Everyone keeps saying that FMA is the best anime ever (basically.)
But I can hardly get past episode 14 in the original anime. I stopped watching it last winter. Does it ever get good? -_-

If you're not interested by 14 I can't say it will change for you.
Just finished season 1 and the ending was good.

Best anime ever? No, best anime in what I would call a 'non silly' drama?, maybe I am willing to call it grade A, but I've seen a lot of great anime.

There was a bit where the plot seemed to be a moving target. But this show is clearly something I should have watched a long time ago.

If I end up agreeing with the viewpoint that Brotherhood is better, I expect to be very happy shortly (just grabbed 1-24 to watch).
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

Goddamn it. Just when I thought this show was going to be worth something, they throw us some cheap CG.
I was actually looking forward to seeing Envy's true form too.

Youll like brotherhood better. Its got no filler, its all plot. Every week is a good episode. And its already VERY different from the original (i don't read the manga ;p)

The big question is if Brotherhood will be 26 episodes and then we'd have to wait for more seasons (like Hajime No Ippo New Challenger) or it'll be a complete one that will sum up to about 50+ episodes.I'm asking this because the manga shouldn't have more than 8-10 chapters left until the end,we've just arrived at the climax of the final battle...

Those are only "confirmed"episodes. The series is still of undetermined length.
