Thread: Isnt FMA finished?

Sorry for being stupid but didnt the serie end.

Is it still chapters coming out? I havent read the manga but I have seen the anime.

Does the manga keep going just like shaman king?

The anime went and spun off into lame alternate reality world thingie. The manga, on the other hand, stayed on their earth and kept going.

Speaking of the manga... whens the next releassseeeee

But I'm glad that the two are different, it makes them two entirely seperate entities. When the show is the exact same thing, I often get the urge not to read the manga.

The anime's complete at 51 episodes and a sequel movie. In its own, I think the anime's okay...

The manga's latest release was chapter 63, and I think chapter 64's coming out in a week or so, but I can't be sure, zomgfta's site seems to be down...

My personal belief is that anime versions exist solely so you can see the fight scenes in full colour, and otherwise are just a redundancy with their manga.

Exactly. Personally I think that the Fullmetal Alchemist anime was really good. I like the way it was developed.

I liked it a lot too. Because the story it conveyed was fairly well thought out and it was conveyed REALLY well.

That was true for the first few seasons, but boy once it got to fillers, Manga all the way.

Yeah, you know, that is a sensible theory too. It would explain our dissapointment with fight scenes in anime that use no choreography and choose instead to have blue or red ACTION LINES or some other bullshit. It would also explain why most people who read manga and watch anime prefer manga because of 'plot' reasons. Not because the plot is different in every case, which it isn't, but because the plot is conveyed in a better fashion.

The other biggest reason to prefer manga is that it will often have a unique art style, while the anime just has that same generic anime style. Like FLCL, where the manga is literally done in chibi-sketches, and the anime is basically just an anime artwise.

currently zomgfta's main site links to ytmnd (OH SHI-) so instead of knowing things like release dates, I get to see Scar hold a paper sign and ... safety dance...

the fights in fma and even naruto(wen the anime was with the manga) were pretty cool..i didnt like the fights in bleach that much,they were mirrors of the manga fights.
the anime was pretty good until everybody started resurrecting everybody else at the ending...it was still better than most anime,but it could have been better.
