Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 10 REACTION!! "Separate Destinations"

[@alexjames4507]

I just realized...Mustang saying that it's raining is a double meaning. Obviously he's crying, but when it rains he's useless and can't do anything, which is why he says it's raining (because Hughes is dead and can't do anything about it).

[@jcastrowhite08]

Mats Martensson it’s that he feels useless

Even now... Every time

[@Lady_Yunalesca]

Ah man, I cry every time. It's the part with Elysia that gets me. It's such a realistic young kid reaction to just not understand what's happening. :( Also, Hughes was only 29 when he died. Oh, and one thing I love about the "It's a terrible day for rain" line that I don't ever really see mentioned is... funerals in TV and movies always take place in the rain. It's visually evocative, but it's also really cliche. Here, though, it's a bright sunny day, and it really does feel wrong. Like it *should* be raining.

[@blueteller]

Quiet, you Homunculus you xD But seriously, it's more about thinking the world should be visibly affected by such tragedy, than demanding a reaction from it. It's a bit different.

[@RealElevenTimes]

@@blueteller They usually do it to add some impact on the scenes. Anime characters are always acting in dramatic ways when epic music plays. If there were no music it would just be silly.

R.I.P. Ed Blaylock, who plays Fuhrer King Bradley in FMA. He was such a talented actor. It really is a terrible day for rain...

[@reader111089]

This is one of those episodes that you definitely need to watch again after finishing the show. Really the whole series is worth multiple viewings, so many hints and clues that you don't realize are there until you know the TRUTH.

[@BrilluxLP]

It is also a storyline that is fleshed out way better in the original series, which is why i would encourage anyone to watch both series

[@biocapsule7311]

In hindsight, brotherhood didn't actually have as good a flow as the manga. The way the plot is lay out for the manga is much better.

[@nahte123456]

This was actually done pretty much on purpose though, it was generally assumed that if you are watching brotherhood, then you already watched FMA, so Brotherhood doesn't even try to flesh out the start as much, just establish what's canon and what's not, so it can flesh out the rest of the story better.

[@Slayton1978]

All is one. When everything unfolds, the entire series comes together into one climatic conclusion.

[@tylerrodriguez9935]

Brendan Horn I see what you did there with "Truth"

[@formoftherapy]

I remember watching the original anime (it fleshes out Hughes more) I cried like hell. Maes Hughes is one of those slightly annoying but unbelievably likable characters, you just never expect them to die, especially so early into a story.

[@3dstuff654]

Yeah I think the music the the original plus the more time spent on it was far superior in Hughes funeral

[@highdefinition450]

he's kind of annoying, until he dies. then you love him and want him back lol

[@dexterscokelab]

although the overall plot in brotherhood is more solid, I really liked the way the og handled emotional parts like the chimera dog and Hughes

[@lewanbroski504]

​@dexterscokelab I don't think I could watch the original for that reason, I feel the weight of Nina and Hughes death here and I've heard it's worse in the og

[@Throne_of_Games]

Me: I am prepared for this... I am prepared for this... I am prepared for this... Elicia: "Why are they putting all that dirt on Daddy?" Me: DAMN IT! I'M NOT READY!!!

[@MsNarusakufan]

"I feel like something bad is gonna happen to his family." Me: *depression intensifies*

[@afroallura3791]

I cried so much more when he died in the original series, because there was so much more build up. That being said, I do prefer this series, so...yeh. Anyway, it all gets even more real from here guys...

[@KarIgo87]

Funeral scene and this "It's a terrible day for rain" line always gets me. My favourite line from Mustang. Second probably would be "Looks like I can get you on your knees after all!" lol P.S. Be careful, *SPOILERS* in comments

[@KarIgo87]

Scene with Envy was great until writers cockblocked Roy and me and practically ruined the whole thing for me. And yeah, I really like his voice in Dub, it's deeper then in original but it fits him more.

[@egeorgiades93]

The second line you mention is even more funny when you realize the Eng V.A's of Roy and Lust are married. Also fun fact the VA's of Lust and Hawkeye were once roommates.

[@Ergoperidot]

What? The envy scene was perfect from start to finish imho.

[@KarIgo87]

I didn't like that they didn't allow Mustang to finish Envy and give him closure. Also it looked like that writers wanted me to feel sorry for Envy in the end. Sorry, but no. It should've been roasted merciless.

