Also, another thing the show expects you to understand by now is that the sins are created with philospher stones extracted from the Father. In other words, the Father purged himself from his seven sins/desires and turn them into individual homunculi. Recall that when he killed the first Greed he drank Greed's stone after burning him alive, and then to create the second Greed he took a stone out of his forehead. When he created Wrath, he asked Bradley "are you ready to become my Wrath?" Now with this episode you saw he can do those things becaus he has a huge philosopher stone inside him.
Luckily, I went to sleep yesterday, instead of waiting for edited one 💁🏻♀️
With "ill post it when it's done" I already thought to myself: Okay, see you in 24 hours. 😂 But their posted schedule was also very tight.
You see in this episode that when Pride said he was the first homunculus, he meant the first of the seven. The father of the sins is the original homunculus, created by an alchemist using Hohenheim's blood.
Yeah, I really really liked the explanation for Homonculi in the original anime. Too bad most of it is really sub-par compared to Brotherhood.
I prayed to god that he prove to me that angels are real, and then you guys posted a video. 🙏
dude...
Imma wait for the edited before I sleep😭
I gotta sleep but looking forward to watching the reaction later :D
i only recently found out that amestris comes from the name of the queen of persia, and xerxes from the name of her husband, who was the king, not for nothing xerxes the nation shown in this episode represents persia, which is precisely where alchemy was born
Did you guys skip the post credits scene? Waited all the way through and then the reaction cut lol
No it's there. Go to 22:30
The true protagonist in Fullmetal Alchemist Botherhool is Hohenheim!🤣🤣🤣
The true MVP of this series is actually Trisha Elric. That’s emphasized in episode 27. She is the guiding force behind her entire family’s actions.
I’ve been so much waiting for you to reach this episode and have a glimpse of the Hohenheim’s true nature !!
There’s also an extremely neat detail that you can appreciate after this episode : most amestrians have blue eyes like it was showed during scar flashback however Hohenheim, Edward and Alphonse all have blond hair and golden colored eyed, wich are the most recognizable physical traits among the inhabitants of Xerxes (since the three of them are the last direct descendants of this population)
Most Amestrians have dark eyes. Check if you don't believe me. The blue eyes in Scar's flashback were just a depiction, probably made to contrast with red eyes of Ishvalans.
Finally we got this episode reaction🥰🥰
yeah, still one of my favourite episodes of the show and probably In my top 20 from episodes of all time. i really love hohenheim and i feel awful for him, like... imagine so glad you ended up skipping the ova also, i knew from the start that you would end up feeling guilty about what you called him in the beginning 😂😂 don't get me wrong, still not ideal that the boys ended up growing up without a father, but at least he has a good excuse also, i just realised the voices from the fullmetal alchemist cards in the middle change in the dub (even though they're both in english) because in the sub version the voice in the slave 23 cards is werid as hell
I've been waiting for this episode since the day you started trash talking Hohenheim, lol. The discussion for this episode is gonna be great without a doubt. Can't wait.
lol, same, i'm sad because i have to go to bed if i don't want to fuck up my sleeping schedule, i stayed a bit later than usual because i knew they were posting this. i guess i'll watch the discussion tomorrow morning while having breakfast
Fun Fact: Hohenheim was named after the alchemist Paracelsus (civil name: Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim).
Just clocked out of work, such timing <3
My fav trope, the episode where we find the fathers backstory this and “this day” are peak
Really looking forward to hearing your discussion on this one. IDK if you'll remember or not, but if you watch the first OP again, the first ten or fifteen seconds actually show young Hohenheim in his Xerxes clothes, with the big transmutation circle behind him. EDIT: Haha, wow you do remember! Impressive.
the edited one can't come soon enough
