Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - Episode 24 - Inside the Belly - Group Reaction

[@DebbyB472]

The reason why Ed never killed anyone is that Mustang kept assigning him for missions involving the brothers research. He never had to be "on the field" and do the dirty work. Despite pissing the brothers of, Roy really cares for them. That's why he's one of the best in this series

[@33amra33]

Go back and watch the episode where Colonel Hughes was murdered. You will realize he had already figured out all we know so far about the bad guys plans, and more. He was truly awesome and such a smart badass

[@jaklongshot9056]

Pride was neither the spider or the butterfly. It was the lamp.

[@Step43099]

jak longshot best answer I’ve seen. Kinda crazy how true it is lmao

[@brushark9090]

Aw c'mon man, don't spoil it :(

[@Step43099]

Who? Me? Or him?

[@MMmmmVarley]

That explains their bright ideas.

[@Avocado11]

Bradley will rub the lamp and Pride will grant him wishes.

[@Jonathan331]

Chris: "It's VERY cold." Marketta: "It is." ... Suraj: "I'm okay."

[@lalalalisa41]

I always get major chills with that ending. I also love how Mustang was wondering what pit of hell they ended up in and then we see Ed in what appears to be literal hell. I believe that skeleton was one of the followers of Father Cornello, the one that walked in on Envy shifting back to normal in front of Lust and Gluttony. Also, when Ling keeps asking the whole "how many people are inside you", he's most likely referring to the philosopher stone since it is made up of human lives.

[@SnowyWolborg]

Mei is the girl. Shao Mei is the panda. Also, notice how despite Bradley being the ruler of the country(publicly at least) he expressed casual interest in stepping down from his position. But Pride basically told him "you're not _allowed_ to do that." Even though Pride didn't snitch on Wrath to Father, he still let him know that Wrath isn't permitted to go off script and do what he wants. It's a subtle hint to how Bradley has little personal power. And yes, the military senior staff, essentially officers of brigadier general rank and higher, are all corrupt.

[@sancheramos6777]

Ms Armstrong isn't corrupt

[@butcanyoudothis3320]

Rough Gamer This series has been out for years, do not complain about spoilers lmfao

[@butcanyoudothis3320]

Also, that comment about the staff is a pretty broad stroke. The entire upper ranks aren't corrupt, but those within Bradley's circle are.

[@ultraskyler5459]

eh, it more like explaining this they may have missed. They already know 'father' is the boss. no spoilers really

[@hellowhat890]

Mei is the girl. Basically, she named her panda after herself. Shao Mei in chinese to english is literally translated as "Little" Mei. Shao means little. :)

[@TimoKanal]

I love how Chris is actually the one who remembers the most of all of them, like names etc. The others seemed a bit confused the whole episode, lol. Still a great reaction, The Fullmetal Four have become one of my favorite reaction group :^)

[@biggains1]

Yea, and I do enjoy these guys reactions, definitely. But damn do they seem to be confused and lost ALL the time, every episode.

[@highdefinition450]

I love how they all have unique names and he's just... Chris. It's great

[@jamesliggins891]

@@highdefinition450 everyone's name is unique. their names are only "unique" to you because you aren't as familiar with South Asian or Eastern European names. In those places, "Chris" is as an exotic a name as you are painting theirs to be.

[@endeavourredemption]

@@jamesliggins891 that is super true and i wanted to say that to a lot of people in the comments talking about chris' name

[@leakypeach6250]

The skeleton is the false priest from ep 3

[@bluegoose7832]

I thought it was that guy who followed the false priest. The guy who caught Envy change

[@Micheal93k]

Blue Goose your right. The priest was bald, the skeleton had hair.

[@werfgh1]

wow true, I always thought it was the priest

[@Aleksey.Yero.SS.Araujo]

there was a priest who was black, he is that one!

[@MeatSim9]

Brother Cray or something.

[@legionkahn]

Ling and Mei can sense the energy of the souls in the philosphers stones of the homunculous. That is what Ling meant by "how many of you are in there" as in how many souls are inside of the body.

[@thatshuckinggreenie4048]

"Reah, Rooby, Rooby Roo"

[@MrSHADOWfox99]

Lol the blooper reels are great.

[@434444334]

The bloopers are the highlight XD

[@Commander_Shepard.]

Heh.

[@kirillsokolov8548]

10:05 "A talking dog?" Yeah, Raba-raba-roo!

[@Tmanowns]

I had never made the connection of the title applying to Mustang also being in the belly of the beast. Damn.

[@RainBow-gn7sl]

Suraj: "Where's pride?" Me: "everywhere" *whispers*

[@neonseas]

Since you brought up the rank thing when Mustang is leaving, Ed is a Major, all State alchemists are given the rank of major upon enlistment. It's way more obvious in Japanese because of suffixes and respect language (making him higher rank than all of the rest of Roy's staff including Hawkeye)

[@SomeRandomMario]

Looking back you realize Selim's letter to Bradley was basically him telling Bradley to get his shit together. B/c of his earlier comments in the episode.

