Still Watching FMA:B

And I'm thoroughly enjoying the journey.

Right now I just finished episode 56.  I know I didn't post updates of my responses.  I do know that some ninjas came into my house during episode 9 and started cutting onions.  There's been a few other similar intrusions.

I've also discovered the joy of capturing screenshots.  And between episodes 55 and 56, during a fight between a couple of characters, I captured it nearly frame by frame.  250+ screenshots, which I'm currently renaming.  I have to say what happened was brilliant.  One of the characters looked like a mad conductor directing an individual-targeted pyrotechnic symphony of destruction.  Those who have seen the show will know exactly what I'm talking about.  (And I hope that you appreciate the phrase).  Those who have not seen it, really should.

And not just to see what I mean by "mad conductor directing an individual-targeted pyrotechnic symphony of destruction."  What followed afterward was a fantastic discussion between one of the heroes and one of the villains.  It's remarkable that in spite of the havoc that was wrought by the villain in question, Ed says something so simple, yet so genius, you almost can't help but to feel bad for the villain.  Of course by then there's also other things that watchers probably observed that lets you really get into the villain's shoes and understand what Ed said.  And then, well, I can't spoil.  But it was actually hearbreaking.

That all said, I wound up going back and taking another 60+ screenshots to capture that.

Also, when Alex Armstrong meets Mr. Curtis it is epic.
