Fullmetal Alchemist Fullmetal Editions Review with Inside Look of Vol. 1

[@kaiserwave5977]

RIP Miura Berserk is one of my favorite mangas I just pray that Togashi is doing okay

[@armedjaquar]

Rip man. Lets have hope for Toshiro Togashi.

[@williamrivera9230]

Berserk is the best manga for people with a rape fetish

[@hellodigitalworld8224]

@@armedjaquar hello 😂

[@cursedstone7939]

It's unbelievable that it has been 3 years since Miura's passing

[@philemonevans1814]

It really warms my heart to see how many people Miura managed to capture with his story. I’m not surprised someone such as yourself loves his manga but the intro caught me off guard as this is the first video of yours I’m watching. Thanks for honouring the man, he was great

[@AnimeCollective]

It has really been amazing to see all of the love that others have for Kentaro Miura and I too have been touched to see how many people were affected by his work. He really impacted my life and Berserk really connected with me, so much so that it is my favorite manga and nothing seems to ever compare. But he made such an impact on the manga industry as well so I'm grateful to him for doing that also! An amazing man with an amazing legacy! Thank you too for honoring him!!

[@chrisv9419]

Miura’s hits me harder than anyone else’s death. I was fortunate enough to read all of his stuff when it gets released since I live nearby Dark Horse HQ. Even after days later I’m still crying rivers because it feels like loosing a best friend. Thank you for everything you’ve done Miura, May your soul ride on with Skull 💀 Knight in the afterlife...

[@benjaminlyons5261]

Definitely getting the fullmetal editions! So pretty. Plus I don’t own any edition and don’t own any manga (been making my way through euro comics) but loved the story from where I left off.

[@AnimeCollective]

Awesome that we get to experience Fullmetal all over again with the Fullmetal Editions! They really do have an amazing design as well, so agree with you there. I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying the story so far!

[@teriyaki_chicken]

I love your channel, you got me back into reading manga!

[@EliteCollector]

Just talked about these in my recent manga haul. One of my favorites in my collection. Great video showcasing them! 👍

[@AnimeCollective]

Thank you!! Happy they released these special editions of FMA. They look so good!

[@steveh88]

I appreciate the info. After watching this I've decided to start collecting this series. As soon as Target has their next buy 2 get 1 I plan to pick up at least the first 12 volmes

[@501_No_Name_Clan_RL]

This is currently my favorite series. And the first manga I’ve bought!

[@BeardFaceSuper]

FMA is great. Have you tried Hunter x Hunter or Yu Yu Hakusho?

[@CorySyco]

I came in for your Death Note and Berserk editions comparison. Then decided to sub because I like the way you express your opinions on things. Thanks for the content and saving me some money in terms of collecting editions I would not appreciate as much.

[@lemisho8186]

I have the boxset, but since fma is my all-time fav franchise I might pick up the Fullmetal editions as well+ I really want the blu-rays for 2003 and Brotherhood as well but they're expensive...

[@AnimeCollective]

Definitely benefits to owning both the box set and the Fullmetal Editions, especially if it's your all-time favorite! I just looked up the blu-ray sets and those look awesome!! I definitely see why you want those. Hope you are able to pick them all up some day!

[@dontask9000]

I’ve been dying to get these editions the covers are so pretty and they look amazing!! Plus I prefer hardcover books as a manga collector

[@JosephMichaelVideoGameJournal]

Automatic upvote for the start of the video; RIP Miura

[@garlicbreadstick21]

I love these hardcover versions so much

[@valtsu7785]

Thank you for the video. 😊 FMAB was my first ever anime and now that I have thought about starting a little manga collection I might start from these!

[@AnimeCollective]

Of course and thank you so much! 😄 That would be awesome! These are really high quality so they would be a great to start to a manga collection, especially since FMAB was one of the first anime you ever watched.

[@Last_Sherlock]

i bought them last week based on this review, perfectly satisfied

[@AnimeCollective]

Glad you found this helpful! Really enjoy reading the Fullmetal Editions and awesome to hear that you are enjoying them as well!

[@glueyossi]

How many books are in the finished series?

[@ViewtifulJae]

If only they went the full color route!!! I’d faint rn. Great video thank you

[@Unknown1234-i5v]

I have fullmetal edition volume 7🙃

[@NMan40]

I was definitely interested in these Fullmetal editions back in 2020 and was seriously considering upgrading my single vols. However, the binding issues like you mentioned were definitely a turn off. I also heard problems with the foil embossing on the spines flaking off even if you were very careful with them. I recall reading and seeing some reviews where this was mentioned. Someone I know has these and said the foil embossing was fine initially, but after a few years of handling the books and moving them around on her shelves, she has noticed the flaking recently and she is very careful with her books. So, on the surface these books look nice, but they are not without their problems. I’m glad I stuck with my single vols.

[@Redrumcomics]

These books are so beautiful I have 1-12 myself but haven't started reading them yet. Already owning them myself I still got excited to see you uploaded a video reviewing them, love the content thanks so much 🤘🏻

[@AnimeCollective]

Agreed! So happy they released these special editions. Thank you so much and glad you are enjoying the content! Means a lot to hear that and hope you have an amazing weekend! 😁

[@turtleanton6539]

How many in total

[@prayed249]

Yeah I was thinking about picking these up but was a bit confused on the new features the full metal editions bring thanks

[@AnimeCollective]

Ah yeah! Not a ton of new extra material but the design, updated translation, and lettering are nice. Happy to hear that you found the video helpful!

[@Allinguts]

RIP Miura rest in power!

