Evidently there's going to be 4 FMA OVAs released in the new future. Now since this is the first I've heard of this plus so far this is the only site with info on it, I'm asking if anyone else has heard something similar.

No, I haven't, but if it is true I would be happy. I like post-story OVAs the best, but seeing as how the movie ended I don't think that's much of an option... It was pretty conclusive.

Not really,

Spoiler:

I didn't really like the way the movie ended, it was to openended and it didn't end the way I wanted it to so if these OVA's are true (which i kind of doubt) I hope it will end Fullmetal Alchemist on a better note.

when's "next spring" ?

MeggieMay · 2006-01-12, 14:36

Here's a article from AnimeNewsNetwork with more on the OVA http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/article.php?id=8164

I think it one 30min OVA and 3 short animations

Quote:

New scenes from "Fullmetal Alchemist" originally aired in (and only available by visiting) Universal Studios Japan. DVD includes the original "Alchemists VS. The Seven Homunculus (Kokka Renkinjutsushi vs. Nana Dai Homunkurusu)" combined with previously unreleased footage. Also includes three short animations ("Jissha Hen," "Enkai Hen," and "Kodomo Hen") released for the first time ever in Japan.

nice, im looking forward to it

I also wasnt satisfied with the ending

zeraya · 2006-02-04, 18:35

its about a chibi EP

i think it will be funny OVA and it will Release: 2006/03/29 i can not wait >_<

Advent7 · 2006-02-05, 03:06

I haven't seen the movie yet but from the sound of things there are a few more things to clear up, from reading some other posts.

FlyByNite · 2006-02-05, 05:37

Bones needs to get together with Spielberg and get the ok, then you can throw Indiana Jones into the a post-movie FMA since you got Nazi's you gotta have Indy

Gaia · 2006-02-12, 19:19

Hm.. I'm looking forward to the OVAs but another Movie would be better. I liked the first one, even if it played mostly in our universe.
Well, actually... FMA is such a great series. I hope, they produce a 2nd Series, since theres still more than enough material to cover, that could make it as good as the 1st FMA Series. Ed still hasnt got his arm and leg back, they're in the alternate world + are not at home (where winry + friends wait), still no transmutation of dead people (even if I'm okay with it), and so much more... Cant be true, that this series ends with an OVA... It's like "So, and now we present an short end for our 51 episode containing Hit-Series". But well, our opinion is probably not asked... The japanese fans should ask for more, as they already did for FFVII... and we got Advent Children, Last Order and probably an FFVII remake soon.
Would be great, if any of the japanese forum users could give a statement about FMA's current Status in japan... Is it already forgotten? I hope it's not

Honestly for two of the three OVAs you don't need to understand Japanese, and the only one which is actually part of the FMA story has no dialogue at all.

Mr.Hawq · 2006-03-30, 21:59

so why no dialogue?

MeggieMay · 2006-03-30, 22:15

Did anyone else think the OVA about the post movie was seriously confusing?

Spoiler:

The setting is clearly 2005 and at first I thought seeing many of the movie characters as seemingly re-incarnated kids (the three children chibi versions of Ed, Al, and Winfrey who we follow (and they are looking at a FMA Movie poster), as well as a group of kids playing a card game that look like Havoc, Roy, Maes and the red head guy from FMA) was just some sort of wink and smile type thing by the production team. However, we then cut to someone who seems to be Ed, only he doesn't look all that much over the age of 40, even though he has a picture of himself with a older Al from the past (older than the movie IMO but not that much older than the movie time period). He also seems to live with the three children we follow earlier and I suspect they are calling him grandfather, even though I don't understand Japanese (however, Ed's Japanese VA mentioned in a article a few months back that Ed would be looking after his Grandchildren in this OVA, which is why I'm guessing this).

What on earth is up with Ed, I wonder?! His being the kids grandfather isn't that far fetched (people in their 40/50s do have grandchildren) but how did he get into the future? Where is Al? Ed looking at the picture really doesn't fill in much, other than I got the feeling Al isn't with Ed at the moment.

One other thing - did anyone else notice what all was on the bulletin board we see right before we cut to future Ed? Along with the picture sitting in front of the board which is clearly Ed with a Black navel officer (who seems to be in a U.S. uniform but I could be wrong on that), the bullitin board has news items on it about the Challanger Disaster and 9/11, along with other things (but I didn't notice anything on the board that would date back as far as WWII, though there easily could have been - the board is extremely cluttered). The entire OVA makes me wonder if the viewers are suppose to believe that FMA really happened or not but why we're suppose to be thinking about this I'm not too sure about (I'm also not that certain that Tokyo of today is really our Tokyo of today either, no matter what Ed's VA said on that subject in the same article that mentioned the grandkids).

Silent_One · 2006-04-01, 21:29

The movie ending kinda gave the fact that they were planning more episodes away if you think about it. With the the line about finding that one guy and his device.
