Thank you very much to George for commissioning this episode! In these chapters, we get the meeting of Calder and Andel, and it turns out that their relationship makes a lot more sense in retrospect now that I know why Andel was originally brought aboard. We also have the first meeting with Urzaia, but this isn't when he actually joins the team. What a delight he is. Thank you all for listening, a...

Thank you very much to Max for commissioning this episode! In this episode, we get the fight where Pride has to consume Gluttony in order to keep his strength up. I keep having to be reminded that Pride isn't a kid, and that the tactics I'm expecting him to use aren't necessary. Also, Father has been put into the war room to discuss what Mustang is about to do, and turns out they were correct in a...

Thank you to George for commissioning this episode! Alright it's time to launch into Calder's story, and find out exactly how he got to where he is. There's a remarkable attack that tears an entire ship in half, and Calder has to do his best to hold it together. Literally. In flashbacks we get to see Jyrene's cult and the strange events that lead to her getting a soulbound vessel. Thanks to you al...

Thank you again to Max for commissioning this episode! In this one, Al is getting puppeted by Pride in a sequence that is very upsetting because I HATE my cinnamon roll getting hurt. However, I'm very okay with Hohenheim getting hurt,so when Ed decks him across the face I couldn't help but cheer. I go on a bit of a rant about the man again, so get ready. Thanks for listening, and I will see you so...

Thank you so much to George for commissioning this episode! It's time for the end of the first of the second books. That sentence was confusing, but if you know you know. It ends with Shera as the new Guild Head, which I absolutely was not ready for and I am lowkey psyched about. I'm so excited to watch how much Yala is gonna fucking hate this. I'm just a little sad that she's still alive after al...

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! I'm so curious what the hell is going on with Al, and I just want him to get through the dang portal and get his body back because I simply HATE this for him. Pride grips him up by the end of the episode, and if ANYTHING HAPPENS TO MY SWEET CINNAMON ROLL I WILL RIOT. Also, Ed is taller. Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episod...

Thank you very much to George for commissioning this episode! I cannot tell you all how much I loved this. I won't bother explaining here because I do on the show, but damn. What a writer. Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! In this one, we get to see a fight between General Armstrong and Major Armstrong, and when I tell you I loved every second of this I'm not even exaggerating a little bit. There's no second of this that wasn't just wonderful. Also, Greed seems like he might be either ready to betray his fellow homunculi, or he's got some other con going on. I'm not g...

Thank you so much to George for commissioning this episode! I can't believe Lucan is dead. I really can't, honestly, and I'm super sad about it. I want there to be something that can bring him back, but at the same time that would cheapen the whole thing and I would hate it. Meanwhile, we're getting closer and closer to the moment when Shera kills the Emperor. Thanks for listening, and I will see...

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! In this episode, Ed and Al are still separated and Al winds up in Liore where his father is and they have a very not-memorable reunion. The thing that really gets me, though, is Greed running into a friend that he doesn't remember and killing him while the guy just asks why. Ugh. I hated it. Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new e...

Thank you very much to George for commissioning this episode! In these chapters, Lucan begins a mission to go and check out the Optasia, a seat that the Emperor has used to address Elder problems from afar, and see if there's a way to disable it. He decides pretty quickly it needs to be destroyed. Meanwhile, Shera takes a shower and long soak with Teach, and says that she will do her best not to k...

Thank you ever so much to Max for commissioning all these episodes! In this episode the Fuhrer tells Hawkeye that he actually did choose his wife. I can't really tell if that's an expression of affection, or if there was something strategic in his choice, but I'm suspicious of him sharing this information at all. Meanwhile, I thought that our crew was being betrayed but it turns out it was all a t...

Thank you to George for commissioning this episode! In these chapters, our original trio of the Emperor's helpers go with Shera is kind of entrapped into a situation in which she loses her cool and completely gives in to the will of her blade. She ends up killing the head of a Guild, which is a pretty serious offense. I can't imagine this is going anywhere good. Thanks so much for listening, and I...

Thank you very much to Max for commissioning this episode! In this episode, we get to see some of the information about Alkahestry getting decoded by our friends. Meanwhile, Kimblee is under pressure to carve the blood sigil for the Homunculi and he somehow convinces another country to attack? And of course, we watch Hempstool probe the depths of the tunnels under Liore and find Pride, and we get...

Thank you to George for commissioning this episode! In these chapters, we get to see a new character, a nameless slave, that it takes me way too long to realize is probably the Emperor. Also, Shera and Ayana catch up with Darius and there's a confrontation outside of the Luminian headquarters. Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Max for commissioning this episode! This is the one where Ed faces off with Kimblee and gets impaled and has to be assisted by a pair of Chimeras who decide to defect from Kimblee's team. It's interesting to see this happen again, and it really seems like there should be a better benefits package for the Chimera considering how unhappy they all seem to be. Meanwhile, Al keep...

Thank you to George for commissioning this episode! These are the chapters where we're introduced to Darius from the Luminian Order, who seems like an all-around great guy despite his affliction. But Darius being so kind and empathetic just underscores how horrific some aspects of his Order really are, because he's here to save 3 little girls and the Luminians just want to execute them. Lowkey I c...

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! So this is it! We get to see what happened to Hempstool all those centuries ago, and it turns out that he's basically a Philosopher's Stone in human form! I still don't get info on how he was able to summon some little creepy lumps out of his chest to do his bidding, but hey, can't win them all. Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon...

Thank you very much to George for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones in which Shera finds out that the kids that she used to work with when she was on the streets have likely been scooped up and turned into assassins by someone else, and that they didn't get out the way she'd imagined. This means that she's not prepared to be on the run from the Consultants, so when Lucan grab...

Thank you very much to Max for commissioning this episode! In this episode we get the reveal of just how things were set up with Scar pretending to kidnap Winry, and the group splits up. Ed stays behind with Miles, but Scar & Co. head into the tunnels, and Al heads out into the snowstorm after them once they get the news that Briggs is being taken over. I still think Kimblee seems to be aware that...

Thank you very much to George for commissioning this episode! I'm so excited to be getting back into this universe, and we're hitting the ground running by opening with a series of assassination attempts on Regents. Some of them suck and seem to deserve it, and some seem to really be doing their best to help. So what's the deal? Shera seems to think that it's the kids she used to roll with who hav...

Thank you so much to Max for commissioning this episode! So this episode is when our friends head out into the wintry wastelands, heading toward an abandoned mining town called Baschool. Scar & Co. are hiding out there, and we get a confrontation that ends up going in a surprising direction. Kimblee is getting played, and it seems like he's going to figure it out sooner rather than later...but per...

Thank you to Heather for commissioning this episode! So these chapters are the ones in which shit really begins to hit the fan. Elgen Spears has made his move, taking over several world governments and assassinating their leaders on live-streams being fed to every active screen in the world. I genuinely didn't know how he was going to pull this off, but I'm hopeful that he will be hoisted on his o...

Thank you very much to Yama for commissioning this episode! In these chapters, we have an amazing faceoff between The Lone One and Ponch, and it's just wonderful. I was not expecting this at all. However, that is NOT to say that we haven't suffered some terrible losses, and I'm not sure how permanent they all are but I suspect one of them might be a done deal. Thanks so much for listening, and I w...

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! In this episode WE FIND OUT WHO THE FUCK PRIDE IS OMG