[@ericdowden3435]

Started watching the fullmetal alchemist brotherhood anime sometime last year I started collecting manga last year with fullmetal alchemist volumes 1 and 2 in the fullmetal edition

[@AnimeCollective]

I'm the same way with series! Love watching the anime and reading the manga. That's awesome that you picked up the Fullmetal Editions; They are beautifully made!

[@tienatic6915]

I have never read Berserk but I know that Miura's death impacted the manga and anime fans. R.I.P

[@mattcarter6158]

I plan on getting, I think the last two volumes of this edition. Here in Australia, we had this amazing translated version by a company called Chuang Yi. They had sleeves and looked a lot like the Japanese type of manga and I loved them dearly but I missed out on getting volumes 23 onward since they aren't around anymore. :(

[@pierre-olivierl5897]

I just ordered them all (volume 1-17). I already have all the Berserk Deluxe, Colossal Attack on Titan, Blade of Immortal Deluxe, 35th anniversary Akira and Blame! Master edition + my childhood collection of Dragon Ball. The only other manga that i have interest for is One Piece but im not sure if i should wait for restock of the box set.

[@why8308]

The 1st One Piece box set was in stock yesterday. You can check Rightstuff to see if it still is. I also found it in stock at Books-a-Million

[@Leonardo_Guimaraes]

Anyone could explain what she says at 2:50 ? "eye is very small" what she said? and what she meant with it?

[@ssplif5415]

I think she means the split in the middle off the book when its open

[@madysengarcia5153]

I've seen a little bit of this anime back then and I stopped watching it so I'm gonna probably watch this anime again when I feel like watching it and if I like the anime maybe later on I would probably get these hardcover manga edition of this manga. Honestly in my opinion I like hardcover manga more because paperback Mangas break more easily if you don't take good care of it by that I mean that the corners get off easily and I just don't like that and also I wish that the sailor moon manga was hardcover in English but we only have paperback versions while German and I believe French have hardcover editions for eternal edition and I know it's not nice to complain but that's my opinion.

[@spikeboot0]

Thank you for the video

[@AnimeCollective]

Of course and thank you!!

[@kennethmatthew9638]

Awww I love Berserk. I want Griphon

[@TypOnomIcon]

As much as I love the premise, the anime just never gripped me enough to get through. I might check out vol 1 of these editions to see if I prefer reading like with One Piece

[@AnimeCollective]

I've been the same way as well with a lot of series! I tend to enjoy manga more, but still enjoy anime also! Fullmetal is one that I thought the anime was just good and I know that's an unpopular opinion haha I personally enjoyed the manga more than the anime. The only thing I found myself struggling with a bit was the art, but the story is incredible. Definitely think it's worth the shot though especially if you enjoyed reading series like One Piece more so than watching it!

[@rustecohle591]

Which fma fullmetal edition has “the last days of xerxes”?

[@turtleanton6539]

Gotta read FMA sometime

[@FullMetalAtheist]

Great overview and review. I think it's a bit odd that you thought skipping looking at the Berserk statue due to his death, I personally think it would be more respectful to show off his character and review the statue to show everyone how great his creations were during this time. Not a big deal, just a thought I had.

[@AnimeCollective]

I really appreciate your kind words! I actually ended up doing the review of the statue on the channel but just waited for a month or so to post it out of respect for his family. I definitely wasn't going to skip posting the video and it is up on the channel now, because Berserk is my favorite and the Guts statue is my favorite statue in the collection! In my opinion, it just seemed like a lot of content creators were posting videos to capitalize (and this isn't all, but a few) and I really just wanted to wait out of respect, but I get what you are saying!

[@FullMetalAtheist]

@@AnimeCollective Well that makes complete sense! I wasn't aware other creators were trying to capitalize on it and take advantage, I didn't even think of it that way initially. Great point. I really respect that choice by you. I just lacked a bit of context. Your content is some of the best I've stumbled upon, keep up the great work!

[@AnimeCollective]

Man, thank you so much! I really appreciate everything you said and hope you are having an awesome weekend!

[@jm-ol5db]

Ohyea there were a ton of creators releasing r.i.p kentaro videos all over youtube when word got out. Berserk clothing ads started appearin on my ig feed. Imagine some famous person dies and next day im making r.i.p _____ shirts of that person so i can sell for profit on ebay. Thats who i saw it atleast lol easy views for them

[@jackdelaney6912]

Is the fullmetal edition the same as the original one just put into bigger books

[@turtleanton6539]

Yeees😊

[@MoofyDesu]

I'm really interested in getting this, but there is no box set available in my country, only the individual books. I am still wanting to buy them all, but can I just confirm with you that all 18 editions in English are not out yet? I've only seen volumes (for the Fullmetal Edition) 1 to 13 readily available, with 14 and 15 ready for pre-orders. Is this the case?

[@AnimeCollective]

Hey! That is correct! 1-13 have already been released and 14 (releasing in a few days on August 10th, but looks like it's already in stock on Right Stuf) and 15 (expected to release in November) are up for preorder now. Hope that's of help and that you are able to pick them all up some day!

[@nawafaloufi8729]

Can you tell me what are the volumes covering chapters 50-61 please ?

[@AnimeCollective]

Hey! Chapters 50-61 are covered in Fullmetal Editions 9, 10, and 11.

[@hiteshanand6498]

Should I go for Hardcover edition or Paperback,please reply

[@AnimeCollective]

Hey! I personally would go with the hardcovers. They're high quality releases!

[@daddy_1453]

The latter volumes are especially fantastic as the art is much better later on with more dynamic acting scenes with more characters.
