| My opinion is that the only reason Greed doesn't go full armor here is because it would make the fight one sided. If you don't plan good tension ahead of time, manufacture it. Ed's fight with greed was superior since he came up with a clever way to defeat the shield. I despise the trope of cutting bullets out of the air. It's slightly more tolerable since King Bradley has his magic eye, but when a bullet is likely going at least 1200 ft/sec, you wouldn't be able to move your body quickly enough to react even if you could see it. Cutting the tank shell in half is utterly ridiculous. Just face the music and don't have someone charge a force with firearms unless they have some defensive advantage (like Greed's ultimate shield or Sloth's naturally hard skin - wait, why is that a thing? Seems stupid to natively give one homunculus a power that is the superpower of another homunculus.) |
| Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day! |
| The series keep getting better and better as they come closer to an end, this episode was especially awesome, I mean imagine Bradley in his prime years, none would be standing a chance. |
| Another episode, another badass entrance. This time it was Fu. The old man's here to payback the son of a bitch Bradley for taking her granddaughter Lan Fan's arm for good, let alone protecting Ling Yao and helping the others save the country essentially. He showed fear for a bit with shaking, but quickly shoke that off with resolve to take his ass down. |
| YOU'VE GOT SOME TOUGH ABS, HUH? The poor Briggs soldiers, and of course Armstrong herself. They're getting massacred with the arrival of Bradley, and also have to be painted as the villains to keep their story in line with the appearance of Bradley. |

| I'm sure I'm not the first one to say this, but Greed's English dub actor is really solid The English dub for this series is generally great, but Greed really shines when he's on screen |
