That non-word Lola gave to describe her excitement at the beginning. 😆😆I can relate
I'm not really following the logic behind May leaving to take Envy back to her country. The only secret to immortality that Envy knows is how to make philosopher's stones out of people. Maybe I'm misremembering, but I could have sworn May herself said that she wouldn't want the emperor to have access to that knowledge.
The last Intro is the best thing you"ll ever listen
the only intro that I don't like that much is the third one. All the others I have some difficulty in ranking them because they are all incredible
If I had a nickel for every time Lola tossed her pillow when an Elric brother reunited with their father, I would have two nickels…which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
also if i'm being honest i kinda find this form on envy a bit cute... same with the dwarf in the flask when he was just that. can't help it, it's the squeaky voices, specially in the sub 😂 when envy was being all smug and refused to answer and just turned their head? that was cute af lol
i was listening to the review but not watching it because i was cooking while it was playing and imagine my surprise when i went to grab a 7up from the fridge and took a peek at the screen and see milena with a fucking pair of scissors doing her nails? lol i always found that scene with yoki hilarious, poor man thought nobody cared if he died. olivier and alex's scene also hilarious... until it's not. tbh that's one of the only things i do not like about her character (not saying it's bad writing, just a part of her character i'm not fond of). i understand that she values royalty towards her comrades, but surely she knows what happened in ishval was a genocide on the military arms, so i don't get why she says alex is a coward because of leaving when it's clear he just didn't want to kill innocent people.
I feel that part about Olivier, but I like to think there’s more to her anger than that. She’s always had problems with Alex’s “cowardice” and I guess she’s in part angry he joined the battle in the first place if he was just going to be disgraceful and run away. She dislikes his lack of resolve and thinks he isn’t fit to be a soldier. Which also has me wondering where she was during the war in ishval? Did she choose not to join? Did her post in Briggs keep her away from the war? Because she also dislikes Roy a lot—not sure if it’s for his war crimes or for a completely different reason. She’s shown with the mercy she gave to her men in the tunnel that she’s not about absolute power and ruthlessness, which is why I’m really curious about the entirety of why she reacted like that towards Alex.
Since you are a little uncertain with the map: Here is the map of Amestris, where I have marked in light blue the places you know. Pink is the mining town where the story of Yoki took place. https://imgur.com/a/YWxWzfN What is also easy to see from this map is that Ed and Al's hometown is very close to the Civil War of Ishval. And where there are many corpses, there are also many diseases that spread. So the fact that Trisha got sick and died can also be connected to the civil war in Ishval.
I noticed you commented on May's age, saying she's "like 6", but she's actually in the 11-12 area! She's just on the short side lol.
"explain your smolness"
