Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - Episode 25 Doorway of Darkness - Group Reaction

[@lalalalisa41]

Envy revealing that he was the one to kill that little girl shocked me so bad. It just never crossed my mind that he impersonated the soldier for that until this moment. Bradley saying the Homunculi has been controlling everything since its inception was also a huge shock as well. Who drew that? Arakawa of course! She's great, huh? xD Can't wait for E26!! I know you guys already watched it at this point, but the wait is gonna kill me lol

[@lalalalisa41]

Colby S Lol yeahh, I really love this anime :)

[@sharplimelight7847]

It's both the best and most annoying bit for me. I loved how the homunculi had the upper hand all the way through the story until the end. Envy's power came from no one knowing his power and he was probably the most important homunculus in carving the crests of blood. If he didn't gloat they could've used him until the end. If Envy was a tiny bit smarter, he'd be indisputably the most effective homunculus.

[@gabrielcarrasco8414]

It's very fitting that Envy has a grotesque appearance. They always say jealousy is an ugly thing.

[@mirandarichard122]

You guys talked over the best part when ling says "did you notice he's freakishly heavy for his size"

[@thefool1188]

They didn’t talk over it, they cut it out He said the part of ‘did u notice-“ and then they cut to the next scene

[@ldkinbote]

Envy doesn't have an Ultimate Form, that's just how Envy really looks. He has the ability to look like whatever, so he chooses to look more human to blend in better (and maybe he doesn't like the way he looks?). Ling said that his true form was huge 'cause when he fought him, he saw the weight of him when Envy planted himself and his foot dug deep into the ground. Also, way back around ep 14, Greed called Envy "ugly" and Envy got PISSED.

[@TheRealLeeisHere]

What I like most about Envy's form is that it looks like something out of Dante's Inferno.

[@robtheillusion5529]

funny because in fma 2003, the main antagonist was a woman named Dante, who just so happens to be the 'mother' of Envy.

[@tasogarerubica]

The demon that is linked to envy is Leviathan, so the draconic form he takes is quite accurate. In the first anime series's movie he was actually a serpent.

[@paradoxhamartia7843]

It's not that Envy has an ultimate form, it's just that he's literally "envious" about something (i don't want to spoil his character arc) so he prefers to use his morphing ability to gain that human form instead of showing what he really is. As Chris said, that's why he's way heavier than what he looks. Cause that's just a disguise, an act. After all, envy is a *green* eyed *monster* . :)

[@Raidanzoup]

Mei Chang and Xiao Mei where Xiao means little so Little Mei.

[@Micheal93k]

They were talking about getting another CANDIDATE for sacrifice to open the real Portal. People like Ed and Al are already Sacrifices because they already opened the portal. The people in the government know how to open the portal, but only alchemist can open it. They need to get one of them to open the portal to become sacrifices.

[@SchwickFAFO]

Micheal93k Yeah, they should rewatch parts that they don’t understand because it most likely means it’ll come back somehow.

[@223myself]

yay! cant wait for ep 26,it has one of the best eps in FMAB, revelation on few things n some foreshadow info that will happen in future eps

[@swapnilbatle]

Inspite of being named so, Gluttony hasn't eaten anything. His stomach is a literal void; gluttony is hungry all the time.

[@butcanyoudothis3320]

Swapnil Batle Gluttony is the sin for over indulgence or over consumption, or never being full to begin. He's never meant to be full considering he embodies the literal sin of man; Gluttony.

[@swapnilbatle]

I understand. Just my interpretation of why he is never full. Point taken, he is named appropriately.

[@fyrelord7826]

Envy didn't have a final form. He had a NATURAL form. His NATURAL form was the giant green monster (when full of souls) and the small green parasite (when souls are gone). His "human" form is a shapeshift.

[@Heyitsmehyuppp]

Really, I like all the homunculi. As characters for sure. As people, all except for three? Honestly, Bradley scares me too much too like him as anything other than a character 😂 pride, well. Hm. And Lust, we didn't get to see enough of her to really make any judgements on her as a person imo. She was cool though.

[@ori-arts]

Envy has no gender. And Envy did seem pretty human for a bit, right? I'm glad someone actually noticed for once.

[@blackfox4138]

Envy was always meant to be ambiguous as far as gender is concerned. The only reason they refer to him with masculine pronouns is because Japanese doesn’t really have gender neutral pronouns for people.

[@nateisler3]

Living forever sucks if you're the only one left alive.

