Even though it's from the Brotherhood timeline the writing is far better than the BH series. The characters are ok, but with the way the opening went it was one of those "Who are these people and why should I care?" but stuff hit the fan very fast from the get go. They use a very simplified means of Alchemist that turns out to be way more dangerous and seemingly more unstable than the stuff we're use to. I don't know why Roy, Riza, and Winry had to be there. That was just annoying to me. They really didn't do anything. I will ending was surprising andI like it when the characters have a resolve.

I suggest the dub over the sub.
