Greed has entered the Chat *Bradley Appears* Greed has left the Chat

[@ponquin]

They didn't know each other. Bradley was referring to him actually killing him multiple times at that moment. Homunculus are physically human, so everytime they suffer a lethal attack that would normally kill a human, they die too but would get resurrected immediately and regenerates.

[@sleepyguy716]

26:00 You know who could play King Bradley in real life. Omni-Man, another animated character lol 😂

[@ijayespinoza]

She said Gordon first so I think she meant Omni-Man’s VA, JK Simmons, but was blanking on his name. (He plays Commissioner Gordon in Justice League).

[@barroslucasc]

​@@ijayespinoza Omni-Man is J.K. Simmons

[@ijayespinoza]

@@barroslucasc …that’s what I said…

[@barroslucasc]

@@ijayespinoza I'm so sorry, I'm stupid. I somehow read that you were blanking on his name and then I tried to be helpful xD

[@Perfectionist480]

Don Frye would be perfect

[@cosesu8929]

Sloth meaning just laziness is a modern simple definition of the term. Paraphrasing, but Sloth is also being apathetic to yourself and your place in the world, or just being apathetic to the world in general

[@iselwyr5411]

A waste of potential in another turn of phrase

[@cosesu8929]

@@iselwyr5411 ^^^ I believe this is were the laziness part comes from

[@Max465]

So just to clarify. Martell's Blood Hitting Al didn't cause him to see the truth. It just shocked his soul so his memories of seeing the truth came back to him. Doing it again wouldn't cause him to see more truth

[@DanteRU0312]

Something that shouldn't need clarification, but here we are as a society.

[@Mushruums]

Episode 14 is one of the best reaction episodes among reactors. Then episodes 16-26 are all crazy back to back

[@SubzeroBlack68]

Episode 14 always hits like a truck.

[@darknessunknown4384]

In case you're wondering how Bradley found Greed's lair, there was several chapters worth of content that got cut out; that would've explained it. To summarize: Ed had left to renew his state license; which is why he wasn't around when Al got kidnapped; and while there, he ran into Bradley and Armstrong. Ed mentioned that he was visiting his teacher, and Bradley expressed interest in meeting her, claiming she'd make a great state alchemist; of course you know the real reason. Ed told him it would be a bad idea, since Izumi isn't fond of the military, and left. Meanwhile, Izumi found out about Al's kidnapping, and quickly tracked down and confronted Greed. They fought for a short while, before Al (who was willing to negotiate with Greed) asked her stop and let Ed know what happened. When Ed returned, he discovered that Bradley had followed him, claiming to be on vacation. They went to Izumi's shop, and Sig gave Bradley a hard time about Izumi's whereabouts. Armstorng then stepped in, and he and Sig had a flex off; that ended with the two shaking hands. After that comedic scene, Izumi stepped out and told Ed what had happened. At the mention of Greed, Bradley's demeanor changed; and he quietly left to get reinforcements.

[@T4Eagle137]

I never realized until you mentioned it how strange it was that Bradley just happened to show up at the Devil's Nest. This puts all of that into perspective.

[@crowthewicked8344]

I really need to read the manga

[@PetarSon]

I think Greed explained the weaknesses of the other Homunculus the best (it's a shame that he is the only one who was defeated in a technical way). In this episode we learn that the Homunculus are immortal but not completely, because Wrath said how many more times he needs to kill Greed before he stays dead, which means that he has a certain number of lives, and that minor wounds do not pose a threat to him other than losing lives, also whenever he puts a shield around himself, the shield always appears from the ends of his arms until they end around his head, and since he cannot create his shield until he heals, cutting off his arms puts him in a very vulnerable position, as his body is just a normal human with no arms, and we also see that Homunculus can be "paralyzed" if the red dots on their body are pierced by something, like we see where Wrath left the swords stuck in Greed which stops Greed from using his abilities. Greed is the perfect representation of an almost invincible opponent who you can't defeat with just pure force if he is completely in his armor, but you have to use special tactics or use his ego against him (more or less catch him off guard, and don't let up with attacks), this is a really amazing show, and all this can be learned with just a few sentences, and mostly from visual telling, which is very difficult to include in the story sometimes, but I love it when it is applied at this level, it is really awesome.

[@lightningg252]

Hmm, if we're going by appearance, Bradley looks like Tom Selek if he were 10 years younger and absolutely yolked. He's got the right voice tone too

[@TheOneInYellow]

Jeezus, your post episode 13 discussion is awesome, and well thought out! Loads of foreshadowing, and you got a good chunk of theories hashed out based of the excellent writing from episodes up to that point. I'm so glad to join you on your journey exploring one of the greatest anime's ever created!

[@TDoughter23]

Nope, Tucker thought he was on the cutting edge, but the military had fully integrated human chimera for a while now. Even sacrificing his daughter only got him slightly closer to the breakthrough already completed.

[@SnowyWolborg]

Which is exactly why when Envy revealed that Tucker had been murdered that she responded by caling him a "little nothing." They already knew Tucker was a third rate alchemist.

[@Delta-sj9dy]

Greed's flaw is that he can't regenerate and shield at the same time.

[@niknokseyer]

This anime (and show) is so good. It’s so deep on so many levels.

[@Shax22132]

One of the many aspects of this show that I enjoy is how smart both the protagonists and the antagonists are.

