I think you could come up with some good ideas why father seems off or acts robotic like you said if you think about everything you've learned so far in the series. Great reaction, thank you.

2021-01-13 06:52:24 +0000 UTCHe is not though. No spoilers but he did extract some key parts of himself to become more powerful.

2021-01-12 07:34:20 +0000 UTCThe name sounded familiar so I looked him up on imdb and yeah I know him from a whole bunch of stuff, like The Last of Us, FFXIII, Catherine, Monster, and a few other things. He has quite the resume.

2021-01-12 03:04:34 +0000 UTCYup, since Lust died he's seemed so sad and hopeless... and his childlike optimism about seeing Father too

2021-01-12 02:05:07 +0000 UTCAnother way to look at the theme is that yes, the show is about human vice, but even though you have all these sins that are supposedly the 7 deadly ones, the real sin in the pursuit of power, and when you put all else aside to pursue power you become something that is no longer human. This is very much represented by the how both Ling and Bradley were previously human, but "became" homunculuses.

2021-01-11 11:58:20 +0000 UTCI can’t get over Howe child like als voice is especially because he’s only one or two years younger then ed

2021-01-11 09:28:30 +0000 UTCThe father is all there. However, he is so powerful and sees everyone as mere or little more than an insect that he just doesn't care. So his behaviour and energy are radically different from everyone else. Makes him seem like he is not at all there. Also, he is a deeply curious person.
Yusuf
2021-01-11 07:40:00 +0000 UTCI don't think he believes what he is doing is bad or evil. He probably just sees it as a game or something.
Yusuf
2021-01-11 07:38:02 +0000 UTC@DogBlessThis is a massive hint! eheheh
Yusuf
2021-01-11 07:35:45 +0000 UTCFun fact: the new Greed is voiced by Troy Baker, who you may or may not know? He’s been in some anime dubs as well as many video game roles. Overall a cool dude and great actor I also love how curious Father is in this episode. He’s framed as this big bad guy, and while he definitely is that,he’s also genuinely curious about what’s going on with say Scar and his alchemy. He’s curious about the Elric brothers, even though he called humans insects moments before or later.

2021-01-11 06:50:38 +0000 UTCSuch a great episode. I love Greed's character, both old and new.

2021-01-11 06:25:01 +0000 UTCI think its very easy to feel bad for Gluttony because he acts like a child albeit a merderous one but he has a child like mind nonetheless.
Rachel Keys
2021-01-11 05:01:58 +0000 UTCYes, their eastern (Xing) alkahestry is different in one key way from Amestrian alchemy. Remember the legend told several episodes ago about the "wise men" who brought/taught these practices to their respective nations, and how their appearances might remind you of someone...
DogBless
2021-01-11 04:22:01 +0000 UTCAs opposed to Bradley who fought with every soul in his stone and only one came out on top, Ling accepted Greed. That is why he has regeneration and Bradley does not. Bradley has to seem human as much as possible for the public.

2021-01-11 03:06:49 +0000 UTCoh yes greedling my fave character lets go

2021-01-11 02:58:56 +0000 UTCRight, makes sense! Forgot about the Greed juice
Alex G
2021-01-11 02:44:18 +0000 UTCFather can't create a new Lust since her philosopher's stone was completely depleted and destroyed by Roy. But he was able to make a new Greed because he reabsorbed the former Greed's stone by drinking it :D Don't want to spoil anything but once again you are so right about many things.
Ruma Risto
2021-01-11 02:37:21 +0000 UTCI was thinking about that later. I said he needs to make a new Lust, but Greed makes sense since the philosopher's stone wasn't destroyed.
Alex G
2021-01-11 02:34:58 +0000 UTCI did miss that at first. Their Alchehistory (sp?) maybe?
Alex G
2021-01-11 02:34:30 +0000 UTCOne thing the anime doesn’t really explain well is how father creates greed again. Remember when they captured and killed greed he got filtered into a cup that father drank, and now we see again the red liquid come out of him. He basically absorbed greeds essence. Lust on the other hand was killed by Roy and her stone disappeared completely, meaning she wouldn’t be able to be simply recreated like greed was this episode
Kollie123
2021-01-11 02:28:21 +0000 UTCbtw you might have missed it, but it wasn't only Scar that could do alchemy, May was able to as well while Ed and Al couldn't
Francesca White
2021-01-11 02:26:14 +0000 UTCAh yes Greedling I almost forgot this is the episode he makes his debut.
