Recently my daughter, 14, has gotten into the manga “The Fullmetal Alchemist” & the accompanying anime “The Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood”. Well I have been watching the anime with her and I’m actually enjoying it! (I never thought I would ever watch anime, nevermind like it) It’s full of alchemy and alkahestry, homonculi and chimaeras. Basically 14 and I are escaping together. 16 recently came home while we were watching it and has started the series also but she is roughly a season behind us. We will watch with her too, it’s amazing how much I missed the first time around.
Also on a completely unrelated note, I have noticed my new trend is to double my days up. Posting every second day is so much easier.

I must admit, anime’s something I’ve never watched but have always wondered about. Maybe I should give it a try.

Trying won’t hurt. Either you’ll like it or you won’t, but you’ll never know if you don’t try it. 😛

It is a great anime! I watched the anime whenever it was available on TV. Thanks for the reminder, I think I ought to go back to the manga or anime and follow through the things I have missed. 😀

Oh yeah, I’ve watched that before. You know, call me a cougar, but Edward’s metal arm is kind of sexy!
