ANIMATION POLL!
Added 2025-09-01 08:53:12 +0000 UTCAlrighty, I need to figure out what animated series I'm going to watch next, and it kinda needs to be fast, since I want to start reacting this week. SO, here are 10 options, and you only get about a days time to vote. After that the 4 options with the most votes will move on to the final poll on YouTube. I have taken into consideration what I'd like to watch (of course), but also number of episodes (can't be too many, reason why I didn't include something like Bleach) and how popular the series are. If you have any questions, let me know in the comments. Otherwise, please vote vote vote!

I am of those irritating few that argue that FMAB is a masterpiece, yet one that is flawed without prior knowledge of the OG 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist. Hear me out. FMAB deliberately chose to botch the adaptation of the early manga chapters, or at the very least to speedrun it, so it woudn't retread the material already faithfully adapted a mere six years before. That choice made sense at the time, since the makers of FMAB understandably thought everyone who'd see FMAB at its release would have seen FMA 03, but it weakens the show for those later generations who discover it on its own. And, incidentally, it full on bit them in the ass towards the end, as there is, in one episode, a full flashback towards events (Youswell) that we never saw in FMAB but that were seen in the original. Don't get me wrong, I love FMAB, and it delivers the original ending, but I still think FMA 03 is a far superior introduction to the universe in terms of how it introduces the characters and paces its reveals.

2025-09-02 09:08:02 +0000 UTCWhile FMA:B is kind of long, it's not as long as bleach. It's a total of 64 episodes. But this anime series is a standard amongst anime watchers and it is recommended to be watched immediately. It is a very good series that does a good amount of story teliing. There is some heart wrenching drama but outside its a fun ride and has a lot light hearted comedy unlike AOT.