"Envy is actually a guy" Envy interestingly enough has no actual gender, at least in the manga. But Everyone just refers to the homunculous as male in the show. And looks don't always ensure a gender. Also, you know, having a gender also kinda has reproductive organs for the most part. And I think aside from one (it'll be explained next episode i believe), homonculi really don't have any, aside from one other who shows up in the next few episodes.

[@doubleasworkshop1692]

Two *SPOILERS* Are you telling me my boy Ling's thing was cut off??

[@KlooKloo]

Everyone IN ENGLISH refers to Envy as male. Not in Japanese.

[@am3703]

Can't wait for THAT mustang fight *epic clicking intensifies*

[@TheAutistWhisperer]

I felt so bad for that officer, he was completely innocent and was court-martial all because of that scum bag Envy.

[@FrozenTundra88]

Yes, this and the previous episode were meant to show that the Military senior staff (the generals seated around that table) all know about the Homunculi and that King Bradley is a homunculus. The regular soldiers do not, of course. Great reaction, guys. Can't wait to see more. And yes, you got to see the broad extent of Envy's cruelty in this episode. And that true form.... O.o

[@cessare2467]

You should do a gif of Marketa during the discussion after the episode and add the sound of silence's "Hello darkness my old friend".

[@MoOmBaMaStAr]

Officially, Brotherhood and manga Envy is a "they". But original anime Envy was a "him".

[@KlooKloo]

OG anime isn't canon

[@butcanyoudothis3320]

the fact that it diverges from the Manga almost immediately and Arakawa wasn't involved in the story after that?

[@XxSircampsalotXx]

@@butcanyoudothis3320 FMAB & FMA are the same for the first 14 episodes or so... Then FMA diverges because they ran out of manga material. FMAB was made a while later and followed the manga all the way through.

Smartest comment here

[@glich6035]

the humonculas are human and the show does a pretty good job of showing that they are victims to a certain point themselves a glimpse of what they could have been of things were different a good example that gives no spoliers is gluttony and how he's a child he isnt evil he lacks that capacity he's inoccent to a fault and before you say anything you can be guilty of actions and innocent of mind there's a big diffrence between the two and at times a very fine line thats hard to view with any substance because of how horibble the actions of innocent characters can be it's like the old saying about how children are cruel and monsters in thier own right

[@oneish7454]

I know Envy is voiced by a woman, but it still kinda bugs me that you guys keep calling him "she" even though it's been repeatedly established he's male.

[@jaquanbrown413]

Gluttony,envy,greed,lust and pride has been around for more than 100 years pride is the oldest clocking around 5-600+. Bradley is only 60 years he's wrath he's the youngest

check that Cowboy Bebop intro. best ever

[@troggdorthesecond]

Immortality is a great deal if you’re a complete sociopath. So YES, there’s no wonder why government officials would find that Power attractive.

[@butcanyoudothis3320]

Jack Lobrano Or Bc people are afraid of dying? Fear of death for a creature that has no way of ever knowing it unless you experience it, would make a lot of people want to become immortal. Don't know where the " sociopath " came into.

[@icankickflipok]

Maybe he’s convinced them all they can be immortal gods chosen warriors come to build the next era of humanity.

[@KlooKloo]

28 is the finale of this arc. 27 is a (necessary and great) recap episode. You should watch 28 BEFORE 27 (I know I'm too late). Also, Envy Isn't a "she" or a "he", they are genderless, so you can use neutral pronouns for them, or just say "Envy".

[@MaxFalange]

stop with the "they need to watch ....", THEY ARE WATCHING FMAB NOW, CALM YOUR ANXIETY FOR GOD SAKE

[@Demaad]

Rei Vs.TheOldies You can’t blame them. It’s a brilliant anime and it’s annoying that they have to wait one week for each episode instead of 2-3 in one video.

I think we need to start tallying every time Chris says something with a lot of confidence, but is completely wrong. So we will start with him thinking that The Seatbelts made the FLCL OST.

[@Jeremy-jm3fe]

2:12 ...You mean "The Pillows", Chris. I guess you need brushing up on your FLCL knowledge.

[@SnowyWolborg]

I like that Marketa always has a blanket. It makes me identify with her. Also, you can eat leather, but you shouldn't because most of it has color dye. However Edward probably attained that out along with the bad stuff in the blood with alchemy.

[@KaregoAt]

Why do they keep referring to Envy as "she"? Envy is canonically genderless, and at least to me is more male than female coded. Did they literally just see long hair and a crop top and go yeah that's a girl...

[@mikeburr7453]

In the manga the never use "he" or "she" words to refer to envy. It is to be assumed envy has no gender given we saw no genitals on it's true form.

