If your flashback scene for a character can only consist of "Hello, I'm. Characters with no actual characterization are killed off and we are expected to see this as a shame and a reasonable excuse for a major characters actions. They are the only characters that actually seem to grow, change, and have real conflict within this story.Īs a final point I would like to say that while both FMA and FMA:B use death as a major driving force for characters FMA:B can almost be laughed at for even attempting this.
#FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST BROTHERHOOD SOUNDTRACK 4 SERIES#
If you want to watch this series and find some good characterization, pay attention to Ling and Greed. An odd medley of alchemists, soldiers, and chimera all fighting for the greater good and barely an interesting one among them. Ed and Al don't develop or change but they are still interesting, the same can not be said for their companions. It's a shame the story is such lackluster since the world it's built in feels so vivid and inviting.īut even a greater shame then the villains would have to be the supporting cast of the good guys. Why does the Dwarf in the Flask want power? Because why not. Why do the homonculi want to help Father? Because a villain needs henchmen.
Generic good vs evil plot, where those that fall under the banner of evil show no real reasons or proper motivations for their actions aside from the authors needing a villain. Ed and Al are two interesting kids who will do no growing or learning over the course of 64 episodes, they began and end their journey the same as they started it albeit with a varying degree of limbs. It's always a shame to see good characters go to waste.
While this is still a fairly good show there are many things that just don't work. And any fans of the original FMA Anime should tread carefully. Anyone who does not like Deus Ex Machina and plot points that seem to be hastily shoved into place should not watch this Anime.
