Intriguing new character

I've been avidly watching Full Metal Alchemist from the beginning. It has a great story and great characters. I'm not a big fan of animé but this series has been excellent. This set of four episodes isn't as good as the preceding few but we find out a bit more about an intriguing new character so that just about saves it.

Still, every episode now, questions are being answered....but new questions are raised!

slow action

I cannot recommend this to anyone other than children. But even then, the stories are so dark and the violence so gratuitious that children should be spared them. Slow moving, tedious dialogue and childish storyline.