[@Ergoperidot]

Different strokes I guess. I feel differently. I think villains should always be humanized, it's what makes them great villains. What's great about Brotherhood is that all of the homonculi were very human, despite looking down on them, and so I think they did that perfectly. But we have different perspectives and that's cool.

[@violacrb]

Your first response to the end of this episode was to wonder if Alphonse has to buy two train tickets?!

[@sj4iy]

I love this episode, but it's still hard to watch. Especially Mustang.

[@blister2two537]

i know none of them cried but watching shane in this is amazing. hes on the verge of crying trying his hardest to keep it in. just watch him when they cut from Armstrong crying. lol its great

[@jacobmonks3722]

Not a spoiler, but Hughes didn't find out their identities, just their intentions.

[@johnribey1861]

1885-1914. fuck, Hughes was young.

[@TheIbney00]

If were going by real world standards, not every random soldier would be an officer. I mean the Elric's have commissioned officers guarding them. In real life it would be at best a Pfc.

[@burningice15]

Ibney00 that's because Edward is a certified State Alchemist. He automatically receives a rank equivalent to a captain.

[@Ali-fx2wo]

Knowing how long it takes everyone else to figure out what’s going on, it’s a real testament to Hughes’ genius that he put it together in episode 10

when mustang said its terrible day for rain i feel that it wasn't just because he was crying. he was also commenting on how useless he felt at that moment. because as the flame alchemist hes useless on a rainy day.

[@bubbles093]

Watching these guys' reactions has me binge-watching the series again (for the fifth time) and I just can't WAIT for them to get to some of the later episodes. I'm on 28 right now, and I'm just like "...PLEASE WATCH MORE EPISODES SOONER THIS SHOW GETS SO GOOD"

[@Blue777Dragon]

Episode 16, in my opinion, is where every episode after that is so good to watch. After episode 10 the episodes are good, but there is always something thrilling in each episode after 16

[@zeemod1556]

truuueee but 19 has the biggest payoff regarding the whole Hughes Arc

[@Kaldurahm1]

[@dantesabbath2107]

boy you guys are going to love what Mustang does later.

[@Trustworthy_McLegitimate]

Hughes was killed NOT just because he knew too much... They knew Mustang loves the guy. They were hoping that killing Hughes will force Mustang to do Human Transmutation, just like all other Sacrifices. Heck, in the middle of the story , Mustang finding out the TRUTH wasnt even a big deal to the people behind everything. Mustang and his team were ALL spared when they attempted the first coup. So the only conclusion I could make was that Hughes was killed just so Mustang would attempt to bring him back to life.

[@CallumDowney]

Rest in peace Ed Blaylock voice of Fuhrer King Bradley who just passed on Wednesday :'( at the young age of 64

[@kevinbell5674]

Hughes found the spoilers to the bad guys entire plan. I'm not even exaggerating he was almost able to figure everything out. He would have been missing only a few details.

[@Dekamory]

"Its a terrible day for rain" one part of any show that gets me every time

[@TheRedLittleGirl]

Indeed, a terrible day for rain. And Mustang is always useless on rainy days. :( DAMMIT SHANE, YOU JINXED IT. Hopefully you won't always be sad. I mean. You will be sad. But not always. Maybe. Also I think it's a good idea to do what Eric suggest and rewatch some episodes. Not that you need to, the anime is very good at reminding you of important plot points, but for the world building information that gets thrown at you a lot in the beginning, it might be a good idea.

[@ImtheMonkeyLord]

HUGHES!!! Oh God it hurts every time.

[@mixednarwhal]

No comments for a year and yet I’ve rewatched this episode and series reaction multiple times over

[@cbrownjc7633]

You know, their reaction here to Lust and Envy made me realize that, if you know nothing about FMA, then you probably can just think Lust, Envy and Gluttony are humans using alchemy, like the Blind Wave crew do. And, given the 1 episode a week format they're doing, they aren't going to find out a lot of stuff for a LONG time. For one, they won't learn the truth about what Envy, Lust, and Gluttony really are until Ep 13. And even then, they'll only get it if they connect the Ouroboros tattoo thing. Spoilers: : : : : Ep 13 is when we first meet Greed, and he just flat out tells you he's a Homunculus, while showing his tattoo. Then in EP 14 you basically meet 6 of the 7 Homunculi that confirms they are all based on the 7 deadly sins, AS WELL AS seeing Father for the first time. But even after all of that, you STILL don't know they have Philosopher's Stones as their heart/core until EP 19.

