I’ve a more recent fan to FMA and am having a terrible time waiting between Wednesday and next Monday and I get to watch it three times a week (unlike you elders Adult Swim Fans who survived on one night a week).

I just got done looking through the adult swim page with the interviews and such and it hasn’t done a thing to appease me … only make it worse. *Chuckles* I have to sit on my hands to stay away from episode guides and spoilers. Yeah, I’m the kind of girl that flips to the end of a book just to make sure the hero survives before going back to read the rest of it. Trying really hard to be good this time. A bit nervous when I saw they only had episodes up to 38 listed on the guide on Adult Swim, there is more then that … they need to dub faster.

*sighs and wanders back to work on her fan story a bit more* ~ K

Don't worry, dear, you'll get used to it. As they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder XD

Just yell at the TV. It helps.

You better find something to do to keep you away from spoilers Koori. Once the new episodes come back on, they will be on Saturdays only. Hang in there, do not succome to the spoilers.

the real question is how did you people survive having to wait even a Day to watch the next episode

where as I didn't have to wait more then a few seconds to pop in the next dvd in i got all the episodes

It was EXTREMELY hard to be able to go on for a whole week. I'm just so glad that I have the episodes on DVD. I watched like two episodes a day now (sometimes I go over board and watch 8) so I don't go insane cause it's almost impossible for me to stay up to 1:00 in the morning. *sleepyness*

*Wishes all spoilers had really long passwords no one would share with her* And one day a week again? *sighs*



- *Is envious of Envy* I wish ... the DVDs are on my wish list but with the new baby, there is no extra money to spend ... and don't feel right downloading episodes off the internet so will wait my turn ... Christmas isn't that far away is it?

Only half a year. ^^ and you're envious of Envy? That is so fun...

Lucky for me I didn't have to wait long since I downloaded the whole series. It was waiting 8+ hours for work to end that was hard.

Oh, that and waiting until my ex was done with the computer so I could watch them. I'm glad I don't have to wait for adult swim to pony up the episodes I don't think I would of made it.

lol@Envious of Envy now you have two Envy's to be envy of

and i got the entire 51 episodes imported from hong kong

How is the sub quality? I was thinking about picking that set up.

it was great for the first two Disc then it got a bit lower but then it got better :|

How did I survive? I didn't. I was only able to stay alive by recording every episode and watching it at least twice a day.



Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who does it. ^^;;

you know right now untill november i have to deal with the episodes on cartoon network cause i let a good friend borrow my FMA dvd's while he's on his 6 month out to sea in the navy so he can watch it when he's not on duty or something

Yeah! I'm not the only one that records them! I havn't been at home but as soon as I do I'm going to record all the episodes in order... and then buy the dvds... cause I already have the second one I'm just waiting for a load of money to fall on my head so I can get the first and third... been waiting for that load of money for a loooong time now....

I survived by reading spoilers! XD I don't care, since it really doesn't ruin the story for me. It makes me want to keep watching.

::high fives Jen:: Whoot for being spoiler whores!!

don't know how anyone would want to read spoilers

Well no matter how many I read there are still a few HUGE blank spots that I'm dying to get filled... so I can't wait for September to roll around whoot!

since you like spoilers so much i can go and type out everything that happens in every episode, not leaving one detail to the point of saying a tree branch blew in the wind

I probably wouldn't care because it drives me mad not knowing every little detal lol but just to show I have some self control ::plugs ears and hums loudly:: LALALALALALA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU! LALALALALA!!

lol good Cause i would never have the patients enough to type that all out

Martel, I can just see that. XD. Yeah, I can remember a lot of stuff like that. I love just quoting from memory; I dunno, it's just not hard for me. That's why when people ask about episodes or something, although I'm not that good, I can tell you some parts word for word. For some reason, episode 25, more than others...

LMAO! Nice Envy, very nice. ::cries:: I dun wanna think about Episode 25... ::looks at the picture of the alter-hughes from the movie and smiles:: yeah

TIVO.

=^___^=

Well ... one more night of FMA then the dreaded wait starts again ... up to episode 16 I love reading the old Episode Discussions, seeing what others thought. Though, I'm kinda bummed ... clicked on episode 18 by mistake and realized I've already watched it (from its first run *sigh*) Was sure I had more shows to watch ... maybe I missed some, because I sure don't seem to know as much as some of you other Adult Swim watchers do.

