Firaga 5,947 Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) (Edited to not sound so lame) So... popular series, eh? Though I wonder which of the anime is better: the original or the remake? What do you guys think? Please, guide me to the promise land. Edited November 10, 2014 by Firaga Sensei Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Tery 4,591 Posted July 14, 2012 I have seen probably the first 10 episodes of the original and I really enjoy it. I've seen a little of Brotherhood, which I hear is better, but I don't like the new voice actor for Alphonse. That's really the only difference I saw that just really threw me off, though. I'll eventually watch more, just not in the mood right now. lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KHlover8 24 Posted July 14, 2012 I have to say I like the remake since it's originally going by the manga. I enjoyed both of them but Brotherhood was a lot better. 1 Xiala920 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FMA Brotherhood is the manga turned into the anime. FMA had like 15 episodes of the manga then turned into it's own story. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kishira 2,854 Posted July 14, 2012 I prefered the 'original'. I wasn't a fan of the manga, therefore not a fan of Brotherhood. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zanzetsuken 66 Posted July 14, 2012 I liked Brotherhood better. It went along with the manga and I preferred its story over the original. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hatok 6,413 Posted July 14, 2012 I have not attachments to the manga, so I preferred the original show There are subtle changes to Edward's character I don't like in Brotherhood. They're both really good though, to date, they are the only anime that I've watched from start to finish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xiala920 27 Posted July 14, 2012 I watched both from start to finish. Brotherhood is longer than the original but FMA has a movie(in case your not satisfied of the story of the original go watch it) Story-wise I prefer Brotherhood....because they have more characters and it's based of the manga http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/happy.png the original is fine but the movie is awesome soooo if I were you, you should watch both Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col.Random 3,683 Posted July 14, 2012 the original was like my childhood. But i can't judge yet, i haven't watched brotherhood yet. I'll probably do it once i'm done with H.O.T.D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sora713 0 Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Brotherhood is much better but I liked the movie for the original better since it happened after their journey unlike the movie for brotherhood which happened in the middle of the show.

rikuluver15 35 Posted August 13, 2012 I've watched both and they're both awesome. But I probably would prefer Brotherhood over the original. Not that the original is bad. It's actually pretty wonderful story-wise, and the fact that Aaron Dismuke was Alphonse X3 so cute. There were a lot of points in the original where it's like, "Oh my gosh. Did that just happen?" But there a lot of those moments in Brotherhood as well. And I really did enjoy the movie. It was just amazing (Alphonse Heiderich ) (Geez, I'm all about the Alphonses. (Thus the name of my cat )) I do like that Brotherhood went by the manga, though. And that it was longer, thus more hours of fangirling. And the ending was better than the original. But if I talk much more about Brotherhood, I will be ranting a bit too much so, I will close by saying "WATCH BOTH!!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dusk 910 Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) I have watched both, ,but I gotta say that I preferred FMA to Brotherhood. I dunno, it felt kinda boring to watch brotherhood after other version and it wasn't as epic as I heard it would be. They also changed faces little bit in brotherhood and I think that those looked little bit silly. Edited August 13, 2012 by dusk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