[@cbrownjc7633]

+Gabriel Tzukishiro Well you'd be surprised the number of people who actually DON'T get it after watching episode 13, and are STILL freakin' confused by it all until it's compelty spelled out at the end of Episode 14. I've seen more than one reaction that didn't understand all of it until the end of Ep 14. Don't assume just because you may have got it all in Ep 13 that everyone else will. It's just like those who don't get that Ed doesn't have to use a transmutation circle because he went through the Door of Truth. The Blind Wave guys themselves still don't get that, and it was pretty much laid out in episode 2.

[@obi8061]

“you think something bad has to happen to his family” oOF

[@piccolojunior9820]

Yeah, in the first show this part was way more impactful because all of the characters were more built up. But it's still a terrible day for rain...

[@TrueAmericanReject]

Congrats, you made it through one of the hardest episodes to get through. Good on you blind wave.

[@PokechuXD]

[@ryugaknight]

[@Sebzero99]

Id really like this to be twice a week. I think it would help you guys remember things. And we'll I just hate waiting Ha

[@thomasmcgraw8778]

this is why I always recommend watching the original before brotherhood. brotherhood blows through stuff like Hughs death under the assumption that you've seen the original series

[@xo.yang1027]

Mustangs its a terrible day for rain gets me every fucking time man

[@GrandGobboBarb]

This is the reason why you want to watch the original before brotherhood, even though brotherhood is better. Because although most of the first 20 episodes of fullmetal alchemist are filler, they really build up the relationship between the boys and Hughes and makes this moment 10000x sadder :(

[@Kyo_Sasaki]

Kit's Not Using KZbin Are you joking? Brotherhood is definitely not better. The original FMA is way better than FMAB.

[@sophiefilo16]

UsuallyInMotion FMAB has better plot execution. When FMA was made, they had to start making things up halfway through because the manga wasn't finished. As a result, a lot of stuff stopped making sense...

[@jacobmonks3722]

Sophie Filo Just binging through the series in about a week, FMA 03 never ceased to make sense. Obviously the reasons behind Hughes death are different, and the Lab 5 incident went in a completely different direction, but I think everything works well in itself. It's an interesting take on the series lore, even if it was technically finished before the original manga.

[@jacobmonks3722]

Also of the first 25 episodes (which equates to the first 10 episodes of Brotherhood), there are only about 5 filler episodes. The one with the ghost town, the 2 with the false Elric brothers (and to be fair they do become a plot point later on), the one with the bandit heists, and there's probably one I'm missing. Everything else plays out in roughly the same manner as in the manga. It also has things Brotherhood does not but the Manga does. The train hostage episode is the canon introduction to Mustang, the Youswell incident is part of 03, but not Brotherhood (and yet Yoki is much more significant in Brotherhood, wrap your head around that), and Fullmetal vs Flame, which is probably my favorite episode ever.

[@jacobmonks3722]

In fact, Brotherhood technically has an episode that is completely filler, that being Isaac the Freezer. Nothing about this episode has any bearing on the plot and it is a very lackluster introduction to some of our favorite characters.

[@204154529]

They made it through this episode much easier than I thought they would. Guess I hype myself up for these big episodes far too much.

[@avsambart]

I bet the Blind Wave crew didn't cry just cos they're were watching it together as a group. Had they watched this episode on their own, I know at least two of them would've openly cried; they looked so close to breaking. I cried so hard at this episode!! Especially when she started asking why they were burying her dad *feels*

[@pixlv6384]

8:17 Who? Us, the viewers? Do you know how long we cried when we saw that scene?

[@Kaldurahm1]

I can handle everything by just a hair's breadth:The mom's ressurected body, Nina, even Hugh's death...but the little girl's voice yelling about not putting dirt on her daddy because he has to go to work? Nope. Done. Absolutely done. Fuckin fuck. I skip that scene every time but just this once, i wanted to see their reactions too. Mistake. I didn't even look at their faces. I just walked away. Damn that scene.
