[@nickjrgaikwad9991]

This scene is purely amazing. Like how Nina didn't understand what her father did wrong and how she just wanted her father to be happy. How she truly cared for her father. Because when Scar killed her father she cried even in her Chimera form. Her humanity was still intact not knowing how her father destroyed her life.

[@lolololol7573]

For me it's how it set the tone of the series and asked a very important question at the start of the story: "What kind of alchemist is Edward?" It tells us his morals and values and he will do anything to not be like this kind of scientist. Which he does follow through with throughout until the very end. And the little details like you said, how a child will cry for their parent even though the parent did them wrong and hurt them. Such great writing.

[@julianmarco4185]

Yeah... Edward could have used his Alchemy to put Nina's soul in a doll or something until he got a philosopher stone and fixed her... or changed that chimera girl into a furry beast human like other chimeras... But no... they gave up and basically told Scar: "here, put her down. We literally aren't going to try anything to help this girl. We give up... but we are still going to try to fix our limbs and get Alphonse's whole body back from the void.... so... we ain't got time for Nina and her dog!"

[@lolololol7573]

@@julianmarco4185 That's.. I think you might be misunderstanding the series and the timeline a little bit.

[@julianmarco4185]

@@lolololol7573 Tell that to Lust regenerating a whole body from nothing. Or Pride eating whole humans or Father making immortal bodied. Or Ed somehow getting into Pride's stone and not dying. Or a lizzard Envy having the conciousness of a human despite being inches tall or less. Or Alphonse having his whole body gone but haunting a suit of armor. This show gets really looney Tunes by the end and you are trying to complain that I refuse to believe that something done with Alchemy can't be undone with Alchemy?! That is exactly what the show is about: how using Achemy carelessly destroyed lives, yet using alchemy with godlike skill can fix anything. Alphonse didn't get his body back by cloning his body with science and putting his soul back in with some religious ritual. It was alchemy that did it.

[@ishmaaelbloodreaper6395]

@@julianmarco4185 You definitely misunderstood the premise of Fullmetal Alchemist. They definitely show just how amazing alchemy can be and what it can achieve, but in doing so they also demonstrate the folly of relying wholly on this science. There are a wealth of examples in the story, but I think the best foundational example is the brothers' original attempt at human transmutation: the resurrection of their mother. There, they researched diligently, measured accurately, and performed the alchemy perfectly. What did they get for their result? A soulless thing, reflected in grotesque body horror. Obviously, their understanding was incomplete, and you can make the argument that they needed more research so they can re-attempt the transumtation. But later in the story, the brothers' are caught flat-footed when a pregnant woman goes into labour. Their alchemy wasn't going to help in that situation, but luckily their childhood friend Winry was there to help the labour process along; not without alchemy, but through midwifery. It is in that episode that the brothers realise how awesome nature creating humans without alchemy are. The audience is also invited to compare birth with human transmutation. Alchemy requires some knowledge and ingredients only, but it leads to disaster. Childbirth is difficult, but a human with a soul is born. With the above examples alone, you can easily reach the conclusion that alchemy, while useful, can be an addictive shortcut to horrifying catastrophes. There are some things that alchemy should not be allowed to touch (e.g. human transmutation, which incidentally is outlawed in the story) and for nature to run its course. Don't believe me yet? You mentioned Lust, Gluttony (I'm assuming, as Pride doesn't make a habit of eating humans) and Envy, all homunculii that are the embodiment of the pinnacle of alchemy. Lust killed Mustang and Havoc easily, and sought to kill Riza. However, just when it seemed hopeless, it turned out that Mustand survived, cauterised his and Havoc's wounds, and burned Lust into ashes. You could that was because flame alchemy trumps Lust's alchemy-borne powers, but that doesn't explain how and why he managed to survive long enough to win. The correct takeaway is that Mustang was willing to go that far for his loved ones. Incidentally, the way Lust dies is an irony: she is lust, but it is love that defeats her. And this irony is extended to the other homunculii. Gluttony ate other humans, but died being eaten by another. Envy was an androgynous shapeshifter who can become anyone he wanted, which he used to hurt and kill humans, but at the end of his life he was an ugly little thing who didn't want to admit to being envious of humans for being determined to be better. The point is that alchemy has limits, and cannot fix everything. This irony goes even further with human alchemists. Alphonse was "haunting" a suit of armor, but the point was that he is unable to feel warmth of anything (including a mother's warmth, which was his punishment from Truth/God); but he found many friends and companions along his journey that warmed him irregardless. Izumi attempted human transmutation on her stillborn son (to the same horrifying result) and for her troubles lost her reproductive organs to Truth/God; but she became a surrogate mother to her apprentices the Elric brothers. Mustang both figuratively (and later literally) lost his sight; but in both instances Riza helped him overcome his blindness. Scar was a vengeful murderer who hated and was trapped by the use of alchemy; but he embraced his deceased's brother's alchemy research to help the country that destroyed his and was redeemed in the process. Edward lost his arm and leg to human transmutation; but both literally and figuratively he found someone he could lean on in the form of Winry, his automechanic and later wife. Therefore, to add to the earlier point, alchemy has limits and cannot fix everything, BUT BEING HUMAN CAN MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE. What does all of this have to do with Nina's condition? When you find yourself in a hole, you don't say "I know! I'll DIG my way out". Same thing applies to Nina's condition; you have no idea how much more terrible Nina's situation could be when human transmutation is performed again. A horrible thing happened to her, yes, but that does not mean she should be defined by it, nor should she be denied companionship as a result. Or, in other words, you pull yourself out of the hole, and if the hole is too deep to pull yourself out of, have others help you out of the hole.

