Hmm, if Ed is going to return the gun to Hawkeye doesn't that mean that we'll see some of Roy's backstory soon? That part confused me in the manga so I'd be glad to give it another look in the anime. And another question, shouldn't we have seen more of Marcoh before his 3 minutes in the end? I kinda think so but I can't remember, a simple yes or no will do!

I don't understand this question. Are you asking should we have seen more Marcoh in this episode, or in the past 29 episodes?

wandering-dreamer · 2009-10-29, 21:28

I'm asking if there should have been more Marcoh in the past episodes, like the past five or so. I thought I saw someone posting on that and was wondering if we were missing any major manga plot points by not having him appear, honestly I can't remember.

We missed a fairly big Marco subplot, but not any major manga plot points.

Dangit, I always loved all of the subplots in FMA, guess I'd better re-read it to see what I forgot.

Very nice episode all things considered. Actually, there seemed to be a lot of things being covered in this episode, some of which escape me right now. Looks like I'll just have to watch it again then.

WTF? The doctor pinning down May and Lan down for the count! Hell yeah!

Always a good idea not to piss off the people who treat your injuries

. Love how he doesn't give a damn about their countries internal disputes. Besides they should probably focus on their own problems right now.

Did enjoy that conversation between Greed and Wrath. Cool how Ling just jumped in there and told him off before falling back again. One amazing person to take in Greed and actively fight for control of his body.

Was also a nice call though short between Ed and Winry. Probably the first time ever he's called her and it hasn't about him getting repairs.

That was awfully nice of Greed though, to hand that message to Al&Ed to be delivered to Ran fan. I simply cannot see this guy as being evil. He's always been the guy who likes to dick around instead. Probably because of everything I've seen of him from the first series and in this series up until now. I wonder if that illusion of mine will be shattered now that he's working under Father again.

I think he was more weirded out by the fact that she didn't scream at him as she always does. God, she has totally fallen for him. It's so very cute!

Interesting episode, interesting revelation that all Alchemy was nullified, for awhile, in the last episode, not just the Elrics, "clapping" Alchemy as I had guessed. I like the Dr. House vibe, I get from Dr. Knox. I have a theory on what happened with his family, I'll just wait and see if it pans out.

Announcement: It became impossible for me to watch FMA since for the last five weeks I was away from my town due to work on a proyect for a customer company.
Thankfully, today I've returned, and I'll make sure to catch with all of you guys as quickly as possible.

On-Topic:
The second series adapted faithfully from the manga is warming up to me more due to its secondary and supporting characters, as their backgrounds are being fleshed out in more detail in contrast to many of them in the first FMA series.

Spoiler: So far the Doctor became the most sympathetic out of all the supporting characters. He's frail and devastated on the inside due to the issue with his wife and not being able to see his son again. That's why he's keeping himself hard to stay focused on his job as a physician. I'm very delighted that Marcoh's character is at last stepping on the big frame of the story, since his background will help to explain a lot of what happened at Ishbal.
