Re. Brotherhood ep. 3

Okay, I'm still waiting to be impressed. Because that - whatEVER the hell that was - did not impress me.

Since they made such a big deal about using the manga story line, I had hoped they'd stick a little closer to the manga. Not that - that mess they're trying to pass off as storytelling.

At this point, yeah, I wouldn't be surprised. Since not only are they rushing through the early story, they appear to be skipping over anything that's not "necessary" (Youswell and the train). If they'd actually stuck to the storyboard the manga provides, these first episodes would have been similar to the first anime, but fans would have been kept happy for hours picking out all the subtle differences. And the story would have made sense. Instead we get a rushed story line and mediocre storytelling.
