Hello, everybody, it's your boy trapped in the body of armor, bruiser, Holden McNeely.

And it's me, your, hmm, oh, so many wonderful characters to choose from.

I know.

And it is I, your really buff bald man with a blonde mustache who has honored his family's

tradition and techniques for over a thousand generations.

Oh, look at these muscles. Girl, look at these muscles, bruiser. Jake, how you doing? And it's me, Mr. Frogpants! He's back! Oh, my God, he's back! He has risen! Wait a minute, Holden. You didn't use forbidden alchemy to bring him back. Potentially, well, oh my God! That was the one rule you weren't supposed to bring. Oh, fuck. He's going all inside out and goopie. Oh, my God. I can see my own flesh inside of my skin. Why did we meddle with the truth of equivalent exchange? And that confusing opening means that we are going to be talking about full metal alchemist.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's finally here.

Let's get started. Ready, steady, go.

I know this was a long time coming for a lot of people.

There's so much enthusiasm around this franchise.

We hope we do it justice. Holdenen this is the number one anime series according to

my anime list this is above uh hunter x hunter above steinsgate above uh jintama again wow

gintama fans really like to game the system uh above clenade above code gas above mob psycho 100

at that 9.23 rating on My Animat List.com, 10 years after it came out,

full metal alchemist is still the number one king. And it's maybe the most universally loved

animas of all time. And for this episode, you have to thank a patron named J. D. Roy.

J.D. Roy is a simple artist and writer with an inclination toward comics and graphic

novels.

And if people want to see some of his illustrations and hear him complain about his

current struggles with writing and developing his first graphic novel story, they can

follow him on Twitter.
