how long were ed and ling in gluttonys stomach for before they ate ed’s boot? i bet those dumbasses were in there for an hour and got so hungry they ate a shoe. i bet it wasn’t even a day. they looked at each other and said “god, we haven’t eaten since lunch.” and then ed took his boot off and they ate it
i really cant get over how in episode two of fmab they like straight up just show us that ed basically met the closest being-like thing to god and then. then in literally the next episode hes like. yeah. yeah im an atheist
truth to ed in fmab ep2: i am what you call the world, or perhaps the universe, or perhaps god, or perhaps truth, or perhaps all, or perhaps one, and i am also you.
ed in fmab ep3:
Ed decided that God was a lil bitch and he just wasn’t going to endorse that.
One of my favorite things in FMA has gotta be how
irrefutably useless Team Greed 2.0 was. They had no plans and got nothing done.
This team contains the main character of
the whole series and they still managed to be completely useless it’s
beautiful.
Team
Mustang/Grumman/Armstrong/Hohenheim/Scar: In preparation for the Promised Day,
we’ve assassinated the Fuhrer of the country, kidnapped his wife to reveal the
ulterior motives of the Higher Staff, recruited an army of old war buddies and
Briggs soldiers to launch a full-scale coup of the country’s government
complete with an arsenal imported from Xing, planted a counter-transmutation
circle across the whole country to negate Father’s mass-genocide plans, as well as a second country-wide circle to destroy the obscructive alchemy Father has spread through Amestris, and are
in the process of hunting down and killing the last of the homunculi. It’s been going pretty well for the most part.
Team Greed 2.0: Well
Ed here is doing his best to act dead so the military doesn’t find him. All
while warding off existential dread, which is good, he’s a trooper. The chimeras are following
us because we feed ‘em. As for me, Greed? Aha yeah I’m planning on taking over
the world. How you ask? Good question. No really, that’s a good question. I don’t
know. If you’ve got any ideas please tell me.
i think it was lost in the anime adaptation how genuinely confused hohenheim was when he came back. like in brotherhood he seems so stoic and All Knowing but in the manga he’s just like i dont get it….wheres my house…last time i was here i had a wife and a house where are they…….
ling is just. what a fucking icon. what a man. gets caught by some mysterious evil organisation to be used as a vessel for one of their vaguely demonic buddies and he’s like “great, hit me the fuck up with those vaguely demonic powers”. disappears for several episodes only to yell at the vaguely demonic entity possessing his body about the power of friendship on his return. forms such a strong bond with said vaguely demonic entity that they smoothly pass around control of the body in the middle of combat for maximum asskicking potential. i love ling yao.
