Fullmetal Alchemist is being re-done, with the intent of staying closer to the manga. A teaser trailer for the anime has been posted here: http://www.hagaren.jp/, it is set to begin airing soon in Japan.

Anyone excited for this? Thoughts? I'm personally stoked like a fireplace, but that's just me.

Kahlan4 · « **Reply #1 on:** February 11, 2009, 03:21:42 am »

ohhhh yeah, i'm excited too ^.^ we need to read the manga first though... just a matter of being able to afford buying the set, which is rather large >.< lol

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #2 on:** February 11, 2009, 06:17:57 am »

Well I've got volume one, so I'm trying to get it, but I agree.

I just love how Al looks in that trailer. He is so much darker, more brutal looking. This should be really interesting.

uraharafreak · « **Reply #3 on:** February 11, 2009, 07:47:04 am »

Oh man I'm so excited for this! Thanks for posting the new trailer. It's looking like adults are targeted for this version, rather than the more child oriented version of the original. I hope it will be as good as it looks.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #4 on:** February 11, 2009, 07:54:17 am »

I can't wait for this either. I personally loved the anime before but this one is going to be so much better

princessmoon · « **Reply #5 on:** February 11, 2009, 11:51:21 am »

Ohhhhh! Sweet! I hope they keep some humor intact though...even without I am majorly stoked bout this!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #6 on:** February 11, 2009, 11:51:52 am »

I really liked the humor in it before so I hope they keep it as well

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #7 on:** February 11, 2009, 01:19:58 pm »

Yeah, I had no problems whatsoever with the original anime. It is one of my favorites of all time. It was beautiful in its style, it had humorous aspects as well as the serious, and was just a thrillride from beginning to end.

This new one though, looks equally amazing, but in slightly different ways (based off the trailer). Can't wait!

yeah I haven't either but I heard it was much better than the anime and I really enjoyed that

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #13 on:** February 11, 2009, 09:19:11 pm »

If the manga was better than the anime, and the anime was super awesome, and the new anime is based more closely off of the manga.....it should be uber super awesome. Can't really imagine how cool it could be!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #14 on:** February 11, 2009, 09:23:24 pm »

I know that is what I heard so I am looking forward to it

jaybug · « **Reply #15 on:** February 11, 2009, 09:48:14 pm »

Let's hope it doesn't get lost like Hellsing Ultimate did.

Any fansubs of the new FMA out to see what there is to see?

According to Animenewsnetwork.com, the new FMA "premieres in Japan on April 5 at 5:00 p.m." Got some time to wait!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #17 on:** February 12, 2009, 10:54:12 am »

you will be able to find the episodes maybe a week after the first one airs somewhere on the internet.

Yup, that's how I saw Claymore.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #19 on:** February 12, 2009, 10:58:07 am »

someone will have the fan subs up in less than a week I'm sure.

uraharafreak · « **Reply #20 on:** February 12, 2009, 07:35:55 pm »

Yeah it's fairly easy to find those awesome fan sub the same day.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #21 on:** February 27, 2009, 08:49:26 pm »

New commercial posted: http://www.hagaren.jp/

Woo! Armstrong! and Gluttony! ^_^

Kahlan4 · « **Reply #22 on:** February 27, 2009, 09:40:39 pm »

^ yay! oh, i love sparkle-man >.O

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #23 on:** February 28, 2009, 08:40:29 am »

I think it's awesome how in that shot he is all dark and muscular...and yet he still has his sparkles, lol.

RandomCosplay · « **Reply #24 on:** February 28, 2009, 06:33:17 pm »

*crys* I don't understand what it saying

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #25 on:** February 28, 2009, 07:12:30 pm »

haha, yeah, neither do I. But the images speak for themselves. New FMA awesomeness, lol.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #26 on:** February 28, 2009, 09:40:43 pm »

I like the new commercial. I can't wait for this ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #27 on:** February 28, 2009, 10:26:12 pm »

Yeah. I only wonder if the English VA cast will be the same or if they will be looking to recast with new people.

