Very insightful about Winry and Dominic, thank you for that! And love the suggestion to review those posters and the teasing up you did of what may be some important plot points to come 🙏

And now you know the one time a year both FMA:B and Mean Girls fans unite. And yea, while it is kind of a filler based episode, it serves to help reinforce the importance of bringing life into the world and Ed talking about how alchemists can't do that with alchemy and helps with the balance of life taken in the last episode and now showing life being brought into the world.

Well, that was one of the most uninformed statements of a Mr. Beast controversy I’ve ever heard. I would definitely look into the specifics of why that particular incident garnered the negative attention it did, because it’s definitely not arrogance. Moving along… There is definitely a level of arrogance with Dominic, but most of it comes from, at least in my perspective, not being a very sociable person. There’s two core skill sets an automail engineer needs: the engineering side, and the medical side (ensuring the prosthetic works with the recipient’s body type, connecting to the nerves, physical therapy, etc.). Winry, as the daughter of two doctors and granddaughter of an engineer, embodies both sides of the trade naturally. This includes her bedside manner. Dominic, by contrast, excels in the engineering side, and although he clearly has a strong sense of empathy, has shortcomings on the medical side. He sees things more as a problem to be solved, an equation to be balanced, and applies his skill to fix those problems. Winry by contrast has the human skills to address the underlying human issues. Paninya had been stealing for *years* and despite refusing to take anything from her, Dominic couldn’t get her to stop, whereas in a single day Winry could make the emotional connection to diagnose the problem and convinced her to change her ways. Bottom line is that Dominic just wouldn’t be a good teacher for Winry even if he wanted to do it. They’re just incompatible. Those wanted posters near the end, I recommend going back to them. Remember what I’ve been saying in nearly every video comment: there are no throwaway details in FMA, every single little thing means something. The one on the left is obviously Scar. The one in the middle, that character you haven’t seen before, but it’s clearly not a throwaway design, he’s way too detailed and unique looking. The one on the right is a character named Yoki. FMA: Brotherhood skips over his early appearance in the story that occurs near the beginning of the manga and the 2003 anime, but you may have recognized him from the Ishvalan refugee camp. He was a military officer who was abusing his position in a mining town to line his own pockets, but was exposed by the Elric brothers. And now, well, now he’s with Scar. Where could that go? And who is the man in the middle? Mysteries upon mysteries…
