Anime News Network has posted a new interview with Vic Mignogna. He talks extensively about voicing ed and his absolute love of the series. He explains how Fullmetal Fantasy happened. Also, he goes into depth about his faith in God and how he reconciles that faith with his acting in general and with playing Ed in particular. It's really quite an interesting read.

What is it about Fullmetal Alchemist that really attracts you to the show?
You know, all I can tell you is that, at least from my experience in anime, it just has everything you love about anime rolled into one show. Some people gravitate towards some shows because they’re funny, or because they’re dramatic, or because they have great character relationships. Well, Fullmetal’s got all of it. I mean, it’s got incredible characters, a great storyline, some very funny episodes, some very powerful, dramatic episodes... It’s just, to me, the best that anime has to offer. Obviously, I’m not alone because it’s a huge success in Japan and here as well. I’m very grateful to God to be a part of it, and I’m thankful to for the opportunity as well.
