alchemists isn't too good |

Just finished watching 6, its was a good episode. I liked how Ed just passed the exam so easily. The preview for episode 7 doesn't sound too happy when I heard Ed cry out Nina's name. I hope she doesn't die or anything because that would suck big time.
P.S I might've gotton the names wrong

As for the Nina and the dog, bring your hankie... Speculation for episode 7 ahead, possible spoiler.. It looks like episode 7 is the place where they introduced the character Man of Scar. There has been many theories floating about over in Toriyama World forum, with many people thinking that he could be Ed and Al's long missing father. He managed to performed transmutation without circle (or other alchemist tool), like Ed, and the fact that they went out of the way to hide the father's face in the only picture we have of him. |

If fansubbers actually used all the engrish the japanese put into series, you would see some very very bizzare words appearing. |

Holy crap...this is going to be the lead in to the most depressing episode yet! I have a feeling that picture Nina drew is going to be VERY symbolic next episode. And that I'm gonna run through every tissue in the house when I see it too.

Actually, out the first 6 episodes there is fighting in only 3 of them. The animation is pretty darn good though. What is most important is that I'm rather impressed with how the story and characterization is starting to shape up. If you are mostly interested in the fighting this isn't the anime for you. If however you only need a little fighting then get it because the fights that they have are excellent.
