I think it's time for the homonculi and the upper echelon to quit and go home already. They're so incompetent the lot of them, they could not even steal a toy from a child even if their life is depended on it.

You are SO missing the point of this episode.

Besides, I thought you were done with this series.

Animation was much better compared to the previous episode, but it really seems like they're stretching things out. It's obvious to stay behind the manga, but otherwise a good episode.

It's not about Mustang overpoweredly kicking Envy's ass, it's about Mustang getting consumed by his rage and lust for vengeance.

You don't like Crowning Moments of Awesome laid one right after another (like they are in this series0 do you?

I'm still new here, but I guess kodial's the resident hater of FMAB here?

I guess he at least keeps things interesting... on Animesuki there are literally no dissenting opinions of the show, it's all about "OMG SO AWESOME."

Every. Single. Episode. Since 40. (Before that, they were harsher. Animesuki's FMAB forum was one of those I mentioned where the manga readers were seriously unhappy after episode 30)

that was a amazing episode D=
only 10 more ;___;


I didn't even watch the preview but I could tell... Roy wouldn't ask Hawkeye to come along with him to help, he'd probably want her to leave so she'd be safe. D: Or something like that - or maybe just that he'd never turn his back when he knew a doppleganger was walking about...

Awesome episode~ Roy is getting pretty scary though. Scar is right. D:

Wtf man another cliffhanger. It happens to every episode. WHY THE CLIFFHANGERS NOO!

So I wonder who was that in the end. Was it the real Hawk eye or was it Envy? Damn that pussy bastard Envy for running away. I guess Mustang is really a strong fighter when it comes to this type of enemies. I just loved the look on his eyes when he was burning Envy, wow so furious.

Mustang gave good of an explosion to these shitfu*kers homunculi. I knew that he's the only one who can probably beat the crap out of them. And then... I'm not sure if Envy turned into Mustang to trick Hawkeye or it's the opposite =\

This was so damn amazing! Best episode so far (and that's saying a lot since this is episode 53 of an awesome series). First, I loved the way they were using the info and King Bradley's wife to get the approval of the public. And then there was all of that epicness with Roy... Not to mention the awesome cliffhanger. Who's Envy?

I'm guessing that "Mustang's" Envy and that Hawkeye somehow realised it, since she has her guns. Envy can duplicate people and uniforms, but I don't think it had any time to prepare additional props.

If I'm wrong, Mustang is in trouble...

I always loved this part in the Manga, but it was even better seeing it animated in the god like fashion it was here. Roy Mustang is a fucking beast. Nice cliffhanger.

Impressive episode the radio show hoax was something quite nice and funny and than the huge battle between Roy and Envy was quite impressive he's really using dirty things to get to him... Either way hope Roy will be fine after that cliffhanger ending!

another amazing episode as always :D

lol the radio station using it to make it look like Roy is good :P

ithe best part was the radio guy acting like he's being threaten XD

that Brosh finally hears the news :P

guess the people are getting rallied seeing the government covering things up.

the Northern Briggs has some big tanks :D

Roy just burned those Immortal army in an instant.

finally Envy reveals that he was the killer.

Roy being FURIOUS

his face and attack is much more deadly than his encounter with Lust.

man getting fire on the eyes must have hurt like hell!!

man Roy's gonna fry him, regenerate and fry him till he dies!!

one of the shittiest ways to die is to keep experiencing your death till it's over.

FUCK i don't want any of that .___,

yeah Scar seems to be much softer to Roy despite annihilating the whole Ishbala village

damn that Envy trying to impersonate Hughes.

guess Roy already accepted that Hughes is truly gone for good.

man Envy feeling all that flames

and what the hell Riza?!?!?!

don't do anything stupid, just follow Roy or else you'll just complicate things.

i actually thought the Real Riza manages to see the fake Roy, that's why she aimed.

but with that kind of smirk, it's definitely Envy.

oh man i wonder how will Roy be able to distinguish the real Riza from Envy.

probably her tatoo??

pretty sure Envy can't replicate the exact person if he can't see it, as evidence with his encounter with Hughes with his Ross impersonation without a mole.

man only 11 episodes left :(

It's very unfortunate, however, the idiocy about not letting Roy finally kill Envy. The notion that if he kills Envy out of revenge for Hughes it turn his soul towards the dark side (as if he were some kind of Jedi or whatever) shows a sadly shallow understanding of the human spirit. We can harbor all kinds of emotions and labeling them as "bad" or "good" based on social morality is just nonsense. Killing Envy is the right thing to do (as all post I read in this forum seem to agree) because he is evil. That in itself would not make an almost saintlike upright person like Mustang become evil. It's the same shallow notion of human behavior that makes poor Hughes hesitate when Envy turns into his wife. He KNOWS it's just the looks, and honestly, even if it were MY wife, if she were trying to kill me I would just as easily kill her. Somebody is trying to kill you. If you loved that person, that very fact should cancel that love. But that doesn't even come into the equation: Hughes KNEW it was NOT his wife. So, there was no reason for him to hesitate. That's one of the small things that can really damage a good plot: making your characters behave stupidly because you can't thing of a good solution to move the plot forward.
Anyway, yes, Roy frying Envy over and over again is one of my favorite moments in the whole series. He is way more my kind of hero than Ed and Al, with their naive "I must save everyone" behavior (and that only works out because the author/scriptwriter cheats to help them out).

Zero emotional impact.
Reminds me of when Kratos beat Zeus the second time in GoW3; the enemy's already been beaten once and hadn't done much asshole-ish things for me to feel the satisfaction of his death, just... meh. And it was sooooo dragged out.

Also, the hommunculi are not even representing their own traits, they're getting all DBZ-y...

Overall none of the hommunculi is 1/100th as good as his 2003 counterpart.

As for the cliffhanger, if Envy = Hawkeye, then that could be seen from a mile away
if Envy = mustang, then that's pretty cool.

Aaahh, Envy finally is getting that tongue of his torched to death. Thank you Arakawa san for delivering such a satisfying smackdown of him.

Boy is Mustang caught up in his fury! Riza is going to have to bring him down to reality.
