I read somewhere that the manga would be around 100 chapters long. Seeing as the 100th chapters is almost out, can someone tell me if the end is near? I've read up until chapter 84, beginning of the next arc, and waiting for the manga to end so I can read it all in one run

So from which episode does the current anime deviate from old material and pick up the manga material? I'm thinking of picking up FMA 2 now but I don't know where to start (can't stand watching the first few episodes recycling the story of FMA 1).

To start watching FMA 2 I will advise you to start from episode 2. The first 15 episodes of FMA 2 might resemble FMA 1 but with few important changes in the story. If you do not watch them you might not be able to follow the story line.

yes. I would start from the very beginning, even though things may seem a bit similar for the first 12 or 13 episodes, they'll still be different enough that you shouldn't skip over them because you'll be missing out on some important details.

I asked this elsewhere too but didn't get an answer yet so here I go :
I've read FMA up to vol.16 in the manga version. This was just quite recently, and I don't want to re''watch'' for who knows how many episodes of stuff I already know about. Is there anyone here who has read the manga and knows which episode should I pick up Brotherhood from if I've read the manga up to vol.16 ? Also : Does Brotherhood actually follow the manga very accurately ? The above question is useless if they still failed to do it even though Brotherhood was supposed to be all about that ..

Brotherhood does follow the manga, although they did mess around with Ishbal a little (cutting up Armstrong and Scar's bits; putting them in earlier episodes), and of course, there's those notorious and inevitable cut scenes. However it's been doing all right so far, storywise - almost everything's happened the way it should have... almost...

It's Roy vs. Lust, by the way. Pretty badass stuff, and top-notch animation.
