And now I'm thinking, did he ever really learn from that? He kept on trying fruitlessly to get back home at the end. Over and over he kept on trying, even though he knows realistically, theres no way back except through the gate, and theres no way to open the gate without alchemy, but he keeps on trying over and over, no one here to stop him this time.
One scene from fma 2003 that I just fully loose it every time I see it, is early on in the series, it starts raining after the chimera that was nina is killed by scar and ed finds her stained on the wall, he claps, puts his hands on the wall to try and transmute her back, over and over and over again, until his gloves are stained red with the blood. Realistically, he knows theres no way to bring her back, he doesnt have any components, nothing, but that doesnt stop him, he keeps on doing it over and over until al and mustang stop him.
#aaaaaaaa just. he never really learned how to give up and thats his biggest strength and weakness.#fma#fma03#馃悵.buzz#馃悵.watchin fma

The fact that theres more tropes for fma bh sloth than fma03 sloth is an actual crime
#ngl the tvtropes for fma03 is like. so empty i hate it here. like cmon. give the show its due credit wtf#and the fact that most tropes on 03 say 'well bh did it better so :/ ' literally#i use tv tropes alot. and i needed a ref for the homonculi real quick so i looked it up and everything for 03 is so mean. like cmon man.#馃悵.watchin fma

Bestie I'm literally obsessed with the thought of fmab and fma 2003 somehow existing in the same universe and the gate can open to the different worlds... like I literally cannot stop thinking about this...

Small addendum! It was fully ed who dug up her grave and it was fully ed who was the one who killed her! So. Uhhhh.
Another thing about fma 2003 that is going to stay with me forever is they had to fight and kill the homunculus of their own mom that they created. And the only way to really kill a homonculi here is to use the remains of the person attempted to be brought back. That's immeasurably messed up. So not only did they have to kill her, they also had to dig up their moms grave to take her remains and use that to kill her. All while shes saying some of the worst things to them. The mistakes of their past come back to haunt them in a very literal sense.
#fma#fullmetal alchemist#fma 2003#馃悵.watchin fma#aaaaaaa fmab ed kept his morals to not kill anyone but fma 03 ed didnt have that. that fundamentally changes their characters alot too. like#o3 ed couldnt afford to not kill and he had to kill his own MOM eventually.#thw first time he killed someone was green and he fully broke down after but once he killed his own mom a bit later he didnt even flinch#pretty sure he said smth like its bad that its gotten easier. like ahhhhhh#just. fmab ed and fma 03 ed end up as entirely different arcs so they become different.