[@TheWindcrow]

Spidey, you became my favorite Normie just b/c of the team you're rocking! Go Colts.

[@terryjohnson5579]

Also Martel was the snake the crocodile was a character we didnt see do anything

[@borjankosarac3645]

Several of the more ancillary chimeras from the manga had their characterisation and scenes cut, so they’re just there to add to Greed’s group until Bradley’s forces slaughter them. The four central ones were kept because they have roles to play.

[@terryjohnson5579]

Ah yes the show where they just find new ways to traumatized they teenage protagonist and his kid brother over and over until they become stronger.

[@GJames-Legend101]

These are 2 of my favorite episodes of the anime, Bradley really did not have to do greed like that though 😅😂🤣.

[@ackkenan2346]

Who would have guessed that FÜHRER KING BRADLEY was a bad guy?! But in all seriousness, this is one of my favourite episodes and it just gets better from here. Also, RIP Greed, you were cool and I wish you were in the show more

[@jeepersmcgee3466]

the reveal that the military has already damn near perfected creating homonculi adds so much tragedy to Shao Tucker's story. After everything he did, his entire certification was a sham, as he was being used to project the image that no one could create homonculi. Nina died to propogate a lie.

[@MaliciousGrim05]

Chimeras capable of speech* is what Tucker was working on, but yeah, he was basically just a tool to keep one of many secrets obscured away

[@jeepersmcgee3466]

@@MaliciousGrim05 right, thanks for the clarification. Idk why I omitted that

[@junglekxngtalksanime]

Greed is my 2nd favourite homunculus...right after Bradley

[@AnonymousGamerDB]

Other way around for me. As great as Bradley is his purpose is to be an attack hound. Greed selfishness makes him act in unpredictable ways which is always fun. Bradley is a menace tho. He shows up and bodies get left behind

[@MichaelaEvans]

Spidey was right, Martel was part snake 🐍😌

[@Polymathically]

There is so much foreshadowing going on, it's crazy looking back on it. I love it whenever Wrath fights in these early episodes. They're brief, but the mask slips _just_ enough to get a glimpse of what he's truly capable of.

[@jtoorare]

This show is so peak can't wait to watch yall see the rest lowkey my #1 anime 😂🙏🏾

[@xcmvp2007]

Step on me, Izumi

[@LeopoldSimmons-b4d]

I love king Bradley

[@MichaelaEvans]

I know its been awhile for you Rana, but you've seen the 7DS. So you should definitely be sure of what the seven deadly sins 😄

[@scruz07]

Has anyone ever thought of Izumi vs Bradly?

[@Tako-Supreme]

If she had her inner organs her stamina would be peak, but I don't she kill Bradly. She could maybe injury him badly.

[@VinnieMF]

Both prime Izumi and organ lacking Izumi lose. I'd put her more around Mustang and Scar, which are both weaker than Bradley.

[@lzniR]

I dont think anyone can beat Bradley 1v1 if both were healthy and no bs.

[@alexfox6093]

Fire episode!!!

[@Funnygenderman]

This is a crazy set of episodes and onward, but I gotta mention how damn cute this Rana fit is omfg

[@MARYWTHER]

Poor little Selim, yknow 🥲 About the chimeras from humans, it's also implied that the Army created them right after the Ishvalan war, so way wayyyy before Tucker started doing his own chimeras, which are way less evolved than the ones created by the Military. It's also an interesting question to raise, as to why the Military pretended that Tucker's work was groundbreaking, when it was not AT ALL, and it could've saved several lives.

[@TheWindcrow]

27:00 TY Editor! lol

"This kid's going to be used for something" o.O O.o Maaaaaaaybe

[@cawreveiwer2010]

she keeps trying to be a step ahead and reading the subtitles.

[@angelb33ts]

The seven deadly sins, also called Cardinal sins, are: Pride, Greed, Wrath, Envy, Lust, Gluttony and Sloth

[@rashawnince1474]

"we gonna ask you some questions too mf"🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ThePenpachi]

Spidey in those first 10 seconds saying some wild ish.

[@SnowyWolborg]

Greed has never met Bradley, before. Remember, he's been separated from the other homunculi for about 100 years, and Bradley specifically mentioned that he himself is only just coming up on being 60 years old.

[@efrenarevalo2025]

Ultimate eye, Ouroboros Tattoo... Normies: Who are you? What is he!? SMH

😂 Pat is big tired

[@richardsanchez9073]

You guys are sweet. Nice job! Thanks.

[@Eric-gp3hi]

King Bradley is a very nuanced character. If you guys ever have the chance check out the 2003 series. It’s much darker and mature while having a different tone.

[@borjankosarac3645]

But a far inferior version of Bradley, aka The Best FMA villain. Also an inferior Kimblee, aka The Second Best FMA villain…

pat was nodding out hard in this one. is he good? Did you film this late at night and he was tired or something?

[@losdef1283]

Y'all should do a skit where you pronounce all the anime terms wrong and it just gets worse as it keeps going 😁

Bulls are cows.

[@CaffeinatedKing]

I'm not sure the fancy lead up/transition stuff is necessary, it doesn't add any entertainment value for me as a viewer and it just seems like unnecessary filler that I'm likely to skip past. I also don't understand why reaction channels do the "Coming up..." thing at the start, I'm already watching the video, do your intro discussion and lets get on with the show. I apologize if this comes across as harsh, but less is often more.
