KING BRADLEY: WRATH OF THE BLACK FORCES

[@dolomaticus1180]

King Bradley in BOTH VERSIONS of FMA, was such a menace, people went out of their way to either avoid him, or throw everything at the man to get him out of the way. This is probably one of the best villains to be created, Anime or not: You understood why he was that way, and at times you had empathy for the man, BUT you never forgot he was the bad guy and Bradley NEVER pretended to be justified or the hero of his own story. The man knew who he was, and what he was there for and killed everybody in the way of that goal.

Bradley’s line as he pulls up on everyone, “ Do they really expect me to make a mockery of myself by entering through the backdoor of my own palace?” was one of the coldest lines I have ever heard. He wanted the smoke and he made sure that everyone there knew.

[@SoldierSpiderx]

This is a homunculus who ages and doesn’t regenerate. He’s essentially 50 or 60 years old and he was a complete challenge to all these people. It’s never flat out said, but everyone there should be grateful they didn’t face Bradley if he was in his prime or could regenerate and Rest in peace Ed Blaylock (King Bradley) your voice will not be forgotten.

@@bluemassgamer17 True, when Heinkel was attacking him he wasn't even destroying any of his souls

[@crazykirsch]

@@bluemassgamer17 The problem is that throughout the entire series Pride is bested or fought to a standstill by multiple people far inferior to Bradley in combat. Even when he has the element of surprise he fails to kill his target 2/3 times with his only success being the briggs men in the tunnel. The only way Pride wins vs Bradley is in total darkness and without weapons or anything to create sparks/light. Now if you are talking Pride outside his human vessel then I think it would turn into a draw with neither able to hurt the other. The only people who 1v1 prime Bradley are Father and Hohenheim because their stones' allow mass, instant transmutation and could fairly easily drown/crush/suffocate any human and outlast anyone in a battle of attrition. Not much even Bradley could do if they create a gigantic pit for him to fall into and then transmute a 10'-thick airtight steel coffin.

The coldest part about King Bradley is that the creator of FMA even confirmed that, if he had been in his prime, the half the characters would have died before the halfway point of the story. Which is crazy when you keep in mind that Bradley is the only Homunculus *WITHOUT* a healing factor, super strength etc. He was just the absolute peak of what a human could do. Nothing more, nothing less. The only advantage he had was his eye tellling him his opponent's exact weak spots and where to strike for maximum damage.

I love how on paper, King Bradley is the weakest homunculus. He lacks the regenerative immortality that is standard of the other homunculus, and while his ability is broken, it is heavily dependent on personal skill. Pride can weaponize literal darkness, Lust has razor-sharp claws and her intelligence, Envy is a shape-shifting tank, Greed is temporarily bullet-proof, and Sloth is a tank with the speed of a bullet-train (if motivated). In spite of that, nearly all the Homunculus respect him.

[@renamamiya5712]

It's your second statement that does it, I saw one of the comment that did FMA confirmed that if Bradley was revealed in his prime, he would beat everyone's ass even before the coup At some point they might have seen his fighting ability and skill and got impressed by the fact even without the Immortal regeneration ability he can still fight very skillfully and with great speeds, even though he ages its slow compared to normal humans.

Weird thing is that these bad guy characters are normally sneaky and snarky insulting characters that delight in suffering. Bradley is painfully straightforward at everything in a fight. He's charging straight at you, he normally just makes a little small talk in fights over actual facts, and he wants to go straight for kills. He also always drops the smiling eyes closed trope everytime anything gets even slightly serious. Guy ain't playing a character when it's time to fight.

I feel like King Bradley is the example I seen one story explain on how dangerous the one character without healing powers in a team of badass immortals/mutants is so dangerous. All the others let themselves get hurt or do the occasional stupid ass move to scare anyone. Someone like Bradley can’t play around and act crazy like the immortals/healers so he ends up being crazy to the others because of how skilled he is to everyone else.

[@BonazaiGirl]

Exactly. There’s always something absurdly cool about how the most, for lack of a better term, _vulnerable_ character who compared to others would normally be considered weak, but because of that so-called lack of invulnerability or healing powers, they _don’t_ screw around. Kinda like Batman or Guts and other countless characters: it’s primarily skill that gets them far rather than powers.

Because its implied that the other homunculus power's require them to burn through their philosopher's stones power, and Wrath kinda didnt had one (well, he had it, but it only had 1 soul) imagine how overpowered this man would be if father gave him another stone? Regeneration + Coming back to his prime + an actual body changing ability (like greed's hardening or envy's shapeshifting) on top of his passive ability

[@Moldereyes1999]

I mean, he did have a body that was still superior to most humans. In his human life, he was trained to the absolute PEAK for his future role.

