Theda Baratheon Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I watched a few episodes of the original before I watched Brotherhood. It definitely felt a bit slower and more drawn out, whereas Brotherhood didn't waste any time with filler or pointless bullshit. It got right into the meat of the story. I found with Brotherhood that pretty much every episode feels like it is swiftly moving the story along. I can't think of any pointless filler. What a great show.

Liffguard Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'd say that Brotherhood is definitely the superior of the two FMA animes. It's paced a lot better and the characters are more interesting. The original anime doesn't have Olivia or any of the Briggs soldiers, nor any of the characters from Xing. It's not bad by any stretch but there's definitely something missing compared to Brotherhood. That said, I think the music was often better in the first anime.

Theda Baratheon Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 My flatmate has said the same thing; that Brotherhood is much better but the original has the better score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the first anime has Brothers which is almost enough to sway it on its own (seriously, that is one major gut-punch of a song). That said, Brotherhood has the better opening themes (especially the first, fourth and fifth). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't checked to see whats about to start soon....I watch all those shows as well except for 12 Monkeys. Add Gotham and The Night Shift to Monday's and The Blacklist to Thursday and that's my lineup. I've been caught up with Orphan Black and I'm working on House of Cards Season 3 right now. The Following Season 3 premiere is this Monday too, so my Monday's are very packed. 8pm Gotham, 9pm The Following, and 10pm The Night Shift and Better Call Saul.
