Around his waist and left shoulder, Barry sports a brown tunic with fur trims, which is tied together by a black leather belt with two dangling rings of iron. His chest is formed out of two large metal plates held together by an iron ring, in turn, held in place by five leather belts. The feet are a pair of leather boots with iron guards. The middle, ring and little fingers are fused together, leaving his index and thumb separate. His hands are a pair of iron gauntlets, each having a pair of four spikes instead of knuckles and fingers made of cloth. His upper arms and legs are comprised out of several long, silver-colored iron plates, while his lower arms are made out of a pair of two plates tied together. 5.1 Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood / MangaĪs a suit of armor, Barry stands out due to his hulking size and overall grim physical traits.(Chalk it up to remnants of my abandoned Christian faith. And anyways, I think it's more admirable for a character to overcome his flaws than for a character to not have flaws in the first place. While Brotherhood Ed's opinion is certainly admirable, I believe 2003 Ed's view is the more realistic for his time period. Contrast this with Brotherhood Ed, who just says "I think we should be equal" to an Ishvallan character and sweeps the issue under the rug. He is even called out by an Ishvallan for this.Ģ003 Edward is (by Amestris' standards) very liberal in his opinion towards the Ishval people and their situation, but his opinion is still problematic in a way. Edward initially believes that the Ishval people are too ignorant to use alchemy, which is evident when he expresses surprise at their own "Great Art". Although his racism is not as explicitly expressed as some other characters, in his own way he is still racist. He puts his life and his job on the line to save his brother! His love for his brother was made very, very explicit (no, not like that) in that episode, something which didn't really happen until the end in Brotherhood.Īnother thing I like is how Edward's opinion of the Ishval people develops throughout the 2003 series. Why? In the 2003 show, Edward risks his neck to save Al. In fact, I think it's one of the best episodes of Brotherhood.īut 2003 did it better. For example, when Alphonse was worried that he might be a robot in the episode after Lab 5? In Brotherhood they just had a big fight and then made up. I liked Ed better in the 2003 show because he was a more flawed and human character.

I think Edward Elric was a better character in the 2003 series than in Brotherhood.