Not exactly. His strength comes from WHY he lost the ability to regenerate. The philosopher's stone contains hundreds of souls, which the homonculi use both to fuel their powers and to tap into as their extra lives. Bradley came from a special experiment where instead of building a homonculus from the stone, they shove it into a human to see what happens. Everyone else went mad except for Bradley. His solution? Fight and kill EVERY soul inside the stone until only the strongest one survives. He used the damn stone as a training course.

What I love about Bradley’s last words towards Lan Fan is that he’s actually screwing with her emotions. Lan Fan asked King if he had any last words for his wife, and he didn’t. There are no more words that need pass between them because his wife would understand. That being married, to be the wife of the Fuhrer would mean that you have a solid chance of never being there when your husband dies on a battlefield or murdered in his sleep, and there would be no last words to have from him. The real kicker to this is that he’s aware that Lan Fan has a thing for Ling, the prince, and she has to acknowledge the fact that even if Ling becomes the next ruler, that doesn’t mean people will stop trying to kill him; that there’s a good chance that Ling may get killed someday, and Lan Fan won’t be around to hear his last words.

11:02 Interesting fact. The philosopher stone of wrath when injected into Bradley, all the souls in the stone all killed each other and Bradley was the sole survivor but he doesnt even know if he was the original Bradley or just one of the souls. Its also the reason he can age and can't regenerate like the others, because his stone basically has no more power. He gets a few boosts but his stone is basically drained. Which I thinks thats why so many died during the Wrath Experiment, the stone literally killed them. Which would mean wraths stone is the most dangerous to absorb and Greeds would be the safest since Greed would want more people around instead of killing his host.

[@IWKS1]

So the dude is this busted and his stone barely has any power? Dayym

[@doritos4956]

​@TheGameMage_ sad thing is that if he had a fully changed stone, he would probably die earlier like after the human transmutation of mustang Because pride would wanna recharge and while pride would be pretty weak die to the transmutation, father is there and we all know pride the fav child like he even looks like flask father

[@DeusGamez]

i dont remember it ever stating the souls of his stone cannibalized eachother but what i do recall is that they were trying to overwhelm him because the souls within were basically those of his peers and colleagues an were trying to have him succumb to fear but he wouldnt let that stand and so he pierced the veil using the wrath that filled his heart on the account of being considered a disposable pawn and guinea pig to the government hence why father names him as his "Wrath" an gives him the homunculus brand. an as for his stone not being powered as strongly as the others its because his philosopher stone is incomplete an was only conceived of a few handful of souls where as those of the others were comprised of entire cities or towns worth of souls so they are naturally more potent. but what Bradley lacks in regenerative properties he more than makes up for with strength and agility and has trained himself to be adept as well as precise with the blade. not too mention he's maxed out on his resilience taking lots of damage that should normally kill an average person. an only losing to Scar because he wanted to die as a human an not a monster.

Fighting Bradley in one of the FullMetal Alchemist games will always haunt me. Everyone else was essentially just a normal fight, but then you get to Bradley and he might as well be a God the way he smites you and any hope you have of winning.

Kid Buu is Gluttony, Madara Uchiha is Envy, Alucard is Greed, Kenpachi Zaraki is Sloth, King Bradley is Wrath, Revy is Lust, and Sosuke Aizen is Pride. Everybody else in the roundtable is a variation of them. Edit: Since a lot of people liked this, I wanna ask, what do you think CJ's next video shall be? I'm thinking of "Yami and the Black Air Force Bulls" 'cause they be packing the heat!

King Bradley/Wrath is one of my favorite characters in general across all media so this was an absolute treat, CJ. I loved the southern-ish accent you gave too. It really does fit because, here in the south, people will talk to you and sound all nice and friendly but there could be a 'WHOLE' different meaning behind their words. It fits perfectly with Wrath. Also, I held it together through the entire video up until the last 15 seconds with the black air forces over where his arms used to be and then I lost it. Been laughing the past ten minutes. Kudos, CJ. Kudos.

[@brandonmyers5448]

Fun fact: pirates often wore eye patches not because they lost an eye, but so that they always had one eye adjusted to the dark. Bradley is no doubt wearing it for the same reason, he took it off in the sewer and after getting flashed.

Bradley smooth walking off as Lust is burned to death is one of his coldest moments.

[@Kaito57]

16:27 I think this is my favorite quote from Wrath in all the series. Imagine being such a menace that you deal with a rebellious take-over of your HQ with the same tone as a disappointed father coming home earlier to find his kids having a party behing his back... the one where he knows his foot is about to end in some disrespectful brat(s) ass(es) !!

Something I noticed whilst watching the video, At 3:00 when Edward is about to hit Bradley with the spear, You can see that Bradleys sword is currently sheathed but in the very next scene.
