Thread: Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood

I just watched the first 5 episodes of Brotherhood, should I go back and watch the original (if so, up to which exact episode?) before continuing? It seems like a great series so far.

Yeah you want to watch the original until the end of the Greed story arc which I believe is season 3, episode 9: Theory of Avarice. This will provide you much more epicness that's missing from the beginning of Brotherhood.

So once I watch all those episodes of the original FMA, I watch all of Brotherhood right? There won't be too many repeat episodes, will there? eg. Episodes 1 and 2 of the original = episode 3 of Brotherhood.

Also, once I've watched Brotherhood, what will the second half of the original be like? Will there be overlapping or is it another storyline altogether?

The second half of the original is a whole other story.
