Which version is objectively the better one? 2003, or Brotherhood?
Depends on what criteria you are 'objectively' comparing them.
>>275230617Brotherhood has a better soundtrack imo.
>>275230617I heard brother hood follow the manga while the 2003 version branched off after a while in to something completely different
>>275230666>Depends on what criteria you are 'objectively' comparing them.In all criteria: be it animation, art-direction, ost, story, voice lines, etc.
>>275230617Oh btw brotherhood was the one rated nr1 on mal for years
Bradley returning to central after the train blew up and one man rushing the command center is more kino than anything that happens in 2003
>>275230868christ I hate the constant need for (literally) cheap remakes of everything, even more so in examples like this that show that the original is 10 times better in one way or another
>>275230838I heard that as well. One of the more blatant changes, for instance, would be the homunculi and some of their identities.
>>275231083I just rewatched brotherhood and cheap isn't a word I'd use to describe it.Much better than the original unless you're a contrarian who likes to cherrypick frames.
>>275230617>Which version is objectively the better one?They're both soulless trash, so who cares?
>>275230617They're both great actually. I should give all the installments a rewatch, and read it, to that matter. I recommend the GBA games btw
>>275231345>cheap isn't a word I'd use to describe it.I would, and it's not just for how worse the artstyle is but also for how Brotherhood glosses over stuff at a faster pace; stuff that's actually shown in the 2003 one.
>>2752306172003 is for adults.Brotherhood and the manga are for children and teens.Simple as.
Bruh, why did it take Edward the entire series to be with Winry? Was he fucking stupid?
>>275232159She wasn't into guys shorter than her.
>>275231083Brotherhood wasn't trying to remake 2003, it was trying to reboot the manga and adapt it in its entirety. 2003 was an illegitimate child between a fanfic and an ad at the very day. A very good child, but still.
>>275232159Eren never slept with Mikasa and Deku still hasn't scored so in retrospect it wasn't that bad.
>>275230617the answer depends on your preference on style and tone of the story, as well as animation. I dont think an objective answer is possible, in regards to artistic works
>>275233011>Eren never slept with Mikasa and Deku still hasn't scoredTbf they're both loser chuds, so of course they wouldn't score.
>>275232748>in its entirety>skips over certain parts they know you've seen in 2003This ain't it
I like 03 but it's annoying that the show chooses to end in a way that leads to the movie rather than giving some kind of satisfying payoff instead and then making a movie. That said, I do like the movie and the show more than Brotherhood but that's not to say I dislike Brotherhood.
>>275231016this
>>275231016ngl, that was pretty kino.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MItZl5DWjws
>>275230617I think 2003 is better as a self-contained work and the intro to each episode is legendary. Brotherhood opens on such a bad note because of the weird order at the beginning and their refusal to re-do things that had already been animated. It's really enhanced by certain episodes of 2003, which is why there's a guy working on FMA:B Re-Edited. That said, I think the manga is better than both, so the parts that Brotherhood does adapt correctly are pretty fucking good between the story, music, and voice acting. I really wish they'd just made Brotherhood a 1:1 adaptation of the manga.
>>275233011 At least Ed didn’t spend half the series crying in a corner about his feelings like those two. Small wins, I guess.
Rage or Pride?Which on fits him better?
2003 did nina better
