The Tainted Child

Ed & gang had met a boy by chance on Yokku island.
He seems to have a loss of memory and Izumi quickly brought him to her home.
The fact that the boy can perform alchemy without using sigils weighs heavily on Ed's mind, and he creeps into the boy's room from the ceiling to spy.

Spoiler for minor stuff relating to the above, no manga spoilers:

So, it seems we'll learn some more about this child, which we all very obviously want. It also seems we get to see more Sneaky Ed (although I personally think Sneaky Al is much funnier ). I hope we see more of 'Roy and the Gang of Five', and perhaps Greed and his chimeras will finally re-enter the storyline? Agh, whatever, I want any and all sins to come back

This is going to be a great one.

Spoiler for slight manga general reference:

I'm really surprised the anime crew decided to bypass the whole Automail Valley short-arc (which was boring and pointless in my opinion) and went right with more plot movement with this mysterious kid and more conflicts (based on the rest of the previews Yebyosh translated). A decision I entirely support as we'll likely see more of Winry's interactions with Al and Ed!

FMA is one of the few series that I can proudly say anime > manga, /discussion.

This entire "tainted kid" arc is so intriguing to me not just because it's anime-exclusive but also the mystery it brings with his off-tone body parts that eerily resemble the ones Ed has lost and "happy" appearance beside Envy in the opening. Okay, I lie; I'm hooked because I can't spoilers for it from the manga! Nuuuuuuuuu!~

Spoiler for relating to the above:

What was the Rush Valley mini-arc? Can you provide me with some info on what happened? I'm just curious ^_^

This mini-arc is definitely intriguing. I think it'll lead in to something none of us saw coming, and explode viciously into the fight with Greed, and finally shock us with an amazing episode 38/39 to finish this OP/ED sequence-arc. I have really really high hopes for the next ten or so episodes, not to mention what will happen later

Spoiler for manga Rush Valley mini-arc:

Thanks! Well, apparently it was pretty unnecessary for the anime since most of the scenes already happened in episodes 7, 17, and 26. I also liked it a lot more that Izumi found the Elrics rather than them actually seeking her out -- it seemed much closer to their personality to lie to the military about it and actually do things their own way Anyway, thanks a lot!

That kid was freaky ... did anyone else notice how one of his hands was slightly different color?

[ChainLegacy]

This kid looks extremely interesting. I can't wait to find out what exactly he is.

Lexander, check out the Episode 28 thread--it should almost be renamed to the "Uknown Kid Discussion" thread

Another "mysterious character" topic? ....

The Official Site has updated with the six screenshots from Episode 29.

This should be a very interesting episode. Can't wait.

Nah; if you were referring to the thread title, that's just the title of the episode from NewType that Yebyosh translated.

[OMchan]

Episode 29 screenshots are up.

Hehe.. like in the first OP, Winry is shown sleeping with a wrench. And Ed seems to notice the thing with kid's arm as well..

And the kid also seems to have Ed's leg as well.

Even more Winry eyecandy for us
However, I didn't like the Winry/new kid shots though :/

Spoiler for screenshot revelations:

And it looks like they are showing The Truth!

[Fei-san]

The series under FMA looks really strange

And what series is that with the girl in the cage and all the holy sexyness?
