>Edward Elric was an atheist.>Despite the fact that real-life alchemists were some of the most schizoid, devout, and esoteric Christians imaginable.Why are the Japanese like that?
>>282155375FMA alchemy has very little to do with real world alchemist theories.
cartoons are not real life
that's the fun thing about fiction, you can base it off real things but make them different! did you know you could write a fictional story where rome never falls and it's still a great power in 2025? you're not beholden to what actually happened in history since it's fiction!
>>282155375>fantasy fiction is not a historical documentShocking.
>>282155375Edward was a lot weirder than that, he met the heart of being and reality itself and went "I'm gonna call myself an unbeliever" to cope
>>282155375Edward was an atheist in the sense he knew God existed but was just pissed at him.
FMA is a joke.
Because part of his character is having a chip on his shoulder and pretending he knows better than everyone. At least in the very early part of the series until he grows up.
>>282156580FMA is awesome
>>282155375You dumb fucking retard. Those two alchemist have nothing in common. Autist loser with no fucking life
>>282155375Hermeticism is gnostic.
>>282156691Yes!
Edward is cute and sweet, not weird and anonoying.

>>282157731Tanked btw.
>>282155375He originally just says he’s not religious. For whatever reason it got translated as him saying he’s an atheist
>>282157923Other way around.In the anime, Edward states he is an atheist. In the dub, Edward's VA (Vic something-or-other) pushed for him to be agnostic.
>>282157960Still wondering why they changed it.
>>282157992The dub VA is the very weird kind of Christian, that's really the only reason.
>>282155375What causes a person to make a thread where they try to come off as smart while simultaneously being so retarded that they missed some of the most blatant character development in anime?
The most important thing is worshipping mommy Hawkeye.
>>282158074There’s a resident schizo that shills FMA troll threads that doesn’t really understand the story so that could be it.
>>282158194That's not how she's shaped, you ruined it Also AI slop
>>282155375He was playing devils advocate with the girl who believed the words ans miracles of that clergyman. He literally met God and bargained for his brothers life.
>>282158254But muscles add a nice touch to german milf dominas.AI slops always improve.
>>282158074Attention seeking.Women and trannies do it alot.
>>282158377It's slop by definition, AI will always be slop no matter how good it looks. And it's not just the muscles that are wrong
