Tons of soldiers are dead, i feel pity for them, Mustang's not to kill attitude in the beginning ended in a massacre at central. /me sniffs.


Mustang's soldiers still havent' killed anyone. Falman is a Briggs soldier, and the Briggs soldiers have been killing central troops from the get go.


That's not what he's saying, what he's saying is that if Mustang's group had been killing Central troops like Briggs did, there would have been fewer Central soldiers for the counterstrike at the main gate. Maybe then, the Briggs squad there could have held the gate if not against Bradley, at least against the Central army.

So I guess we've basically settled the Greed armor thing, he's not armoring up because he's a narcissistic moron who loves to show off his face.

I love every single moment of it! The best part was the arrival of Ling!
And I wonder what'll happen to Olivia since the guys from Capital Radio blamed it all at her.

B. Give me back my fort or I will sink your battleship.. oops.. I mean tank (Bradley)?


Sigh, what a great episode.

The action in this show never ceases to amaze me. Bradley isn't my favorite, but I've got to admit that he is pretty badass. I loved seeing him take down everybody so easily. Plus, the fight he had with Ling was great too. I'm glad gramps showed up again. It looks like we're going to see him at his finest next week.

Epic episode was epic. Can this series get any more epic? Bradley vs Tank was so badass, I thought the tank drivers were cool in their own right, too, with their not giving up until the end, down to the last guy taking out a gun where a tank didnt work. :D
Blergh.

Guess no one's commenting on Bradley's sword. It's very strong. What material is that to even cut concrete, tank tires and bullets and Buccaneer's weapon. I guess it's with the user, Wrath...

Episode was fast paced and epic! Fuhrer President King Bradley just owned!
Hohenheim's past and Father's new form was also win!

Next episode, one will say farewell... Only 7 more episodes to go. Can't wait for the next episode and the latest chapter of the manga!!

Alien indeed, it was the very first thing that crossed my mind as well when I saw that black slick body and head with the iconic drooling mouth=P

Very awesome episode with plenty of kick ass action. Especially from the Führer himself, almost got goosebumps when he charged head on and annihilated that tank without breaking a sweat (^.^)
And I'm actually quite glad we don't get to see much of Ed or Al either, because for some reason those two always make retarded choices and just end up annoying me...

Ok, he's not even one of my favourite characters but man, gotta admit that Bradley tops everybody in this anime in terms of awesome and manly. EVERYBODY. Deny and suffer.

Also, GREEDLING. I missed you. I MISSED YOU. Can't freaking wait for the next episode x3

I figured that Greed becomes slower when he's in his carbon form. But I never understood his powers. Homunculus are (nearly) immortal. Then why make armor? He can regenerate anyway >_>

Not sure about this slower thing, but the fact that he can regenerate doesn't mean he can't have his arms cut off, for example ;) Which would be a serious problem, even if only for a minute before they regrow, don't you think? Homunculi feel the pain associated with their wounds regardless of the fact that they can heal themselves.

Another awesome, action packed, breathtaking episode. You have to love this show.

That old man was really fucking fast. Ninjas are dangerous people age doesn't slow them down. Unfortunately from the next title it doesn't look like his gonna make it out of this alive.

I have no idea what exactly is Homunculus doing and how does the fact that Hohenheim talked to the souls inside him, attacks can hit the other guy with out him having to do anything.

Bradley is Matrix fast. Avoiding bullets like that.

But I was wondering why Greedling would not place a full body armour which will give him a fighting chance against Bradley? any1?


What i am wondering is why doesn't he pick up a sword also. Since he learned from Lin then he must be good with swords too. Two swords will improve his fighting potential.

Looks like I was wrong... the next episode will be the sad episode.

Also, looking at posts, I can't believe more people haven't read the manga. It is handled much better than the anime adaption, especially when needing to be more direct.

All of the posts wishing Greedling would go full armor, I thought Ling's swordfighting scenes were some of the most badass combat scenes in the anime; I'd rather see him not fighting barehanded.

What swordfighting scenes? Greed's armored hands might as well be swords. We're annoyed because if Greed would get over his narcissistic damn self and just FREAKING ARMOR UP, he would be unbreakable.

Remember in episode 45, Bradley's sword shattered when he tried to hit Greed full force with it. The same sword that could block bullets, chop a cannon shell in half, and destroy tank treads broke when it hit pure carbon fiber. Bradley doesn't have any weapons that can punch through the carbon fiber!

Greed doesn't have an excuse for not armoring up this time. Round 1 of Wrath vs. Greed was because he was caught completely by surprise; he didn't know Bradley was a Homunculus. Round 2 was because Greed was in the middle of a massive freak out and wasn't thinking straight. Final Round doesn't have any excuses.

If subsequent episodes do explain why he isn't going full armor, then I will eat my words.

i dont care if he doesnt use his full body armour or not...he doesnt have a chance against bradley.....and i hope to see kodial here.....A BAD GUY IS WINNING in this series....wanna know wat he has to say now...

if u missed the last episode , i will tell ya , father tricked hoho in the previous episode , attacked him from behind , and started absorbing the souls present in hohenheim . . The process had to be stopped because , father couldn't find the philosopher's stone in hohenheim anymore . .

all hohenheim is doing now , is controlling those souls ....(the souls father absorbed from hoho) to destroy father's container........In which he failed miserably :(

For those wondering about Greed's armor, I had two theories as to why. First would be the narcissism/overconfidence (which has already been addressed), and I feel he may go all out after leading Bradley on or seeing Fu die or something. If Ling takes control, he may use the full armor. Second, I figured he only has so much armor to use, so he's condensing it all in his arms to withstand the blows, rather than thinning it out by spreading it out all over his body.

I third that :) lol . . This is actually the most logical explanation to why greed isn't going to full armour body mode :) really . . Makes sense . .
I'm kinda surprised because of a low key response to such an awesome episode . Can't wait for the next episode , cause it just gets better from now on . .
