Since Xing is depicted as an Oriental country, my guess is the same. The old ninja also commented on not being able to sense Al's flow of energy when they chased him back in Rush Valley.Originally Posted by Ryllharu
It's interesting that they pinpointed Gluttony and kicked him in the face, but didn't notice Bradley until he spoke, suggesting that an aging Homunculus is structurally different from an immortal one.
Either that, or they were so fascinated with Gluttony's tongue they don't notice badassary until it hits them in the face.

I liked this episode a lot. But am irritated it didn't have more of King Bradely's battle. I've been dying all week to watch this for that fight and am slightly irritated I need to wait another week. grrrrr... But otherwise I like it greatly.
When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills
lol, so Scar was a monk? Explains all the God-speak he spouts out.

The Ishbalan war certainly was a pure ethnic cleansing. Quite a background for a few of our heroes. Maybe not the most common history for a major character if you think about it.
Good thing Winry didn't shoot. Although considering all the times she has wrenched Ed halfway to Hades, you'd think it wouldn't be beyond her either.
One thing I always like that they covered is that there is a considerable divide in the military about the Ishbal conflict. There are those State Alchemists who participated, but feel very guilty about it, but did it because it was their duty (Mustang, Armstrong), and there are those who enjoyed the killing a bit too much, became intoxicated with their power, and tend to abuse it (the one who we haven't really been formally introduced to, but all know).Originally Posted by Kraco
This episode was so-so. Most of the Scar-Winry stuff felt like recap to be honest. That probably stems from me watching the first series. The Xingese on the other hand, was the highlight of the episode for me, short as it was.
(Scar's martial arts in the flashback were totally badass though, if it was there before, I don't remember it.)
Ying comes off as a complete fool, but they hinted at his true ability a number of times with the way he would appear and disappear out of nowhere, showing some highly refined athletic ability. His viciousness in protecting Ran Fan and the teamwork they accomplished even with her unceremoniously tossed over his shoulder was quite pleasant. He has strong convictions about what a ruler should be, so even if his motives are...less than completely honorable, he has the makings of a very strong leader. It shows why Ran Fan and [the other guy] respect him so much.
This show never fails, ever.

very good episode (best in my opinion)
Scar slaughtering the Rockbells was really well made and so was the part when winry came in and Scar realized what he was doing.
well actually all scenes were good but I expected to see more from bradley and co.
btw, scar's brother is such a kabuto!
Nice to know someone else was thinking the exact same thing hahaOriginally Posted by KrayZ33
This episode was fantastic... Scar, even if he killed Winry's parents, is seriously one of my favourite characters. Too bad he didn't fight more with Gluttony, who finally lost it.
Lan Fan went up on the coolness meter as well.
I enjoyed this episode greatly. I liked the homunculus all being known know, I now am wondering why the Fuhrer was with WInry. Can't wait for next week.

He probably planted a bomb in her so when the Fuhrer is cornered by Ed and Al, escape plan!
Yeah, I'm glad that they found out about Bradley. I was waiting for that to happen.Originally Posted by Cal_kashi
I felt really bad for Lan Fan. She looked so pitiful lying there after the doctor fixed her up
The little panda girl surprised me. She made that transmutation circle at super fast speed and got Scar and herself out of there safely. It was nice to see that she can do other things beside just healing. I'm hoping that Scar keeps her around. She seems like she could be pretty useful.
I think Lin was the star of this episode. He got to be really badass. As far as I am concerned, a grenade down the throat and other feats of strength puts him on equal footing with Scar and Mustang.
While I feel bad for Lan Fan, she had the determination to do it, and if she is getting referred to Winry at Rush Valley, she'll probably be more than fine. I think I actually felt more bad for that dog that had her arm strapped to it, it looked so pathetic.
Bradley was pretty bad ass during the arm scene. "Well played"
So what is the intelligence situation at the moment? It seems that only Lin and his party know about Bradley (unless I missed somebody else who saw him fight). Presumably Lin will tell Hawkeye, and get that information to Mustang. But Bradley seems to have the upper hand right now.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
Great episode, I love the Xingese people. I feel bad for the doctor though - not only did they tell him about homunculus, he also knows about Bradley now. Quite a mess they've dragged him into.
@poopdeville: What do you mean? Lin already told them about Bradley.
