huh. saw the commercial and didn't realize it was a new one, but thought that it almost surely answered the question about where the remake will start. looks like it will start from the very beginning.
edit. really people... i'd have thought i could bump this thread...
My thoughts: A new Winry is fine with me. The old one doesn't stick out in my head as having done a particularly notable job, and she does get a good amount of screen time. The guy who did Roy the first time was pretty good, but the guy replacing him is Miki Shinichiro! He did excellent work in a slightly similair role in Last Exile, he was one of the only good things about the Black Cat anime adaptation, and he was also Lockon and Urahara!
Fujiwara Keiji is made of gold, and the only bad thing about him retaining the role of Hughes is that he doesn't get to have a bigger role!
Miyake Kenta does a pretty good "Big Man!" rumbling voice, but I don't know if he'll be able to pull off the brooding Scar.
They brought in a big name star to play the role of the sexy Envy, but I'm not very familair with her work... She's doing a decent job as Kati in Gundam00 now, but Detective Conan is still on-going, so...
edit - oh, wait, she was Dilandau? Damn. Alright, it'll be fine then.
I was never, ever, ever a big fan of Yoshino Hiroyuki, but he's slowly winning me over after doing some pretty good work in Chaos;Head (Takumi) and Tytania (Idris). He's playing Kimblee, so he better not fuck it up! (and the writers better not fuck up his character like they did in the first anime...)
also:
Hawkeye will be played be Rukia/Shirely (Geass) / Meyrin (that which shall not be named) / Pacifica Cassull (Scrapped Princess) / Kaaya (Tower of) 's VA
Bradley's voice actor will be back, which I like.
Lust's VA is a seasoned vet who was also Kasumi Tendou in Ranma, Belldandy, Aina in 08th MS Team, Maria in Gungrave and Uraha in Air, along with about 40 other roles.
All in all, should this report hold true, i'm pretty psyched.

Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

well, there it is. if you know what this means, you know what this means. i am now seriously fucking psyched for this.
also, i'd like to propose that at this point anything that is "manga only" be officially considered 'spoiler material' for this anime series.

Haven't read the manga but this one seems pretty good. I loved the other version but it seems everyone is psyched. Is that supposed to be Hohenhime? in the middle?

Add FMA: Brotherhood to the list of "streamable anime".
Good to hear us Australians took the initiative this time. Hoping it's a sign for better things to come:

I'll say this now, when this start I don't want any discussion from the manga OR the old anime. It will be considered spoilers. So the spoiler rules are in place and only discussion about episodes that have been fansubbed in this particular series will be allowed.
From the old series:
http://www.hagaren.jp/In this world, there exist people with special abilities to manipulate objects and transform those objects into other objects. These people are known as alchemist. However, this manipulation process does not come without cost, as the basic alchemy rules stated that something with equivalent cost is needed to perform the manipulation.
The main character is a famous alchemist named Edward Elric, who loses his little brother Alphonse in an accident. Edward manages to contain his brother's soul in a large piece of armor suit. But by doing so Edward loses his arm and leg, so now they are on a journey to regain their original bodies.

Nice. Does anyone remember which other groups was onto this? Menclave rings a bell I think, perhaps gg/qq too, but I can't confirm anymore since FansubWiki removed it (following licensing by Madman/FUNimation).

VinSubs have also released Episode 01 (H264).
Fullmetal Alchemist - Brotherhood - Shinsen Subs - Episode 01 - mkv - direct download
might we consider moving these posts to the Series en Fuego section?

My understanding of how things work now is that threads get moved to en Fuego when newer episodic threads are made. (ie, this thread goes to SEF {after an appropriate title is given} when FMA2: ep2 comes out)
Or do you mean a FMA2: Brotherhood Release Info thread?
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Actually a new thread might have been as well made for the episode 1. However, you can hardly blame anybody for not doing it, since it's not that official yet FMA is going to be an En Fuego series.
Aside from that, it was a decent start. Lots of action for sure, for just one episode. I was never the greatest fan of FMA, though, and so my impressions are doomed to be negatively biased, but nevertheless I wasn't disappointed. It'll be interesting to see this till the end (especially since I haven't read the manga and thus I'm not familiar with the end).
It was pretty good, and as it turns out, I've actually forgotten nearly everything but the names (and VAs) from the old series.
I know they've changed a lot of the cast around, but the only things I found a little odd were Rie Kugimiya as Alphonse and Fumiko Orikasa as Riza.
I was really used to the image in my head of Riza voiced by Michiko Neya. Melissa Mao (FMP!), Miss Deep (R.O.D) and Riza Hawkeye all sounding the same just seems right in the world. On the other hand, we have Shirley (Code Geass), Kaaya (Druaga), Rukia (Bleach), and Pacifica (Scrapped Princess). Not particularly a set of characters that exude the levels of confidence that Riza has when she's just standing there. Sure, she's done other characters that do fit that profile, but either recent or stand out roles hold more sway.
As for Rie Kugimiya, it just sounded a little off. Al sounded way more girly than ever before. It's been so long since she played any major male characters that maybe she's out of practice?
The OP was ok, but it didn't have the old FMA feel that the old OPs had.
Meh, didn't really like Mustang's new VA. His VA (Urahara of Bleach and Takumi of Initial D), just seems too sly. I don't much like Kimblee's new VA either, never really liked him that much either, tbh.
edit: Edited out the spoilers I guess.

They are probably going to have some anime original material at the start. The first 20 or so ep of the first FMA anime follow the manga so it would be repetitive for fans to watch those parts again. We're most likely going to get a bit of background story and then head straight into where the first series left off.
I can't get Shinsen's to download. Anyone else having this particular problem?
