The first FMA anime was made way, way before the manga was finished, so they just took the first part of the plot and then ran with it and made up the rest for the first anime. FMA Brotherhood was made after the manga finished, so follows the plot of the manga from start to finish. It's excellent. :D I hope you enjoy it!Cynthia @ Jellyfish Readshttp://jellyfishreads.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948806179342032942.post-54361275646739680402014-05-29T15:19:41.283+01:002014-05-29T15:19:41.283+01:00Really?

I also heard good things about <i>Unwritten</i> (which is similar to <i>Fables</i> but I can't remember if it's legends/mythology that the story looks at or whatnot) but I'll have to put that on hold until I clear up some of my graphic novel reading lists :)Liannehttp://www.caffeinatedlife.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948806179342032942.post-4696266833421990922014-05-28T00:27:25.943+01:002014-05-28T00:27:25.943+01:00Ohhh, that is so cool re the tweet from Laura Lam!...Ohhh, that is so cool re the tweet from Laura Lam!

The first FMA series, while I am incredibly fond of it since I watched it at the impressionable age of 11, pales in comparison to the actual plot that Hiromu Arakawa meant for the series. God, the first FMA series just made up so much shit as it went along and it was all kind of ridiculous in the end. Lots of fun, and I loved it so much, but seriously, THE ACTUAL PLOT WAS SO MUCH BETTER AND MAKES TONS MORE SENSE. ALSO SO MANY MORE AWESOME CHARACTERS NO SERIOUSLY YOU MISS OUT ON <i>ALLLLL</i> THE BEST CHARACTERS IF YOU ONLY WATCH THE FIRST SERIES. Ling! May Chan! HER PANDA!!!! OLIVIER ARMSTROOOOOOONG. I'm doing a Brotherhood rewatch at the moment and it is still so incredible. So much awesome in my eyeballs.<br /><br /><br /><br />Yay you like WTNV!

I just looked up Fables and it actually sounds like something I'll be interested in reading, so maybe I will check them out at some point! So many issues to go through though, eeeek!<br /><br /><br />Fullmetal Alchemist was the first anime/manga I was ever interested in, so a lot of my love for it is the nostalgia factor, but it is a very good series. Such a lovely twisty plot and wonderful characters. *happy sigh*Cynthia @ Jellyfish Readshttp://jellyfishreads.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948806179342032942.post-91355872445046386812014-05-27T15:20:05.765+01:002014-05-27T15:20:05.765+01:00I've been meaning to get around to the rest of...I've been meaning to get around to the rest of <i>Sandman</i> but haven't yet as my brother and I are slowly going through <i>Fables</i>. But one of these days I'd love to read the rest of that series. And yay for manga!
