Transmutated into a steel statue. Damn Ed, that's brutal.

Also, what the hell is this shitty translation?! Did they use google translate for the entire pilot?

Even in a one-shot, Rose still manages to find a way to be annoying as fuck smh.

Even the one shot of FMA manages to have a better plot than 90% of other shounens and it was also the best one shot I've read to date, intriguing, comic and extremelly enjoyable, that's why this franchise is my favorite of all time - Score: 5/5.

Yup that was pretty good. Turning the guy into steel was pretty brutal though. I liked the chapter but I'm glad they chose a different one in the end for the manga, the story with Rose and the religious cult is much better imo. 8/10, pretty good for a one-shot.
