dun really think so, atleast tht in the old FMA, they portrait hughes n his family in more detail

If Ling appear, I watch.

Ep 4 its disturbing.
But between FMA 1 and FMA2, i say FMA 1 version is better.
its more serious, it add more insight to the story, they show how close their bonds.

Well, we cant have all that in 1 episode anyway.
Ep4 is my favourite so far =D

Personally, I think people are comparing the two FMAs way too early. BONES clearly wants to get all the arcs covered in the previous series out of the way as soon as possible. I attribute the light-hearted feel of the current series to this.

Will they continue the less serious approach all the way til the end? I can't say, but even then its not a bad thing. God only knows there are too many constipated heroes out there. Never learn to relax on the pot.

nina died on different place though, atleast this time scar killed her in a room, i rmb it was an alley in the previous FMA

Who cares if its better or worst.
We have FMA to watch here.
It's excites the minds again.

most of the single eps cover in Brotharhood so far is just reminiscing the manga storyline... for what reasons they wanted to show the same thing twice? even thou the previous version seems much more insigthtly "dark" thus far, its only 4 episodes air for us to compare it bones to skins.

and the manga is never 100% serious in the first place, there always Al or Ed making the crap out of the pages...

the comments are made based on the 1st version which i'm kinda disagree-ing on...
knowing wut happened from the first version surely kills the excitement like about nina so forth...
at least try letting it get to the different parts before really judging...

to me...the 1st one was great on it's own...although after multiple viewing of the entire series...i found it a little disappointing after


seeing a remake that's faithful to it's manga...couldn't be happier...

Arghhhh just watched EP.4 on Animax just now.....Episode 4 was the most saddest episode ever in the whole series.....
When I first started to watch the first FMA...i nearly cried because of that...I remembered the song playing for during the sad part was immensely sad.

The remake this time wasn't so sad....was expecting for it...but none.

some more the new version is in HD. i couldn't be happier.

But too bad we can't enjoy it....we can only see the letter box type only.....astro should start broadcasting HD quality transmission.

who says we can't enjoy it? i have been watching in HD since first episode. who needs animax and astro?

i am still waiting for the new content...

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.....watashi wakata.....

another copy paste from the first series, is they trying to make us recall back all the old memories before going into the new arc?

i guess so, so i estimate 20-30 episode of copy pasta

i had the impression they're remaking the anime and this time the plot is following the manga.

those saying copy paste, have u actually read the manga?

half of the first anime is based on the manga...
this is a remake of the manga and truthly true to the manga...
the first anime went its own way after 25 episode which is why i dropped it as its jz too boring compared to wut i've read in the manga...

I find this remake a new refreshing way of watching an anime.....come on guys...to be honest...if you ever own an anime DVD will you watch it over and over again.....even if it's your fav....for me...I'll watch it again but no 3rd time....
But now I have an excuse for myself to FMA:Brotherhood...to see how's the ending like.