[@jbriggs06]

SHADOWfox99 It's generally accepted that Lust is the only female.

[@caiopatric]

Didn't envy say at the very beggining something along the lines of "i prefer to wear this body of a young boy"? envy may be genderless but the body he's shaped as is probably male. not that its a big deal or anything, but i definitely always saw envy as more of a guy. its weird to see someone calling it "her" for the first time.

[@Dell-ol6hb]

How are they so confused about so many things that are very obviously stated?

[@dannybob42]

Hitting the FMAB for some belly lore :P I've never heard it get called a front butt and I wish I could still say never Enjoy it while it lasts, you'll struggle to shuffle to the next one May travels with Scar, of course you're not gonna see her often given that Scar is none of our main characters' best friends Not Prick, Prince...honestly...the worst they say is Bastard in this show He is indeed using a bone May is 10-11 years old in FMAB THAT IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN TELLING YOU! Not the same, the eye is different. Gluttony is a defect, a shallow attempt at recreating the portal, and thus it is an endless void of nothing but death I'll repeat, Envy is not a She, Envy is an It, referred to in the dub as a 'he' 'sigh' Ishval, that moment when Envy went from Bastard to Unforgivable Bastard to WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS THAT!? I told you...you thought Gluttony looked horrifying, get a load of Envy Gluttony is naive, that doesn't make him an idiot They know about the plan and the sacrifices, that's why we have Kimblee and Marcoh under lock and Key, they're candidates You don't play chess with Bradley, especially when you're so open about your weak spots They knew that the tunnel from the labs led to the command center, not that Father was there, remember they don't know as much as you do about Father Female VA's playing male roles is nothing new, the voice of Hawkeye voiced Monkey D Luffy in the dub of One Piece, Ash Ketchum from Pokémon has always been voiced by women in original and dub They are not 'official humans', Lust and Greed were made almost identical to a human but that doesn't mean that they have to be, it's one of those cases where literary knowledge doesn't confirm actual knowledge. Gluttony and Envy are homunculi with humanoid form but they are not human, like the Stone is actually not a 'Perfect Material' a Homunculus is not simply an 'artificial human', simply an artificial lifeform powered by a Philosopher's stone, save for Bradley, who is his own unique version. Sam has it right, Lust was at final form since her ability was extending her fingers, their stone acts as a healing factor for them. When the stone runs out they're done. Bradley is the youngest 'Homunculus' at 60, Greed was over 200 years old and hadn't seen Envy, Gluttony, Lust or Sloth for at least 100 years, Bradley is the only one that ages in appearance. Hohenheim has looked the same since Pinako was young. Next is technically a finale, since the one after is a recap episode. DO NOT LEAVE IT FOR NEXT TIME! You think this is a good stop, watch the next one! They know how the open the portal, they were questioning Kimblee's compatibility for opening the portal as a sacrifice candidate, the 'portal' is always the Portal of Truth, Ling and Ed are in 'Gluttony's Stomach' Is he now? Bradley is not telling everyone, his inner circle at the top of the government are simply in on it Envy wasn't really trying to taunt Ed, Envy didn't know the extended impact the war had on Winry The fafala spar's scone? The anime doesn't go fully into it, but Wrath's eye can spot weak points and perceive time slower, he also has good anticipation skills Given how fast Bradley is, attacking him directly is a death sentence, or a disarming scenario if you've you got a kunai to swipe The story was that Raven still felt compassion for his men, but he still follows Bradley, which means he believes in what he's doing. They know he's a Homunculus Depends on the extent of immortality, there's different means of it. You can be ageless but then still die by murder or disease, you can be unkillable but still die of natural causes, you can be immortem when you're in a constant state of 'not-alive' and thus not need blood, food or water to function and then there's the immortality you're talking about Boo! In 3 weeks time you're gonna regret it See that's why 27 is a recap episode, we've told you about it, you were warned in advance.

[@thehousealwayswins8398]

Envy is genderless. They only call Envy a "he" in the English dub is because English doesn't have a gender-neutral pronoun for a person. It wouldn't work, either.

[@KlooKloo]

"they" is gender-neutral.

[@thehousealwayswins8398]

Not in formal English, though that might have changed due to spreading into common usage. Also, keep in mind that Funimation worked on this dub during 2009. "They" as a gender-neutral pronoun wasn't in wide usage back then.

[@KlooKloo]

Languages evolve everyday. "They" as a singular pronoun is now in common use, and in dictionaries. I know the dub is slightly older, but nowadays we can do things correctly. And Funimation hasn't gotten much better on this, see _Attack on Titan_ and _My Hero Academia_ for current examples.
