Fullmetal Alchemist - Requests for new threads
Since the Fullmetal Alchemist forum is now limited (only Mods and Admin can create new threads), this thread serves as a way to request a new thread to be created.
Please post here if you wish to request a new Fullmetal Alchemist thread. Please bear in mind that we will only accept reasonable requests, we wish to maintain the focus within the forum and cut down on the noise (so no pointless threads cluttering up the place). Don't forget that you may still post in existing threads as usual, the only restriction is that you may not create new threads within this particular forum. |

That really, really doesn't need a thread to discuss it. It is barely even a topic. We prefer topics that are likely to generate discussion, not just a list of other potential titles that Ed could have had in an alternate world.

Now if you mean what were the reasons for making the manga, well you will have to ask the mangaka that (apart from the obvious "because it was thought it might be popular"). Wouldn't the existing [Manga] Manga Plot & Story Discussion thread be suitable for such a discussion. |

In which case can you give an example of what you mean by making the first post of such a topic (here in the thread). Make the post as if you were creating the thread yourself, give an example of what you mean and set the scene for the way you would like the discussion to progress. If it seems a suitable thread for discussion then the post can be split from here and new thread created.

You can reach for my hand

Ok, if I had to create a thread, I would start out like this..
"Title for whatever is suitable name for the thread" At first when I was watching the anime for the first time, I liked it not because of it's Alchemy stuffs and theory (Although those are pretty cool too), I watched it because I can always see how much it relates to our world, our government, our system.. It opened my eyes more when I was able to read this poem: Quote:
"that the beast in his many guises the flags and vestments in which he wraps himself and the elaborate titles he assumed can never be outrun...." ~Basically, what this quote meant was the person causing the havoc puts up his mask of "I'm doing this for the sake of the country, blah, blah, blah.." Like George Bush when he attacked Iraq.. Like the Fuhrer (I know he was being copied by envy but still, people in the military obeyed him, right? Roy killed the 2 doctors treating the patient, etc etc..) **Well, this are just a few examples.. Mind you, this poem is a true story, and what's in there is happening every second of our lives right now..** |

Someone please try and make sense into all this. :help:
Ok i would like to request a thread concerning this.
I recently just finished watching all the episodes including the movie but something doesn't make sense to me. Well whats bugging me is, there is two worlds as far as i know on each side of the gates so when someone someone dies in the world where you can do alchemy i will call it "alchemy world" e.g. like when ed died, his soul and mind went through the gate to the other world but there is two ed's :S so according to the anime he fell and ended up in ed's body in the other world (the world with ed's father) and he managed to keep all his memories and knowledge but i dont know what happened to the previous ed that he took over. so in conlusion this forced me to think that there is a Parallel person for each person in the alchemy world that shares the same characteristics but not the mind as hughes for example, how come he lost all of his memories and knowledge in the movie when he died and went to the other world? when ed didn't?. in al's case when ed brought him back alive, was he born again? and when in the end he went to the other world and the other al died, does that mean that there is only 1 al left and what happens if that al dies? how come hughes wife was in the side of the gate when she wasn't even dead but i would assume there is two of her in both worlds. so what i know is when someone dies in the alchemy world" their soul goes through the gate to the other world and they take over the body of the same person with the characteristics in the other world which i would assume they keep their memories and knowledge but thats really doubtful now. also one of my friends mentioned that the manga has a completely different ending and some characters in the anime such as greed wasn't in the manga...is that true and how much comparisons is there to the manga and the anime? so much questions to answer i am so buffed!!!

To be honest, the series is rather old as there isn't much activity in this sub-forum. Have either of you tried searching to see if any of the existing threads on transmutation circles or homunculus would do?
If not, then please provide a little justification on why a new thread is needed along with a suggested opening post which will define the scope of the topic under discussion |

As the new 'season' begins, people might want sigs and gifs, so the "Fullmetal Alchemist Signature & Avatar/GIF Request Thread" might be nessicary.
Also, a "FMA Ridiculous Image Thread" can brach off from the "FMA Image Request / Submission Thread". However, one may wish to wait until there is an overwhelming collection of ridiculous FMA images appearing in the "FMA Image Request / Submission Thread" that it deserves its own thread.

I want to suggest pretty much creating a new board or somehow making it clear the difference betwen the two shows like putting Brotherhood or 2 in all the titles of the threads. The mix of old episodes and new is going to make this a mess.
