Oh. That was confusing. There are two 'what are you reading' threads? I made it through mah shift! Kinda brain fried. I want to catch up on everything but I don't have the brain capacity to deal with notifications. Tough life, huh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day threads used to run out of pages, so we had to start new ones. The current 'what are you reading' is "part 2". With the forum overhaul there is no need to start new threads anymore as we won't run out of pages. Unless @Delightfully Smoak has a dream that new thread was created, of course. Now, for the big question: why am I explaining it to you? You joined more than two years earlier than me! I have only been around for 1.5 years! I've got no authority on 17th Shard's history!

Oversleep Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Quiver said: There's two anime, three films, a manga series, at least one OVA, and a live action movie. First anime is nothing worthy of concerning yourself with; Brotherhood on the other hand is faithful to the manga so it doesn't matter which one of them you go with. I never watch films that come with anime series, I see no point. And I thought live action movie is being only developed so it's not there yet? OVAs are usually not important, right? All in all, you only need to read manga or watch FMA:Brotherhood. Edited May 8, 2017 by Oversleep 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah, I hid my post because I was concerned it was too spoilery, guess you got there faster than I did Anyhow, yeah, the manga and Brotherhood tell a complete story. There is ONE small chapter they leave out, but it becomes a brick joke later on, so. That's fine DELIGHTFUL, DON'T READ THIS. Honestly, I've never seen the films for FMA, other than Conqueror of Shambala, since.. it's basically the finale for the 2003 series. There are trailers out for the live action film if that counts? Maybe I'm wrong about the OVA? I kind of remember there being... something featuring three kids who kind of resemble Al, Ed and Winry in our world, with the implication they were Ed or Al's grandchildren. Not a major thing, but then, my comment was mostly just snark bait to begin with 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Honor Spren she/her Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 17 minutes ago, Delightfully Smoak said: OVA? An OVA is an episode irrelevant to the plot of an anime that's released with the DVD. They're usually just for fun and fanservice (by which I mean having characters pop up that the audience loves, teasing them with their otp, or harkening back to jokes from other episodes, but it can be the other kind of fanservice too.) But sometimes it's an episode featuring and/or showing the backstory of a side character that there wasn't room for in the series. I generally find them enjoyable, especially while I'm waiting for the next season to come out and really need something to tide me over. As an example, if The Stormlight Archive was an anime, Edgedancer would probably be released as an OVA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
