Probably something that will be a scar of the Elric brothers for a lifetime.

>>2

It’s going to drag out to the punchline here…

Reality

House

I thought the guy on the left was pure evil, but he turned out to be just a pitiful person.

>>4

That’s too bad…

I love Aru’s “This time I’m going to lose it,” but it’s sad that neither is being recreated.

Both the old anime and the new anime, as well as the original direction, are good.

It’s unfortunate that you lack talent, but it wasn’t like you had to sacrifice your family to survive…

There was a speculation in the guidebook that the chimera technology of Amestris was being used as a scapegoat.

In fact, chimeras that completely fuse humans and animals are produced by the Amestris underworld and the movie Creta.

If I had gone through the appraisal without any issues this time, would I have been abducting unrelated people next?

The wind direction changes around the point where Lieutenant Ross is actually revealed to be alive, right?

>>12

I think the wind changes after Rin and the others appear.

Fans from the first season say it’s like an original anime.

Actually, I’m an outsider from another country, but I like Rin and the others.

Only one person was being burned in the flames of hell… while everyone else was going to heaven.

>>15

This is just too much to ask.

>>16

Even Corneo and Barry haven’t fallen, you know…

>>17

Since I can’t openly use people, I need to rather strip away this person’s humanity.

The goals are completely different.

The researchers were mass-producing worthless chimeras, too…

The opening human transmutation and the somewhat dark image it created in the beginning.

>>21

Indeed, the past arc of Ishval and the dark side of the military are quite dark.

The characters are just that strong… that’s all.

The beginning is quite dark, isn’t it?

The manga feels dark or rather severe.

Even though it’s compassion, Scar, you…

I love the cruel fact that even in the final episode, a way to return the thread image was not found, and I really like that the journey to find that method is portrayed as a positive endeavor.

>>52

It might feel like the image of weak humans being consumed by their desires, for better or for worse.

>>28

How unfortunate…

>>52

Whether it’s pitiful or not depends on each person’s feelings, but it doesn’t really feel like a great evil driven by ambition or desire.

The old men of the final party’s chimera are too strong.

If it were a game, I would say this is my research achievement! It’s a profession that transforms in strange ways.

>>30

I remember that in the manga, there was a transformation into a different form towards the end.

Were you trying to make Nina or something?

>>44

That is an old anime.

The finished daughter’s eyes are vacant, but is that okay?

>>44

The first anime has reflected on itself to some extent, produced results, and is being treated as capable while surviving.

Well, it’s not like I’m saved or anything.

The original work is reinforced by the fact that the author himself has failed the exams multiple times, highlighting his incompetence.

Isn’t it great? I’m a veteran soldier, you know?

The upper management must have found it hilarious reading the report presented by Mr. Tucker.

>>32

It doesn’t feel like that, huh?

What’s terrible is

In the center, homunculi are being put to practical use, so this research has no value at all…

If you can reproduce it without using people, it’s definitely valuable.

>>34

Nina and Alexander…

>>35

So it’s not just a matter of what could happen if it’s realized.

It’s just that the threads using people are no good because they can’t be realized.

By the way, it’s a person who is certainly destined to fall into hell.

>>36

It’s just that I don’t understand why Barry and the others are in heaven.

Honestly, I think even father would find it impossible to create a chimera that understands human language without using a person as material.

It’s a country that prohibits human transmutation on the surface.

For those who do not know that the state is an evil institution, this is a report that cannot be ignored.

Even if I thought it was taboo and still went ahead and became defiant, that doesn’t mean the research itself is worthless or that Tucker is extremely incompetent.

Using humans for the military’s chimera intended for human experimentation from the beginning is completely different from the approach to a chimera that can speak human language.

It’s not that I particularly like Mr. Tucker, but mixing things up and making fun of him is a different matter.

If the chimera old men had established the separation technology after the main story, would Nina the dog also have been able to be separated?

>>42

Since it’s a method that involves soul separation, if that can be done, it might be possible to perform human transmutation.

As a disgusting episode, it would be the battle with Ishval.

I can somewhat understand why the guy in the thread looks a bit pathetic…

Even like this, I’m using humans for transmutation, so I might eventually become a human sacrifice…

>>48

An alchemist who understands body composition is already a strong candidate.

I can’t do things outside my field in the first place.

If I don’t produce results in my research, I’ll lose my state alchemist qualification and become unemployed.

In a rush, I ended up making a chimera with my child and pet dog!

Is it like that?

Even if I lost my national qualification, I would still be in high demand as an alchemist.

>>51

I don’t want to lose the status I have gained.

>>51

Mr. Tucker has failed multiple times even before obtaining his national qualification.

