Important Locations: Yock Island, Dublith
Synopsis: The boy who has the right arm and the left leg that Ed lost is known as Wrath. He is the result of Izumi failing in human transmutation. Created as a Homunculous. Wrath desires to become human, and in order to do so, he attacks Ed to deprive him of his entire body.
Side Note
Quite odd. So Yoki's head puncture is kept intact, especially when he has blood flow coming out. But when Scar uses his arm against anyone, the scenes end up getting cut out. FUNimation needs to learn that they're fully capable of keeping things consistant. Though I'm not complaining. At least they kept Yoki's death intact.
Dialogue Note
Everytime Dante's been mentioned by Greed, before we even see her, he immediately refers to Dante as "her" or "old woman" or "she." Originally, he refers to her as "that person" to build up the suspense on who in the world he's refering to.
Video Edit
After a while now, the Fullmetal Alchemist logo has been correctly placed. On the return from the commercial break, the logo is on the same side as before the break. In the original, it was in the same lower corner, only on the opposite side on the return.
Mispronounciation
Lyra's name is constantly mispronounced as Lee-rah. It's supposed to be pronounced as it's spelled, Lie-rah. I'll be adding this to the General Edits list.
Thoughts
I really liked this episode. Not just the original, but the dub. Aaron Dismuke has really shined since he first started as Alphonse. His acting's top notch and very believable. Wrath's become very easy to adjust to in this episode. Dante sounds quite convincing as an old woman. I'm still wondering why Martel sounds so much younger than she looks and is. The voice is cute, but not exactly fitting since she's a woman, not a girl. Overall, great voice acting on the episode's dub and 100% uncut and uncensored. Suprisingly due to the amount of blood in the episode.
