ok so i just watched the second episode and realised that they have really shortened the back story and completel skipped over the filler episodes that were there at the start of the 1st season.

Its got me wondering if this series is only going to be 25ish epsiodes or 50 full episodes like the last of the anime series.

 

 I read before that they plan for this series to end in about a year (coinciding with when the manga is expected to end), and there are approximately 52 weeks in a year, so it would make sense for it to be around 50 again. I haven't read the manga, so I don't know the pacing there, but they may also be shortening the front end somewhat so that they can get to the later/new content faster for people who saw the original version.

Thats great, because i remember thinking that towards the end of the first anime of FMA i felt the storyline was a little bit rushed an they could of done more with it.

 

@lolita: ye whenever japanese voices are in anime if its a little kid it always sounds like a girl (a little fact for you, the english voice for ash from pokemon was actually a woman), but i find i get used to it, and then find english dubs unbearable. TO be honest i dont think theres anything wrong with Ed's voice, but then again i'm used to see since i watched the first FMA like 2 times over