It’s hard to know how capable someone is without the chimera.

>>64

He doesn’t have much ability, but since he’s the type to go down a dark path, there’s a chance he might end up causing a disaster and return barely hanging on, so I think it’s more like keeping him around just in case.

>>80

This guy resorted to evil when he was cornered.

I don’t think it suits you to hire someone and make them do immoral acts.

I think it’s rather amazing that, after mixing humans and animals, the human scent has been completely eliminated while maintaining a decent level of intelligence.

Without practice

A regular chimera can be created pretty easily, so that’s already quite an upper tier.

It seems that even if an average person tries to study alchemy, they won’t be able to stabilize inorganic matter transmutation.

The chimera guys have already gathered authority and can use stones, so they definitely surpass individual levels.

Why did you use your family… couldn’t you have just used some drifter or something?

>>61

You’re a coward, so maybe you’re the type to drain your loved ones?

>>61

It was probably mentally easier to use “people who are willing to cooperate” rather than abducting uncooperative individuals.

>>61

I don’t think Mr. Tucker has that kind of guts or strength.

>>74

It feels like I impulsively acted on my wife’s words.

After that, I was failing using a human language chimera without using people, but then I got the idea to use Nina.

Well, it’s obvious that I don’t have any grand ambitions, but that aside, it’s a nauseating evil, isn’t it…

>>62

He’s a bad guy, but ultimately he’s just a self-serving villain without talent.

Did the higher-ups know that Tucker was mixing in humans?

If you didn’t know, you might have just thought it was amazing, right?

>>63

The homunculi are aware.

The Chimera guy is in an environment where it’s okay for people to find out he’s using them in the first place.

There’s no point in Tucker making something like that.

There are some people who do things like this for their papers, and there are also Eds who can write papers casually on the train.

Reusing Mr. Tucker in the old anime really shows a lack of compassion.

I remember that from around this point until Colonel Hughes dies, the story was consistently depressing.

>>72

I also like the severe atmosphere of the early days.

When it comes to synthesizing inorganic materials, I can easily control even the fine details, but I wonder if it’s difficult with organic materials.

The people of Devil’s Nest were all killed too.

I wonder if the women that Greed had with him were killed too…

I completely forgot.

If I can cure the chimera old man, can I also cure Nina and Alexander?

>>76

Either way, they’re already dead, so Nina and Alexander won’t come back…

If the ratio of Alexander to Nina were reversed, there might have been a chance.

>>78

There was a four-panel comic about Dog-eared Nina…

>>81

It’s prohibited, so I won’t do it, but in theory, diseases could be treated with human chimeras, and I could have passed the assessment, right?

>>81

It’s definitely from the first season of the anime, right?

The story of Tucker, who was supposed to be dead but turned into a chimera and was alive.

>>78

The fact that the base body is human is too obvious…

What we intend to create are animals that can understand human language, not humans who can use the powers of old men… the ratio cannot be reversed.

That guy with the gold teeth must have been quite the upper crust.

In other words, there were hardly any alchemists aligned with homunculi except for that guy and Kimblee, so the ranks must be really thin.

>>83

They aren’t considering anything by turning all the strong candidates into stone materials while we don’t have enough human pillars…

>>87

If it’s not enough, we can just have the State Alchemist force open the door like Colonel Mustang… A few of the homunculi that became costs might die, though.

>>96

So when you do that, you have to use up one person with medical knowledge in addition to the homunculus, so in the end, you still need them.

>>96

If there is time, it would be possible to revive lives if father could absorb me again.

Since Mr. Maruko is here, we don’t need Mr. Tucker.

>>89

It would be rather unfair to compare someone to a professional who was entrusted with a research facility for the Philosopher’s Stone.

In the old anime, Ed is about three years younger than in the original, and after being cared for at the Tucker residence for quite some time and having interactions, this is what happens.

It’s nice that Ed can quickly write the paper that was sacrificed for his wife and children with a reporter on the way.

>>94

There are views that say it’s fine for Ed to submit a mediocre paper because he is a human pillar, but I also have the conviction that he wouldn’t submit a paper that would receive a failing grade.

Like a chimera squad, aiming for “beyond human”?

That said, adding modifications is also considered part of human transmutation, right?

The human transmutation that Nii-san will bear as a lifelong sin.

It seems that the colonel, who was forced to do it roughly for people with gold teeth, won’t particularly be burdened by it.

>>97

In the first place, it’s not so much a human transmutation as it is that the gold tooth just turned into a weird meat doll…

>>97

Well, it’s pointed out in the story that it’s strange to say that losing my eyesight after being forced to do something impossible is a sin or a penalty.

