Also, fun fact I haven't seen anyone else mention yet, but Slave 23/Hoenheim was actually voiced by Aaron Dismuke, who did the voice for Alphonse in the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime! I know you guys haven't seen that one, but it's kind of fun that when Aaron was young he had the higher voice for Alphonse and now as an adult with a more mature voice he was able to voice their dad xD

Hoenhiem came back from truth whole because all those lives from Xerxes were exchanged, but Ed had to give up his leg in exchange, like a payment to see thruth and come back. I think "Father" needed half the lives simply so he could create his new body and move out of the flask, because he can't survive out of the flask. The body is like his new flask

While I love episode 40 and I think that flashback is one of the more memorable moments of the show, I’ve come to love the writing of episode 41 so much after some reflection. The theme of episode 41 largely revolves around the conviction not to take lives that Ed and Al has. Miles calls it idealistic, and as a viewer it is hard to disagree with him, especially in the face of people like Kimblee. And the show doesn’t try to prove him wrong at all, in fact it reinforces it in the fight against Kimblee, where he himself points out the ‘stupidity’ of trying to spare the life of your enemies, and then hits Ed with a fatal wound. So the way of life that Ed’s chose was just naive idealism in the end? Well not exactly… even though his mercy nearly got him killed, it is the very same mercy that made the chimeras help him heal himself, and take him to a doctor. Not just that, but Kemblee’s ruthlessness assisted in the chimeras’ betrayal. There is more to mercy and ruthlessness than just the immediate fight in front of you, or even personal feelings. Ed may have chosen the more difficult path, and we do see that, but what he gains in return is outside help and the ability to make allies. The chimeras were dumbfounded that he asked for their help when they were just fighting each other, and his only response is “yeah..”. It is perfectly in character for Ed, because it is basically how he behaves towards everyone else all the time. It’s not like the writing of it is particularly complex, but it is so, so beautiful imo, and it works really well. Episode 41 might very well be my favorite episode due to this <3

Roy and Winry are never seen together. Maybe they’re the same person? Have you ever thought of that?
april 🍏
yeah. i think the manga was more specific and said that it was her uterus.

Oh dang I thought I edited my comment to remove that first part. I saw it afterwards! It always confuses me the way you guys take the episode off screen even when you’re not done watching the episode. 😂

We watched the one from episode 40 it was in the vid, but its good to know about those ones!
Tiga
So hype for coming episodes. So many moving pieces right now
Ben Martineau
Just making sure no one glosses over Mckay calling Hoenheim "LeBron Slave" 22:58 because I did just spit out my milk because that's the funniest thing I've ever heard LOL
Tiga
First watch I also connected it to Aang. I like that Ed and Al's refusal to kill is brought up throughout the show so we really get a feel for their conviction and morals
spring deerling
Even if Ed had found the stone before he used his own life force, he wouldn't have used it, he doesn't want to use other people's lives for himself
spring deerling
Ye, since it seems to be confined that Ed and Als spirits were intertwined like Ed theorized, Ed becoming close to death seemed to affect Alphonse, the bond between their souls, and Als bond to this world in general
Savannah
Thank you for the update!!! Hope Brig is feeling better
spring deerling
That's why it seems like philosophers stones bypass equivalent exchange. You're just supercharging a battery of energy preemptively so you can perform alchemy however you want whenever you want
spring deerling
On Ed being super staunch in his belief on not to kill anyone. I've actually seen people compare that to aang and his internal fight on what he should do regarding the fire lord. He just puts so much value in life itself and I think it's admirable
spring deerling
Yes brig! I'd say the homonculi being an extension of "father" is correct! And has a lot of meaning you can find later on! And I think brig saying "I've gained so much knowledge but do not feel enlightened at all" is how a lot of the characters in this show feel lol. The philosopher's stones in the homonculi come from "father" so we can assume that they are the souls of the citizen's of Xerxes, especially w envy confirming that the contorted bodies he's made out of are what were once the citizens of xerxes
Alex Ramirez
The organs Izumi lost when she committed human transmutation were her reproductive organs, it's not clear how much was taken. So she lost the ability to create another child in order to try to bring her baby back.
spring deerling
So a philosophers stone is made of souls, and souls are the fuel. The more fuel you have in the stone the longer it lasts, the more energy can be used by using up those souls. That's why the priests stone disintegrated, it ran out of energy, not because it was "fake". It's super weird when Ho apologizes before shoving his hand in izumi, but I think he was apologizing to the soul that was used in order to help her out. He's just like Ed and Al, he sees those people still as people, people he literally knew.
spring deerling
Idk if you noticed but the names hohenhiem called out after he woke up were the names he said before sticking his hand in his chest several episodes ago.
spring deerling
And when he did get a body the first thing that MF did was steal the clothing off the lifeless body of the king 😂.
spring deerling
The dwarf in the flask, or father, is not truth. But kind of made from essence of the void of knowledge and the blood that was taken from hohenhiem. We don't know the exact process because it was hohenhiems master that made it, but that is why it's so knowledgeable despite just being made and living in a flask. Imagine being hohenhiem, seeing the dead bodies of everyone he ever knew, cared aboutz respected. And if he listens he can hear all of them screaming in agony. And that little shit had the audacity to say "I think I'd be happy if I could just leave this flask" *LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER*
Ninjinzo
if u watch the first opening and the first scene in that opening you'll see it. Everyone thought it was ed
spring deerling
HOHENHIEM NEVER WANTED ANY OF THIS 😭 he would've been perfectly content living a normal quaint life, getting married and having children. Even with his shitty circumstances he found it but had to abandon it to be able protect them
spring deerling
When the author was writing the part of the manga where Ed got severely injured, she had recently given birth to her first child. She wanted to convey the pain she felt of what it was like to give birth and this we have that scene of Ed getting the metal pulled out of him. Olivier is a stone cold woman and seems super extra regarding mustang and her brother. But while it all has some truth to it, she's mainly being extra to make sure the brass doesn't try to use Alex against her or take him hostage like hawkeye. And I LOVE how they so easily communicate in code. Like they just get it, no confusion, complete trust between multiple people

With Brigs trip to the ER and the live action avatar coming thursday this week is a bit of a mixed bag with the schedule, but for those waiting for HoTD 2 Episodes will be posted thursday!
Mason Schutz
There’s going to be a good bit of them going forward. FAIR WARNING: Episode 42, 43, 44 all have post-credit scenes. Also watch the ED credits for episode 45 (it’s made specifically for the episode) which then goes back into a short post credit scene.

This explains why the boys have golden hair and eyes! We've seen winry and riza have blonde hair, but the boys specifically have a golden tone to theirs. Because they're the last of the people of Xerxes who all had those type of genes!
Savannah Balderas
Thanks for the upload boys!! I need the white Gek hoodie to go with my black one 🥲

With Xerxes being in the middle between Amestris and Xing, we now know that Father went west towards Amestris and Hohenheim went east towards Xing as the golden man as May says. Father, sought to spread his knowledge of alchemy and influence primarily in Amestris, which turns into a militaristic nation where alchemy is often used for destructive purposes. Hohenheim, on the other hand, travels to Xing and shares his knowledge, leading to a different approach to alchemy in that country, where it's focused more on medicinal and healing practices. I just thought this is a cool sort of mirroring between Father and Hohenheim how we see the nature of Xing and Amestris's alchemy is based off their own nature (idk if that makes sense).