One note about tonight's episode I really love Alex Louis Armstrong ... he's a riot ~ K

Some of the reruns just break my heart though. Okay, like in I think it was... Destruction's right hand? Roy almost committed suicide. I flipped out the first time I saw it! I was like, "YOU GET THAT PISTOL OUT FROM THERE!" and if I have to watch episode 25 again, I'll die... no pun intended...

lol! Ymsg, your funny. XD I felt the same way when I first saw Mustang do that. I was like" NOOO!! Don't! ". For me, it was he was showing that he was human, that he could easily break. He can be so serious, it would make me wonder. I hope I made sense...

Oh, Jen, that was great!! You made perfect sense!! It showed how Roy is human; he can bleed, he can feel, he can hurt, break and so on. That was the first time I'd seen that in him; such an overwhelming sadness... and again in ep 25. Seeing Roy in pain, actual pain, when I'm used to that stoniness just breaks my heart.

That was so sad... ;_;

And, about waiting a long time for FmA episodes.... I just record them and watch them over and over..... and a few weeks ago I just bought the entire series... O.o

Yay! I made sense! LOL
Oh yeah...Episode 25...that was real sad *cries*. I like seeing Roy look more human. Even though it breaks my heart and makes me want to hug him!

i was like coward ass mother bleeper lol pull the trigger already

ok so i wasn't really like that, i don't like it when people commit suicied i think that is cowardly

I find that suicide is a long time answer to a short time problem and probably the most cowardly and selfish thing that you could do. Roy had a better reason than most, but as Marcoh said, live to repent for the deeds that you've done and maybe save a life with that drive.

Omg I saw a picture of Roy pulling the pistol on himself before i saw the auctual episode and totally freaked out! I looked forever trying to find the episode it came from and then it was on the next saturday lol. I wanted to cry though when I auctually saw it! It was depressing beyond all reason!

Lucky wants new FMA now. *cries* I can't wait till September, my short attention span won't let me!!

I also can't wait for the movie to come out. I've been overly obsessive about the movie lately.

Then again, I'm overly obsessive about FMA in general, but oh well. More obsessive than I usually am, anyway.

Ditto, Lucky.

I know, Martel, I just wanted to either shake him til he got his head straight or hug him forever! I was SO upset, scraeming at the screen: YOU IDIOT!! PUT THAT PISTOL DOWN!

I too saw that scene before the episode and I thought to myself "Wtf?!? When does that happen?" and I was shocked to see the episode like a week or 2 later. I saw it in an AMV.

I had my ways of keeping myself busy with FMA episodes. I am not at liberty to say it but rest assured, I was watching FMA more then once a week.

OOOOOOOO!!! <<is obsessed with AMV. I havn't seen one with that scene in it... though thats such an awesome scene lol! I found one thats to "Too sexy" and its sooo funny!

How come you guys got upset when Roy put the gun to his head? It was a flashback, so you knew that he wasn't going to do it.

Well, I borrowed the first DVD from friends never having watched it before on "Adult Swim" and two weeks later they started showing the series three days a week. We set the VCR and watch them Tuesday through Thursday. They start up again in Sept? Woo hoo can't wait.

I've already told my family I want the series on DVD for Christmas. The Brothers Elric rule!

Al, you're right, but seeing our beloved Flame that close to death sends shivers down the spine XD

Yeah, and the look on his face made me (or us..) want to cry and give him hugs.

Yeah, exactly. I wanted to do both XD

It made me so sad seeing Roy that way! Cause I always pictured him as just a skirt grabbing power seeking bastard but then I see how much pain he was still in from Ishbal and how he cares about his subordanates! And then I was like :cries: I LOVE YOU!

Um....WTF?!?

Ok so i was sorta shocked when i saw Roy put the pistol under his chin but i wasn't cryin like a baby. it's obvisous he didn't pull the trigger and it's obvisous he's managed to pull himself together since then.

Umm...I don't think anyone said that they were ACTUALLY crying. At least, I wasn't. I was definately shocked and upset that he would think of doing something like that. But it was understandable.

Well said, Jen. and I'm with you, Martel!! XD

Well, yeah. I felt the need to cry, but I didn't, because it wasn't angsty enough. But it did make me happy that's Roy's alive and well, and whatnot.

Yes. Life without Roy wouldn't be worth it, lol. If they took Roy from us too, oooooh, I'd kill someone..

Omg and I would help you sis. FMA would not be worth it without the Flame!

Thank you! I mean, really. Life without Roy? First they take Maes, the bastards, *cringes* and if they took anyone else I'd torch them. Envy can testify to that. *smirks*