[@insomniacnerd5592]

What’s the worst thing about this to me is that Nina’s innocence shines through. Despite having something this horrific done to her, she still shows some sort of worry for the man that did such an awful thing to her. She doesn’t realize the gravity of the situation and it’s heartbreaking. I really do think the most evil thing one could ever do is commit appalling acts on a child. They are too good for this world and need to be nurtured and protected. Violating that shows me that you don’t have a soul.

[@zonesquestiloveunderworld]

Too right. Children are the most precious things we have. There are few things more despicable than betraying the trust and innocence of a child, and manipulating and [ab]using that child as a means to an end...

[@rahn45]

It's slightly worse than you might realize, because many dogs have unconditional love; so it's both of their love for their father in one body that refuses to yield. So while everyone might feel that the beating is deserved, neither Nina nor Alexander would never accept it.

[@vincenthammons-kd9du]

This scene really had me thinking, like deeply. I think because you can see on Ed’s face that part of him knows that tucker is partly right, in the fact that a lot of scientists experiment on lives, animal and human. Although their situations are different because for the Elric brothers it was more of an agreed self-sacrifice than the selfish use of other people.

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

Yeah he hates that part of him agrees. He hates that 1 sacrifice could benefit countless others and that it had to be Nina because losing nameless people is easier to overlook.

[@robertemery2711]

Not really. They thought equivilant exchange was the ingredients they put in the transmutation circle, not Al's body and Ed's limbs. Where it differs is they were trying desperstely to bring someone back from the dead. Shou snuffed out his daughter's life in hopes of recognition/payout

When I was younger I really didn't care or feel anything when I watched this, but now I have kids, it hits differently.

[@NobelTheKnave]

Everybody who watched this scene for the first time: *I’m never going to emotionally recover from this*

[@teohontech7141]

Not sure if there are scenes from other animes that is as chilling as this. Downright haunting.

[@renjuntodayjenotomorrow5853]

I watch this when i was 13 and i dont have any idea how deeply sad and traumatic this scene is 😭 now im 27, it makes me cry 😭

“What do you mean 'lower myself'? That's the only thing I've ever been. Just a simple human who couldn't save a little girl. Not even with alchemy.”

[@drinkerofpaint]

Honestly I wouldn't even say this was the saddest scene

[@Ligma_015]

Now I’m crying at work. Thanks a lot

[@gil828]

Still get chills watching this scene

[@TheZghost117]

3 years later after seeing this in the original, brotherhood and the live action movie this moment still hurts

[@shahriarchowdhury7871]

Damn you for kicking up such a devastating PTSD...

[@MomentaryLapse]

I got goosebumps as soon as i read “big brother edward”

[@veganrican606]

I remember the first time I saw this, it broke my heart in a bad way.

It was more terrifying in Full Metal Alchemist (2003) how Nina dies was just .....

[@JoeFanik]

What makes this worse in hindsight is that there’s already a successful way to make superior Chimeras. Tucker has rightfully fallen into the depths of hell

[@gweregnicod2742]

Romi Park (Ed) was amazing in this moment

[@marcsalazar8879]

Damn even without context can still make you cry huh

[@Cloud-zb8lw]

It’s better to die in peace than to live in pain for the rest of your days. Scar simply freed them from their pain.

[@mr.mcnuggies]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@zxdith]

Never once seen this, or have any background knowledge of what the rest of the show is, but I almost teared up at this scene alone

[@Majok12345]

0:30 my eyes teared up a bit ngl

So as it said ''Big Brother '' my mind was Edward.0:31

[@michellejohnson8030]

[@LanzaNation]

This is so freaking heartbreaking every time.

[@Blackmambama]

All those years ago me not really understanding what exactly happened to the family. This really hits like it’s a real thing… it’s fucked up because it’s people like him in the world for real.

[@julisimonyan4825]

What scares me the most is science is moving toward this quicker than ever.

[@mr.mcnuggies]

The part with Alphonse at 2:35 is the fucking saddest to me

[@buddyroach]

imagine changing your daughter into a dog then becoming poor that you have to move and the only apartment you can afford doesnt allow pets.