[@ederoni]

oh poor selim

[@auric187]

yeah poor little innocent child

[@ameya193]

Feel bad for the kid. :/

[@totally5694]

yeah :/

[@donottouch9180]

14:22 Chris: Its very cold Marketa: It is Suraj:............I'm okay XDDD

[@M3rett0]

Suraj: It is Ling. Marketa: It is Pride. Chris: It is fucking Envy guys!

[@Dell-ol6hb]

How are they so confused? I feel like all this information is very well presented and easily understandable.

[@b0by1]

probably because we have already watched the show, I know I didn't have confusions like that while watching the show but that's coz I binged the fuck out of it

[@TriXJester]

It is but its like they dont listen

[@boyzaya15]

Colby S Yeah Suraj is starting to annoy me in every reaction he's in.

[@angramainyu9220]

I've seen this issue with almost every reactor who watched this show. They always get so damn confused about what's going on lol

[@lovec1609]

They confuse each other lol

[@dodiswatchbobobo]

“So there are multiple people inside them?” WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK PHILIOSOPHERS STONES ARE SURJ

[@frosttbyt6071]

Next episode is one of the best! Next week can't come soon enough!! *internally screaming*

[@bluegoose7832]

Yep. The music that plays as Envy tells how he started the war and as he changes into a monster makes everything so much more badass (they've already watched that episode so its not a spoiler if they see this comment)

[@doubleasworkshop1692]

Blue Goose I can't wait till episode 26. 2 more weeks

[@kuteken6312]

That ending tho..chiillls

[@NemeticSage]

Regarding Ling's question to Envy, he and his bodyguards are able to sense the qi of living things. He asks Envy that question because when they sense homonculi, they can sense the qi of every individual soul within them.

[@zyuunii3479]

that was the priest guy jacket not edward

[@yowo123]

Armstrong being a homunculus would be amazing and heartbreaking.

[@ellamartell728]

i love how hard Suraj has been trying to get into the opening but just can't do it

[@davidstulajter7717]

6:10 Right question is "WHO is Pride".

[@Redzorbon]

Dávid Štulajter I’ll do you one better, WHY is Pride?

[@rinkusan978]

A bit off-topic, but I really like how they have this Cozy Four / Fullmetal Four dynamic on Wednesdays. Kinda hope they do something with it like pit them against each other and put Suraj in an interesting position since he's in both groups.

[@Lupinemancer87]

The skeleton is from Cray, the right hand man of the Priest in episode 3.

[@mauriciomoreno997]

His name is Edward Elric fullmetal is nickname

[@dwnkaomwn3953]

As much as I hate Envy for killing Hughes in the most despicable way, there's some truth behind what he said. People(most of them) tends to use their emotions more than logic. There's nothing wrong with using emotions, but there needs to be a time and place to use them. I seen that first hand with some folks I met over the years. Didn't work out good for them in certain situations.

[@Merilirem]

It shouldn't really be a choice of 1 over the other. Logic isn't so shallow as to be unable to factor in emotions. Logic should be used and embodied while emotions should be a constant variable. To use them separately is foolish and usually a misunderstanding of what they are. They are not competing forces despite the fact that people may treat them as such.

[@pelonp3691]

Who names themselves “voice of reason”

[@Merilirem]

A madman.

[@dwnkaomwn3953]

If y'all are trying to provoke me in some way, y'all are wasting time.

[@Merilirem]

I just thought it was funny.

[@nb6806]

I wonder if they’ll end up binge watching all the way to 26

[@evertime123]

Ed and Ling are in the belly of the beast, but mustang is in the Belly of the Beast.

[@cupcake5114]

Oh, episode 37 is so far away ... Great reaction guys, as always!

[@smocloud]

The way I see the ultimatum envy gives marcoh, is either he can help them with their plans and as a result everyone will die, including him, or they will forcibly make him watch as they kill each person one by one in his home village, powerless to do anything about it.

[@LadyVenomWay]

Love you shirt chris!

[@Bezymyannyj_]

12:32 Lan Fan

[@darkflame728]

Pride and The Truth's voices don't sound that similar to me. Either way The Truth and Pride aren't in any way connected. Well, they're not any more connected than everyone else seeing as him/it/them is basically God in this world.

[@edjalmakaze]

interesting how both Ed and Roy were inside the belly of the beast

[@ElfoThi]

16:30 that one actually is the priest's skeleton that Gluttony ate in Liore, back in the first episodes.

[@josephlavode5945]

Actually it was Brother Cray, the priest's follower who saw Envy transform

[@ElfoThi]

Yeah, that's the one a was talking about. Hahahaha!