While being cornered and creating a failed dog-human, the military has entered a mass production system for soldiers with animal abilities. What is going on?

>>98

That’s because the purpose of the research is different to begin with.

>>98

Well, Tucker hasn’t sacrificed anyone other than his wife and children, but it seems the military has done it multiple times.

Because we also have specialists in the Philosopher’s Stone…

>>98

Gori and the others have not established a mass production system with the few successful examples amid the many failed products.

>>98

The research on biological weapons was being conducted in complete secrecy, but it served as a cover to publicly showcase only this level of technology.

Those mimic homunculi too.

In the end, the chimera guys and the Briggs soldiers easily took them down.

The immortal army is not that great, I guess.

It was bad that I had the cowardice and poor resignation of loving my family like everyone else, but also possessed the ruthlessness to completely abandon it.

The homunculus at the top of Amestris is always underestimating, to the point where Marco said that if his colleagues and subordinates heard it, they would turn to stone!

>>106

Unless you are exceptionally capable, there’s almost no point in securing anything in a country that’s overwhelmed with people…

The person of truth doesn’t think too much…

I really like the comment at the end, even though it’s unrelated to the content.

>>108

It’s impressive that you’re researching real wars to write a fictional war… You could have just portrayed it from your imagination.

I thought it would be better to mass-produce something like Barry or a slicer rather than an immortal army, but they might be too independent to listen.

…The immortal army doesn’t listen either.

>>112

Aren’t all the plans just flimsy, Father and Amestris?

>>114

Even so, it didn’t reveal itself until just before completion.

The solar eclipse is coming soon, but there are no candidates for the sacrifice at all… What should I do…

>>120

I think I did a fist pump when the Elric brothers became sacrifices together.

As for the immortal army, I think it’s not my father’s plan but rather the military’s upper echelons running amok.

In various ways, it’s unnecessary for you, Dad.

The thread image gives off a feeling of a miserable villain.

I liked how the old anime’s Scar recognized Al as a human.

>>123

Well, that Scar pours thousands of souls into Al to save him, turning his whole body into a Philosopher’s Stone armor, and then he dies…

It’s quite strange that the chimera dude is maintaining his ego.

I wonder where the consciousness or soul of the gorilla and lion has gone.

>>124

Are you using a corpse?

>>124

Gori-san must have been Darius on a soul level.

>>124

Aren’t you just losing in the power struggle and retreating behind the scenes?

>>128

I don’t know if my current soul is a gorilla or Darius…

>>124

Did you use just a physical animal or something?

For my father, that Scar who was going around killing talent in this area must be incredibly annoying.

>>127

The original work is talented enough to be left alone.

The early anime was extremely talented.

I think the Immortal Legion was part of my father’s baiting of the military upper echelons.

The reality is that it’s really not practical, and in the end, everyone just turns it into a stone.

It’s not like it can even succeed in creating a tanuki body, right?

So it seems like they pushed a soul into the body of the animal they created, like Al did.

On the father’s side, there are laxities, but since there are no lifespan issues, if one fails, another can be done…

I had thought that Scar’s older brother was just a minor character who was a bit annoying, but I had no way of knowing from Father’s perspective that he was actually an extremely important character who saw through our schemes, which is a bit sad.

It’s not a factor that would darken the atmosphere for the brothers in the early stages, right…?

Well, it’s going to keep clouding over without stopping after this.

It’s great that Marco, who seems to fall into the same category as Tucker, shows his determination and is really strong as a mage despite being downcast and unassuming.

>>139

In the first place, Mr. Marko is much more skilled than Mr. Tucker since he is the main researcher of the military’s Philosopher’s Stone, even without showing his combat abilities…

>>143

I’m fine even if you’re not here anymore, but being told to return the documents makes it look a little pathetic, like you’re trying to manipulate the impression.

It looks like we don’t have enough human sacrifices… For now, let’s postpone it and expand the country through war…

The human pillars are all set, but it’s raining… There’s no helping it, so let’s postpone and go to war to expand the nation…

The weather is nice, but the neighboring countries are in turmoil, so I can’t focus on that… I guess I’ll have to postpone and expand the country through war…

I wonder if it’s possible to adjust how much a person’s ego remains while mixing?

I’ve been told this many times, but it’s best to remember the thread image until the end.

Is it really possible to create a layer of the Philosopher’s Stone between the dragon veins that my father worked with, using tens of thousands of lives?

Even flightless angels get caught up around here, right…?

Even with war on four fronts, civilian life in Amestris is not falling apart—it’s amazing.

>>146

When I think about it again, it really is an outrageous military state.
