Finally finished Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

I've been watching anime for 5-6 yrs, and always ignored FMAB. I've give 2-3 attemps at it, but dropped after few episodes. This time i just kept at it. Now i've realized that some all time animes are all timers for a reason. After around 24 episodes, I started thinking how are they gonna keep up with such peak story for 40 more episodes, but it absolutely did keep up and even got better.

What an absolutely amazing anime. Fully deserving of being entryway anime for tons of people into the anime world. It will make you fall in love with anime.

Finished Golden Son, questioning my personality.

Absolutely amazingly mindbendingly excellent.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Darraw is not worthy of a being a main character in this book, too soft, too trustworthy.He is warned about jackal, still trusts him, gets betrayed. Pliny was a snake from his introduction, why do you trust him, kill him the first chance you get. You are working for billions of lives, few million sacrifices are inevitable. Kill the person who even evokes 0.01% of doubt to betray you.

Didn't like the fact that every time Darrow wins against an enemy, a friend betrays him and becomes his next enemy, very repetitive and annoying. Makes him look like a moron. In such a world, the mc should be scary and ruthless.

I really like Ragnar, but how could you not control your own dog while he kills your girl. Very unneccesary death. Could have used mustang's death someplace else.

When the sons of ares did such a good job while being contactless, then why does Darrow want to have constant communication from now on. You will get caught easily stupid.

Victra's death makes me sad. Only likeable girl so far. Was expecting more from he character throughout the story.

Sevro is such a wholesome character, I was worried all the time of him feeling mistreated by Darrow and betraying, but it turned out he will not ever betray.

This book has given me a very once in a lifetime experience. Will never forget it.

PIERCE BROWN YOU ROCK.
