FMA:B #56 Reaction Early Access

This show time and time again shows that you don't need your "main" characters in every episode, they've done multiple episodes without them even being mentioned.

Kyle Simpson

Wrath only has one soul. The rest were destroyed went the stone was first put in his blood steam. That's why he can't heal or anything, he's already down to his 'last life'.

Father can go anywhere in his body modeled after Hohenheim. Remember back in episode 40 when we got the Father and Hohenheim origin that Father said he wanted a body so he could walk on his own legs and leave his original flask. Once he got a body he walked from Xerxes to what would become Central Command like centuries ago. The body Father has and the little boy body Pride has are their containers. They are flasks. As long as they are in their flasks they can go anywhere. The shadowy forms with all the eyes are Father and Pride’s true bodies. When Hohenheim talks about limits he is talking about the shadow forms aka the true bodies not being able to survive outside of the little boy body or the Hohenheim body. That is why whenever Pride uses his shadows he keeps them attached to the boy body. If he ever left the body completely he would likely die because he needs a container/flask to survive. The limit Hohenheim talks about refers to how far Pride’s shadowy form can go while staying attached to his container/boy body. Pride’s shadow form aka the true body is massive and can stretch across the entire country through the tunnels, but there is a maximum length it before it has to leave the body. That is why Pride is limited a bit. He stays in Central and uses his shadows to travel underground to relay messages from Father to the others, protects the tunnel, communicate with Soth when he was still digging the tunnel. Pride can go anywhere he wants if he travels there with the boy body though. That is why we were able to see him go after Al with Gluttony. Father can travel anywhere to, but he chose to stay underground and connect himself to the pipes. The ultimate irony here is Father got his original wish and can now travel anywhere thanks to his fake body/flask he willingly removed himself from the world and put himself in his underground base where he barely moves, which isn’t that different from his days living in the smaller flask when he was just a speck.

Fun Fact: The 'limits' they talked about this episode with Pride actually don't exist. Hohenheim theorizes that since Pride didn't follow him outside the tunnel that Pride couldn't leave it. But Pride actually couldn't get into Hohenheim's space bacuse the light of the lantern didn't give him any shadows. Hohenheim states the 'limits' as a fact, and Pride doesn't give away his weakness by correcting him.

GAAH! Next sunday is always so far away, so much personal life stuff and work to get through.

Completely off topic but you guys should check out the “Bad Samaritan” movie trailer with David Tennant

Samantha Bailey

Can someone tell me how to see the full reactions?

Dakota Day

YES. I hope you guys watch the last few episodes in one sitting. Even if you only upload them once a week.

Andy

You guys would love fate/zero it'll prob be years before you get to it though

Samuel hawthorne

About 300 actually. But Dunbar’s number doesn’t account for being infused with a magic stone that gives you godlike power so I think we can give it a pass.

TB

They mentioned it in a earlier ep but they probably forgot. Cant wait until we get to his best performance imo when he fights someone later.

Its Dunbars number, and i believe its 150 people you can know well and have a stable relationship with.

I don't know if y'all know, but the voice actor for King Bradley passed away less than a year ago. RIP.

It's going to be very strange to have something else on Sundays when this is done. This has been a great reaction series.

IrishNexus

I just love ya'lls reactions to this show. Only 8 more episodes, it will be bitter sweet to watch this series come to a close, as well as your reactions for the show.

It was confirmed that this greed is in fact the same greed from the earlier episodes because he was shown to have his old memories but they didnt resurface until greed killed one of his own people

Oh man I've been looking forward to your reaction to this one since you first saw Bradley fight Greed back in episode 14.

cosmotron

and you guys should watch the game theory Matpat did about fullmetal Alchemist and souls. He mentions that number concept you were trying to think of eric

Jcw490

Troy Baker is Greed btw

Jcw490

Yeaaaaah, finally, witness the power of our King !

Senbu Johns

Every single promise day episode is incredible. This stretch of 14 episodes represents some of the very best TV I've ever seen.