[@gisguth]

its already 20+ eps guys please and youre still getting confused

[@flyflip87]

will ed be coming back? "he won't, that's the end"

[@ibuprofriends]

its like yall didnt watch the episode yall were that confused lmao

[@rowdynproud3516]

I'm looking back at this I love the fact this us the first time seeing this just like me and ever episode is a new journey lol

poor Suraj. first time he comes up with an idea, doesn't happen in the show

The Firecracker Alchemist Roy Mustang, hero of ishval!

That Jacket was Father Cornello's

[@TimoKanal]

15:06 LOL

[@nottogood415]

the jacket is from one of the priests from the sun god leeto people.

[@natsusalamander2396]

Fun fact: On the first FMA Envy is Ed’s half brother but on here ENVY is neither male or female

[@Sonictunic]

15:06 Brilliant. Just Brilliant

[@Lightsephiroth]

"It can't bè boundless" lol

[@sancheramos6777]

goddamnit guys Envy is a man

[@polygon2745]

Leanatan Hicildne no, envy is androgynous. They were a boy in the 2003 show but that’s not canon to the actual Fmab storyline

[@sancheramos6777]

Yeah Envy can be genderless in the manga but English isn't a genderless language, so to get together with the dub (that refers envy as a "him", "man", "sir"...) it would be easier if they called him a guy.

[@dannybob42]

From Korra to FMAB, you're in for a meal today I just call them toys, or teddies or plushes Black Hole ain't Black Smoke though Not the same eye, if you look, Gluttony's eye has a slit pupil instead of a round one Yes, Episode 27 is a New OP/EN song episode, BUT! For spoiler purposes it's worth not watching it until Episode 29, next theme change will be Episode 39 Xiao-Mei is the Panda, May is the girl Surprise! Marcoh's alive, he's a sacrifice candidate under threat of the village being killed, Envy being at its most boastful and bastardly We hear him, enter Pride? Kinda maybe, we'll see for another day. Navi all confused though Bradley talking to Pride XD No, Wrath is talking to another Homunculus, but they're not ready to show their face just yet, even Sloth only had a minor cameo remember When they say that Gluttony's stomach is like an black hole they weren't kidding...But yeah his teeth can reach out a little too Ed has not killed in this series, nor does he intend to As purely a State Alchemist, Ed's title would be Major, like Armstrong - you'll see why he didn't get promoted later 'How Many people are inside you?' - What's the key ingredient for a Philosopher's Stone guys? Envy was sent to this location by Bradley, who would've informed Envy of Ling. Also Envy is not a She, Envy is an It often referred to as a Him ...And half of Envy, disguised as LAN FAN, Long Feng was the Dai Li guy from ATLA He said 'old Fox' guys... In an omake the Scar rumor was shown to be true, like Al, Scar has a soft spot for cats. Mustang makes his play, but it's far too Late It's been said every time, Who Struck First in Ishval? The Military. Who created Human Chimeras? The Military. Who could ignore evidence to incriminate Maria Ross? The Military, who could let Lust in to Eastern Command to attack Hughes? The Military, who was Marcoh making Philosopher's Stones for? The Military That wasn't anyone major, that was the priest in Liore Gluttony ate. Ed got sucked into Gluttony's Belly, and now he's in a bottomless pit of Gluttony's hunger. Sheska is not in on it, and sadly never seen again. Bradley's inner circle, the senior staff, are all in on the secret, they're all corrupt, but only few lower in the ranks are in the know. Why stop at one when you can watch two, finish off Part 2. You won't regret it~ You'd think that there has to be a boundary wouldn't you? All Homunculi's stones are their _Heart_ as Lust said 'It's not just a stone, it's my heart' Nah it sucks for you guys, we already know what happens ;) You're not ready There's only one way you're gonna find out who Pride is, and it's watching more episodes Greed was more or less 'Killed', technically speaking he returned to Father since his stone was drank by Father and Greed himself was an extension of Father's soul, an embodiment of his Greed. He's not Dead like Lust is dead but he's dead in a different way It did not sound like The Truth, the Truth's voice was less metallic and more raspy Next Episode will be fun, and you thought Gluttony looked creepy...

[@martmcphly650]

I think the Skeleton was Cornello, the priest.

[@john-1174]

Damn, Suraj is killing Marketa in this one.

[@RomanRodri23]

Isn't Envy neither a guy nor a girl?

[@HappyPotat]

Technically the homunculi have no sexual organs but I don't see anyone calling Lust a he and Greed a she.

[@HappyPotat]

They've referred to Lust as "her" and Sloth and Greed as "him"

[@butcanyoudothis3320]

TheHappy_P0tat0 Greed is a male. Seeing as he inhabits a male body. Lust is a woman. Seeing as how she inhabits a female body. As for Envy, I believe the whole point of no one being able to tell his/her gender, is that envy has no pre-disposition to either and can transform to look as any and all that he/she comes across. This is pure speculation on my part, but I think the consensus in the community is that Envy is a dude.

[@HappyPotat]

Alright then how about this. "The body Envy uses most of the time when talking to others is male" That better?
