Brotherhood eps. 52-54

Okay, that was well worth watching. On the whole, I thought Al's fight and Roy's fight came off better in the manga, but they were still amazing. But the end part of Roy's, in 54, was incredible. And the subtext - it doesn't even seem right to call it "subtext" anymore, more like all but spelling in out in BIG NEON LETTERS. And I thought it got strong in the manga, geez, that was nothing compared to Roy/Maes flashback central here.

And I'll be damned if I don't have a fem-crush on Olivia now. I mean, she's awesome in the manga, but that voice did me in. Apparently all it takes to make me question my sexuality is an amazing badass voice *coughPakuRomicough*

*nods* Big neon letters ten yards high.
It was kinda nice that at the end of the Hughes montage Gracia and Elysia were included. That had me going from 'Wow Roy maybe you should calm down a little, you're starting to look psycho' to 'the b*st*rd took away the adorable little girl's daddy! Roast him already!'

I know, I had a total "He made Elysia and Gracia cry!! Roast him, roast him!!" reaction. Right after the "holy shit he made Envy cower in fear--!" reaction. Hoo damn, that man can work a lover's rage!

Oh damn right he can. I can't wait to watch the dub of that episode. *sighs and devolves into goo*