Kahlan4 · « **Reply #28 on:** March 01, 2009, 03:13:36 am »

i hope they keep the same va cast, i thought all the voices fit really well in the last one.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #29 on:** March 01, 2009, 08:06:32 am »

Yeah, I agree. I liked all the voices. I thought everyone fit well into their parts.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #30 on:** March 01, 2009, 11:55:55 am »

yeah I liked the cast before so I hope they don't change it but I'm sure they will make SOME changes.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #31 on:** March 02, 2009, 09:10:56 am »

As long as they keep Vic Mignogna (Ed), the voice of Alphonse, and the voice of Alexander Armstrong, I'll be fine, heh.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #32 on:** March 02, 2009, 11:18:42 am »

I heard somewhere (might have been on here) that the voice actor for Al got too old and might not be able to do it >_>

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #33 on:** March 02, 2009, 01:16:47 pm »

Oooh, well that would make sense. Unfortunate, but makes sense.

But, you can't discover new talent unless the old talent moves on, right?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #34 on:** March 02, 2009, 03:40:34 pm »

That is true. Though it could just be a rumor, I guess we will have to wait till then

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #35 on:** March 02, 2009, 03:43:33 pm »

Yeah, we'll see. With the whole point of this remodeling being to make a truer FMA, I trust their judgment on everything, including VA casting.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #36 on:** March 02, 2009, 03:46:52 pm »

Yeah same. I know that the original anime was absolutely amazing so I am sure this one will be great too ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #37 on:** March 02, 2009, 03:58:46 pm »

Yeah for sure.

I'm just hoping to have read through the manga by the time this version comes out. Just like with Watchmen.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #38 on:** March 02, 2009, 04:02:29 pm »

I don't think I am even going to try x.x

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #39 on:** March 02, 2009, 04:07:18 pm »

I already have volume 1, so I at least have a start. I figure I am gonna read it eventually, so I may as ell try getting through it in time for the show.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #40 on:** March 02, 2009, 04:14:53 pm »

I don't have the time to read it. Too much class work and hanging out with friends XD

He'll be at Sakura-con so you can always ask him

nikkiolie · « **Reply #42 on:** March 02, 2009, 06:52:21 pm »

the voice actor or Al will be? I may have to go see him

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #43 on:** March 02, 2009, 07:57:42 pm »

I assume the voice actor will be. Would make sense, too, since the voice actor for Ed has been there a couple times, I think.

Makes me wish I was going to SakuraCon, but oh well.

Trumby · « **Reply #44 on:** March 02, 2009, 08:58:34 pm »

Haha, the animated character will be there <.<

Nah, the VA, Aaron Dismuke, will be there.

And yeah, Vic (Ed) was there the past two years.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #45 on:** March 03, 2009, 08:43:44 pm »

I think that's cool that Vic (and Aaron now, too) are taking their time to visit SakuraCon. I've heard some bad stories about Vic, but he seems like a really cool guy to me (and I have to believe some of those stories were said out of someone's particular bitterness and general bad attitude).

I still hope he comes down to Kumoricon some year.

Trumby · « **Reply #46 on:** March 04, 2009, 06:55:26 am »

Yeah I've heard some bad stuff too, but everything I have personally seen of him was nothing but good. Both years he was always out walking around the con, taking pics with people and such. In '07 he did a "service" (I didn't go to it so I don't know exactly what it was) on Sunday (since it was Easter) and after that he just hung out outside the panel room for a good hour talking to people, doing autographs, and taking pictures with people.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #47 on:** March 04, 2009, 07:12:38 am »

Yeah, that sounds like he's a really cool guy to me. Hopefully one of these years I'll cross paths with him at a con.

uraharafreak · « **Reply #48 on:** March 04, 2009, 07:51:22 am »

Yeah I believe Vic is a worship leader or something at his church. So he brought in a piano and played worship music in '07 because it was Easter. It was one of the best Easter services I had attended in awhile. He seemed like a pretty good guy to me. I haven't heard anything bad, but I don't purposely search for negative news on people. I'm excited that Aaron is going to the con. When Vic was there I pulled out the inside cover of the FMA movie and had him sign Ed. I'm go to try to get Aaron to sign the other part of it, then it'll be complete.

Oh man, already excited for con!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #49 on:** March 04, 2009, 08:10:30 am »

That sounds like it would be pretty cool. I would go to church for that XD
