Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood – Episode 03 ENGLISH DUB Review

Episode 3, "The Town of Heresy"

*****SPOILERS*****

Synopsis: In the town of Lior, the Elric brothers learn of a preist named Cornello who can perform "miracles". Investigating, they discover that the man is a fraud, using what seems to be a Philosopher’s Stone to bypass the law of Equivalent Exchange. Confronting him, they also expose his deception to the townspeople. Edward defeats Cornello, who goes into hiding, only to be killed by two mysterious figures.

Comments:

This was probably the best episode of the Brotherhood dub yet. I think it’s probably because it was about as mediocre as I expected it with no additional surprises of failure. Everyone pretty much sounded exactly the same in their roles as they did in the Lior bit from the first series. It’s not as though that’s glowing praise, but it was tolerable, at least. read more

Finished GN-X

After a decent delay my MG GN-X has been finished. (All images link to Flickr)

For whatever reason the paint I applied clips realllly easily. Had to do a lot of touch ups prior to my final top coat. The poses are sort of lack luster because I didn’t want to risk causing more damage than there already is. Unfortunately the arm isn’t strong enough to hold the huge gun on it’s own.

I made sure to not put any coating on the silver pieces. Stands out great this way. read more