So I'm watching fma 2003 with my brothers girlfriend who has only seen fmab and heres some highlights of it:
Her: so does ed still give up alchemy for al in the end?
Me: I'm going to say yes but not exactly. Technically he doesnt have alchemy anymore at the end of the series. And in a roundabout way he does give it up for al. (But he gave up more than alchemy to get al back)
Her: but he still gets al back right?
Me: shrug. Not quite. Kinda. Its complicated. But yes al does come back at the end with a body. (They just aren't together, ed trapped in a war torn world without alchemy, surrounded by the faces of those he once knew from his world, and al doesnt even know what ed did having no memory of the past 4 years and in a body that's 11 again)
Her: are the homunculus are still the same?
Me: uuhhh. No. Not at all. Their origins are not the same. That is very different for a specific reason. And their personalities are a little different too. (They are created through human transmutation to bring back the dead. So their failed resurrection of their mom in a very literal way comes back to haunt them. As one of the homunculus)
Her: hoenheim has to be the same tho, hes the philosophers stone!
Me: actually in this one he used to make philosophers stone's (in order to live longer, so he did in fact orchestrate enough death to get stones enough to transmute himself to another body to live a few times over. So he is centuries old and the cause of alot of deaths)
Her: do ed and winry still get together at the end tho?
Me: hm. Surprisingly enough! no they do not. Ed doesnt get with anyone at the end. And neither does winry.
Her: but all the characters in brotherhood still come up right?
Me: well seeing as how this was done at the beginning of the manga which finished well after the show was done, no they arent in this one sorry
Her: so your telling me that tucker comes back? Scar didnt kill him?
Me: yes and that's not even the worst part about it.
Her: what happens to hughes still does tho? Because that was the saddest and darkest moment in brotherhood, I cry every time.
Me: unfortunately yes. Even more unfortunate is that it isnt the saddest moment in 2003. That has to be the ending.
Her: why is the ending sad? Dont they still get Al's body back? Even though ed gives up alchemy for him? Everyone still gets a happy ending right?
Me: I'm so glad that's what you think happens, so I'm going to let you believe that for a while. (I'm so sorry but there isnt a happy ending, not for this one, at best its bittersweet at worst they're dead, all this fighting all this death so an already ancient old woman could live a bit longer, and at the end al gets a body but not the memories and ed looses alchemy yeah but what he gave up for al was himself and it's an eye for an eye, a soul for a soul but Ed's tainted soul just wasnt enough for the toll, so hes trapped on the other side of the gate which is our world in the 1920s without alchemy without al without any of his friends and family from his world in this one surrounded by the faces of his friends and family but it's not them it's just a mirror of them that doesnt know him and theres no way back to the home you burned down yourself a long time ago and theres no coming back to a world that you traded places with for al, after all that's equivalent exchange, a life for a life.)
#fma#fullmetal alchemist#fma 2003#馃悵.watchin fma#馃悵.buzz#just....love accidentally getting people into fma 2003 once they realize how different it is from brotherhood like yes come to the dark side#well. its just so much darker than fmab ok. it really it. thats not a bad thing if anything it enders me to it more#fma spoilers#fmab spoilers#fma 2003 spoilers#so much fun to watch fma 2003 with people who have only seen fmab. like you really think this gets a happy ending? for them?? no!!#no one gets a happy ending at best its bittersweet at worst theyre dead.#because boy do so many more characters die in this than fmab. like. almost everyone who isnt a main character really.#and by cos its even more dead! so yeah that hurts.#idk man but i cannot stop having thoughts bout this show ahhhhhh#girl help i got involed in a show literally almost 20 years too late#and everyone wats to talk about the younger sibling no one wants to talk about the older one like ahhhhhhhh#loosing my mind over this show#long post#just cuz it a but long

One of my favorite things abt 03 is that there are real consequences to their actions. Theres an equivalent exchange for that.
I'm never going to be over the fact that in fma 2003, alchemy is literally powered by the death and destruction and tragedy and war in our world on the other side of the gate. The price for magic is to pull it from the our world and leave it in a constant state of disarray
#i have much more thoughts but no articulation so thats what you get tn.#long post#馃悵.buzz#馃悵.watchin fma#fma#no more thoughts abt this i have progressed past the need to expand on this specific post. today. tomorrow i might tho#b.text

What makes fma 2003 all the more Tragic is the reason for all the death and destruction and despair caused by the creation of the stone is all for something so mundane and petty and vain. It's not some grand lofty goal to become unto a god, it's to extend someones already ridiculous and pointlessly long lifetime for just a few more years. All this just so one person who has lived for centuries can go on for a few more years then the cycle starts all over again. All the corruption in the military, all the wars, all the massacres, everything carefully crafted just so, for dante to live a little longer in her big empty house in the middle of the woods doing nothing. It's all so meaningless. It's not some big earth shattering disaster, it's so much more human and flawed and tragic because of that.
That's really part if what makes it so compelling, the real Tragedy it all is that the end goal isn't something world ending thing, it's just a bitter old lady who strayed so far from being human she forgot how to be anymore. Dante thought she should be able to live forever and so many people payed the price of that. All this suffering is for an old lady to get to be a little bit older so she can do it all over again in a few years. The real tragedy is that all this pain and death is for nothing.
#fma#fullmetal alchemist#fullmetal alchemist 2003#馃悵.watchin fma#look i am just having Thoughts abt the differences in fma 2003 and fmab and how fmab is so much more#big huge battles that have such high stakes and could end the world and all#and the reasons behind all that are so big and all#and fma 2003 the battles are short and brutal and its still so much at stake but so much is lost too and for what for an old lady#to get to be a little bit older and for thousands and thousands to die on her personal quest for eternal life. its just.#so tragic that all thsi is for such reasons ig#none of this is even to say anything about how the gate works either which makes it just 10x sadder too#aaaaaa im never gonna be over fma 2003 am i.thats fine im fine with that.#馃悵.buzz#fma 2003 fans where u at!!!!
