Welcome to Gaia! ::

im sure a lot of us have noticed this but, its so OBVIOUS how the anime (the first one) is connected to the Manga.

i mean i just realized that wrath from the anime was alphonse from the manga. like arakawa just gave the anime writers the story board with out any words and they just kinda worked off of it. i mean look at alphonse when hes in the gate, and then look at wrath. They're both extraordinarily scrawny and other stuff. like you can clearly see the similarities.

another example is that roy lost eye sight in both plots.

also Hoenhime died in both! (btw SUPPER SAD FACE TO THAT)


idk if im really explaining this well, but i just kinda made the connection my self and wondered if anyone else noticed these little bridges

nonono see...

when arakawa gave the story board to the anime writers, she wasnt done with the entire plot, SO the anime writers had to use what ever information they had to make the anime

and i just wanted to point out that it is kinda clear that arakawa gave them enough of the plot to show there was a malnutritioned boy in the gate, but not who it was, so the anime writers said it must be another homonculus -wrath. WHEN intentionally arakawa meant for it to be alphonse

also, arakawa also probably let the anime writers know that selim's presence would be important, but didnt say how, hence selim was introduced in the anime only to have no actual impact on the anime's plot since the anime writers didnt know how he was SUPPOSED to impact it.


does that make more sense? sorry i wrote that first topic post really late when i noticed this s**t xD
