Especially now since Bradley has taken Roy's precious darling away, eh Twilightz? wink.gif

I chose Ed and Roy. They remind me of those little kids who say they hate each other and swear they will defeat the other one day in a Pokemon battle, or some other game. But beyond all that, they're really just best friends.

Boys will be boys. How sweet...

Ed: What're you calling sweet? Me and that stuck-up pig? Friends? *snorts in laughter* We're rivals to the end.
Roy: Well if I'm a stuck-up pig, then you're a shorty.
Ed: Who're you calling so short that he can't be seen even under a microscope?
Roy: What's that buzzing I hear? Sounds like an insect, but I can't see anything. Hmm... Maybe because it's too SMALL. *evil grin*
Ed: Why you... Obnoxious ass!

Are they supposed to be soldiers? Sheesh!

Rivalries really aren't like Ed and Wrath or Ed and Envy. That's just hatred. Rivalries are more two people who are at ends with each other for no other reason then wanting to outshine the other. I'd say Ed/Roy and Ed/Russell are really the only two actual rivalries here.

But even with the others included, nothing beats Ed and Roy.

I just have 1 question to say. Who the *bleep* is Kimlee? Anyways, I think Ed and Envy make a pretty good rivalry. Who's with me?

Edward vs Envy, two of my favorite characters.

I only remembered now, but it was in in the pool by the time I voted, I would have voted Ed vs Scar.

I say Envy vs Wrath. Sure, its only for like, two seconds in two episodes, but it's funny to see that they don't get along. Envy kicks Wrath sometimes, and I'm pretty sure Envy thinks he's annoying. (but I don't know for sure)
Winry Elric
I love the rivalry between Roy and Ed^^ It's hilarious how they always like to be sarcastic and try to beat each other on who can make the better insults. It's like two little kids in kindergarten only with better vocabulary laugh.gif

Roy vs. Ed! I find it interesting because Ed looks like he's really pissed whenever he and Roy would meet tongue.gif
FMA-Girl
Roy vs Winry.

Ed x Roy. Very funny to watch they insult each other. biggrin.gif

I do like the Ed and Russell rivalry, it's cute, biggrin.gif but I also like Roy and Pride...very intense. "How many times do I have to kill you before you die?" Epic. That scene was just amazing...I clapped. XD

But I voted Kimblee versus Martel. Killing her friends is only part of it, but that alone made the whole "I'll search him out and kill him" thing a great rivalry because it was on such a personal level- here's someone who lived with them for a while, then turned his back on them and had fun doing it. (is that a spoiler?) The chimeras must have trusted Kimblee at least somewhat... Martel, a character focused on revenge, wouldn't take anything lying down, and Kimblee is the sort who'd have fun causing misery to others. Too bad Martel got killed by Bradley...

Added a new poll category (FMA:Brotherhood, FMA manga rivalries).

Those who had already voted before, sorry but you can't vote on this poll again, but if you can note that on your post and tell us which new FMA:B/manga rivalries are your favorites, then I can manually add your vote to the poll. smile.gif

Roy vs. Ed is always awesome, in the manga or anime tongue.gif For manga/Brotherhood specifically, I love Riza vs. Pride / Roy vs. Pride. Also, Ling vs. Greed is very interesting.....
rosieechan
I'm the only one that chose Ed vs Father? ohmy.gif Come on!

Ed vs Roy was awesome, both in the anime and the manga.

My favorite is Ling vs. Wrath, though (in the manga/Brotherhood) smile.gif

^ @Kaen~No~Sanshouuo and rosieechan - Yes, I got the similar requests from others also. Hence...

Added Lin vs. Greed, & Lin vs Bradley to the poll choices. smile.gif

No Ed vs Kimbley? Fair enough - the one who had the biggest score to settle with him was Scar, his final battle was with Alphonse and Kimbley antagonises pretty much everyone anyway. But I did find that the fight with Kimbley and the preceding tension were a crucial point in Ed's character development, the definite test of his resolve to get their bodies back without having anyone killed, either friend or foe. And Kimbley acknowledges Ed's determination in his little chat to Pride.

I guess in a way 'Kimbley vs the Elric Brothers' would be most appropriate - Ed never gets a rematch after the mine incident, but to me it seems that Alphonse was speaking both their minds when he tells Kimbley they are unwilling to compromise neither their principles, nor their desire to return their bodies.

EdvsWinry, huh? I don't get it...also, I like ScarxWinry, its deep and Hiromu could have made something more badass out of it, but meh.
