Well that was enjoyable.

I thought the fight scenes were awesome but the stupid first person "putting the viewer in the picture" thing was silly and the animation, especially in those sections was sub-par.

Any other opinions?

that's because it was for an event/ride thing at universal Studios Japan....

but I agree it was annoying just watching it without being at the park

That was kinda cool, the version I watched someone had made the viewer talk which was amusing, was on YouTube lol.

Pretty interesting concept, but it wasn't anything too special.

Oh damn, I overdid it, sorry Edward - glad he's keeping an eye on me though :3
Funny battle though despite completely throwing away the story from the 2003 series. :D

Oooouuuuu~~~~ I got a compliment from Edward Elric ;D ;D

LOL. I liked the video game first person perspective type of thing going on. Just thought it was a little awks bc they stopped doing it during a chunk of the episode then picked it up again towards the latter half :3

Not too bad, but also not the greatest. The idea of it is good.

The real battle only was around 2 minutes long and the Self-insert bit only happened at the beggining and at the complete end. Meh, could've been better.

It's been such a long time since I last seen any of Fullmetal Alchemist, including att of its iterations. This was such a great refresher, not also beautifully animated with such fluidity but also just as lively and populated with characters.
I honestly dislike how the sudden plot interference with Edward that freed him from his ties just in time to make his comeback on Greed, classic shounen move.

This is one of those things that would be a "360 degree experience" if made today. I wish I could have gone on that ride though.

Feel free to talk to me, I only bite if you ask nicely :D
